Life After Prison

Chapter 5

“Let’s go in. I’ll cook some more food for us!” Judith said with a smile.

Severin’s mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts when he entered his old room. It was clean though, and Severin felt a burst of warmth when he saw it.

Sure enough, the people who cared most about him were none other than his parents. It looked as though they came in to clean his room from time to time.

When Severin opened the closet, he discovered several of his old clothes. They had aged through the years but still remained spotless and clean.

Judith walked in some time later and smiled at Severin while explaining, “We clean your room once in a while when you’re not here. Your clothes are probably a little small though, and they must be out of fashion by now.

I have money, and I’m going to let you and Dad live in a big villa in the future. You’ve suffered your whole life because of me, while I’ve only suffered for a few years. I can’t possibly spend your money like that!”

“Do you really have money on you?” Judith looked at Severin and was still a little skeptical. she believed that the generous person he met in prison would have given him a sum of money, probably in excess of tens of thousands. After all, if Severin had not paid the remaining debt of twenty-six thousand to the six men earlier, there would have been no explanation as to why they would just leave. Both Judith and Maurice had known their characters after almost five years of having to deal with them!
