In the year 2005 a family of 3 was driving in a small car. The father stopped at the red light,saw and waited for it to turn. As he drove by a fancy looking SUV crashed againts it at full speed. Father died immediately after the impact and the mother and son were unconscious.
The boy wakes up and starts yelling and panicking,yelling:
Where am I! Wheres my mom!
The nurses suppress the boy and calm him down. The boy repeats:
W-Wheres my mommy?
The nurses look at the boy and looked at him with sympathy,the boy stares back shocked. The a woman out of the blue says:
Kid,please......follow me....
The boy and the woman walk down the hallway,but,the boy falls,the woman says:
Looks like you're in no condition to stand. I'll take you back.
The boy abruptly responds:
No!I can walk!I have to see my mom and dad!
The woman explains what happened to the boys father,the boy shocked,slowly closes his eyes and says:
And what about my mom......
The woman explains to the boy that the mom survived,but then the boy,again,abruptly interrupted the woman:
She is! Take me to her! I have to see my mom!
The woman lifts the boy up and carries him to the mothers room,but the boy says,as if the life had been stolen from his body:
Why is mom like that....
The mother,protecting her child,shielded him from the impact,but in turn suffered greater wounds.
She will have no chance of surviving the night:
It's ok mommy...I'll stay with you....you-y-you....
The boys spirit broken,stutters:
I-I'll stay with you-you...It's o-ok......
He holds his mothers hand and waits hours saying:
I love you mom,I love you mom!
And at the end of midnight,the mother dies,and without saying a word,he olds her hand for hours....
The woman grabs him and pulls him away saying:
You're bleeding!
The boy passes out from having to ensure that pain of both the injuries,and having to loose the only person he had left.The boy wakes up,and sees the woman who turns her head away as she says:
The man that did this....he was a drunk driver,and all he did was leave a note,maybe if he had called 911,your mom might have lived. I know,but we can't let him roam free,we need you to testify in any way possible.
Te boy stares soullessly at the woman,and nod's yes.
At the courthouse the woman represents the boy againts the drunk driver and presents all evidence possible to bring him down,all that was left was the boy to testify. Luckily the boy had one,precise look out the window before the accident and memorized the license plate,ironic,the most terrifying and horrible moment of his life turned out to be his most helpful one:
The license plate was .....and the man driving was him.
The court murmured in astonishment on how the boy memorized the whole license plate,and as the trial reached a verdict,the real astonishment began:
I declare..... Not Guilty!
The boy stares blankly at the judge as the woman yells in fury:
OBJECTION!!You're honor,how can you reach that verdict we had undeniable evidence on him!
Crowd:YEAH!
We demand justice!
What is going on here!
The judge bangs his gavel,and states:
Silence!Order in the court!If there is another outbreak like that ever again, I'll hold everyone ere in contempt!
As the trial was over the boy dares stunned at the driver who was let free.
Hours later in the hospital,the woman comes by to explain what happened:
The judge was paid off... I'm sorry.... I truly am....
The boy stares at her,crushed,and unwilling,a pause in the room goes on,till the woman stands and says:
Do you have anywhere to go from here?
The boy nods no,and then:
Hmm.Ok then. I'll take you in...
It'll be nice to have a kid,and in turn,I'll help you get justice, but by doing so,you must abide by some rules.
Everyday,you'll have to listen closely to everything I say,and do your best to remember.
You must also speak with utmost honesty,to have something to make you better than the people out there.
And finally.....and I know this is hard for you,but...whatever you do,don't seek vengeance,don't hate,just be the person you were before this happened.Seek not malice,but....Justice!
The boys eyes regain some emotion as the woman says those words...the feeling he got,is unlike anything his mind can describe and he says:
Who are you?
The woman stares back and replies:
I'm a lawyer of justice! And you?
I'm....I'm....
