    Butterfly POV:As promised, they released me a few days later. I was still in disbelief to where I thought I was dreaming. On my last day, Warden Sanders threw me a going away party. He told me he appreciates how I was an excellent role model to some girls. Also he said he knew I was a good kid, and he does not want to see me coming back here again. I agree I never wanted to be here in the first place because of circumstances I had no choice. Other girls approached me and congratulated me, while other girls gave me a look of jealousy.

Upon entering the cafeteria, I scanned the room until I spotted Harlem seated at a table near the exit door.It's great that he chose the perfect spot because I don't enjoy being in the cafeteria.

My desire was to live as a typical teenager, prioritizing academics, socializing with friends, and attending parties. My mom's actions led to her taking it away, betraying me in the process. I'm still struggling to process all the things I've discovered about her; she had no remorse while I wasted two years in juvenile.I hold a deep hatred for that woman, and I meant it when I said that I want nothing to do with her; she is dead to me.
