Chapter 24

RAQUEL

Although the environment we were in consisted of noise as waiters moved around the restaurant catering to many customers' needs. It appeared neither of us minded the noise as we sat either side of the table staring at each other wondering where to start.

"So what made you change your mind?" she asked placing her elbows on the table, her curiosity shown in her body language.

I momentarily looked around the restaurant somehow to ensure my mind that indeed no one was watching us and listening in on this conversation. I swallowed past the lump in my throat along with my pride as I said," Someone decided it would be entertaining to throw someone very important to me into prison."

She kept gazing at me, waiting I'm sure for further information. When I showed no signs of continuing on she huffed appearing annoyed suddenly.
