Sara's hand smashed the newspaper against the table near the empty coffee cup. She was tired of this absurd game. The assumption of torrid romance between the governor's daughter and one of the fugitives was a banquet for the yellow press. Belleck's trick had been successful, after a week no one cared about the prison security problem, the inexistent affair was the only topic in the media circus and it was worsening her existent. Even her last night date asked about her relationship with Scofield. Of course this question ended the dinner.

Sara Tancredi closed her eyes leaning on the back of her seat, her fingers massaged her temples. Fives second of quietness was all she wanted but the phone began to screech.

The auricular on her ear screamed, "Will you tell me the truth?"

"Good morning dad." She said with a tired tone voice. Since the escape her father's phone call had a single topic.

"I can't understand, you can have any men, why him?" It was useless to explain again and again the same thing, it was a deaf's chat. He had decided that his revel daughter wanted openly embarrass him one more time. For thousand time she was about to explain that the press lied when her father assured, "You did it on purpose, right? You want to ruin my political carrier."

Him, him and him, nothing else mattered. Fury always had been a bad advisor "No dad. I slept with him because he is amazing on bed!" Hardly those words break away from her mouth she regretted mutter them.

After a lingering silence all her father could say was, "I knew it."

His triumphal tone was too much to bear. "It was a pleasure to hear your monologue dad." She cut the communication. Indeed there wasn't any communication to cut, it never existed.

Her day had begun badly and it promised to be worse.

She crossed the main entrance of her building, she was ten minutes late. She almost reached her car's door when a tall man stopped her. "Sara Tancredi." With his black suit and black glasses all his gesture screamed I'm-governmental-agent. His father was trespassing any logical limit this time. She was to protest when the man, showing his badge, assured. "We have to talk to about Burrow's flee."

"Agent…" carefully she read the name on the badge, "Kellerman I'm…"

"…late." He finished the sentence. "I know." He pointed to a car where a long dark haired woman, dressed in a black suit, was waiting with her hands on the wheel. "We can take you to your job and talk."

Sara hesitated and then she grabbed her cell-phone. If something she learned being a powerful politician's daughter was to distrust, two kidnaps' attend had been valuable lessons. "I hope you don't mind if I verify your identity."

Her request was unexpected, he stepped back. He had orders. She was the daughter of the governor but she admitted to her father her relationship with one of the fugitives, the agency taped her confection. She became the key to get Burrows back in jail.

His fake smile faded from his face. "Miss Tancredi we had orders to escort you to a quite place where we can peacefully chat." The steel of the gun pressed her ribs. "Do you understand?"

In the moment she climbed the car she would lose any chance to escape so Sara obstinately grasped her posture. "You and your two hulks won't intimidate me."

"Two hulks?" He spun his head facing a gun's barrel upon his face. Another man was aiming his partner on the car. Who were those men? Was another government's faction involved in this problem? Without a word a tall blond man with a thick mustache took his weapon. "You can't take her from us."

The man smiled showing his perfect teeth. "We do." She raised her head astonished. It couldn't be true. He beamed. "Could you come with us?" His voice was unmistakable. Gallantly he took her hand adding, "…please." A chill traveled through her spine. If he had not spoken she would never recognize him. "You are safe with me."

It was illogical, she knew it, but something inside her told her that he was trustful as always. She swallowed and barely nodded. She never expected to see him again.

It was foolish but she can't hold back the smile on her face.

He smiled back.
