Ch1. The eyes that close to sleep
I awoke half drenched in sweat-last night had been what I’d call a fruitless attempt-I found out nothing, but lost everything. I swear I’d never gamble again, and look at me now, no shoes, no shirt; life seemed to be holding up the sign no service. I glanced at the beams of light that managed to break through the plastic shades. What good were they? I thought as sat down on my makeshift bed. It was all stating to come back to me. The gun, the police : if that’s what they called themselves, and the prison. I can still hear the screams of my…what to call them? I’ll go with roommates-at night. It wasn’t a prison it was a place they brought you to be broken. But I refused to break! A shudder ran through me, I looked up at the starry sky, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Freedom always seems to have its price, and with every price comes a receipt. I scoffed into my hand that held the three round cylinder pistol. This receipt-how many names were on it now?- I laughed and sighed at the same time. 10 no much more, but until that day in that cell none, and it was then that I realized none just wasn’t enough.
tell me what you think! Please
