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 During this time, one of the things Shawn tried to do with his little buttoned phone was playing the popular outdated sudoku, which he was once a master of before he grew up to play newer games.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
Chapter 92It had been a lunch break after the first session of classes. Shawn had been out with the new family to have lunch before they got back to the class.They had managed to put Shawn in the same class as them for fear of Shawn getting bullied. There were a lot of those kinds of things where they were schooled and it was only wise for them to put Shawn in the class where they were.Since Shawn arrived at the school, he was quiet and reserved. It was one of the things the girls tried to get rid of but it proved really difficult as Shawn tucked even more to his introverted side. They ordered some food as they sat together, and paid for Shawn's alongside theirs.About five minutes later, the delivery guy brought their package to where they were.“Finally! Why did you take so long?” Ava said to the man.“I'm sorry, I would have been here sooner if not for the traffic… it's really busy out there,” he said while he got busy bringing out the things he bought and dropping them on the t
Chapter 93“Hey!! Everyone… It's visiting day, so get dressed and be prepared to meet your families!" The securities yelled as they changed the prison doors, giving the announcements.“What are they talking about?” Mike asked one of the inmates, pretending he had no idea what they meant.“If you have a family, they will be coming to visit you here so everyone has been prepared so when they arrive, you will be called out to go and spend some time with them for a couple of hours,” the guy tried to explain.“Ohh wow, okay. Thank you for that!” Mike said to him.“Mhmm!" He nodded, going ahead to do his normal business.Mike had not seen Leah since the day began and he was getting worried that she took so long to appear. Something was going on behind the rest of the inmates and no one else knew about it that was why Mike needed to tell her everything.“Are you ready?" One of the men Mike worked with came asking.“Of course, I am… I just have one more thing to do before we begin."“What is
Chapter 94It had been the end of school and Shawn was heading back home after he had a string of two hour classes, one that drained him of bus energy and he needed to get back home to eat some delicious meals the girls were going to prepare.His face looking downwards, he walked as fast as he could hoping he would see a cab that would transport him back to his house, he was weak and it seemed like only one push would bring him to the ground. The school was really busy and he needed to walk a long way before he could find a car to take him back home.“Hey!” Someone called him from behind but Shawn did not answer at first, he kept on walking at his own pace.Just before Shawn knew it, someone came up to him and quickly gave him a blow to his head.“Arhh!" Shawn yelled in pain.He turned immediately to have done that to him and quickly realized it had been them. The boys he faced earlier in the day had just come back to teach him a lesson, at least that's why they had come back.“What w
Chapter 95Ava and Amelia had left Shawn with some reassurance that they would make sure that the perpetrators would be caught and made to pay the price… on the other hand, Shawn had the keady idea of how they would pull that off. One thing was certain, and that was that it wasn't possible to avoid seeing the group of boys that tried to bully him. And if Ava and Amelia did anything crazy, it was going to haunt him for a long time because he had no one, no Pedro or even his father, and sure, he wasn't ready to be on the news for getting expelled and for being a murderer, something he quickly forgot and moved on with his life.Amelia and Ava were not out of the house, and Shawn had just woken up from his sleep, and it was already past ten. “Did I just sleep that long?" Shawn wondered, perplexed because it was the first time in a long time that had been happening, and surely no one cared to wake him up. He decided to take a walk around the house to look for Ava or Amelia even when it w
Chapter 96Shawn's POV.I stared at the door that had been destroyed and I was lost for words. The person who had broken into the house had done some sort of a good job not to leave any prints or hints on who he was… but at the same time, I knew there was always a way.I avoided eye contact with Ava and Amelia just when I knew all of this was my fault. I had hurried out earlier to go have a good time without locking the door.We were still outside of the house and Ava had whispered into my ear that they had noticed the house had been broken into, and when they walked in, it was really not the kind of place they needed to be in so they had to walk right back out, and since then, they had kept themselves out until I returned. They could not even involve the police in this because they knew they were going to ask a lot of questions and not try to solve the real problem and even if they did, they would take days, weeks if not months to help get them out of the situation. Ava was on her p
