Zoey was sitting at the jikoni meza, jedwali in Daphne’s house. After her appointment with the dentist Zoey had decided to have a coffee chat with her sister.
“How are wewe doing?” she asked casual.
“I’m doing fine, Z” Daphne answered.
“Are wewe still taking your medication?” Zoey asked insisting. Daphne frowned, annoyed. “For goodness sake, Daphne, it’s for wewe own good and ours. The doctor didn’t prescribe wewe these pills for nothing”
Daphne stood up angry. “I know what they are for” she snapped. She sighed. “I feel good, Zoey. Emmanuel is really good company. He makes me feel good”
Zoey got up too. “He makes wewe feel good, because he reminds wewe of Martin” she alisema realistic. She walked towards Daphne and lay her hands on her shoulders. “But he’s not Martin. wewe have to treat him like your husband and let him go”
“I told him he’s free to go if he wants to” Daphne said, breathing fast. “But he doesn’t want to. He alisema he wants to stay with me”
Zoey shook her head. “I’m sorry to be the one to say this, but has it occurred to wewe that he’s just feeling sorry for you?”
“That doesn’t matter” Daphne said. “He’s staying with me, that’s what matters”
“But it’s not healthy” Zoey alisema sharp. “Do wewe even realize what wewe could’ve done? wewe almost ruined his life kwa going to the police last night”
“But-” Daphne said, but Zoey cut her off.
“You need to start thinking about other people, Daphne” Zoey said. “You feel good now, but how long will it last?” She took a deep breath. “In the clinic they can make sure wewe take your meds”
Daphne shook her head. “No, Zoey, please don’t take me to the clinic” she begged. She clawed her fingers in Zoey’s sleeves. “Please, don’t take me back there”
Zoey tapped Daphne’s arm reassuring. “Don’t be afraid. I won’t take wewe there” she promised. She took Daphne’s face in her hands. “I won’t take wewe there. Listen, why don’t wewe go take a nap? I’ll stay here to let Cas in. Gerard’s home, he can take care of Alex”
“Yeah, alright” Daphne alisema and she sniffed.
“Now, come one, away with those tears” Zoey alisema motherly. Daphne dried her eyes and smiled weak.
“I’m so lucky to have you” she sobbed.
“How are wewe doing?” she asked casual.
“I’m doing fine, Z” Daphne answered.

The jury had made a decision and woman walked to the judge and gave him a piece of paper.
“To the swali if Castiel abused Alexia Moore the jury finds him not guilty” the judge said.
“Yes!” Dean triumphed. He jumped up and walked quickly towards Cas.
Zoey took Alexia kwa the hand and walked down the aisle.
“Zoey, wait!” Daphne shouted desperate.
Zoey turned around.”Do wewe have any idea what wewe put me through? What wewe put Alex through? After everything I’ve done for you. Gerard killed himself, because of you! How many lives do wewe have to destroy, before wewe realize you’re the one who needs to be put away in a cell?”
Daphne grabbed Zoey’s arm. “Please, listen to me. I never meant to hurt wewe au Alex. I thought I was helping. Tell me how I can make it up”
Zoey jerked her arm. “Stay away from me and Alex. And if wewe even care a little about Cas, wewe stay away from him, too”
She turned around and walked away.

The waitress walked through the back door. She was taking a break. She felt two eyes on her and looked aside.
Cas was staring at her.
“Hi” she said. She walked to him. “You were uigizaji strange earlier”
“I’m sorry” Cas mumbled. “You remind me of someone”
“Your girlfriend?” the waitress guessed.
Cas shook his head. “She wasn’t my girlfriend. She was my…”
“Sex buddy” the waitress helped. “I’m Lucy”
“I’m Cas” Cas said.
“Cas?” Lucy alisema intrigued. “That’s an uncommon name” She came closer to him and took his collar. She dragged him into one of the toilets and locked the door. She threw her arms around his neck and jumped in his arms. She kissed him and Cas forced her against the wall.
“Aaaahhh!” she exclaimed. She pushed Cas away and looked at him terrified.
“I’m sorry” Cas mumbled concerned.
“It’s okay” Lucy said, but Cas unlocked the door and ran away.

One week later.
Heather was sitting kwa Meg’s bed. A week had gone kwa and Meg hadn’t opened her eyes once. The doctor had told her she was not in a coma, but just fast asleep. She would live. It was just a matter of time before she woke up.
Cas was less lucky. Someone had tried to kill him again, but fortunately there was a camera in the room and so the doctors could interfere just in time. Heather couldn’t help but wonder if keeping Cas alive wasn’t just extension of execution.
She felt something soft and cold on her arm and she looked down to see Meg’s finger moving.
“Meg?” she said.
Meg’s eyelids moved and slowly, but surely she opened them.
“Welcome back” Heather sighed relieved.
Meg tried to sit up, but Heather gently pushed her down again.
“Careful” she said. “I’ll go get a doctor” She hurried to the door and walked outside to call a doctor.

Night fell and Meg was playing with her phone. She had gotten so used to the sound of wings, she didn’t bother to look up when Balthazar and Anna appeared.
“We just heard Castiel’s trial’s tomorrow, which is very unusual” Balthazar said. “Whatever Crowley’s up to, it’ll happen tomorrow”
Meg shrugged. Why did everyone expect her to care?
“That means you’ll have to be prepared” Anna alisema sharp.
Meg stopped playing games with her phone.
“We’re getting wewe out tonight” Anna said.
Meg looked up, happy as a child. “Finally” she said.
Balthazar conjured his sword, but then a bright light shone from somewhere ahead of them.
“Oh no” Meg said. “Oh no no no no no no!”
That didn’t exactly help, because an instant later both Balthazar and Anna were gone.
Meg sunk to the bottom of her cell.
“Great” she alisema grumpy. “Juuuust great”
