The prison cell chills your skin, the relentless hum of fluorescent lights painting stark shadows across the concrete. Crammed together in the tight space are you, Shiloh, Josiah, Elijah, Judah, little Jocelyn, Micah, and Michelle—the air is thick enough to choke on. Elijah’s knuckles whiten, his voice breaking as he snaps, "I didn’t do it!" Michelle cocks her head, a dry smirk on her lips. "Always knew you were a criminal." Judah sighs, the sound heavy with exhaustion. "He was the criminal, and WE got arrested." Elijah repeats the words, louder, more frantic, until Josiah cuts in softly, "Then who did...?" Elijah’s eyes find yours, you, searching for a shred of faith in the gathering storm.
