Another day has gone by, and I’m aware of the minutes

trickling away like sands draining rapidly through an

The final moments of my life are running away from me while I’m stuck in this cell, and I don’t even know when it’s all going to be over, only that Karolina said they’d moved up the

execution date.

Axel and I have talked escape plans, but I know it’s more for distraction than any real ability to be able to do anything.

abilities, I can still be killed.
