The Land Beyond The River

Locked Up

After the train left a government called a meeting to say taxes are due by next week and that they were building a new electronic fence so no one can escape it felt like we are all prisoners trapped behind Bars. After the meeting, we all went home to relax because it was Sunday and everyone had work on Monday morning. I work as a bank teller and my parents worked there too until they were forced on the train and sent away, I have not seen them to this day.

I woke up feeling tired like every Monday morning then I fell out of my bed I was fine, I got dressed a started my day. Once I got to work everyone was talking about the new fence, I didn't care about it that much because it's just a fence and then my boss wanted to see me this was not good. I have never been brought into my bosses office, slowly as I enter he seems incredibly mad for some reason, then he points to the chair so I sat down "Have you been stealing money from the company," the angered boss said. "No sir." I said abruptly. "well I have you on video. Do you work at the ninth till?"

The boss said, I was very confused but I told him " No sir I work till five" I say while shaking, "oh, well Savannah you are fine to go, have a wonderful day!" He said, I thanked him a left the room. The rest of the day was boring nothing interesting I paid off my taxes in the central square and then when to my cosy bed and slept the night away
