“Ahhh!”
I inhaled sharply and I tried to fight the icy cold water. I couldn’t believe they were hosing me down as if I was some dirty criminal. I had nowhere to run to and I steeled myself to go through this harsh treatment. Although my hands were free, the silver collar remained on my neck with a chain attached to it. After the cold shower, they performed a cavity search on me and then gave me the most unalluring outfit to wear.
It was some kind of recycled fabric with an off-white color. It was rough to the touch and only slightly better than a potato sack. But there was no use in complaining since everything I’ve said had fallen on deaf ears. My only relief was that I was getting a trial. I’ll have a chance to prove my innocence instead of being taken straight to the gallows.
