Authors Note: I just want to say Happy Independence Day to my American readers. I hope you all have a good day.
Nicky laid on her bunk crying. She missed Lorna to bits. At first Tiara was just ignoring the sobs from Nicky but then she'd had enough. She put her pencil and her notebook under her pillow and got up. She looked at Nicky who was facing the wall.
"Hey, she'll be ok. Come sit with me", Tiara said.
Nicky got down from her bunk and sat in Tiara's. She cried on Tiara's shoulder until she was physically drained from crying and couldn't cry any longer.
"Lorna wouldn't want you crying", Tiara said.
"I miss her", Nicky replied wiping away her tears.
"I miss Billie and Brad...Bradley", Tiara replied getting choked up on Bradley's name.
Nicky looked at Tiara. She's never had kids herself and never planned on having any but loosing a kid she imagined must be hard, especially if you're only eighteen like Tiara is. Nicky looked at her. She secretly admired how brave Tiara is.
"Sometimes I think of this pregnancy a sign from Bradley", Tiara said.
"But you were forced", Nicky replied.
"Miracles can still happen", Tiara replied.
"I need a miracle to bring back Lorna", Nicky replied.
Tiara looked at Nicky, it was obvious she had a plan. They walked to there bunk and both sat on Tiara's bunk. They sat next to each other.
"I've got a plan", Tiara said.
"What is it", Nicky asked.
"We break into Cupoto's office, I'll make a call pretending to be Fig. You're on look out for any guards or Cupoto. If he comes up you make some shit up about the place. Lorma is then transferred back", Tiara said.
"Jeez kid. If we get caught our sentence will be life", Nicky replied.
"But to het Lorna Morello back, its fucking worth it", Tiara replied.
Nicky thought about the scenario. She knew Tiara was right and she would do anything to get Lorna back. She looked at her.
"We should tell Red", Nicky said.
"We can't live our prison life doing what Red says. I've never had a mum before and Red is the closest I've got, however a kids got to rebel. Besides Red could try and stop it and you never know, this plan could pull off", Tiara replied.
"Red's gonna kill us if she finds out", Nicky replied.
"What she doesn't know won't hurt her", Tiara replied.
A fight broke out in the dorm, Nicky looked at Tiara. They both snuck off and went to Cupoto's office. They hid in the brrom room and waited for a guard to come and get him. He left with Donuts and then Tiara snuck into his office while Nicky was on look out.
"Kid you sure about this", Nicky asked.
"Fuck yeah", Tiara replied.
Nicky watched as Tiara picked up the phone and made herself comfortable, she smiked at Nicky who was keeping watch. Tiara dialed in the Chicago number and waited for someone to pick up the phone on the other side.
"Hello, my name is Natalie Figoura calling from Litchfield prison. I made a mistake about sending Lorna Morello. The name was meant to be Laura Moore. If we coulddo the exchange and we give you Laura and you give us back Lorna we could forget any of it happened", Tiara said.
Nicky was beginning to worry that they were going to get caught. This would mean not only would Lorna not be able to come back but they would get a longer sentence.
"We can keep Laura, that's wonderful news and Lorna should be back tomorrow morning, excellent. By the way don't say nothing. Just drop the inmate off and leave. Thank you bye", Tiara said.
Tiara then deleted all everdence she had made a phone call. They left the office to find Cupoto coming back. He looked at them.
"Ladies canI help you", Cupoto asked.
'We sorted it. We were just hiding from the fight", Nicky replied.
"Back to our bunk we go", Tiara replied.
Nicky and Tiara went back to their bunk. Nicky was desperate to kniw about the phone call. Tiara looked around and then at Nicky.
"She's back tomorrow morning but keep it zipped", Tiara said.
Nicky was so happy about this. She had missed Lorna. She looked at Tiara after remembering what she had said aboit not having a mom. It made Nicky feel bad for not really liking Marka and even calling her Marka instead of mum.
"How come you never had a mum", Nicky asked.
"She died of an overdose before I was born. She had traces of crystal meth, cocaine, herion and anti depressants in her blood. She was trying to kill me", Tiara said.
Nicky wrapped her arms around Tiara before she could say anything. She hated her mumbut her mum had never tried to kill her. Red came in and looked at her prison daughters.
"Nicky what happened", Red asked.
"Tiara opened up about her mom", Nicky replied.
"My dad died in a moterbike accident when I was two. William says ypu could hear the accident it was that close to home", Tiara said.
"Shit man", Nicky replied.
"I had a sister, her name was Yasmin, when she was fourteen, I was two, she was hit by a speeding car driven by her so called friends, she died at the scene. It was the same crash that took my dads life two. The only comfort I get from that is they died together", Tiara replied.
"Shit", Nicky said.
"What about aunts or uncles", Red asked.
"Haven't got any. Both my parents met in a childrens home", Tiara replied.
Nicky looked at Red shocked. How someone so young jas dealt with so maby huge deaths on her life shocked them. They looked at a emotional Tiara.
"I hope my mum, my dad and my sister are looking after Bradley up in the stars", Tiara said.
"I'm sure they are", Red replied.
"I know this sounds so stupid because I was too young to properly remember them but if I ever got upset I'd look at the stars and which ever one was shining the brightest I knew that was my family. Mum, dad and Yasmin looking down on me and William", Tiara replied.
Red came over and sat the other side of Tiara. She was crying over her family and her pregnancy hormones probably weren't making it any easier for her. Red and Nicky both hugged Tiara together trying to comfort her.
