Sin Committed

Brian POV

Right now we all are siting in the couches with Lily who is Sierras sister except Sierra because she slept on her lap and none of us said anything because it looked like first time since we saw her she was having a peaceful sleep.

Lily is staring at me with nothing but blankness and its creeping me out and I am feeling dread from inside.

Except Sierra only she is who can tell us what happened that night in their house only she can prove my dads innocence and tell that Sierra is mistaken and tell that my dad is not one of them but seeing her expressions towards me is just killing my hope.

Even though I don't want to believe anything they say but I know that I cant ignore whatever Sierra said or what Lily will say because it involves their lives.

Their lives that was destroyed that night, the night that made Sierra kill someone at such a young age, the same night where she was made an orphan, where she lost everything in just a single night, no matter what and who it involves I cant ignore that just that one night destroyed three innocent lives and left Sierra all alone in this world.

"So Brian right?", she asked looking directly in my eyes while I nodded slowly.

"I don't know if that person is your father or not or if Sierra just mistook him because of him but what I can tell you is that yes one of them was my mothers boyfriend they were going to get married and he had a son Sierras age, he told us about his son and he wanted mom to be a mother for him too as he had become a father figure for Sierra and his name was Maxim", she said with a faraway look in her eyes and the hope inside me is slowly breaking as I know that these are too much of coincidences.

"I don't want anything to him but you should know that Sierra had wasted her many years in their search and it will be unfair for her if you just stop her from getting justice for us and more then anyone for herself", she said again looking at me and I frowned.

"Her childhood was wasted, she tainted her hands with blood at such a young age, and I am sure she had nightmares don't you think its unfair shouldn't she have justice for herself because she suffered the most", she said with her voice cracking.

"Can you recognize them Lily?", Sam asked her suddenly making us all turning towards him and Lily stiffened in her place maybe understanding his question.

"I know it will be hard for you to remember them or even see their faces again but he is my friend and I don't want him to feel we cornered him just because Sierra said his father was one of them", he said explaining her and making me a little happy that he is still thinking about me.

She said a `yes` which was merely a whisper but we heard it.

"I will bring some photos of different man and you have to recognize your culprit as you haven't seen his father till now so it will be fair", he said and left while we all still sat there with this silence that makes me feel like it is the silence before storm.

"Here Lily you just have to recognize and if you don't then its ok too", he said and laid more then twenty photos on the table in front of her and I can see one of them is my father too all these photos are of people with whim uncle deal with.

She was looking through all the pictures slowly but when her hand stopped on a photo my heart stopped because he is my father, I saw as she picked his photo her hands were trembling.

"He is Maxim, I cant forget him because I have seen him many times as he has came to our house for dinners too", she said while tears slowly rolled down her cheeks and I know that she is not lying. I know now about the sin he committed.

Benji POV

When I saw Brian all I could see was his blankness he looked like he was broken without repair but the problem is no one here can do anything because he now knows the sin his father committed and no matter what he is his father and it will take time for him too cope up with it.

"So what now?", Ken asked while he looked around at everyone's face and no one made a effort to answer I was going to say something but Brian beat me to it.

"Now we make him pay", he said in a whisper while all of us stared at him in shock because we all heard it.

"No", Sam said sternly which made me frown with a question why I was going to ask why but someone again beat me to it.

"Why?", Ken asked him.

"Because its Sierras right, she needs this for a closure", he said as he stood up and came towards Brian and took him in a hug and I know he just needs comfort right now and nothing else.

I just hope that no one suffers more because of the sin they committed especially not my Sierra, and I don't know what will happen in the future but I wont let anyone take my Sierra away from me she is my daughter and I have every right on her.

Lily might be her sister by blood but she is my daughter from heart, I have raised her as my own even though I didn't knew what happened with her but I was there for her and I don't want her to leave me alone.

Already because of Maxim many people have suffered even his own son is going to suffer but I wont let myself suffer because I wont let my daughter go away.
