Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Anna’s public trial was about to begin in two days. In the last few days, Joshua had visited the detention center several times to see Anna. He claimed that the best thing to do at this point was to say in court that she had acted in self-defense. Meanwhile, he believed there was a possibility

she would be found guilty, which made the case trickier.

A day before the trial, Anna went to the cafeteria after finishing her morning study session. At that moment, Zoe, who shared a dorm with her, stopped her. Zoe said she needed to speak with Anna, so they went into a nearby restroom. She was flushed from running and appeared to have something very important to say. However, she didn’t explain anything but placed a handkerchief in Anna’s hand.

The handkerchief was heavy and appeared to contain something. Anna wanted to open it to look inside, but Zoe grabbed her hand and stopped her.

Anna wiped Zoe’s tears away and said, “Relax. Tell me what happened.”

“Ijust found out I’m going to prison after breakfast,” When she finished, Zoe lowered her head. Her sobs echoed in the small restroom.
