Hope

[Ollie]

So here I was. The moment of truth. Taking my final ciggarette, before I'd be exposed to the family courts for (hopefully) the last time.


"Please," I muttered under my tobacco-filled breath. "Please go in my favor. All I want is the best for Cherry."
I soon drove off with Zach to bring my little girl home.

Thankfully, after hours upon hours of detailing absolutely everything revolving around every aspect of Cherry's life, even the most unnecessary of details, arguments back and forth broke out until finally a decision was made.


I came home with a lucky result. Cherry was to stay with me until her teenage years, by when she shall have decided by herself who takes custody of herself and how.



Morning arose with an average snowy day.

I did my best to adore and care for my only child. I wanted to make sure that she'd age up to a teenager, making the right decision to stay with me, there's no way I could let her live with her wretched father.



I tried to encourage Cherry to start building up her skills, I helped her out with a little bit of cooking for fun, I would do anything to spend time with her.



I would often help Cherry out with her homework before reading her a bedtime story to sleep.





Zach appeared to be having an interesting time at work, informing me of how he had to chase after gnomes, which I thought was quite humourous.



I began feeling slightly ill. I was thinking about maybe having a second child, but I wasn't too sure if I wanted it. Zach and I did give it a try, but I'm starting to fear.



My train of thought was interrupted by a knock at the door.


"Just a minute," I yelled.

Two well-dressed men stand at the door.



One seemed angry and impowering, he was not one to be messed with.



The other looked innocent and ambitious, looking around in a curious manner.



As I opened the door, both men shoved their way in.


"My name is Detective Gerald Sanders and the is Detective Robert Mayfield, we have a search warrant in relation to the murder of Jamie Hope- your mother, I believe," The older looking man informed.

I just stood there in silence and watched on.

Sorry for the long time no update.
Hope is still well alive and I have some juicy plans for the future.
