Chapter 55Shawn almost froze to death as he stood there waiting for what was going to happen next to him. He had no idea what he would do next as he saw his legs beginning to shake uncontrollably."He is shaking. . . This little boy is shaking," they gibed and began to laugh making fun of Shawn.Shawn felt his legs shifting back as if he needed to run as fast as he could."What do you want from me? I could just leave right now and none of this would ever happen, and maybe, you guys could go on with what you were doing in the first place," Shawn muttered, facing the cart tightly."Nah, we will not let this go. . . Now let's see what's in your bag!" The man uttered, catching Shawn off guard."What did you say?" Shawn asked shocked he was going to give everything he was about to buy away, alongside his money"I said. . . Hand over all you have on you and walk away," the man said."I can't do that. . . This is not for me by the way as I'm getting these for my parents," Shawn lied hoping
Chapter 56Shawn and Pedro headed out to the restaurant almost immediately wasting no time. Pedro needed to get hold of the people who robbed Shawn and also teach them a lesson.Shawn showed Pedro the faster direction and they got there in minutes. Pedro was a quick driver and didn't care what the police were going to say. He only had some sort of luck because the policemen always needed some bribe and he was free to go."There it is!" Shawn pointed in the direction of the mall and Pedro turned the car into the parking lane where he was going to park the car and step out.Shawn led the way as they got into the mall like they were some gangsters not minding who had been watching them from behind."Which way?" Pedro asked Shawn, taking a glance around where he was standing."This way!" Shawn muttered as he began to move in the direction where the guys were. He was hoping they would still be there but as he kept on approaching, he knew they were gone."It's this place. . . They are gone,
Chapter 57Pedro had arrived back home with Shawn, who had been smiling all day as he fiddled with his phone in the car. Pedro had noticed how his face had been really tight when they left the mall, because he had done something bloody, but it came as a surprise to Shawn that he was smiling all through the way back home"What's making you smile that way?" Pedro asked not giving Shawn the scary eye contacts"Nothing!" Shawn answered as he shrugged his shoulders and pretended not to be smiling even when he had been caught."Okay! Pack your bags and let's get into the house," Pedro said as he dropped Shawn's bags on the floor and went in."Why did you. . .? I thought you were going to help me carry them," Shawn cried."Oops! Sorry, I would if you told me who your secret girlfriend was," Pedro winked at Shawn and walked past the door."How does he even know that?" Shawn muttered to himself."Ohh! Because only girls will make guys smile foolishly on their phones. . ." Pedro yelled from now
Chapter 58Shawn was worried about everything that happened and how Pedro kept on waving away his questions each time he asked the reason he came up like that at them. Pedro never turned his face away from the car steering as he kept his eyes steady on the wheels.He stood in the car once he reached one of the restaurants. Shawn got out quickly and began to look around like he had been there before"We have been here before. . . Right?" Shawn said to Pedro."Yes!" Pedro muttered and quickly went mite from then on as he walked into the restaurant. Shawn knew he had every reason to take it that, that was his best restaurant. Shawn walked in staying on Pedro's shoulders as he moved in with him."Some tequila ma'am. . . With nice tasty food. . ." Pedro said to the woman as he walked quickly to his favourite table which was far away from the front door, which they came in through and rather closer to the back door.The woman brought her drinks and displayed them on the table just as Pedro
Chapter 59“Hey, Leah!! Wait up!” Mike's voice sounded from behind as he tried to reach Leah from afar out."Mike! How are you doing. . .?" Leah asked, taking a wild stare at Mike from top to bottom."I'm good. . . Why are you giving me that face?" Mike asked, smiling."You are so hot right now!" Leah said, winking at him."Yea! I know right, the sun is so hot right now, I can't wait to get back," Mike said and looked away."You are crazy, you know that? I meant you motherfucker," Leah said laughing."Ohhh thank you," Mike smiled mischievously. He knew what she meant all along but he needed her to say it again. . . He was enjoying taunting her"You don't look bad yourself," Mike said to Leah."Ohh, please! Spare me. I've lost a lot of weight and I'm definitely going to need a whole week to refill so don't even say I look fine," Leah responded, chuckling."Come on, give me a hug!" Mike muttered as he got close to her and Leah got into his open arms."Yup! That's it!" Mike muttered when
Chapter 60What are we still doing here?" Leah yelled into Shawn's ears as he stood looking like he was not even present anymore."Hey. . .! Why did you do that? Why did you have to scream into my ear like that?" Shawn said angrily as he stared down at Leah."I have been saying this for the last 5 minutes and you still acted like you didn't hear me, and do not fucking lie you didn't hear me," Leah said to him."What did you say. . .? I honestly didn't hear a thing you said. . ." Shawn asked like he knew nothing of such."I have been calling you, asshole. . . We need to leave here, I mean what are we doing here?" Leah asked Shawn.Shawn couldn't say a word, it seemed like it was the same question he had been asking himself but the answers were not coming."Okay! Let's not go into that heat and argument, let's just leave right now," Shawn said to Leah."By the way, where did Mike go to. . .?" Shawn asked as tried turning his neck to spot Mike."Look over, he is just there! He's right ov
Chapter 61It had been morning, and the rays of the sun came screaming into Shawn's flickering eyes. Each time he tried to adjust himself to get some more sleep, he kept on hitting something that lay closer to him on his bed."What's this. . .?" Shawn with his eyes closed, kept on muttering.It felt like a body close to him, and in Shawn's mind, all he thought of was how someone else got into his bed without his consent, and how the person got into his room without some sort of permission."Please. . . Get off my bed!" Shawn muttered again."What the hell. . .? You are on mine!" A feminine voice uttered and Shawn quickly sat up like he had been electrocuted, wiping his eyes."What. . .?" Shawn mumbled as he looked around, and tried to recognize where he was."How did I get here?" Shawn asked after noticing he had been in someone else's room."Have you forgotten so fast?" She asked.Shawn could see clearly now and he saw that he had been sleeping with Leah on the same bed. He quickly c
Chapter 62It had been ending of the term and all the students were packing their baggage, preparing to get back to their different homes, those from far and near. They needed to go back to see their mothers, fathers, and even their best friends after about 4 straight months in school.Mike, Leah and Shawn were not exempted from this as they all had stayed away from the eyes of their family, it was one of those times they needed to take advantage of because there was never going to be another in the next four to five months.They guys had planned out everything. . . They agreed that they were definitely going to meet together to see themselves out after packing their things before they travelled back to their different towns to visit home.Shawn was the first to finish packing and he had to go to their favourite spot which had been really close to the school to wait for the rest of the crew, Leah and Mike.It wasn't long now before the rest of them arrived with their room keys ready t
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
