Mary My Student

Episode 30

The policeman turned to me, ” Mr Wilson, I think you are free to go we would call you if we need you.”

Then to Mary’s mother” Mrs Jasper you can go, your daughter would be here before we can arrange to get her to court, as she is 18 she is eligible for a jail term and she might get like 15 to 20 years but it depends on the decision of the judge.”

” Officer is there no way you can help me?”
” No I’m sorry there’s no way we can offer any help, you should just hang on and hope the judge is lenient and sentence her to prison for lesser years.” With that he left her as she continued wailing and hitting herself.
The driver of the police car took me and dropped me off at the school compound per my request as I wanted to get my car.
I think I could make out shapes of Nancy and Rita waiting for me. Maybe anxiously one waiting at the car the other at the classroom.
“Phew.” I breathed. ” The devil’s plans had not worked on me.” I thought as I marched on like an explorer reaching his destination.
