Greg Finch had pushed his empty tray which once held his breakfast through a slot in his cell so a prison guard could collect it. This was finally the day that he would be arraigned for his involvement in the murder of Odilia. He knew he would get some time locked up but he wanted to try and squeeze out of it. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5XvUBVter
Greg looked around his cell at the gray cemented walls and he wondered what went wrong. He was a good kid growing up; an A, B, student, loved art and appreciated his family. But what happened? What switch was turned off? He wasn’t even sure himself. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleOKMIBuaS
A few hours later, one of the guards called out his name “Finch! Get your stuff ready we’re heading out in five minutes.” Greg smiled to himself as he tried to look as presentable as he could. He fixed his hair in the small mirror in his cell then brushed his teeth. Five minutes on the dot the prison guard arrived back to his cell, handcuffed him and led him to the transportation van then Greg was headed off to court.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHA4tH5UvF

“The State of Pennsylvania for Odilia Zink versus Greg Finch. How do you plead?” the judge addressed the court with Greg, his attorney, and the prosecutor present.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MkKr6N50o
“Not guilty,” Greg said. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrhdj23oCD
“Do you request bail?”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡME4EvBRM6x
“Yes. At $5,000.” Greg’s attorney said.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34AXpPAxxz
The prosecutor then fired back “Your Honor we request no bail. Mr. Finch has been known to flee from the police. He was also involved with holding a civilian hostage and injuring a detective during that same hostage situation.”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7JsNqnLol
“Is there a case running on that?” the judge said glancing at his notes. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdRcxDybuQ
“Yes, your Honor. Also, Mr. Finch is a suspect in a sexual assault case.”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajAfxA4MLG
“Is there evidence on that case as well?”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVqcgmqEAW
“No your Honor. The FVSA is still working on gathering evidence and the investigation is getting, let's say complicated.” 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3tEPWUNCL
“I’m sorry Counselor, but I can’t take inconsideration his bail because he has not been charged in that case. However, since there is evidence that he held a woman hostage and shot a detective-”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjVAc2cowy
“This is his first offense-” Greg’s attorney yelled.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWgQwm16UZ
“Please quiet down sir. Anyway since this is a murder and the injury of a detective, but this is also his first offense the bail will be set at $15,000. Thank you. Next case.” Greg barely heard the judge’s gavel ring out in the courtroom as he smiled at him. He was then led back to a temporary holding cell before being transported back to prison. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7oi7sOeAB
When he finally arrived back in prison, the inmates were out of their cells and at recreation time. Playing basketball, lifting weights, taking classes or at the library trying to fight their cases or reading. Greg was happy that a phone was available so he dialed his uncle’s number. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5ucnvyljM
He then waited a moment or two before his uncle answered, “Hello?” 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5xWsZ9IjV
Greg could hear the tiredness in his uncle’s voice. “Hey, it’s me, Greg.”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgA20w6DZK
“Hi, Greg how are you?”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eZrtdFdHm
“I’m doing okay. Tired and the food is terrible, but at least it’s something.”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMaTsDTUe3
“You’re right. What do you need?”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyN1IFkJEbJ
“Why do you assume I need something?”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbmRRMtgmO
“Because when you call me you’re always asking me for something.” 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8ybJVpnBE
Greg didn’t deny what his uncle said, so he continued, “Let me tell you what’s going on. They set my bail.”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXNoPKvTuG
“How much?” 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGb8ig3f0Jm
“Fifteen grand.”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFaDAr4jJV
“That’s ridiculous, why is it so much?”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5zTV9Gkw8
“It was originally $5,000 but because of that incident with the detective and all the other cases, the judge upped it to $15,000. So I’m going to need some help.”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEw2Z9BGQg
“Okay. This is the last money I’m going to give you. I don’t have the time, patience or energy to be helping you clean up your messes. When do you need the money?”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeSPtvMZie
“As soon as you can. Today would be great.”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCH9DzR6NwL
“Fine. Do you need to be picked up too?”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxEwAW5ElD
“Sure. I can’t go back to Grandma’s anymore. Can I stay at your farmhouse?”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEIotAhZGS
“Yes. See you soon Greg. Goodbye.”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Xi9YyaK4b
“Bye.” 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡld7F416TEX
Greg hung up the phone and walked into the prison’s library. He began to browse the few books that were there. He checked out a book on painting landscapes. Then took it back to his cell he flipped through its colorful pages. What stuck out to him was a photo of a beautiful countryside with blue skies, freshly cut green grass and a wooden house. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVTSyFp0zU
As Greg began to paint on one of his canvases he added a few extra details. A car, two little children and a woman in a pastel sundress walking from the house to the car. He drew a man stepping out of the car as well. Greg then smiled as he wrote Greg and Sarah at the top of the painting. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡws2DpIuURX
This was his dream to be with Sarah. His infatuation and obsession with her grew day after day. She was even in his dreams and sometimes his nightmares. Well his version of her anyway. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgbncsyFce
The hours ticked on buy, but Greg barely seemed to notice. A prison guard for the evening shift called out and said “Greg pack up your things, you’re being released.”287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPzKSsIyuH
“What? Greg said turning around from his almost finished painting. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvWwLiQseK
“Your bail has been paid, let’s go.” He could tell the guard looked annoyed. Greg then grabbed his paintings, a notebook and a small bag full of knick knacks. He was then lead to where he could be released to freedom. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEvMmnSS4J
His uncle was waiting for him outside of the car. He handed Greg a cigarette and a lighter. “Thanks.” 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHgRSuzD1L
“Ready to go?” 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm42VbWOyEA
“Yeah.” 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7sNUEJa26
When Greg finally arrived at the farmhouse he was ecstatic. His uncle had left and so after he started the fire, he prepared dinner. There wasn’t much food except for a few cans of soup and drinks. Settling down with a bowl of soup and some strong coffee he sat in front of the fireplace. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDtboNoFkK
He stared out of the gigantic window in the living room as the moon shone brightly and scattered stars twinkled in the sky. He thought that maybe out here he could start a new life. He just had to beat his case. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oFXJjLv0l
