The Journal: A Dystopian Tale

June 18th, 2049-11:00 pm (The plan is in motion)

"Rosalind, stay here we'll be quick," Josh says as he leaves the car with the others.

Time felt like it would drag on forever, but the crew eventually returned with two big duffel bags.

"We got it!" exclaims Leo.

"Okay, let's get out of here," I say as I put my foot on the gas.

June 18th to June 25th, 2049(fun...for now)

90% of the bucket list is now completed and Leo makes a trip for his parents' cancer treatment.

June 28th, 2049-9:00 am (everything falls apart)

I wake up to loud banging on the door. Luckily my parents aren't home or they would be freaking out. I look through the peephole and I see Sasha and proceed to open the door.

"What's up?" I ask worriedly.

"They....they KNOW," she says, out of breath.

"Know what?" I ask.

"About the money!" she yells.

She informs me that Leo, Josh, and Fatima are all being held by the police to see if they're guilty and that she's next. She told me her parents are about to drive her to the police station right now. I told her I would come with them.

When we arrive at the station I see Fatima, Josh, and Leo in handcuffs. Eventually, Sasha is in handcuffs too.

"Do you know them?" the police officer asks.

At this moment, I am all types of confused because if they're in handcuffs why aren't I in handcuffs with them, I was there too.

"Yes," I respond quickly.

With that, the police officer gives me a few moments to chat with my friends before they go into questioning. I turn to Josh my ears red with anger. He proceeds to explain that his boss only removed the cameras outside the skating rink and didn't get around to removing the cameras inside yet so, even though they wore masks his boss figured out Josh right away and the rest was easy to piece together. They believe I am involved too but there is no evidence against me. I am in disbelief. Before I could react, the police officers took my friends away for questioning and the officer that I spoke to earlier told me to leave.
