All Chapters of Love, Scars and Revenge : Chapter 21 - Chapter 29

NICOLE'S POV "How long are you going to be here for?" I asked Shelly as we all sat on our regular table at the dining hall. After our little incident in the bathroom weeks ago, she has made it a point of duty to hang around Ruth and I, she hasn't made any wrong or suspicious move yet but I am watching her closely."Five years." She said casually... That's a lot, I didn't expect to hear that at all. I wonder what she did, although I don't think I should ask. She doesn't seem like someone that will want to discuss it with me after all, we are not that close."Wow, that's such a long time, what did you do?" Ruth asked, I guess I am not the only one curious about her crime."Arson." She said with a smile on her face. I really don't know the deal with her but she doesn't seem to feel bad that she's here at all and I wonder why."Is that not the crime of deliberately starting a fire with intent to cause damage?" I asked curiously because I remember coming across it online when I was makin

NICOLE'S POV "Well maybe because I suddenly cancelled on you, shouldn't that be enough reason for you to be upset with me." I reasoned because I have never seen a man that is as chilled as him."I'm not upset at all, yes I was beginning to look forward to it but I can't be upset because you cancelled something you suggested yourself. I understand that you have a lot of things on your plate and the whole conjugal visit thing might not be the right time besides have you seen you, how can I be mad at my pretty, sexy trouble maker?" He teased and it made me laugh."You are so cunning." I teased as I gave him a hug. "But you are the best and I am so lucky to have you." I said truthfully just as I got a glimpse of the clock.This is the first time that I have come into his office and lost complete track of time, we have less than five minutes to go and I didn't even realize it till now. "No babe, I am the lucky one and I really need you to get out of here as soon as possible because one h

NICOLE'S POV "I'm so exhausted." I said by the time we returned to the cell after the activities of the day."Yeah me too, today was fun though." Ruth noted and she's right."Yeah, it's was fun." But honestly, I am over the type of fun that we have here. I just want something new and different.I climbed to my top bunk and I checked my burner phone to see if I had any missed calls or something and to my surprise, I had five missed calls from Mike and it got me worried, did something happen again?If he is calling this much, then something has happened, probably something bad... I need to call him, I didn't bother to ask Ruth to keep watch since it's already very late, no one will come around here any more."Mike, sorry I missed your call. You know how it is here, we basically don't have a life of our own." I explained."It's fine boss.""Did something happened?" I asked worriedly because he has never called me this much."Yes something happened, something good. You remember I told yo

NICOLE'S POV "When is your birthday?" Asher suddenly asked while I was enjoying my ice cream and chocolate."Ummm, well it's still far. It's in October and I hate celebrating my birthday." I mean who wouldn't hate birthday's after what I experienced.My parents were killed on my birthday and I was brutally raped by the gang leader who has somehow managed to escape death for six years now. "Why did you ask?" "Well I just remembered that my birthday is around the corner and I was wondering if I have missed your birthday already." My birthday is like two months away and I haven't celebrated since the incident that happened six years ago and I don't intend to start now."It doesn't matter, I hate my birthday and I don't like to celebrate or even remember the day." I have never discussed my birthday with him and I didn't care to ask him about his birthday because I prefer to avoid birthday related topics but I was wrong to assume he doesn't care about birthdays. "When is your birthday?"
