" What month is it? " Dad asks looking up from his spot on the ground by me. He looks over his shoulder at me.
" January. Why? "
" You're birthday is coming up. " Dad smiles.
" Oh yeah. It is. " I smile. " And I'll get to spend it with you. "
" For the first time on years. "
" It'll be the best birthday ever. " I nod.

" When are the guards coming to give you lunch? " I ask.
" At twelve o'clock. "
" So....right now. Oh, shoot! I gotta get outta here. They'll find me and I'll get in real trouble. By daddy! I have to go. I love you. I'll be back later. " I hurry out of the room before the guards come to feed my father.
I press my back against the wall as footsteps walk past me. " Be careful. He's dangerous. "
" I've dealt with worse. "
" No. I swear. You have never seen anything like him. Not here. "
My blood boils a bit. They're talking about him. Jerks. I would say some other words, but daddy would get mad at me. Words I've heard Tony and Clint say. Words that would make everyone want to wash my mouth out with soap. Oh well.
I sneak back to my room and let out a breath as I calm down. I am going to get my dad out of here. Somehow. No matter how long it takes.
He is going to be free.
