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
Chapter 96Shawn's POV.We had just gotten the first part right. We figured out how we could get together with who had done this to us, but we all knew that there was much more work to be done than this. The look on Amelia and Ava's faces said it all.After taking out the chip, which I speculated must have contained the video content we needed, I took it to my laptop and immediately played it there, rewinding it to the point we all saw the group of guys come to attack the house.That was just one piece of evidence, and we did not have all the evidence we needed to file a case or even present it to the police when they would come to ask their crazy questions… They always had a way of annoying the citizens by asking a lot more questions than even giving out a solution to the problem. It was the one reason Amelia and Ava never liked reporting any case to the police because nothing was going to be done.Ava and Amelia gathered just when the video began to play to watch all the action and
Chapter 98“You need to promise me that you are not going to tell anyone about what you know about this plan or whatever I will tell you right now” Mike's words kept on ringing in her ears like he had been right there beside her whispering.The clique of girls had been standing just right behind her waiting for her to give them the answer to the question they had asked “Did you not hear us? Tell me what is going on with you and that asshole!” one of them hollered at Leah.“I do not have to tell you anything. You know, you should just mind your business and stay out of mine. Just maybe we will enjoy our stay here in prison!" Leah said to them and was just about to take the bold step when one of the girls quickly grabbed her hair, pulling her to the ground.“You bitch!! You don't talk to us that way, especially not you who just arrived, fucker!” she cursed, eventually spitting at Leah.“Why the hell did you do that? Is it so hard to mind your fucking business? Or you just want to take
Chapter 99Everyone stood still, making no noise as they waited to see who was coming. They knew that if it was the guards, they had no other option but to end his life. They needed to be careful, and the guards knew all of their plans were going to jeopardize everything they worked hard for.Just then, someone crept out from the dark and he quickly showed himself.“Wait!! Wait!!" The man yelled quickly and tried to block all the hits that were targeted at him. He literally saved himself by speaking up.“What the hell? Where have you been the whole time?" The man, supposedly the leader, spoke up asking.“I walked out to get some water a couple of hours ago but then I could not come back," he tried to explain“What do you mean you could not come back?” “The guards, they were up but this time earlier than we had anticipated and I couldn't come back in time to warn you," he mumbled, looking right down at his feet.“Wait! Warn us about what?" Leah voiced out, noticing no one was going to
Chapter 120The alarms sounded, shimmering into the ears of the inmates waking them up from their sleep. It was quite earlier than the rest of the days and that was because it was a special day. Most of the Inmates that had been in the prison for years were finally getting their freedom back and they would be going home finally, after a long, long wait.The timetables for the day had been set and the inmates were made aware of what was going to happen today. New inmates were going to roll in either from a transfer from another prison or sentencing. And at the same time, a few people were going to leave— only those that survived though.It had been said that most of the inmates that would have gotten their freedom the next day were likely killed by their fellow inmates because of envy and other reasons which weren't made known to the General public.Mike and Leah after hearing all of the horrors had their eyes and their ears open throughout the night. They knew they had no excuse for n
Chapter 119(Hours Before The Mission)Pedro had been in constant communication with Grace. She had something Pedro needed and that was to be able to know what was happening even when he was with Shawn, and what was going to happen with his friends in the prison.Grace was the only one who Pedro had seen with such a gift, and in a long time, nothing had been heard of them until now. Pedro knew there was a big reason why she had offered to help him with Shawn's issue, even at the same time offering to help Mike and Leah out.She had an idea of how she was going to get them out of the prison. It was not convincing enough but Pedro had a much bigger reason to believe in what she had told him.Pedro was out of town and did not need Shawn's parents, who were in constant communication with him to know what was going on. He had to handle this alone and find a way not to involve or put any of his people in trouble.Shawn's parents needed to see Shawn as soon as possible. They feared that some
Chapter 118"Erica!! How are you still alive?" Shawn voiced, taking in a deep breath."Did you expect me to be dead? So much for the plan you had set up…" she said with a big smile as she gave Shawn a glance from head to toe. It seemed she was liking all that she had seen at the moment."Why are you in these ropes?" Erica asked, pretending to have nothing to do with this, she had on a pitiful face"Ohh fuck! Why is she acting like she has no idea what I am going through? She ordered the guards to do this to me and now she's here acting all innocent. Girls!!! Never to be trusted!" Shawn thought to himself as he shook his head in disapproval.It was just unbelievable. The news had been everywhere that he was the one who murdered her, but here she was standing before him with a scary wicked grin. "Why are you acting like you did not have a hand in this? I know you are the sole reason why I am tied in this fucking—" Shawn spoke furiously as he lifted his hands to show Erica what she had
Chapter 117Shawn had been arrested and was taken to a detention center where he was going to get interrogated by some policemen about the murder of Erica.The news and rumors had been put to bed for a long time since Shawn and the rest of his friends had moved away from the home and anywhere possible where they would have been found.Someone was responsible for this because none of the police officers had wanted to go in search of Shawn, knowing fully well that he wasn't going to be found that easily.The police had been informed that someone was coming to speak to Shawn as they had locked him up in the dark so he would have no idea where he was. He had been there for over two days and was weak. No food, no water, and in the most heated hours of the day when he would find himself sleeping for no reason, he had nightmares, much more times than he would have ever imagined. But the part that got him upset was the fact that he would wake up and not remember what the dream was about. Th
Chapter 116"Hey, you!!" A loud voice uttered pointing towards her as she turned her face in the direction of the voice."Huh…!!" Those were the only words she uttered as her heart shook when she knew she was the one being called."Come with me!! The voice commanded and Leah could feel her legs already tickling to get going before something happened to her.She could feel waves of shivers through her spine. As though it was her fate, her heart pounded like this day would be her last.She rose from where she had sat and tried to clean herself up but there was simply no time for that as the man quickly grabbed her arm ferociously and moved her in the direction where she had seen them take Mike.Now it was getting scary and she could not bear this on her own. She tried to be calm as they approached the area in the yard where there were no lights, and the closer they moved in the more there was a noise up front in the building ahead of them."Where are you taking me?" Leah voiced out afte
Chapter 115Mike's return from the president's office to the yard had caused a lot of problems and had brought so much trouble to him. He had not been told by anyone that he wasn't supposed to get any information from the president because whatever he was going to promise to give was just a scam… it wasn't real.He was not the kind of person who kept to his word, and if Mike had known this, for sure he would not have shaken hands with him. He, for sure, had made a huge blunder on his part. All eyes were on Mike and Leah now. Everyone had their eyes and ears on him just in case he had reasons to be suspected of anything. The men who stayed in the prison longer than Mike did have given an order to the rest of the guys in the prison to watch out for him… when Mike's bunkmate was no exception to this.It had been a few weeks now, and nothing had been mentioned to Shawn by anyone. Plans had been made to escape prison in 4 months when the digging was going to be completed but Mike this tim
Chapter 114Shawn had his eyes on the door now. There were only two things that would be if all he thought of truly happened. One was that he was going to see himself in jail sooner than he expected, or just maybe he was in some serious trouble.Ava took the bold step to twist the doorknob as she opened it. She poked her face slowly through the little space she had created, checking to see who knocked on the door and what they wanted."Bring the boy out… we need to take him with us now!" They ordered, and Shawn could feel the anger and authority in their voice."Who are you talking about? We do not know who you mean, we have not heard that name around here before," Ava said to them with a glare, showing them that she was not afraid of them or the guns they carried around in the name of security."Are you sure you are telling us the truth? We need to know the truth and as citizens you need to be truthful else you will face the law," the officer who stood before Ava lectured her."Crazy
Chapter 113It had been 5 hours since the girls last saw Shawn. 5 hours after the man that came in to look for Shawn walked out. Still, they had no idea who he was and what he came for. Shawn refused to speak to them about Pedro, who they knew nothing about. They waited for him to come out of his room, and when he finally did, they knew they would have the chance to ask him whatever they needed to know.Shawn stepped out of his room in an attempt to head for the kitchen when the girls walked up on him, blocking him before he could sneak in and out back to his room."What the hell? You shared the shit out of me," Shawn yelled as he held his heart in his hands."We did not scare you, we only noticed that you were trying to sneak to the kitchen to do whatever it is you wanted to do…" they both chorused as they gave Shawn a stern look."No, no! That isn't what I was doing… I only tried to dash to the kitchen because I needed to get something and immediately return to my room, that's all,
Chapter 112Shawn's eyes lighted up as tears filled in. He felt his body freeze for a minute until he heard his voice mutter."Hello, young master!”It was really Pedro… and how he got to his house, Shawn had no idea but at that moment, there were mixed feelings."I am supposed to hug him? Or I'm just going to stand here and see what unfolds next?" Shawn whispered to himself as he let out a tear."What's going on?" Ava's voice asked just behind Shawn and she placed her hands on Shawn's shoulders."Who is there?" Amelia joined to ask as she walked towards the door where Shawn stood to check why Shawn stood still like a plank of wood."How are you doing, young master?" Pedro asked with a shaky voice and just then, Shawn lifted his face to meet his teary eyes of Pedro. This was a surprise and at the same time an emotional moment for Shawn and Pedro. The two couldn't even hug themselves with the level of emotions that flooded the air.“I… I… am okay!" Shawn responded with a stutter as h
