you are getting out tonight is all I keep hearing as troy explains the plan to me. I’ve been wanting to leave this place for two years now, I’m so excited, I’ll see Mother. How is she?
“ I can’t wait to see Mama,” I whisper happily to troy, he smiles but shakes his head.
“ you can’t see her,” he says in a sympathetic tone, what does he mean I can’t see my mother, is he crazy? I’ve been separated from her for two years I look at him unsure what to say but he’s serious. I know my stepfather died, I overheard Marion talking about it that’s how they got me.
