Chapter Two: Hundred & Eighteen: Past: Present: The Proceedings

They stared at me with shock but the judge's face was filled with curiosity. Unico could read her as clearly as a new day, clear weather, and warm summer. No signs of rain or surprises, just a clear breeze and sunny day. The type that everyone would hope to have every day. 

The judge looked at her and asked, "May I ask why did you do it?", "I was a madwoman." I laughed "I was a mad wife, I am a bad mother…" she stopped, she's a bad mother… "Mother? Where is your child?" "I don't know…" I whispered as I thought of my child, tears falling, regret trying to ink itself onto my heart like a new tattoo.

"Any last words?" The judge asked after a moment, giving me a look of remorse but being stern in her formalities. Unico wondered to herself if going down for life was something that she was ready to do or would she rather try to plea for her life. She wondered if getting out after a while would help her change or would she regret anything.
