I tried to piece together what Cam had said. From what I gathered, he seemed to be working for the Luddites and had told them about Alan. In other words, he was a treacherous liar.
Although, he had apologized about it. Maybe he worked for the Luddites, but wasn't as bad as the rest of them.
Maybe I had just misunderstood what he had said?
In any case, I was still very angry with him.

I finally convinced one of the Luddites who works here (her name is Londa Janowski, and her job is to make sure I follow the rules and don't complain) to give me access to the e-library. There aren't very many science fiction books, but I'm glad that I have something to do while I'm here.
My parents also came to see me. After lots of hugs (yuck), they asked me how everything was going. I said that I didn't like it very much, but it wasn't like a prison. I would describe it as being grounded in a hotel. I didn't mention Cam to them, though.

Iwonder what Alan's doing. I hope the Luddites haven't found him yet.
