I was there, pacing back and forth around my cell.
I mean our cell.
My crusty feet scraping the cold metal floor.
My arms crossed over my chest hugging myself tightly.
My eyes piercing through the cell door opening where I could see light coming through.
A week before that, if someone were to tell me that I would be worried about some naive, ill-tempered girl I would've said they were out of their mind.
But then...
Then I suppose things were different.
'God, she's been gone a long time. What was happening there? Was Rus Cargale interrogating her? Or worse....torturing her?' I thought.
Oh but I shouldn't even have cared.
From outside my door, I heard shifting of feet. I quickly ran towards the door and looked out straining my eyes . It was just some guard walking around checking the cells.
I backed away from it slowly. "Jesus! Why am I so jumpy?"
"It's not like I care about that stupid girl!" I said to no one in particular.
The stupid girl that made you want to stab scissors into your ears sometimes from listening to her.
The stupid girl who made you mad beyond belief with her nonsense.
The stupid girl who knew nothing about the real world. One who thought she could get away with whatever she wanted without any consequences.
One who thought she could just reason with people to get what she wanted.
She was so unbelievably stupid to me.
So why did I care about what happened to her?
I thought about it for a second straining my brain for the answer.
"I got it! It's because of Layna!" I shouted out with a small smile.
The moment I saw her I just knew that she was what I needed. She was the missing piece that I needed to fill the empty space that was inside of me.
One that I had longed for.
One that the stupid girl took for granted.
She was why I was stressing over Avalon. It was because she was her sister and she loved her with all her little heart.
Love. I didn't think it existed. It just couldn't possibly exist. If love existed then why was life so shitty?? Why had I been treated like shit?? I had been a good person..
Somewhat.
Why was I put into that depressing jail with all those depressing people and their depressing stories about depression?!
Trust me I had heard a lot for a girl who had only been there a month.
Those prisoners had been through hell all of their lives just like I had.
It sucks that women were put in there but why should I have complained all day long when I could just sit back and go through it?
'I'm not going to change the world!' I thought.
That required work and...I was not willing to work.
In my mind I was a nobody. No one would ever listen to me. No one had ever listened to me.
