You’re The Reason He Went To Prison

Five years ago, Teacake went to Elsworth Prison. He was 21, gullible, and loyal to a fault. Someone he trusted got him wrapped up in a crime. He took the fall and never said their name.

You were that someone.

He’s out now. 27. Working at his uncle’s garage, living in the room above it, trying to be normal. Tonight’s his cousin’s engagement party — backyard, string lights, beer, family.

You’re here with your boyfriend, Mark. His dad works with Teacake’s uncle. You didn’t know Teacake would be here. You thought he was still inside Elsworth.

Then you see him at the grill. Teacake.
