Care For Her.

She was silent all through the car ride to his place. He kept stealing, glancing to her side, noticing how she clenched her fists to hide her trembling hands, her head down with her hair covering most of her face.

He gritted his teeth in anger; if he had come earlier, then it would not have happened this way.

The driver came to a stop, announcing they were home. He stepped out, walking around to her side to help her out, but she stumbled out, taking his hand.

"You okay ?"

She nodded not saying a word.

He led her inside his home.

.....

Joe walked into the station, "Morning, Mr. Adams", said the officer.

"Where is he ?" He asked.

"Right this way, he's not said a single word since they got him here ", explained the officer.

"And his family, any reaction?"

"A lawyer did come but left soon after he found out who had pressed charges on his client ".

Joe scoffed.

"His name still scares people "

They walked into the interrogation room with Tom inside.

No matter how much the officer spoke to him he didn't respond.

Joe sighed, "deliver him to this place this evening as soon as possible "

The officer nodded taking the card from him.

As he walked out, he noticed a couple asking questions about Tom and Revena's case, which made him stop.

"Excuse me, why are you asking about my client's case ?" he asked.

Sammy blinked, gazing at him in confusion.

"Client ?" asked Harold.

"Revena...."

Sammy stopped, getting up, "Did Mr. Declor send you ?".

Joe nodded.

"That means you're a good lawyer ..so please make that bastard pay for what he did to her. My best friend doesn't deserve any of the things he did to her " she cried.

Joe nodded.

"I intend to do so "

"Thank you " she smiled.

"Please excuse me " Joe moved back, ready to leave, but Sammy grabbed his hand.

"I tried calling her but got no answer and I can't go visit her, so how is she ?" she asked.

Joe put on his warm smile as he answered her, "My best friend is taking care of her so trust me she is in good hands "

Sammy nodded letting him go.

"Can you tell her I love her and am sorry I wasn't there for her"

"I will "

A few minutes later Joe got to Ramiel's home.

He was in his study working.

"How did it go ?".

"He won't say anything, and is it me, or did you smell it too..on him?" Joe asked.

"I did; his father called me an hour ago," said Ramiel.

"Oh ...so they know what he did ?".

"His son broke the rules, so he needs to be punished "That is what his father said ".

Joe took a seat chuckling.

"He gave up so easily "

"He has to pay for what he did," said Ramiel.

"I agree with you, but you know they are going to ask you why you're supporting her ?" said Joe.

Ramiel fell silent.

"She is just a common human, not involved at all in our world".

"The moment he attacked her she got involved ".

"Okay, yes, that is true, but you're not the one who has to be doing this", said Joe.

Joe watched his friend's face as he spoke.

"You know the rules, apart from family and a loved one . The highest of our kind can never intervene in such matters ".

Ramiel looked back at him.

"But I care for her ".

"You and I know that isn't enough, and you have never intervened in such matters, so if you do now. Everyone, and I mean everyone, would want to know why. And that will mean exposure of Revena to our kind ".

"That isn't good ", Ramiel pointed.

"Exactly and with no clear title as to who she is to you. Then it might harm her too"

A knock came at the door interrupting them.

"Ahhh, Ramiel are you there ?" It was her, Revena.

"Come in " he was already rushing to the door as it opened.

She walked in taking his offered hand.

"You shouldn't be up ".

She smiled at Joe and then back at Ramiel.

"You realise I am not sick, just a few bruises ", she let out.

"You didn't sleep much last night ", he said, taking her to sit down.

"I told her not to tell you " she muttered.

"They work for me so they can't hide anything from me " he was sitting down next to her.

She smiled back at him.

"Am sorry, did I interrupt your meeting?" she asked, looking back at Joe.

"Not really; I just came to inform him about how the case is going ", said Joe.

"Case ?".

"Mmmm, about what happened ?" Said Ramiel.

She blinked, "but I....".
