Devon is woken up again by the lock on the cell door opening. It is the day after her meeting with her lawyer and that means that she has to now leave her cell and get her own food, get her toiletries, and get assigned a job to do. She has to participate in all of these things in order for her to impress the judge and her lawyer. Devon straightened her cell and then went down and got her toiletries and asked the new officer what she had to do for her chore. The lady gave her the job of cleaning up after each meal. when Devon was standing there talking to her she touched that desk and then noticed the sign that said "TOUCH THE CONSOLE GET A O!!!"
The lady said that it was fine because she didn't know but to not do it again. After that Devon managed to eat by herself with no one bothering her and then she cleaned up. After that she had to go to school just like all of the other girls. The teacher had her sit down and then she did role call. The teacher Ms. Coughran called every ones name and while she did this Devon familiarised herself with the room.
The lesson that day was on poetry. This was hard for Devon because it took her back to the night she read poetry with the baby's father. She had about a four page flash back to when the where walking and reading poems that where written in chalk. When she comes back she a few of the girls are reading their poems and the girl next to Devon starts to pick on her again.
