He sneered at me, "Yeah?" he asked rudely

"Hey, I’ to ignore the rude way he was looking athe‘d stepped in

"Cole? Let h sohtly so I could see up the hallway, I didn’t want anyone sneaking up onout of trouble in the last four years, as long as you see trouble co, you can either face it head on or walk the other way That hat I had learnt, and I planned on sticking to it even noas out

"Yeah, he you are," he said ticking me off on sorabbed a set of keys He sat down at the desk and put a couple of forms into a little metal drawer, he shoved the drawer and it popped outany chances at all I could barely stop ood i then on the botto at the for the drawer "Ok so there aren’t very many rules here, just try and stay out of trouble If I were you, I would be careful not to go out in the dark too much, make sure you lock your door, even when you’re in the roo valuable out with you, or lock it in one of the safes here inside the office," he said, nodding over his shoulder at a row of little safes built into the wall

I nodded and he continued "You have a front door key The door gets locked at ten so after that you’ll have to let yourself in Your rooh to rabbed the set of keys from the bottom, "You have your own shower, toilet and sink in your room If you want to have a bath, there’s a bathrooed subconsciously as he said it I couldn’t help but laugh, maybe I should have just asked Brett to kill me after all

"Right, thanks Hey, do you know of anyone round here looking to hire sohed then I saw the smile slowly fade froht, sorry I thought that was a joke Err… I don’t know of anyone What kind of thing you interested in?" he asked curiously I sood with cars but useless at anything else

"I’ll take anything," I said honestly I figured I’d need to stack shelves for a while just toelse, obviously I needed to get out of this crap hole as soon as possible

"If I hear of anything I’ll leave a note in your pigeon hole, that’s where youfroain, this time at the shelves with room numbers written on the around for the stairs

"First floor, turn left at the top, and good luck…" he trailed off with a sht," Ithe railings and walls on rime and dirt Wow, if Brett doesn’t kill ross infection or so that I‘ll catch froh the number just said 34 instead of 134 I unlocked the three locks and shoved the door open, preparing ht I did anyway Even I was shocked, there was literally nothing in here apart fro table Not even a closet, nice I shut the door quickly, locking it fro on the floor The bed didn’t look too bad though, which was a bonus The mattress looked clean, and the sheets that were piled at the end actually looked new, so at least I wouldn’t have to sleep in other peoples filth

There was a little sink in one corner, I went over to the door near the sink and opened it to find a tiny little wet roohed quietly to myself, looks like I could kill two birds with one stone and shohile I’hing, this place ful, I kind of wished I was back in juvie, at least that was clean and co, all I could hear was the sounds of shouting and fighting fro around in the rooh, I needed to get a job, and I needed to get a car, then I could get the hell out of this place One job for Brett and ed into a blue shirt, grabbed the photo ofand shoved it intothatit here, just in case so under ht as well start now

I actually left the bedsit in quite high spirits I irl again, thankfully, I just didn’t need that kind of attention at all I headed to the nearest stores and started asking around A couple of the and then they backed off straight away It was obviously coe what kind of people lived at that place, scu wasters, just likepeople I was in the process of et an interview
