They beat her all over the body until she no longer cried no more. What wrong had she done to the Mayor? She thought to herself as she sat in her cell. Her clothes had been ripped off and she was in pain.

“Get up!” ordered the officer.
She quickly got up and wiped her tears.
“Someone is here to see you.”
She followed the police officer and was led in a office. The man was sitting on a chair and placed his legs on the table. She looked at him and felt hatred and anger. In all those years she had been friends with his daughter. She respected him and thought at him as her father.
“I didn’t know you were so cruel. How could you lie to the police officer that I stole your money?” she asked with a serious look on her face.

He burst out laughing. He stood up from the chair walked towards her. He stood in front of her and smiled.

“I loved you Diana. I wanted you to be mine,” he went on. “Just come and be with me. I don’t want to hurt you my love. I am not resorting torture yet if it’s the last thing I do. You will rot in jail if you don’t agree to my proposal.”

“You disguisting. To even think you were good. Amy will have to hear about this,” she said angrily.
He shook his head.
“Amy! She doesn’t want to see you ever again. She hates you. Let me call her.”
He took his phone out of his pocket and dialled her daughter’s number.

“Dad!” she answered. “I am about to go for a lecture. Did they catch that stupid girl Diana?”
“Yes, my princess.”

“How could she s£duce my own father and after that steal your money. Don’t let her near our house again. She doesn’t deserve to be my friend,” shouted Amy on the phone.

Diana was about to say something when the Mayor cut the call.
“How could you?”
“She is my daughter. She trust me and believe me. Daddy’s little girl,” he said. “I told her that you s£duced me. My wife told her that you tried to s£duce me.”
“You cruel! You disguist me.”

He walked to her. He slapped her on the cheek.
“Watch your mouth young lady. You don’t know who you messing with,” he gawked. “Josh!” he called out.

The police officer got inside.
“Here is your money,” he said handing him the envelope. “Beat her. Don’t give her any food. She is very stubborn.”

He walked out of the office. The police officer took her back at her cell. Upon arrival he did what he was told to do by the Mayor. He beat Diana repeatedly. She lay on the floor tears streaming down her face. She couldnt sleep. Her whole body hurts. She was in pain. She wanted to know why God could let something so terrible happen to her. Hasn’t she been a good child? She never disrespected anyone. He knew God wouldn’t let her get hurt. He loved her and wanted what was best for her.

“He allows trials and suffering to occur in our lives for one purpose only because it’s sometimes through the difficulties. The pain that He can take and shape us into the best we can. If you hurting it’s not because God has given up on you. He loves you. He is willing to be there everystep of the way if you let him in and believe in him,” she remembered the Pastor’s words.
She got up and knelt down.

” I know you won’t let me endure extreme suffering seemingly on my own. You will not give up on me. I need you Lord,” she prayed.
She spent the one hour praying to God. The police officer came to her cell.
“Hey!” he shouted.

She stopped and looked at him. She was ready to face him. She was not afraid of him anymore. She was not going to feel the pain of being beaten by him anymore.

“Go to sleep. You think your God will come and break the cell and save you. Keep on dreaming young lady,” he said and went back to his office.
It was around 7pm

Early in the morning. She couldn’t get up. She slept on the floor with no shoes or blankets. She woke up with a fever and cough. Suddenly a police officer opened the cell. It was not Josh.
“Her temperature is high,” said the doctor after checking up on her.
“Doctor. Where is my brother?” she said with a low voice.
“Shhhh it’s okay. He is at my house with my wife and kids. How are you feeling?”
“Tired. My body hurts. He beat me up. I am feeling cold, headache and sore throat,” she said laying on the floor.

“Okay. I am getting you out of here,” he said carrying her. “Dylan. Make sure you get the name of the police officer who did this. This girl is innocent,” he said to the police officer.
“I will sir. I will make sure we arrest him today,” said Dylan
The doctor walked out of the station carrying Diana. The driver opened the door at the back seat. He drove the car at the doctor’s house. He parked the car at a big house. The doctor took Diana to a spare room. His wife had gone to the hospital with Admire. He la!d her on the bed and checked her temperature. It was high. He injected her while she la!d on the bed unconcious.
“I will take care of you. You good girl. You may be poor but you don’t deserve this,” he said holding her hand.

He walked out of the room and needed to talk to his father about the Mayor.
