Consequences And Court Appearances For My Actions

Rochelles POV

The last few days have been really stressful between my parents constantly fighting and me having to meet with a lawyer to discus my case before I go to court. My brother and sisters know what is going on because my parents told them. I have been cooking and cleaning around the house. I also have been walking the neighbors dog which is my normal job but I had to do it without pay. I believe that my parents are not fighting over what I did so I wonder what they are fighting about. My parents did get a really good lawyer for me. She has told me that she strongly believes that the court will only give me community service. I have to come up with what I am going to say in court. I am walking into her office to meet with her again today and this time only my mom is with me.

"So have you typed up a statement stating what you are going to say in court?" My lawyer asked

"Yes, I have it right here with me." I said

"Can you read it to me?" My lawyer asked

"yes" I said

I read my statement to her. I talked about how I made a mistake and I was willing to accept any consequences that came with it. I also talked about how I was a good student in school and how I had not had any prior court appearances.

"That sounds really good, did anyone help you write it?" She asked me

"Yes, my mom helped me with it." I said

"That is good, I am glad that your parents are helping you. Do you have any more questions for me?" She said

"Yes, What could I do for my community service?" I asked

"You can chose from a list of things like tutoring kids that are having trouble in school, volunteering at the animal shelter, cleaning up the trash from parks and roadways, or working on the community gardens around town. That will all be arranged after you appear in court and the judge decides your case. Did that answer your question?" She said

"Yes, Thank you for meeting with me today." I said

Then my mom and I walked out of her office and walked back to my moms car. When I got in her car I decided to thank her for helping write my statement.

"Thank you for helping me write my statement." I said

"I wanted to help you with it so it was no problem." Mom said

"Are you and dad fighting about me or is it something else?" I asked

"It is something else but we do not want you to worry about that right now." Mom told me

"What is it that you are fighting about? I want to know what is going on because you and dad never used to fight." I said

"I hate that we are fighting but I cant tell you. If you want to know ask your dad maybe he will tell you. Mom said

When we got home I did some of my homework. It was hard to do the work because I had to teach myself from the books. I am good in school and have mostly all A's and B's but I am am used to my teachers teaching me what to do before I have to do the work on my own. A few hours later my dad came home from work and I wanted to ask him what was going on with him and mom.

"How is all the homework going?" He asked me

"Not good." I said

"You are really good at school so it should'nt be that hard." He said
