Novel & Cerita Presumed Innocent

Ito ang mga katanungan na nakatanim lang sa puso niya ng ilang taon. Para sakanya, kung hindi niya malalaman kung ano ang totoo, habang buhay na siyang makukulong sa kasong 'to, at kahit pa sabihin nating nanalo ang lawyer ni Yi Jinli sa kaso gamit ang prinsipyong innocent until proven guilty, para sa puso ng lahat, kriminal pa rin siya. Kaya biglang kumunot ang noo ni Yi Jinli at naging seryoso ang boses. "Kailangan mo ba talagang malaman pa ang totoo?"

She hug her mother at sinabi ng magulang nya na kakasuhan ang lalaki na ito at kumalma na ito. "Miss Sanjorjo." Lumingon ako ng tawagin ako ng attorney at pinapasok kami sa room kung nasaan ang mag anak. "Naka lagak na ang kaso, at base sa interrogation ng mga pulis, ayaw ilabas ng lalaki ang pera na tinakbo nya na iba pa, pero hawak namin ang mga bank book at andoon ang ibang pera, mababawi natin ito at makikipag usap kami sa bangko para mabawi natin agad ang pera." Ngumiti ito at napatingin ako kay Navi at ngumiti rin dito.

Inayos ko ang aking pagkakatayo at tumikhim bago ako nagsalita. “Your Honor and ladies and gentlemen of the jury: under the law my client is presumed innocent until proven guilty. During this trial, you will hear no real evidence against my client. You will come to know the truth: that Liam Carter arrived there after the crime happened. Liam Carter went to the victim’s place to fetch her after they decided to have dinner outside. Therefore, my client is not guilty,” taas noo kong sambit.

The presence of the defendant at the crime scene will prove that he is guilty as charged,” saad ng prosecutor. Matapos na magsalita ni Prosecutor Del Mundo ay tumayo naman ang lawyer ni Jacque—si Allan Cabalquinto at sinabi ang kanyang opening statement. “Your Honor and ladies and gentlemen of the jury: under the law, my client is presumed innocent until proven guilty. During this trial, you will hear no real evidence against my client. You will come to know the truth: that Mr. Marquez was just at the port and was just talking to Mr. Fulong. He doesn’t know nor has a transaction about the contraband that Mr. Fulong had. Therefore, my client is not guilty,” saa

I'm playing here and changing isn't part of my game. "You shouldn't here. You are too pure to be part of this hell. Too innocent. If only I had the key and it's not stolen from me. Sisiguraduhin ko na ikaw ang unang makakalabas dito. I'm sorry Onyx they already get the key. The key of the secret passage to get out here. But I failed to hide it." I guilt slowly crawled in my chest. Pero pinilit kong h'wag pansinin. I'm not pure. I'm not an innocent. Dahil sa lahat ng demonyong nasa lugar na'to ako ang pinakamalala. I'm just a bad wolf hiding in a sheep's fur. I'm playing with them. And that key?. I have it. I'm the one who stole it.

I touched her chin so that she'll look into my eyes like what I'm doing to her. Wala itong nagawa kung hindi ang ang sumang-ayon. And that's the happiest day of my life. Having an angelic and innocent secretary. I found out that she's really an innocent literally. She always made my day, she always make me smile and stressed at the same time. At first, I really don't know how to handle her, and her innocence. But, as the days passed by, I know how her minds works.

“Tama ang sinabi mo. Hindi ka pa patay, pero matagal nang hindi humihinga ang mga magulang ko! Kanina mo pa pinipilit na hindi mo nilagay sa peligro ang buhay nila, pero 20 na taon na ang nakararaan simula nang pumanaw sila. Kaswal mo lang na sinasabi na wala itong kinalaman sa’yo. Sa tingin mo ba papaniwalaan kita?” Kinakabahang tumugon si Sheldon, “Pwede mong piliin na hindi ako paniwalaan, pero dapat mong malaman na may presumption of innocence sa batas natin! Kung may ebidensya ka para mapatunayang may kinalaman sa akin ang pagkamatay ng mga magulang mo, hindi ako magrereklamo kahit patayin mo pa ako. Pero kung wala kang ebidensya, ibig sabihin wala talaga akong kinalaman sa pagkamatay n

“I am damned because of your clouded hints. Bakit parang ako na hindi si Aiah–” “I am talking that way because I don’t want you to feel the pain. I am telling the story in third person, Aiah.” Padarag na nilapag ni Raius sa hapag ang kaniyang mga kamay. “You don’t deserve the pain. Wala kang kasalanan. If there’s anyone who deserve to be haunted by her conscience, hindi ikaw iyon. Biktima ka rin ditto! And it is unquestionable, conclusive, and everyone who knows you will agree with me!”

Pero nauubusan na ako ng oras. Mapakla akong tumawa tsaka umiling-iling. I thought I will only be chasing criminals, but it never crossed my mind that I will chase an innocent man, na may ibang dahilan. Ganito pala iyong pakiramdam 'no? Masakit. It's like my heart is being rip a hundred times using a knife. Mas masakit siya kaysa sa balang ilang ulit ng tumama sa'kin. But even though it hurts, I will still fight. Unless it's him who give up.

"Ayusin mo yang pananalita mo andito si Sam at maraming mga babae." "Yeah, We are innocent and we don't know what you're talking about." Maarting sabi ni Yasmin na kinatawa ng lahat. "Innocent daw, Makakatatlo kana nga," bulong ni Blake na hindi nakatingin sa asawa. Nagtataka siguro ito kung bakit biglang nanahimik ang lahat kaya nag-angat ito nang tingin.
