Benjamin Barker's POV:
Benjamin laid awake in his cell, the old and hard bed kept him awake as he looked out the small barred window and watched the stars go by. His face was slightly damp from the hours of sobbing, he felt completely heartbroken from being torn away from his family. He looked down at the small daisy that he had managed to hold onto, its petals slightly wilted, reflecting how he felt as he sat there on his bed, a prisoner. He laid back down onto the bed, his brown locks starting to become darker, holding the daisy to his chest as one final tear escaped from his eyelids, the teardrop falling on the daisy as he finally fell asleep.
Wake up, eat breakfast, get mentally tortured, eat lunch, get physically tortured, eat dinner, get mentally tortured, and finally down time. This was Benjamin's dreadful and cruel schedule that he went through for 15 years. The torture caused his hair to become a dark raven color, a part of it became white from all the trauma he endured. His skin became deathly pale from lack of sunlight, deep, dark hallows formed around his eyes from his many, many sleepless nights.
Benjamin looked down at the even more wilted and plenty dead daisy, deciding this would be his last day there. In the evening, he grabbed the few things he still had hidden and escaped through his window, he had worked at the bars whenever he could, and he managed to finally loosen and remove the rusty bars. He jumped onto a small rowboat, and rowed for the next 5 days. The small boat went through a storm, causing him to swim in the cold waters for 2 hours until a ship showed up, saving him.
He met the sailor who spotted him, Anthony. He remarkably hadn't lost any of the senses in his body from the cold, and made sure to thank Anthony for any later and he would've drowned. As they continued their voyage, he thought of (Y/N) and Johanna, taking out the withered daisy and lightly kissing it, wanting to return to his family again.
