Bound Forever

Jane had locked herself in the bathroom for three days now. Since Raymond died three years ago, she hasn’t had food to eat nor water to drink.

She just turned on the shower each day, cries, and then turns it off again, repeatedly for three days. She blames herself and thinks it’s her fault but I blame myself more because all this happened because of me.

If I had just not given her the idea. if I hadn’t made her call him or ask him about it, he would still be alive and he and Jane would still be so happy but no I had to go in between them and ruin what they had with my stupid sob story.  

” Jane ” I called and I rested my head against the bathroom door with my eyes shut. She doesn’t say anything like usual. ”Jane I’m sorry, it’s all my fault I know” I continued but still nothing, just silence. 

” I’m sorry about Raymond please Jane come out I’m really worried about you. I shouldn’t have come to you for help. You shouldn’t have accepted to help me” I said crying.

” I’m sorry please come out at least and give me any reaction. Be mad at me , Hate me Jane but please stop punishing yourself”. I begged. “I promise not to give the video to the police officers then, I won’t give the video out. I would delete it ” I said and she opened the bathroom door with force.  

Her body was wet and she was still in the clothes she had worn three days ago when we heard about Raymond’s death. her eyes were bloodshot and sleep-deprived it looked thinner. The scene made me burst into tears again as I stared at her figure and how she looked. 

” Oh my God Jane ” I cried out with my hands on my lips. ”Did I hear you just say that you won’t give the video out to the police officers?” she whispered. ” No I won’t give them”.

” How could I give the video out when this happened. Jane, I killed a nice and innocent man. How do I give you again? ” I cried out, immediately she slapped me hard across the face. I stumbled backward holding my left cheek as it stung so hard due to the force and the impact of the slap.  

” Why did you? yeah I know I deserved it Jane please keep on inflicting pain on me ” I said with tears dripping down my face. 

” You idiot, do you think I slapped you because you killed Ray? You didn’t kill him. Hell, Daniella did you just meet me. I didn’t slap you because of Ray’s death, I slapped you because you deserved to be slapped. ” she said, I just listened not uttering a word.

” I know and I’m not complaining, I deserved to be slapped, even beaten. Do more to me please, because I took the only person you loved away from you. I took Raymond from you , I am to be punished for it. Jane if I could go back in time, I would have avoided going to Raymond. ” I said.

” Do you think Raymond would be happy with this decision you just made, he risked his life to get this evidence? He died to get you this proof to get your dad out of prison and to put the right culprit behind bars so how dare you open your lips to say you won’t give the video out? ” she asked yelling at me with anger.  

” You don’t have the right to decide what to do with the video anymore Daniella, that’s someone’s life. The hell that’s Raymond’s life so you had better get into that bathroom and take your bath and best be on your way to the police station because if something happens to that video and you don’t give it out as evidence and clear your father’s name I will never forgive you ” she yelled and then left the room angrily.  

What the hell was I thinking when I said I wouldn’t give the video out. I suffered and I did all I could to get the video. Ray had offered to help and he did a dangerous job too. He even lost his life just to help me, Jane lost her fiance and they had only just got back together now.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

So much had been sacrificed for this little piece of evidence, for this video and how could I say I wouldn’t give it out. Jane was fucking right, I had to put Danovo and Julian behind bars, they have to pay for what they have done and for all the deaths of the people they had killed including Raymond. I had to get my father out of prison and back home. 

And most of all I have to show Draco that I never lied to him in the first place. I had to show him that I was telling the truth when I told him that his brother killed their father and Cassy and Jessica and now Raymond. too many deaths are on him and I just can’t stand by and watch and not do anything. 

I took off all my clothes quickly, then I got into the bathroom to shower. After taking my bath, I put on my jean trousers and a blue round neck top, then I quickly copied the video into a flash drive before dropping it into my bag. I also backed up the video on my phone just in case anything happened before leaving the room.  

Today, I am going to set everything right and next week at the court hearing when the judge is going to give his judgment, my dad is going to be declared innocent and I will be free from all this. It will soon be over and we will all be reunited and happy. 

” Can I see my father now? ” I asked the man, a police officer who I met at the table as I got to the police station. He was in charge of the prison ward.

” It’s not time for visiting hours yet, it’s too early for that so I’m afraid that you cannot see him,” he said and looked away.

” I know it’s not time for visiting hours yet but I have something important to discuss with him. I promise I won’t take much of your time please ” I tried to plead with the police officer.

” We were given strong order from the judge not to let any of the prisoners accept visitors since it’s close to the last court hearing where they would be given their judgments but still the only time you can be allowed to see him is during visiting hours ma’am,” he said.

” Okay I know and I understood everything you have just said but still I need to see him, its very important please. You can come with me because it’s urgent. I will make it so quick that you wouldn’t even know that I was here ” I said.

” Fine but I don’t want you to take so much time. This is a risk I’m taking, because if they find out I let you see him, it might cost me my job so please be quick just like you promised to” he said.

” Yes thank you I promise, ” I said and smiled and then he stood up from his chair and then grabbed the bunch of keys by the door before going out of his office. I followed him quietly from behind, not saying a word. 

Soon as we got to the prison wards, he went into my father’s cell and then brought him back to me in handcuffs.  

” You have just twenty minutes to talk to him. Anything longer than that will not be allowed, do you hear me?” the man asked.

” Yes thank you so much,” I said, and then I helped dad sit at the table since his legs and hands were in handcuffs. 

” Dad ” I cried out as I saw the situation he was in. he looked so old and he needed a haircut. 

” How are you, why did you come here again today? ” he asked me with a frown. 

” Why would you even say that, would you let me be all alone if I were in this crappy place dad, you wouldn’t so why shouldn’t I do the same to you. ” I said  

” I don’t like you seeing me this way. Why don’t you stay away from the courtroom next week during the hearing ” he said suggesting.  

” I will be present dad because I have good news for you and you will be free from this place,” I said smiling as tears fell from my eyes. 

” What do you mean by that Daniella, what did you find out?” he asked holding my hands. 

” Dad I found evidence dad, I’m going to get you out of here,” I said, leaping unto him.
