Anders is driving in a frenzy. He just wants to get home to sleep through his depraved thoughts and clear his mind. He takes the last turn leading to his home when the dashboard screen flickers on.

Phone connected to Bluetooth, the screen displays the caller; Orion.

He ignores the call, but answers when Orion rings him for the third time.

“Hey.” He answers, not bothering to hide the exhaustion in his voice.

Orion doesn't catch it anyway. “Hey man! What's up?”

“Why are you calling without letting up?” Anders skips the pleasantries.

“There's a situation regarding the case-”

The case.

Anders has had enough of the case. He loves his job, but since getting involved with this case, for the first time ever, he reconsiders his career choice.

“-you need to be here. Please.”

Anders' mind only picks up on the last of Orion's words. He sighs. Scrap going home and being alone.

“Where are you?”

“At the state prison. That's where-”

“I'll meet you there in twenty.” Anders cuts him and en

    “How is he?” Irene rushes towards Electra as she steps out. She withdraws, her subconscious hit with a reminder of her hypocrisy.“He's fine.” Electra responds, oblivious to Irene's inner turmoil. “Just drowning in the ocean of despair. He sees no hope for the situation.”“Meaning? He doesn't think he has a chance?” Irene's tone is draped in wonder.“Something like that. If fate wills. That's how he put it.” Exhaustion fills her voice. “We should go. We'll do what we can to help from the outside.”Irene stands stunned. Nikas is resigning himself to fate. It'll make her job easy. No one would blame her for doing nothing. But it saddens her to know Nikas is giving up. She sighs and walks out.Electra has already reached the car. She stands by the door, waiting for Irene to come open the doors.Irene appears. She walks around the car to the drive side. “So what are we going to do since he's not cooperating?”“I think -”“Electra!” Someone calls from behind. Electra's response to Irene's

    “Nikas.” Electra cries.Nikas keeps her close, smoothing her hair like he's done since he became her big brother. He disengages from the hug, looking down at her with tenderness.“I'm so glad you're alright.” He says.Electra sniffs. He guides her to the table and chairs.“I was so worried,” he admits once they sit. “I imagined the worst.” Electra, too emotional to speak, gives her brother an apologetic look. A look that expresses just how sorry she is for making him worry. For not coming to see him sooner. For abandoning him when he needed her most.Nikas reads right through her unspoken words.“It's okay.” Nikas reassures her. “I'm just really glad that you're fine.”“How are you?” Electra finally finds her voice.Nikas shrugs. “Better now that I know you're fine.”Electra keeps her wet eyes on him, her gaze expectant.“Oh c'mon, Electra ““You know that'll never be good enough for me.”“But it'll have to do. For now.”“When? You're refusing help. You said you didn't want to see yo

    The question throws Irene off balance. She trips, almost falling to the hard floor.Mr Kleon's strong hands reach for her, catching her arm before she falls face flat.Irene's breathing is ragged. Not from the fright of her near fall, but from the contact of the man holding her.“Are you alright?” Electra is quickly by Irene's side. Her hand gently grasps Irene's other elbow. Her worried gaze scans Irene's body for any injuries.“You're shaken.” Kleon observes. He looks at Electra. “Get her water.” He orders.Electra nods. She takes a step towards the prison, then a step back, hesitant and confused. Indecisive if she should get water from the dispenser in the prison reception area or go get water from a convenient store around the corner.One look from her father and Electra is walking through the parking lot. She steps out of the large parking space onto the pavement by the main road realizing too late that the nearest store is two blocks away.Electra mentally palms her face. Just a

    “Who?” Irene asks, not catching Electra's breathed words.“My father.” As if Mr Kleon hears the distant call, he turns at that moment. His eyes intuitively find Electra's. It doesn't take him minutes to recognize his estranged daughter.He's suddenly distracted from his conversation as his expression takes on a displeased shift.Irene's gaze roves. Shifting back to the people standing at the distance. “Where?” Irene looks back at Electra's face, trying to find the person through Electra's eyes. She turns again to the entrance, the answer to her question becomes clear as the man walks up to them.Irene’s gaze settles on the man. She stiffens as his face becomes clearer. The recognition is instant. Her mind is no longer there. Her consciousness has veered off into the past. A very dark past.Mr Kleon reaches the women and stops, planting his feet rigidly in front of Electra, his eyes intent on his daughter.Electra avoids meeting his eyes. “You're back.”“Yes. I flew in a week ago.” H

    Irene watches Electra linger by the door, staring at Anders' parked car. Electra listens to the soft hum of his engine and the smooth transition onto the road. Pain lodges in her heart as she watches him drive off.She wants him gone, and at the same time, wants him to return. She wants him to talk to her, to give her an explanation for his actions. For deceiving her and her brother. For being two-faced.“Why did you do that?” Electra jolts at the sound of Irene's voice. She pushes the door close, hardening her expression before turning to face Irene.“I wanted him to know that I know the truth.” Electra's tone is flat and veneered with anger.“Have you ever considered the fact that he may have nothing to do with any of this?”Electra’s gaze shoots up towards Irene in a glare.“Didn't you see all the signs of guilt written over him? Didn't you notice how evasive he was? He avoided every direct question I threw at him, choosing to manipulate me by feigning concern for me and my broth
