       When Zeara was younger she didn't have loving parents. Hers neglected and left her in the dark

Her childhood life was bad but if you look at it from an outside standpoint her behavior and actions made it good

She never got in trouble participated in class, got 100% in every quiz and test, and never ran in with the law

But somehow, it just wasn't good enough and her home life and family turned out tons bad caregivers. So she created her own home and family

Until she became not good enough for that either, and it began crumbling too

Last night Zeara dropped Xila off with Carol since she didn't want to testify. So now the teen was getting ready

Ironically the sun was shining and it was a beautiful day. It was lowkey chilly and she needed to dress court appropriate

Taking a white sweater she paired it with a silk dandelion shin length skirt and made her way out the door.

As she pulled up to the courthouse she quickly touched up her that was down in a middle part. Walking up she saw Stefan sitting on a bench waiting for her. They met up and waited for Zeara's lawyer

"How are you feeling?" He asked genuinely wanting to see.

The teen sighed and nervously laughed "Angry, nervous, sad, scared I guess."

Stefan hugged her "I get it. It'll be tonight but right now you need to look past the pain. You are Xila's mother and have given her so much and have cared for her much more than Caroline and Tyler have. Oh, you're lawyers here we should probably go in with her."

They looked at each other and both nodded. Going inside they had one last hug before Zeara and her lawyer sat in front of the judge's stand

Seeing as the other table was empty she assumed Caroline and Tyler weren't they yet. But surely they walked in and you could just see the confidence they had

Making eye contact with Caroline, the blonde had a smug look on her face and sat in the jury section

She wasn't allowed to sit at the table with Tyler seeing as she wasn't the real parent, but if they won custody her name would be called since she is the godmother and she technically can get custody
