125An unlucky opossum who ended up in big trouble due to a failed burglary. Now, a one-sided love that he cannot escape even in prison haunts him like a nightmare. If he does not go ahead and marry the woman, he could not bear to think about the consequences. Now, with less than 100 days until his release, will he be able to resolve the crisis?
"Hey, do you think my bad luck could be punishment for something terrible I did in a past life?" Eddie joked.
If you were to choose the top five most unlucky inmates in this prison, Eddie the Opossum would have to be on the list. According to him, he has been plagued by bad luck since childhood. When he was five years old, his house was struck by lightning and the resulting fire destroyed all the family's belongings. When he was 10 years old, his father, a taxi driver, drove his car into a ditch because of tiredness. Not only did he lose his life, but the family also incurred a huge debt to compensate the seriously injured passenger. When he was 16 years old, there was a shooting at his school, and he was shot in the buttocks.
Eddie failed to finish high school because of his poor grades. Shortly after, he chose to move out so that he would not bring his mother and sister any more trouble. He took a part time job at a drive-through, but the conflict with his mean supervisor drove him to steal money from the cash register in a fit of rage. Eddie was sent to a detention center, where he got to know many highly experienced criminals. He learned a lot from them, and on his release, started his career as a thief.
But even as a thief, Eddie's bad luck continued to follow him. He made dozens of attempts over the years, but his successes could be counted on one hand. In most cases, the police would question him while he was still casing a joint. When he did manage to break into a property, the owner would usually come back while he was halfway through the job. To say that he was not cut out to be a thief would be an understatement. However, his last job was an unmitigated disaster. He never could have imagined that he would end up stealing a fiancée, let alone one that he could not get rid of.
Determined to avoid the woman at all costs, Eddie decided to make a drastic last stand against fate. His solution: escape from prison!
Although you sympathize with his plight, his plan—if it can even be called as such—is doomed to fail. You persuaded him not to be foolish and promised to help him think of a solution. But you know in your heart of hearts that with luck as bad as his, even the best laid plans often go awry.
