"Whether you did it or not, you are still here." Said Tom while he got up and left.
It got quiet for the next few minutes until an Officer came and stood in front of my cell.
"Your trial starts tomorrow." He said then walked away.
I lied down in my bed and hid underneath the covers then fell asleep.
The next morning I was expected to be awoken by the burning sun on my face but I was awoken by the sounds of keys Jingling and prisoner's screaming.
"I need to get out of here.." I thought to myself.
I needed to get out of here as soon as possible. Tom came walking down a hall in a suit ready to get me. I stood up and went over to the door in a dress that i was wearing before now. The same tall officer came to me and handcuffed my wrists behind my back and let me out of the cell into Tom's arms. Tom took a hold of my arms and walked me down the hall.
"No need to be nervous, you don't even have to talk if you don't want to." Said Tom.
I looked at him then back in front of me ready to walk into the courtroom. Tom brought me into the courtroom and walked me to where I was going to be sitting. I saw all of Tate's Family and none of mine. I felt helpless, anxious, and I was ready to run out already. I sat down on my chair and looked towards the front of the room while people murmured behind me. The officer came up to me and uncuffed me so I could move free. Doors were locked, there was no escape for me. The judge started my trial.
"We all are here today to start the trial of Tate Andrew's murder. The defendant's name is Cathrine Danielle Clark. If the Defendant is found guilty the death penalty is advised." Said the Judge.
The room gasped and I looked up at the Judge. If I was found Guilty I could be Killed? I need to get out of here as soon as I can. I've told myself this one too many times. I don't think I'll be able to get out of here. I may never see my home again or feel the feeling of the burning concrete on the bottom of my feet. I couldn't breathe.
