I kept walking, my heart thumping in my chest. I'd been expecting this since I started. I'd been expecting the DHS to figure out what I was doing. I took every precaution, but Severe-Haircut woman had told me that she'd be watching me. She'd told me I was a marked man. I realized that I'd been waiting to get picked up and taken back to jail. Why not? Why should Darryl be in jail and not me? What did I have going for me? I hadn't even had the guts to tell my parents—or his—what had really happened to us.

The mood of the excerpt, is that of nervousness. You can feel the character's nervousness through his heart thumping in his chest and expressed that he knew he'd be caught. Nervousness is also felt as he ponders what to tell his family about why he'd be going to jail or how to explain what happened to him and the other character.
