The next day I was released from hospital. My arm was still bound and hurt, but it was okay. They puzzled me back together. Especially the wound Aron left wondered them. Not every person had a wound in form of a sentence on his arm. I felt the now warm metal of the little earring in my hand. But the hardest work was it to convince my father and Katy that I didn't turn mad and told lies, because I was in love with John. In fact I didn't tell them I was in love with John, but I thought that was clear, actions spoke louder than words. They couldn't accept John was the good one. Both of them would freak out, but because of different reasons. Katy would probably stalk us and want to know everything and my dad.... Well I had no idea what he would say, but I was sure he wouldn't be too happy. Mostly it was hard for fathers when their daughter had a boyfriend. If this boyfriend was a bankrobber that wouldn't help to relax the situation. And then I remembered the fact, that now John was under arrest, he couldn't just come along and talk to me. 

When I saw dad was driving me home I asked him if we couldn't drive to the jail first. He gave me a questioning look, raising one eyebrow, but didn't say anything. We weren't talking, everybody was thinking about something different when suddenly it broke out of me. "John is my boyfriend", I placed my hands over my mouth, but it was too late, I couldn't get the words back. Now he would freak out. "I know", he said. Wait what? He knew it? Why? Now it was my turn to look confused. "The way you talked about him and what he did for you. You weren't as inconspicuous as you think you are", he winked at me. "I was just asking myself when you would tell me." he chuckled. After the first surprise a careful smile appeared on my face. "Sooo you don't have a problem with it?", I asked hoping for a good answer. From the side he gave me an evaluating look. "Well I'm anything else but happy.... ", he wasn't able to say more, because I hugged him across the car almost causing an accident. "Thank you so much dad, you had no idea how afraid I was to tell you", I smiled brightly. Suddenly I wasn't thinkable anymore at all. My father laughed "did you think I would kill him?". I tried to imagine that. No, I really didn't want a fight between my dad and John. Both of them were strong men with an iron will. A shiver caused by that thought went down my back. When we entered the ground of the jail I swallowed a little. This was my first time in a jail, I only knew it from movies and books.

Not such a comfortable place.
