《Finally》(15)
Advertisement
I wake up on the day of the custody hearing. I need to get ready and dressed accordingly. I put on my fancy clothes and curl my hair. I pin it back and do natural make up. I go out and see Tom in a suit. He walks over to me. "Baby... you have me. The judge will see that you have help with Dee. Me, you, mum, dad, Harry, Sam and Paddy. The judge would be mad to give custody to Karl" said Tom. We have breakfast. Lili walks in. "Good luck" said Lilli. We leave and once we arrive Jim is there. "Natalie had our baby, Nick Ryan Hayes" said Jim. "Congrats!" said Clara and Tom. We go in and we sit down.
Karl comes in with his lawyer an they sit down. I take Tom's hand. The judge walks in and we rise. "We're here for the custody over Daisy Mae Fisher" said Judge Jodie. She calls for Karl to go to the stand. I sit and grip Tom's hand. "So how long did you and Miss Clara Fisher date?" asked Judge Jodie. "We dated for around 3 years" said Karl. "How did you react when she told you about her pregnancy" said Judge Jodie. "I was shocked, of course and I left to get something for the baby but by the time I got back she was gone" said Karl. I gasp. The judge continues and I just.... his a liar. It's my turn.
"What happened when you found out about Daisy and left him?" asked Judge Jodie. "I found out I was pregnant and Karl told me he never wanted a baby and didn't want Daisy, so he broke up with me. My parents kicked me out for getting pregnant. I luckily stayed with some friends and they helped with my daughter as much as they could. When Daisy was born I didn't put Karl on the birth cert since I did not want him to have rights over her since he did not want my daughter" said Clara. "Do you have support now?" asked Judge Jodie. "I do. I live with my boyfriend Tom and his family help out. My friends that I stayed with help too but with them just having a baby, I won't be asking them much because of their new born but other than that I have support all around to help me and Daisy" said Clara.

Soon it's recess and then we go back inside and stand when the judge walks in. Karl has one more shot. He cries and pleads. He sits back down and I look down. "I give full custody to.... Karl Foster" said Judge Jodie. "No!" said Clara and Tom. Lilli walks in with Daisy. I look at her and Lilli gasps. Karl goes to Daisy. "I'm your daddy and your gonna be living with me" said Karl. Daisy looks at me. "Momma" said Daisy. I hug and tell her goodbye. They leave. Tom grabs me. "Baby...." said Tom. "He took her." said Clara. "I know. We will get her back" said Tom. I look at him and he kisses me. "I was sure you'd get custody. Judge Jodie.... I don't know what happened" said Jim. We go home after talking.
We sit on the sofa. "Look we will figure out what happened and do it all again" said Tom. "I know." said Clara. We order pizza and then we just try to watch movies. It doesn't work and we go to bed at 11.
She's gone.
Karl's POV
I did it. I bribed her with money and threatened to tell her husband she has been cheating with me. She's 38 and not bad looking but I have Daisy now. We just got home. I show Daisy her room and it's small, a bed, television and a dollhouse with two dolls. "Here is your dinner, pizza with coke. Enjoy. Go to sleep after" said Karl. I go watch a movie and Jodie comes over. We go to my room and well what do two adults do for fun?
I've won. Beat that Bitch Clara.

The Emperor has been murdered, leaving the Qeitan Dynasty in chaos. Liao is a privileged prince and Seer, possessing the power to see the past, present, or future. Witnessing a vision of the future foretelling his fate: his kingdom razed, ascending the throne and leading to his death, he must unravel the threads of his prophecy before it is completed. As Liao discovers more of the truth, kingdoms burn – and empires make their move. Yvir is a lowly tavern brawler, fighting only to pay off her debt and her mother’s. Taking a job to clear what they owe, Yvir finds herself caught in a conspiracy spanning continents. Jhong is Headsman of the most powerful syndicate in Qeita. Despite his influence, he still lurks in the shadows, away from the bright eyes of the immortals. Where one would find themselves overlooked, Jhong sees opportunity, and he'll seize his prize: all of Qeita, even if it means killing people who consider themselves unkillable. The fate of an empire hangs in the balance, and blood is spilled in the scale of rivers. There is only one path seen – set with secrets, brutal truths, and the eternal conquest for immortality: a path of Jade. A Grimdark Fantasy saga inspired by the ancient Chinese epic Romance of the Three Kingdoms, R.F. Kuang's The Poppy War, George R.R. Martin's A Game of Thrones, Mark Lawrence's hauntingly dark tone, and the prophetization of Frank Herbert's Dune.

There is a common line of questioning that falls upon students within their first moments at Kingsly. “Why?”. The student asks, “Why am I here?”. This is a futile line of questioning. There are those who remember, and those who do not. I’ll spare you the technical explanation — that’s what we have teachers for. The jist is as follows: those who remember are... how do I put this... more likely. They occupy more time. and the space that time has allowed them — the pertinent amount — is experienced no matter what. Allow me to offer you a bit of personal information: I am not one who remembers. There is no time relevant to me, no space that I occupy. I exist by carving myself here, and continue to exist in the same fashion. You would do well to follow suit. Why am I here? Because I force myself to be. Because the universe, the universes, for all its kicking and screaming, cannot escort me out.
