The life of a slave

[Reid]

A few months of past, and they have taken a toll on Amelia. Even though she was 9 months pregnant, the guards work her as hard as anybody else. Amelia ever stopped mourning her husband's death. Se never made any friends because of this.

Amelia was hard at work, swinging a pickaxe in a line of other slaves. The guards would walk past every so often, barking orders to work harder or to stop slacking. Every so often, Amelia would double over in pain, receiving an order to get back to work each time. Eventually, Amelia collapsed to the floor, and was taken back to the slave housing. Hours later, Carolina Starr was born.
