Chapter 3 Prison

• Chapter 3
• Belinda POV
• I stared at him intently and waited for his reaction
• He just gazed at me back and he had this nonchalant look.
• The glass made him even seems so distant
• "Mike, did you hear what I just said?"
• He was still silent
• "Mike" I called confusion written all over me.
• "Not only did you murder someone you still want to implicate your sister" he finally spoke up
• "Mike don't you believe me? I thought you loved me, why did you……" I was too tired to cry I don't have much energy and I did rather save it then cry so I took a deep breath
• I can't believe even my own fiancée is now doubting me.
• "Mike I…"
• "Enough Catherine already explained what happened to me and I came here for something else" he cut me off
• I suddenly have a bad feeling.
• "What did you come for?" I know there's no point explaining to him again that he will believe whatever he wants to.
• "About our engagement I want…"
• I pulled off my ring before he finished
• "Let's part way" I beat him to it
• He looked at me in bewilderment but quickly change his expression
• "Right? It for the best and it makes it easy for me" he chuckled
• "Don't come begging me" he added
• "How am I supposed to beg you when I'm locked up here?" I smirked he thinks my world revolves around him
• Though I love him and can't bear to part with him, for the best I can't marry someone that doesn't believe in me.
• He doesn't even trust me. He fell for Catherine's lies without giving me a chance to explain myself.
• "I see, well goodbye then Belinda" He stood up and I watched as he left
• I held my chest as soon as he left,it would be a lie if I said I'm not hurt. Our 7 years relationship ended just like that.
• I sniffles "Don't cry remember don't cry for that bastard" I reminded myself but tears clouded my eyes I tried to held it in but it poured out like rain
• I whimpered and wailed, promising myself it will be the last time I will cry for him or anyone.
• I was back in my ward,I listened as my wardmates chatted happily without any care in the world
• I must say they are used to the life here
• Some are on death row some life imprisonment and they are not even bothered
• "Hey 1011" the ward leader called
• She is a very cruel scary woman and her body stature looks like that of a man she must have gymed a lot the bulging muscles is enough to testify
• "Hey 1011" she called again
• I looked around to see who she's calling.
• Here in prison your name is not needed only your number the number displayed on your uniform.
• "Hey" she snapped at me
• I frowned looked at my uniform and realized she was talking to me
• I still haven't gotten used to these digits of a thing.
• "Go easy on her she's new after all" one of them chapped in
• "Come here" The leader waved at me and I moved closer in fear
• "Relax" she chuckled when she saw how nervous I am
• "What...what can...I do for you?" I stuttered.
• "I'm bored I want you to tell me how a young and beautiful girl like you got in here" my eyes flashed with surprise at the gentleness in her voice
• She was always cold so her tone was surprising but it helped me calm down a little.
• We are 6 prisoners in my ward and I saw as they looked at me with anticipation waiting for my story
• "It's my sister we……"
• I narrated everything to them and they stared at me like I am a fool but I don't blame them I am.
• "You are just a innocent little being" the leader muttered under her breath I almost couldn't hear her
• Am I ? Am I really innocent? Maybe I was before but not anymore.
• I saw they believed me and can't help but feel hurt that the man I loved didn't even believe me.
• ************
• "Hello there" I saw someone interrupt my work
• I have been working endlessly since morning and I'm already tired but I can't rest till I finish my work for the day so I can relax.
• I turned to her and saw a lady or should I say prisoner like me.
• She looked rough with her unkempt hair, she was chewing gum and a wild smile was playing on her lips.
• It sent chills to my body
• She was with 3 other prisoners
• '2085' I read her number.
• "Weren't you taught to reply greetings?" She raised her brow
• I know she's not here for any thing good so I decided to ignore her
• "Hey I'm talking to you" she nudged with her elbow and I almost fell
• "You are quite weak, it won't be fun," she hissed.
• "I'm talking to you" she was loud enough for everyone to hear us
• "She needs to be taught a lesson" one of the prisoners with her eyed me
• "Go on, show her how it's done" she commanded them.
• One of them drew my hand and I looked at her in confusion
• The other two held my body in place and before I could register what was going on.
• "Boom" her punch met my stomach
• I groaned as wave of pain hit me
• "Pak" she slapped me not once not twice.
• I started feeling dizzy and tried to fight free but they are too much for me
• She landed my another punch and I almost throw up
• My eyes was already teary and I wasn't seeing clearly
• She gave me another punch on my nose
• And blood came out with ease
• I was already crying and trying to free myself but I kept getting hit each second
• It was unbearable for me
• I was close to fainting when I heard room leader cold voice
• "Who touched my baby?" She yelled with a tone I never heard from her
• They dropped me and I fell on the floor
• Room leader moved closer to check my condition.
• Her eyes kept getting darker and darker as she saw how wounded I am
• She shifted her gaze to the capture
• "You are dead" she screamed….
