Remember Me?

Alysha hugged my shoulders.
"You did great. I think we won this." She says and I smile. Im glad I had some woman support.
"Hey, you were brave up there". Bryan said.
"I didn't want to answer the questions.." I said, my voice cracking. "It was too personal."
"Alia..." I look at Joel, he walks up to me. Bryan puts his arm my waist and holds me close. "I want to tell you that I'm impressed by the fact you know how to lie perfectly well."
"I wasn't lying. All I told was the truth."
"Truth? You made me seem like a bad guy."
"Because you are.. If you really care about me, you'll let me be." He grab my wrist. "You're hurting me." Bryan pushes him. "Hey, leave her alone." He said.
"Look big guy, your tattoos and body image don't scare me." "Leave Alia alone. Just go with someone who want to listen to your bullshit."
"No... Alia, go in there and tell them that you lied. Lied about everything. You never tried to commit suicide at my house." "You're so blind Joel." I lift up my sleeves, and point to my scar, going from my elbow to mid-forearm. "This is it... Remember the blood stain? I said it was my period blood. I lied there. You don't get it, do you?" He stares at my scar.
"I can't believe it, I had a cutter as a daughter. What a disgust." My dad was behind him. He heard what Joel said. "I thought you were a normal girl, now I understand why you love your father. Your just like him, one helpless little druggie trying to fit in this world." My hand met his cheek, for the very first time.
"He's my father, my biological father. I always loved him, even if I didn't show it as much. And if I'm just a druggie to you, then you let me go. I'm not trying to fit in this shitty world. Why would I want to be someone like you?" He rolls his eyes and walks away. The hour went by slow, I was getting really anxious on knowing the results. I needed to know.
"COURT IN SESSION!" They yelled and as we made our way inside. I sat down next to my dad and he wrapped his arm around my shoulder.
"No matter what..."
"I'm staying with you." I finished the sentence for him. "I don't care, I'm always going to be next to you dad." He smiles and kisses my temple.
"The verdict please." The judge says.

"In the case for the custody of 19 year old, Alia Micelle. Mr.Michael Fuentes and Ms. Alysha Nett have full custody." My dad smiles widely. holy shit.
So technically, Alysha's my mom!
"Mr.Joel Boston is going to receive 4 years in prison for lying in court and trying to buy his success to the judge. He has the order to quit his job as bus driver and can not get close to Alia or her family. This is the verdict." The security handcuffs Joel and take him away. I hug my dad as hard as I could and smiled
"I'm forever yours daddy." I said in his ear.
"My little star... You belong to me and me only." We get up and held hands. I walk up to Alysha and gave her a hug.
"Alia.. I know the verdict says I have custody for you.. But I have one thing for you."
"What?"
"I will never take the position of your mother, in other words.. You don't have to call me mom.i just had to put my name in the papers so they could know that he was serious on having you back."
"Are you kidding me? Of course I'm not going to go with that. Fuck it, your my 'adoptive' mom, Alysha. It's your choice if you want a rebel daughter."
"We both can go in our adventures." She says and links her arms with mine. "We'll drive your dad crazy." She whispers and I chuckle. "And trust me, we'll be more like best friends." "Ladies.. Don't make evil plans." Bryan said, wrapping his arm around my waist. "Don't drive the old man crazy."
"Who you calling crazy, Bryan? You has to have some respect for MikeyWhiskeyHands man." My dad says.
"I think we're all a little crazy here." I said .
"You really think so?" Alysha says
. "I know so."
"Then if we're crazy, let's go get some drinks and celebrate this success. I'll call up Penny! It's a full celebration party!" I nod and the four of us made our way to a near by Bar.. We had to celebrate our victory with a couple of tequila and whiskey shots.


CHEERS BITCHES!
