I get out of the small hospital room with a few stitches in my head, two black eyes, and a bruised stomach. Robin and I had spent the night there. We talked all night even laughed a few time cause in jail friends physically fight all the time. Of course, we didn't 'forgive' each other cause no one says please, thank you, or I'm sorry in here. Plus my first fight in my first week was with Robin that's when she told me about the unspoken rules of jail.
I walk out into the yard and make my way over to the fence that was rattling when I got there. "All right sweetheart I'm here." I giggle he sighs in relief "Where were you at breakfast? And what happened to your face?" he asks I laugh darkly "Well I was just trying something new with my makeup" I tell him Ethan moves closer to the fence. "Iris come on I'm worried about you!" He says I sigh giving in "Okay Robin and I got into a fight" I explain.
He gaps "What was it about?" he asks I lean up on the fence "You" I whisper he leans against my back with his own. I could tell he had more questions so I answer them for him anyway. "Listen E she wants me to tell you why I'm in here. Listen they think I killed my parents"I say Ethan gasps and moves away from the fence "But I didn't! It wasn't me! They have no proof! I was attacked that night and the only reason I lived was because I jumped. I left through the window" I say starting to cry.
"That night I snuck out to go to a party with my boyfriend. When I got back home I was a little drunk" he raises an eyebrow "okay I was wasted when I went into my bedroom it wasn't my own. I was in my parent's room they were both..they.." I cut off to control my emotions "They were being murdered I didn't see who it was but I saw the bloody knife. I looked down at my parents then jumped out the window. The person came at so I ran." I explain Ethan sighs but doesn't look at me. Instead, he walks away leaving me alone.

I lay in my bed with my cheeks moist from tears. When Ethan left I walked back into my ceil and since then I've been curled into a ball facing the wall so no one could see me cry. I lay there until Robin sits down next to me. "You don't have to say anything I ready know" she says rubbing my back making me cry even more. "What do you know?" I ask she sighs "That you told him why you're in here and then he.. well he.." she trails off I sit up tears streaming from my eyes.
"He what? Robin? Left? Yeah, he did! He left me standing there like an idiot" I say putting my head in my heads she rubs my back in circles "I talked to him he feels really bad about it but.." I wipe the tears away to look at her. "But what? He doesn't know who to believe? Or what? Did I lose his trust?" Robin sighs "No it's not that I think you need to talk to him."
