Chapter 10-Better
DW's medication was adjusted when the program's director noticed her acting strange. DW felt better than she had in a long time, and she obeyed the program's rules perfectly. She even made her bed right.
Time went by and DW focused on improving. Her plan was never put in place. She wanted to look good for her sister even if she couldn't see her.
A few months later, DW got another letter from her parents. They were working on visiting her because she'd been doing better, and DW felt proud. She wanted to see her parents and told the director about it. The director was trying to make that happen for her, but her good behavior had to continue.
"It will," DW promised. The director was pleased, and after two more weeks, DW was allowed to send a letter to her parents. She sent one to Kate instead. Kate wrote back the next week with a line or 2 from their parents. They all missed DW and wished she'd made better decisions. DW felt the same.
DW decided the best thing to do to get ahead would be to write a letter to the director, the officials of the parole board, and anyone else associated with her charges. She said she was sorry and that she'd learned her lesson.
She wanted to prove herself. She sent off the letters hoping for the best.
