Parental disbelief
The reality of the court’s decision struck my parents like a thunderclap, their faces etched with disbelief, shock, and confusion. The courtroom hummed quietly with the weight of the ruling, the subtle murmur of spectators reflecting the gravity of the moment. I observed them recoiling as the truth slowly sank in, their carefully crafted plans unraveling before their eyes. Vindication had arrived for me, yet their journey through denial and incredulity seemed far from over, their expressions a silent testament to the collapse of the schemes they had so brazenly attempted to enforce.
