Chapter 84Shawn could feel his heart thump hard, he felt his breath get heavy every second, and he felt his knees shake, but he dared not look at the door...“What's happening Shawn?” They both chorused.“This is not good…!!” Shawn whispered…Leah glared at Shawn from where she had been the whole time, she wondered what must have gone wrong and why he had been acting that way over a simple knock on the door.“Come on, it should be Neal who had just come back from wherever he went to, it has to be!" leah Said with no form of doubt on her face.“By sunset, that was when he said he would be back. And I just had this same dream, it's something worse and I am sure it's not Neal at the door,” Shawn said, standing by his words.“Is this some kind of vision you saw? Or a prophecy of some sort? Because that for sure isn't true. I will open the door now," Mike said boldly, springing up from his place straight to the door.”“Hey! Hey!!! Mike, don't do that... Do not do that, I promise you, we a
Chapter 85 Shawn's POV “MIKE NO!!!!” I screamed as I launched in towards Mike to get the gun from him just when he clenched his fist to the gun and pulled the trigger. There was a gunshot in the car. Leah screamed at the top of her voice, I guess someone had been killed, I thought the same too. “The kids are crazy, what is wrong with you? I guess I will just have to do what I needed to do long before now,” Neal yelled, struggling to get the gun from our hands. Luckily for everyone in the car, no one was hurt, but the driver had lost control of the car and had run the car into a building that was yet to be completed. “What the fuck!! You all are dead right now," the driver mumbled from his seat after he hit his head on the car wheels “Hey!! Better don't try shit,” I yelled, getting the gun from Mike and immediately pointing it at the man's face. “What are you doing Shawn? Do you want to shoot us? Then do it!” If there was anything I didn't like, it was getting tempted by some
Chapter 86 Shawn could not believe it... Even Leah could not stand it when she heard Erica was still alive. It felt like their whole life flashed in front of them and that they had been loving, in what looked like a lie. “How did she get to live? And how did she escape with a drug in her body?" The questions kept ringing in Shawn's mind. The guys knew there was definitely no way Erica could have woken up that fast to make these orders, except she had done it before the capture or she had someone she was working with. “Can you believe this? Cause I know he is lying... That's not possible!" Mike stated angrily as he moved closer to him for more clarification on what he said earlier. “Why are you lying? Erica was taken away, wasn't she?" Mike mumbled as his hands stuffed the collars of the driver. “Why are you not believing me? It's the truth and there is nothing else I have to tell you. That's it,” the man said but this time, with a reaction that told him that he was angry no one b
Chapter 87 The phone call changed everyone's mood. Mike and Leah looked to hear Shawn if he ea going to say anything concerning the phone call he had just received but he said nothing about it. “Shawn, come on, you know you can trust us… what's going on?” Leah persisted. “I said I am fine… we should go ahead with the cleaning before it gets dark,” Shawn opted to move to the corner to pick up the bucket he has seen there. He had chosen to mop like Mike and Leah moved to do the cleaning and sweeping so Shawn could come in and mop up the remaining part of the house. There were already bands of sweat dripping from their forehead onto their head, it wasn't going to be easy but the guys had no other choice. “Please guys, if you find something you know needs to be thrown away, you can bring it to the centre here and then we'll do justice to it instead of taking them outside!” Mike ordered. “Okay, that's fine!” Leah muttered in response. Mike kept a radio on while he did his part of the
Chapter 88 It had been night and Mike, alongside Leah had just managed to take Shawn back to the house where they stayed. They were mesmerized by what had just happened even when Shawn was reluctant to speak to them about everything that went on with the police officer. It was clear that something happened, and they deserved to know. Leah sat close to Shawn and she had his head placed on her lap while he was quiet the whole time. Mike on the other hand did the job of transporting everything they had brought back, to the dining table where they were going to sort out all of their things before they went to bed. Shawn's POV. I sat there thinking about all of the things that could have gone wrong in a matter of seconds if I had made the wrong choice or the wrong move while the policeman watched my every move. I could feel my leg get stiff the moment I tried to stand there fighting the urge to run towards where Mike and Leah had been… And if the policeman had moved a bit, I would have
Chapter 89 It was a very sunny day, such a day Shawn would have perceived to be one of his best days but the only thing was that he would not be able to leave the comfort of his room. Since he woke up early in the morning, he stayed in his room while he played around, fiddling with his little buttoned phone which he was once given as a gift from his mother when he was little and had since learnt to treasure because it was his first birthday gift. Mike had earlier arrived at his room to make sure he had gotten food when he needed it and Leah too whenever she woke up. During this time, one of the things Shawn tried to do with his little buttoned phone was playing the popular outdated sudoku, which he was once a master of before he grew up to play newer games. He had been playing there for more than half an hour when he suddenly heard some knock in the other room closer to his. “What is really going on?" Shawn thought to himself, as it was already beginning to become rampant, minute a
Chapter 90 5 Months Later It was the beginning of the end for Shawn. One of the things he could not get past, the memories kept on coming, time after time like he had been watching a whole review of his life with Leah and Mike. And each time the flashes of memories came, it came alongside a drop of tears. “Hey Shawn, breakfast is ready!” a voice called Shawn. He had been in the living room with his journal, writing down things, things those he lived with saw as creepy. He spent most of his time and days with his book like it was some company and once, he heard people mention that he was obsessed with some letter his lover had sent to him, maybe that was why he couldn't let go of the book, wherever he went. “I am coming, give me a minute!" Shawn replied, tidying up what he had been doing to go have his food. He had found a way to run away from the area he had been to somewhere where no one knew him. He knew there was no life for him back in his city. He needed to let go of his fam
Chapter 91Mike's Pov.I had been here for over three months, and during my first few weeks, the only thing I needed to do was get an ally within the prison. I needed someone I could speak to, someone who could tell me the truth without trying to hide anything. I needed someone who could disclose a lot of secrets to me… I think I had just found the right person.His name is Michael, Michael Scofield!” I said to Leah, pointing at the guy I had spoken of.“So he's your source?”“Nope, not like a source, but sort of a partner I have been working with for the past few months we've been here.“And all of these, I am hearing them just for the first time?” Leah muttered, giving me a sharp stare.“How do you think you will have an idea of what is really going on here when all you do is sleep around and gossip with the other girls who are no better than you!" “Do not even try to insult them. When we first arrived here, you acted like you had no idea who I was even when we came in together. Ev
