The Kids Of The Youth Detention Center, Chapter 5, We Are The Champions

The next morning, I woke up, I felt quite good and I had my daily stretch and I made my way to say hello and good morning to the other inmates .

” Hey guys, how are we ?”, I said as I walked into the room .

” Hey ”, everybody replied with a smile on their faces .

” How are you feeling, Carson ?”, I asked .

” Yeah, I’m feeling better, still a bit sore though, but better then yesterday ”, he replied, as he was stretching his arms .

” Oh good ”, I said .

” I have been thinking of throwing a party, what do you reckon ?”, Miles suggested .

” Yeah, that’s a very good idea ”, Carson replied .

” Yeah, do you think that Jay would be fine with this ?”, I asked .

” Yeah, he should be fine with it ”, Dylan replied .

” Ok, I think it’s better if we check in with him first, just in case, don’t want to end up in trouble ”, I said . ” I won’t be long, I’ll be back in a sec ”, I said, and I went to go and find Jay .

”Hi Jay, can I have a chat with you for a minute ?”, I asked .

” Yeah, what is it ?”, he asked, as he stood there with his hands on his hips .

” Well, you know on how we have been having it rough for the last couple of days ”, I said .

” Yeah, I know of it ”, he replied .

” Ok well, can we throw a party ?”, I asked .

” Um yes of course, you guys deserve it, you’ve been sensible, why not go out with a bang ?”, he replied with a smile on his face .

” Ok great, you are the best, thank you ”, I said. ” Where shall we get the party stuff, is there a lock up or something ?”, I asked .

” No, of course not, why would we keep a lock up in a youth prison, people and kids don’t really throw parties here, they come here for depressing reasons, all of them had a life of crime and it’s a time for re thinking their life decision, but you guys can throw a party if you like ?”, Jay replied .

” Oh ok, thanks for the permission and the consent, we’ll get going ”, I said as I went to join to the rest of the inmates .

” Ok guys, I have some news ”, I said, as I walked in the room .

” What is it ?”, Carson asked .

” The party is on ”, I screamed and chanced .

” Ayyyy ”, everybody cheered with excitement .

” Let’s get this party started ”, I screamed . So I turned on the radio and played some tunes. So we got up and danced across the room, absolutely having the time of our lives, and danced and sang like we were gonna die tomorrow and I savored every minute of it . Then Jay entered the room and saw us prancing around, enjoying ourselves and he took it upon himself to join us, so he did .

” Is there space for one more ?”, he asked, as he stood in the corner of the room .

” Yes, of course, come ”, I said, as I stopped and had a smile on my face . And he started dancing and I swear, he is the worst dancer in the world, he started moving like a chicken, I just didn’t know what to do, except for just standing there, pretending that I didn’t even agnolege him dancing, I just focused on Carson . After the party was over, I started writing an update in my journal, I just have done so many things, I needed to capture them, so I’d have stories to tell to my future children . I walked into the rooms where the other inmates were and I saw them fast asleep, I guess the party did the trick, and I was knackered myself, so I drifted off in five seconds .

”Tomorrow is another day, I wonder what tomorrow will bring ”
