A/n: Part II!
Disclaimer: I don't own HSM or its characters.
Winter of 2006 [By now, Sharpay, Ryan, Mr. Evans, and Miss Darbus moved to Albuquerque. Sharpay and Ryan never found out about what Mr. Evans did to Mrs. Evans. They thought that Mr. Evans just started going out with Miss Darbus after he divorced Mrs. Evans (now Miss Greggs) for going to jail. Sharpay, Ryan, and Mr. Evans felt one thing had to be done, though. They felt they had to go back to New York and visit Judy in jail.
As Sharpay, Ryan, and Mr. Evans made their way past a large man who was supposed to be watching them in the visiting room, they gazed upon Judy sitting in the corner on an old, bare chair.
Sharpay examined her mother. She looked about the same, except she had bags under her eyes, frown lines, and was wearing a wistful expression on her beautiful face.
"Mom..." whispered Sharpay as tears filled hers, Ryan's, and Judy's eyes.
"Sharpay...Ryan..." said Judy woefully. Judy couldn't think of the right words to say. She didn't know where to start. "I-I'm so sorry..."
She started sobbing into her hands and collapsed onto her knees.
"You don't understand...I don't expect you to...you never will know...no one will ever know why...but what I've seen...it didn't give me the right to do what I did to you... you have no idea how sorry I am..."
The twins listened carefully to their mom's rambling.
"Mom...why can't you tell us?" asked Ryan.
"There are just some things you kids aren't meant to know...maybe I'll tell you in the future...when you're older..." said Judy as she dried her tired eyes.
"Ten more minutes," growled the burly guard.
"Kids, I want to learn about you while I have the chance. What high school do you go to?"
"It's called East High," said Sharpay to her feet.
"East High...and do you kids do any extra activities there?"
"Drama club," said Ryan.
"Ahh... trying to take after your mother?" asked Judy, but then she realized what she said and mumbled on, "Not take after me...I don't want you to be like me now, in a lonely jail compartment miserably counting down the days until your let out...I just meant...drama...I...never mind. So, are you guys dating anyone? Got any crushes?"
Sharpay stared at her feet and Ryan blushed.
"I..." started Ryan.
"Come on, you can tell me," urged Judy.
"I kinda...like this girl name Kelsi..." said Ryan.
"Aww, that's great! What about you, Shar?" asked Judy.
"I'd rather not talk about it," said Sharpay briefly.
"Oh come on sweetie!"
"No! It's none of your business! This is something I'd tell my mother! You've been nothing to us!" screamed Sharpay and tears rolled down her cheeks. She quickly exited out of the room.
"Ryan...I'm sorry..." said Judy.
"Yeah..." said Ryan, not knowing what to say. "Mom...she asked a guy named Troy Bolton out a few days ago, and he rejected her."
"Oh..."
"Time's up!," said the guard.
"No! Please..." said Judy.
"Sorry, time is up!" repeated the man.
"Bye Ryan...I love you...tell Sharpay I love her, too."
"Bye." said Ryan nonchalantly.
"Judy," said Thomas.
"Thomas."
At that, Ryan and Mr. Evans left the room, leaving Judy in tears and sorrow.
