" What happened to you, " he asked.
The instant flash back of the gun exploding in my hand danced before my eyes.
" You killed a man, Lacey! "
A pause.
"They are going to put you away for life! "
Shards of glass flew in every direction, making soft tinkling noises as they hit the ground.
" I can try to help you, Lacey."
Please, let me help you," concern edged his voice.
Blood pooled around the lifeless body.
" Don't say I didn't try. "
Blood reached my sneaker staining it a deep red.
"Lacey, for goodness sakes, answer me!" He was yelling now.
Cop cars blared in the distance. Every second that passed they got closer. I had no reason to run, I knew what I did.
" I'm so sorry, Lacey. "
Handcuffs pinched my skin as I silently slid into the backseat of the car.
My eyes flutter open, squinting from the golden light that travels in through the cell block's barred window.
