I woke up in my cell with Julio and Joe like I have done ever day for the past 913 days. I have my parole meeting today and I know I'm gonna get off, but I don't wanna go back home. I hit my sister Sarah's best friend with my car drunk. I hate myself everyday for it. I knew she had feelings for me too. I can't believe I ruined her life.
Joe asked me this morning if I was ready for the meeting. He has been my best friend for the past 2 years I've been in this hellhole. I told him, "I want out of this hellhole but I'm nervous to go home because of Sarah and Elyse." He claims he understands, but I doubt it. He wishes me luck as I leave as my name was called along with many others for parole meetings. I enter room 4A and meet my officers. Officer Orson, Officer Bing, and Officer Martinez. Officer Martinez asks me a series of questions about the accident and if I plan on doing anything like that stunt again. I told him how I felt and that I wanted to die every since the accident. Martinez said to stop talking like that. I told him I wasn't going to lie anymore. I was hurting myself and wanted to die because it should have been me run over not Elyse. I answered all of their questions honestly. When the questioning was over,  they talked it over and told me I was going home on probation but based on the suicidal thoughts and actions I costumes to be having I had to go to a psychiatrist 5 times a week. God I'm not looking forward to seeing Elyse. Why does she have to be my neighbor.
