Mary King

A Wake-up Call Mary King

The police is right in front of Emelisa's hiding. The certainty of her arrest brings her some relief. Emelisa knows the punishment for her crime. But she is wondering why she feels so relieved and why the neighbors who look on open-mouthed aren't making her to have public shame.

Even with chains later in her solitary cell, Emelisa still feels free as she has never been in life. But her most difficult problem so far is the police who wants to use emotional torture to get dramatic results. And she knows why: she has flung in their faces her courage and the pride of her being a woman. She however doesn't know if she can withstand their torture.
