What would I say other than thank you?, remembering that I almost ended my life six months ago felt so pathetic in my thoughts, I couldn't believe that me, Jerome has made that thought, had decided to end my life because of life struggles, embarrassing.
If it wasn't for Karl's intervention, where would I be now?. All my thanks goes to him because he was the reason why I am still alive, he saved me from myself, and I believe that I owe him one for that, he just can't imagine how grateful I am.
They all were here when I came, and the three of them are still here now that I'm leaving. Karl had told me that he would be getting his own freedom three months from now, I am hoping to see him outside there after his release from here. 
Ever since that incident, both of us has gotten more closer to each other than the others, we get along together, he took care of me, more like took over me, he treated me like his younger brother, taught me things I never knew, showed me what a Fucking cunt I have been all my life, throwing it to my face.
He changed my mindset entirely, the way I think, the way I take care of stuff, my actions, taught me skills, skills that made me a known figure in the prison, made me into a weapon, a man who fights for needs. 
When I lost the opportunity to kill myself that day, I know that summoning the courage for a next try was going to be hard, I was living for nothing, I've nothing to fight for, I had no plans, life was stabbing me in the heart every single day, throwing it to my face that I wouldn't do anything about it.
Speaking of a guardian angel, Karl is my guardian angel, he was the one who helped stick my head out of my ass, and then showed me that there's always something to fight for. After having told him and the guys about my life story, Karl didn't see the painful and agony part of it, he wasn't looking at the heartbreak just the way I was, rather he made me realize that only that gives me enough reasons to make myself a better person, to forge myself and acquire resilience.
He made a huge point that I would never forget in my life, telling me to never give up or else I would be the one ending my family name, my parents are dead and I am there only son, if I die without any offsprings since the ones I thought was mine, happened to be other's kids, my ancestors wouldn't be proud of me for putting an end to the bloodline, I would be taking up a curse with me as I leave this world, he made me realize that instead of saying that I lost my wife and children, rather I would see it as God not wanting that filthy woman to be called the Mother of my kids, he taught me how unique I was and shouldn't try to live as an average man.
I'll Miss him, I'll Miss all of them, Drew still have some years to spend here, telling me exactly what brought him in here, Mark still got a year up his sleeves, and Karl would be getting freedom in three months from now.
Karl was a professional boxer, he trained me for six months, not just mentally, but physically. I was a 65kg guy when I came here, now leaving as a 77kg muscular and jacked guy, no one believes that I can possibly put on such muscle in just six months, but, you know.... This is prison, all we do is wake up, eat, workout and sleep, as well as adding some daily chores according to our assigned labor for the day.
I wonder how out there is going to be, how my books have been selling, I believe that my assets would be unlocked, as well as my driving license issued back to me, I am going to get my Life back out there, but this time, going to start as a bachelor rather than a once married and divorced pussy who died in that prison with all his problems, the current me is a new Man who sees life in a new light.
“ Jerome!..... it's time!.”
The prison guard called for me, opening the prison bar, as much as I was excited to leave, excited to go back into that world and see what has changed, I also felt bad leaving, leaving my friends who has turned to family lately, going to remember all the days we spent together, the prison fights, the arguments, stories, there are many things to remember, but for now, I believe it's about time I say my goodbyes.
Walking with the prison guard, the other prisoners were yelling, hailing me for my freedom, few enemies cursing. It's just how it was supposed to be, I made few friends and as well broke few teeths in here, so I wasn't expecting a gallant farewell.
On getting inside the office where I am to collect the stuff I came with, I collected them when it was handed over to me as I headed into the changing room, when I saw that I was now alone, I let go of the tears in my eyes, I sat on the floor, kept my outfit by my side as I let go of all the tears stored in, who believed that I was going to live to see this day?, So I finally made it to my six months, I finally served my time, I finally become a free man.
This were tears of joy, I can't seem to hold it in that I am about to step outside there again. Jerome you've made it, you have completed the punishment, you've passed your training, now it's about time you give the result of what you've learnt.
