Charlie sat on a bench taking a moment to collect her thoughts. On the one hand, she was somewhat grateful. Despite the tragedy that had happened only a month prior, she was only charged with hefty fines for negligence in exchange for agreeing to testify in court when the next trial regarding the potential guilt or innocence of her peers would occur. However, she knew deep down her fellow coworkers were innocent. She was innocent. But, unless she could provide proof of said innocence, the most she could hope for was to try to plea for lesser sentences.

A soft cooing sound emitted from her backpack temporarily interrupting her thoughts.

"Shh, little one." she whispered softly into the bag, "You need to stay quiet, remember? Nobody else can know about you."

The cooing subsided and she let out a sigh of relief. Now she could get back to her thoughts as she waited for whoever had been sent to talk to her about the upcoming trial.
