SEAMUS & LAURA ~ at Sing Sing
Seamus took a quick look back into the greenhouse. He knew that it was surprisingly early for him to be walking out. He would usually stay in there just before it was lunch time but he just wanted to do something different today. It didn’t feel like it should be a day. Not with what was happening outside the safety of the prison walls. He slowly walked through the hallways towards the cafeteria.. Not acknowledging anyone he passed by, they didn’t really notice him walking by either.
As he stopped in front of the cafeteria he noticed how quiet it was.
There was nothing wrong with the quiet but it wasn’t the norm for the middle of the day. It was usually when people were bustling around the common areas of the prison. Especially right outside the cafeteria which was always one of the busier areas within Sing Sing.
It didn’t stop him from walking in with a feeling of wanting to help. It was the least he could do since he couldn’t exactly help the people that left to.. well, to do whatever they were planning to do. He quickly moved through the cafeteria to the kitchen in the back.
“Hello,” he called out as he smelled chocolate and saw Laura standing at one of the counters. “Hi, Laura. Are you all alone back here?”
Trying as hard as he could he couldn’t hide the smile that the familiar face caused to appear on his face. He remembered how nice it was to talk to her in the greenhouse. He had completely forgot that she mentioned that she worked in the kitchen.
