Milo moved down the stark prison hallway, his shoulders curled inward against the palpable weight of watching eyes. The heavy steel door clanged shut behind him, sealing him in. He flung his sparse belongings onto the top bunk, the rusted frame groaning under the weight. Leaning his back against the chill of the enamel sink, he pressed his fingers to his temples, the relentless buzz of the fluorescent lights drilling into his skull. Twenty years old. Five years inside for a burglary he only glimpsed from the driver's seat. He stayed frozen there, the enormity of the sentence settling into his bones like a deep, permanent chill.
