chapter 2

⠀

the plan

⠀

⠀

three months later.

⠀

the hot pittsburgh heat poured down on me like a bucket filled with boiling hot water. my tangled obsidian hair didn't help one bit. most of the girls here at brighton had their hair cut when they were first brought here, but cutting your hair wasn't an option during your stay because the scissors they'd use could be a lethal weapon towards any facility members.

⠀

i would know.

⠀

"what's up, kamryn?" adolescent who went by kenzie asked.

⠀

kenzie was one of my only friends here at brighton. when i first met her i often wondered how she ended up in a hell hole like this. mackenzie had a small petite frame and could be mistaken for a seven year old.

⠀

most of the adolescents in the child's ward envied miss kenzie. her long silky brunette hair matched her deep hazel eyes. plus her vast vocabulary helped her get in with the a handful of the teenagers, a smart choice for anyone here at brighton.

⠀

"nothing much. just counting the days till I get out of here." I said, picking at my grainy fingernails.

⠀

"you murdered someone. you're never getting out of here." she took a seat on one of the chairs that was attached to the small table I was sitting in.

⠀

"gee thanks!" i said, lifting my head. "and i know. i'm just trying to make the days less dull and be happy." i raised my voice, trying to sound excited.

⠀

"news flash!" kenzie abruptly said. "you're in 'brighton bays mental institution'. there's now way to sugarcoat your stay here." she dipped her head as these words slipped out of her mouth. "unless you want to hear what I have to offer" she said with a sly smirk.

⠀

i raised my chin higher into the the humid air and brought my spine back, laying it into the back of my chair. "what are you implying, k?"

⠀

"ever since i've been hanging out with the teens i've been up able to keep up with all things here at brighton."

⠀

"and?" i said, raising my left eyebrow.

⠀

"tomorrow. ten a.m. you. lethal injection."

⠀

"what?" i asked, taken aback. i knew i had killed someone but most of the people here at brighton had to and they were still alive.

⠀

"yup. doctor jackson and one of his helpers are going to drug you in your cell then take you and finish you off in the surgery room."

⠀

my heart skipped a beat at mackenzie's words. it was like a tsunami of despair washing over me. it took me a while to finally comprehend with my surroundings and thoughts again.

⠀

"i'm guessing you have a plan?" i questioned, although i wish it was more straight forward. so i'd know i had a chance at living.

⠀

"yup."

⠀

"okay, tell me everything."
