*7th September, 2023*
The sweet smell of freedom fills the air as I make my way to the parking lot, leaving behind the confines of the prison. The sun shines brightly overhead, casting a warm glow on everything in sight. Am I a changed person? I am. Did I just get away with attempted murder and more? Yes, I did. Am I going to continue? Yes. I am. The taste of revenge is still fresh on my tongue, driving me forward with a renewed sense of purpose. Mr. Mike stands there, opening the car for me.
My lips tug into a smile, showing off my pearly whites. I slide into the passenger seat, feeling a rush of adrenaline at the thought of what lies ahead.

I trust Mr. Mike's expertise in handling these matters, but I can't shake the feeling of unease that lingers. The gala is approaching, and I must stay vigilant to ensure my safety
