From inside room 148 there is the faint sound of a baby crying. Otherwise, it is a very nondescript looking door, no name of its occupant on the outside.
"The person I slapped was temporarily dangerous. I lost my temper with her. I was scared that if I confessed before she got better that you would put me in the cells without Jack and she might get him while I wasn't able to protect him."
"I would not seperate a mother and child," he assures her gently. "Especially not a child that young. If there must be cell time involved, he will be allowed to stay with you. I do not believe you would do anything knowingly malicious, Shufti. Tell me what happened, and why you believe your child to be in danger."
"I don't think he is in danger now. But a couple of weeks ago... a friend began to act oddly. She's a vampire and she told a mutual friend that me and Jack were just prey to her. He told me and... and I left Jack with him and went to see her because I was worried. She was acting really odd. When I challenged her she threatened me that if I said she was threatening me and Jack that she would carry out her threats, and I got very confused and she said that she hadn't threatened me when she'd just done it. So I asked her why she'd said we were prey and she said that it was because that was all we were. And... and I just lost my temper and slapped her. She... she didn't like that."
She rubs just below her collarbone.
"But now she's been made better again and she's really sorry. It wasn't her fault, and she didn't do anything to us in the end."
