Meanwhile, in Stastleâs womenâs prison, Melody was going through a living nightmare.
Everyone else was sleeping while she was locked in a dark, cramped room.
The floor was damp and cold.
She could only curl up in a corner, unable to get any sleep.
With each passing moment, her legs grew more and more numb.
But she refused to lie down and sleep on the wet, muddy floor.
Her last shred of dignity wouldnât allow it.
There wasnât even a blanket there.
She could only hold herself tightly, trying to ward off the cold.
The wounds all over her body were causing her excruciating pain.
Every day felt like a never-ending nightmare to her.
At noon, another prisoner intentionally made things difficult for her.
The woman spat in her food and stomped on her face, and tried to make her eat the saliva-laden meal.
Melody resolutely refused.
As a result, she was not only beaten up but also punished with three days in confinement for wasting food.
Helplessly, Melody held herself and sobbed quietly.
Her eyes were swollen like walnuts.
She didnât wipe away her tears because it was too cold, and she was trembling like a leaf.
She had only been in prison for a few days, but she had already experienced beatings, punishment, and forced labor every single day.
It was driving her to the brink of insanity!
âLucinda! I hate you! I hate you so much! Youâre the one who did this to me.
You will die a gruesome death! I wonât let you get away with it!
Iâll drink your blood and tear you apart! Bitch! Bitch!â
Due to the swelling in her mouth, her words were muffled as she repeated them over and over, grinding her teeth in anger.
If it werenât for the strong hatred and anger she felt, she might not have been able to hold on and keep going.
Creakâ¦
The thick iron door of the room was opened.
In the silent night, the sound was particularly jarring.
â0437, someone wants to visit you.
Get up and come with me.
And keep it quiet!â
A flashlight illuminated Melodyâs swollen face.
Blinded by the sudden light, she struggled to open her eyes and felt even more disoriented.
Someone was visiting her in the middle of the night?
Who could it be?
