court day

I was very nervous about going to court. I thought to myself, did she really hit that hard? was the fat lip so bad? Those thoughts lasted for a short time then, I said to myself pull yourself together,are you crazy! why would you allow someone to hurt you when you are helping them! So I went to court only to find her sitting on the same bench I would be sitting on and she had a cane this time ,I wondered would she hit me with the cane??? We went before the court magistrate and she needs to return to court next month because she will be charged with assault and battery. I am glad I did this because next time she needs someones help she will think twice before she hits anyone.
