Flowers with a note that read “Lets talk 305-555-0513.” Nina was so confused. Her mind scrambled trying to figure out who was this person that wanted to talk. “This whole week has been crazy, what the hell is really going on?” She said to her self. Kendrah walked in snatching the note from Nina. “ Giiiirl ok tell me your secret, cuz for real you are on role here. Yo ass don’t go no where and don’t do nothing but yet you have an admirer from the club that keeps finding you, a supervisor that tried to take the P****, not to mention a wet dream about the infamous NICO, now this. Tell me please, you got some special powers or something?” “Girl no!” Nina laughed. “I mean what can I say Miami’s most wanted” They both laughed.” So are you going to call the number?” Ima call” “When?!” “Damn later! Can we get to work before Lisa get to trippin on the both of us.” “Please.” Sucking her teeth and grabbing the office phone. “Get the dialing. This has been the most excitement you have ever gotten so lets see where this takes us.” “US?!” “ Yes bitch cuz when it’s all said and done your going to tell me everything or some how some way I will be involved, stop trippin and call this number.” Shaking her head knowing Kendrah was telling the truth she dialed. The line rang “Hello” a deep voice on the other end. Kendrah hit the speaker button. Nina slapping her hand “whatchu doin?” whispering’ I’m listening, I wanna hear instead of listening to you tell it. Plus you like to leave out certain details come on stop playin talk” Kendrah said with a smile. “ Uhh hello?” “Hey Nina how are you doing?” “Who is this?” “Guess” “Come on man I’m at work. Who is this?” “Just take a guess” “ Ummmmm Johnny” blurting out any name that first hit her mind. “Try again” “Tommy” Kendrah: “What the hell names are you thinking about?!”  “WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING?” Kendrah hung up the phone and Nina turned around lost for words. Kendrah: “Oh Mrs. Dawson we were just about to call the main office to see how much time had for the talent show and to see what acts were being put on by the other schools so that we wouldn’t do the same thing as them.” “Well ok yall get out of here I will call and find out for you guys.” Nina and Kendrah quickly rushed out the office forgetting to get the flowers off of Mrs. Dawson’s desk. “Ladies whose flowers?” “There yours the staff wanted to show their appreciation” kendrah smiling an n awkward smile. “Oh well thank you guys. That is real sweet of you guys Ill make sure to put them in some water.” They rushed off and Nina looked and Kendrah with one of her crazy faces. “What? you don’t know who dude is anyway plus I’m not losing my job over mystery man and some cheap as flowers.” “How the hell you can think of a lie so quick like that. It’s like it just flowed off your tongue no thought process at all and your consistent with it.” “It took a lot of training, plus when I’m nervous I get these special powers.” They both laughed and headed to the black top with the kids to get a game of kick ball going.

Later that night her cell phone rings. Nina made it home. She didn’t have to work Subway so she was able to just relax with her daughter and watch TV or the back of her eyelids which ever came first. She and Harmony took a bath together it saved time and gave them time together to be silly in the tub. Warmed up dinner and plopped on the bed cut on Harmony’s show (That 70’s show). She loved to sing the theme song. Couldn’t say the words correctly but when her part came on she sang it so clear every time (HELLO WISCONNSON!) Nina’s cell phone rang. It showed as unknown. By this time Nina was exhausted of this event filled week concerning all these men just popping up out the blue, but secretly she liked it. She answered the phone “Hello” “Hey Nina! It’s ……………;p

It was the boss’s son. He was a true definition of a B!!!! made dude. He had this arrogant rude way about him. He felt that because his father owned a Subway that they were so rich. Nina knew that they were just stealing money from the company and then go blow at Tootsies. Robert liked Nina but couldn’t stand his ass. Robert was a rash that never went away almost like herpes. Robert: “So what’s going on here? Kendrah nice to see you, but what are you doing here after hours? I know my DAD wouldn’t approve of th...”Saying with a sinister look on his face. Cutting him off Kendrah: Boy please its only 10:59, which means I still have a minute to order my food and whatchu doin here? Aint you suppose to be cross the street payin women that can’t stand yo desperate ass?””Kendrah I don’t have time to lesson my mental and speak hood rat, them girls love me over there.”” Fool cuz you payin Diamond already told me you they call you Cobble pot off of Batman cuz you look like something created from the sewer. You know what that is right, the place SHIT is dropped off. Girl let me get out of here before I have to showem what a hood rat is for real. Ill see you later. Just bring my food tomorrow.” Kendrah walked by him and took a sniff from his shoulder” Smells like you just came from home.” Walking out the door she knew she wasn’t going too far she couldn’t leave Nina hangin like that. She took a drive over to her cousins’ house. Besides her cousin had called her earlier to put 1 in the air after that run in it was needed. Her folks were Rastafarian; it’s what she grew up around. Not saying she didn’t know God but her logic for it was that it made her more closer to God. She never couldn’t really explain her reasoning that’s all she could come up with. Hell the kind of stress she was going through on a day to day bases it helped ease her nerves. She figured the side effects were way better than the hard stuff. She knew you can’t come back from crack very very few do, and her problems weren’t that deep to just go and slowly kill her self.

Robert:” You know if I tell my dad about this you can lose your job.” Nina:” Robert at this point I don’t give a damn about you or your drunken ass daddy, both of you have worked my last nerve and before I let you or him run me into the ground I will leave.”Robert: Oooooh, someone had a bad day today. You wanna tell me about it baby?” You’re sick you know that? I DON’T LIKE YOU ROBERT! How many times does that have to be explained?” Nina knew that Robert was just real meaning of a low self esteem ef boy. He doesn’t have a back bone at all. His daddy gave him the supervisor position and he hid behind that title even though he wore others. Staff never respects him some tell him to shut up to his face and he just runs and tell daddy. Walking closer to Nina he grabbed her and tried to take a kiss from her.” STOP ROBERT STOP! Beating him upside his head. The door flew open and Kendrah grabbed the broom from by the door and started hitting him.” GET OFF OF HER! I CANT STAND YO UGLY ASS! GET THE FU** OFF HER!!!! “KENDRAH STOP HE’S OFF K HE’S OFF!!! Robert lying on the ground still not moving a muscle. Nina: “Is he dead?” Kendrah put her finger under his nose to see if she could feel him breathing.” Naw his stupid ass is still alive” “ I thought you left!?” “ I did but, my cousin wanted a sub before he smoked so I made a u-turn. I wasn’t studden Robert and his mess he is a punk to me. I knew if had something to say for me coming back I had more to give his ass aint nobody scared of Robert.” “ Well what do we do with him?” Ima cancel my session, we going to lock him in the bathroom, finish cleaning and counting, when we done unlock the bathroom and leave his ass here. He smells like alcohol anyway so he’ll make up his own reasoning.” Nina wasn’t sure about it but the only person she ever trusted was her. Every time there was a situation Kendrah was always there almost like her ghetto angel. She felt God knew she would need someone like her in her life considering all the things she had been going through since Harmony was born. She and Kendrah had met in the hospital giving birth on the same day. They had to share recovery rooms crazy enough she named her baby Destiny. Ever since 9/9/01 they have been friends. Kendrah had got her in at the Y and that when they got real close. Nina: I thought you were going to kill him girl!”” I was you stopped me. I don’t play that mess. He already pays for the pu**y how does he feel like he can just take it like that? He aint Tyrese or Pac!” Nina started laughing” Girl you stupid” “ I mean for real if Ty or Pac walked in right now and said give me dat Pu**y you wouldn’t?” “ Girl NO!” with a smile on her face” Who you foolin, girl I would flip the switch to closed and drop my panties so fast they would have my full consent. I know your type you undercover freak think I don’t know.” Smiling with her tongue hanging out making one of her ugly sounds laughing.” I am not an undercover freak; I just don’t discuss my sexual business with others it’s only for me and him to know.” Batting her eyes and her lips pursed up at Kendrah. Rolling her eyes.” Girl whateva, speaking of Him.What was cutie from the bar doing here?” “TROY just stopped by to get a sub…..and a date.” “Awe he putting his big boy swag on for you” Teasing Nina.” Call it what you want, I never said I didn’t like him I just can’t make the same mistake twice. I noticed I wouldn’t make a dude work for it. I have been on more dates and had gotten more gifts in middle and high school than I have in my adult years. Men just don’t care to put in the work plus living in Miami it’s even harder. Think about why would they its hoe on every corner. Chicks put on make up just to go to Winn Dixie. Competition is serious out here. THEN you got Lil Wayne pumping swagg and the Im better than you syndrome. Confidence is good but damn can a traditional, hard working, no asking for a hand out, woman get a date. At least a date. The first thing a fool comes out his mouth is “ let me slide” Come on man Im not worth a dinner and a movie? Check this out I would actually prefer a picnic at a nice park and just talk and really to get to know each other, or skating, or go and pick strawberries something damn. I mean dudes just don’t put any thought to dating anymore only because there are too many chicks making it too easy!” Kendrah: “ Well damn tell me how you really feel. It’s ok breath mama.” Laughing at Nina and her mild melt down. “So are you going to give him a chance at least or keep that wall up?” “What wall?” “Girl please you have a brick wall, a moat with gators  , a barbed wire gate 10ft tall and laser beams around your heart. You don’t even allow a guy to finish his statement sometimes.” “Well when you see the BS why entertain it, after Nico AND Mindbenda I am so good right now. Besides I’m not together financially and the last thing I want is a man thinking he own me because he helping me. That’s what Nico did.” “ You can’t punish the next guy for Nico ef up. Since we talking bout Nico have you heard from him?” “The last text I got from Nico was I can’t even remember. He said and I quote” Maybe one day we talk without arguing, come to an agreement, and understand each other. Still love you for life.” Nina: “Which is code for when you can except that I will date every now and again but your main then we can work it out. The dick wasn’t that great. I don’t understand why men think that because we give them attention and make them feel like king that they are the shit. They don’t get that they have flaws too. I mean I like my men tall with some chest, nice teeth, intelligent, able to wear street clothes and put on a suit, cultured and not by National Geo channel either. Nico had 2 out just the 5 I mentioned he didn’t even give 2.5. He wasn’t the ultimate man of my dreams but I loved him and accepted his good and bad. That just wasn’t good enough for him. He said that I was too skinny and didn’t look like the girls on the beach. Mindbenda said I wasn’t hood enough for him now that threw me for a serious loop. I never told Benda that his sex game was weak or that he looked like bum when he dressed. I worked with him.” “Yea, but girl you know how men are or just people say anything to bring you down because of their own insecurities it’s just a sad that it’s always the one closest to you that do it.” Kendrah and Nina finished up. They heard movement in the bathroom so they unlocked the bathroom door quickly grabbed their food and went out the back. Next morning Kendrah picked Nina up for work just to make sure she was doing ok. Even though she joked about what happened she also knew that Nina was hurt but will never show it. She was just tough and hardened over the years that she became emotionless. They pulled up to the job and went in to clock in. Stacy on of the other counselors walked up to Nina and told her she had something in the office for her. When she walked in she saw…….. ;)

1. "You gotta come better than that." she said with a smile tapped the car and walked away. "Damn you hard!, but ok I gotchu." He yelled out his window " You aint seen nothin yet, I know you hear me." She smiled, but she never turned around for him to see. She kept walking to her stop.
   The bus pulled up and all she could think about was sitting down and hoping she could get a seat to her self. Its p...

ublic transportation ,but you never know who is going to sit next to you. Considering the day she was having and it wasnt near over she just wanted a bus ride to her self. She saw a spot by the back exit and took a seat popped in her earphones listening to smooth Jill Scott looking out the window. She just wanted her mind to go blank. Looking out the window she sees Mindbenda sitting at the carwash Not washing cars smoking with the hood rejects or what we call residue. Meaning the ones that never left doing the same thing they were doing in high school. Nina just dropped her head. never once did she ask for money or put him on child support. She didnt believe in forcing a man to take care of his own seed. She knew that was something he would have to deal with later. Nina was saving to get a car then she could go back to school. Tears ran down her face it was just so much pressure . her own family wouldnt even help her out. 5 cars in the yard nobody would pick her from work even from her 2nd job when she closed by her slef and get off at midnight. Buses dont even run her direction, she would walk from 441 to 22ave passing Rolling oaks park. The crazy part fam would call her at the job requesting personlized subs, but wouldnt get up to pick her up from WORK.
She didnt complain she took whatever came at her and continued to push on.
She finally made it to work. She went to the bathroom to change her uniform and get started. "Hey Mr. Walker , whats new for today?" Walker: Well everything is the same , but I need you stay till 2am, you know inspection is coming up and we just got a new truck load of cookies today so they need to be counted and I need the ovens scrubbed down." Nina: Where is Robert ?I thought he would have at least some of it done. Thats too late for me to walk home Mr. Walker." " Well I cant change that. Do it or I can replace you.Your choice." Nina: "Ok , Mr.Walker I got it." Walker was an old drunk who stayed in the strip club across the street (Tootsies). When everyone had left she called Kendrah" Girl I need you tonight, Walker on one of his trips again." Kendrah:" Im on my way, then you can tell me about your dream." Nina: " Thats fine I just need some help tonight, besides it will make time go faster." Whenever Mr.Walker would act crazy Nina would call Kendrah to do the cleaning and she would handle the stocking and counting. Nina would just break off $50 and $50 in foodstamps. While waiting for Kendrah to come she started working in the back. She heard someone come in, it was 15min till closing. She never understood why people always came last minute. Frustrated, she walked out to the front dusting off her pants,looked up and saw Cutie from the bar. Startled but not willing to let him see that." what do you want?"" I just want a sub, is that ok?I mean I cant get your name,or none of your time Ill settle for a sandwich." With a smile on his face."Fine what kind of sub you want?"" Wow, you have great customer service skills" he said in a sarcastic tone. " How may I help you sir?" " let me get a tuna melt everything but onions wheat bread." She started to prepare his order,thinkng where the hell is Kendrah. He just stared at her"Whats your name beautiful?" She answered"Nina"" OOOH so Im making progress you didnt even put up a fight this time." leaning down to see her eyes through the glass. She smiled and gigled a little."OOOOH and she smiled, I gotta foot in the door people!"" No, a toe." She wrapped up his sub went to the register to ring him up. He pays and grabs the sub, in mid grab he asks her"let me take you out to dinner or wherever you want to go"" Now you have a foot in ...Mr.""Troy.Saturday 7 sharp, here is my # you are more than welcome to call me before then at anytime you want." she smiled, he made his way to the door turned and said "you should do that more often." "What?""Smile." She blushed and responded"Was that so hard?""Whats that?""Be a gentleman." He chuckled."Your worth it." He walked out running into Kendrah. Kendrah eyes got big"GIIIIIRL! You getting booty calls on the job now?" Nina: Why does your mind go straight to the gutter." Before they could finish the door opens hearts drop and eyes get big..........

"NIKO! What are you doing here!? ,How did you find me!?"
Niko was this fine dark chocolate, 6 ft, man. He had a nose of a king ,eyes that could see straight to your soul, chest,arms of a personal trainer, jet black hair w/ deep waves low boy cut, a smile that just makes you melt, politically hood like Pac,sexy like Morris Chestnut, swag like Denzel and sex game. Lets just say he gave you that R.Kelly, Trey Songz blow your mind kind of grind.
She sat up and just stared at him. She didnt know if she should slap him or continue what he started inside her.
Niko just gazed into her eyes and said" I had to find you,what you thought I was going to let you go that easy? Na ma your mine I dont care what you say you cant fight what I have for you nor will you be able to stop it. So just come here to daddy" as he licked his lips and walked towards her wrapping his arms around her slim waist pulling her closer to his chest. She tried so hard to resist but his kisses made her so weak. She went from pushing him against his chest to just letting her body go and melting away into his body.
He gently kissed and guided his tounge down the nape of her neck as he gripped her waist gliding his hands slowly down her thighs and stopped at he cup of her butt and lifted her up in the air. Landing on his pelvis and her legs wrapped so tight around him.He slowly started to lean forward to lay her down on the pile of costumes behind her. As he gently placed her down he just looked at her and said "never again baby I promise". He held her face in his hands and kissed her so passionately on the lips pulling her body close and her back arched gripping the back of his neck. He reached down and slipped his hands....."NINA! NINA! NINA GIRL WAKE UP! Lisa comin, and what the hell was you dreamin about?" Nina had jumped up grabbing at her chest feeling all over body. Her neck face and looking around the stage. She just dropped and shook her head. Nina: How far is she? What did she say? Come on girl give me the run down so I can have my story straight, you wanna eat tomorrow right?" Kendrah: She's in the office dont worry I just told her you weren't feeling well. I said you were in the bathroom. "Damn! Kendrah you got people thinkin I had a bad case of the runs!?" Kendrah: "hehehehe that or your ass would be so out of a job right now, and dont think you slippin away without telling me about this dream you had .You sure you dont need to go and check yourself in the bathroom? I mean the sounds that were comin out your mouth Im surprised there aint no puddle over there."Nina: Touch ya nose, lunch is not enough for you huh?You gotta know what Im dreamin bout too, what's next you gona give me a pap?"Kendrah: Stop being so dramatic, and whoeva you was dreamin bout already gave you your annual check up I just wanna know who he is chick." with a smirk on her face. Nina:"It was Nico." "you mean dude you was with before you got with this fool we have to call yo baby daddy!?" Nina: "Dont talk about Mindbenda like that, he still Harmony daddy." Kendrah: "So , there are plenty of crackhead parents in this world, whatchu sayin? They both laughed and then Lisa walked in "What are yall doin?" Kendrah:" Oh hey Mrs.Dawson, we was just getting the costumes so the kids can put on a play, you know we have that talent show comin soon we thought we would get a headstart." Mrs. Dawson raised her eyebrow"mmmhmm, good save hurry up." They grabbed the costumes and headed out.Kendrah: "No girl put that one back you just had a wet dream on that one, thats just nasty." laughing at Nina. Nina: shut-up K, you always got something smart to say." laughing along with her.
It was 6pm and Nina was on her way to the bus stop. She heard a car pulling up along side of her." Can I still buy you that drink?" She turned around and saw it was the cutie from the bar last night. "What the hell is going on today?!" She said under her breath."Im fine thank you though." "Okay, well let me give you a ride, where ever you have to go."" I dont just jump in the car with some random guy, whatch think this is?"" Whoa whoa, look I dont mean any harm I just wanna get to know you I dont care if I just get five minutes of your time, look I'll even let you drive if that will make you feel safe. I just like your style and how you carry yourself. I see you at the spot when you do come out.Sexy,quiet,dresses fit so right, just an effortless beauty about you. I just wanna know more ma." she turned around walked towrds his car leaned in his window and said......

1. It was September of "04" and Nina was working as an aftercare counselor at the Y. She was on the blacktop with the kids , it was free time so they were just playing running everywhere. Kendrah another counselor came with her group to join her. They sat around waiting for 6pm to clock out. Nina was 5 ft 2 slim pretty brown eyes curly hair with a mocha skin tone. Very simple or should I say traditio...

nal. she had so much on her mind and so much going on, no time to think just do. Her weeks were hectic. Mon- Sat 6am drop baby girl off to daycare(by bus mind you) make it to class that started at 8am.Get out of class go to her first job at the Y then go to her 2nd job at Subway to close by herself.get off at 12am. She had to walk home with a huge duffle bag on her shoulder that held her school books, and work uniforms. Buses stopped running and the fam well a story within itself. Baby daddy busy in the street getting high. He thought working at the carwash was a job. Her knowing it was only to support his own habbit and not his child.Sunday was church. Sleep what was that? Datng for what? There wasnt anytime for that and plus when she did date the guys were bout nothing even the ones with money. Now Kendrah smh. She was around Nina size a little thicker in the hips ,pretty eyes , hair weave on point,4 to the bottom but a pretty smile, very boisterous(loud) always had an opinion and saying what she would do and how she gonna quit,but never did a thing. Nina liked her though because kendrah always spoke her mind. They hung out whenever nina could find a minute to do so.They would go to this spot called Lipstik. It was within budget $5 at he door. So you already know this wasnt Club Play or anything on the beach.
This one night she had met this cute guy at the bar while getting her drink. He offerd to pay but Nina just looked ,paid and walked away. Kendrah:" Girl whats wrong with you, you know you needed that extra 5 in your pocket for tomorrow!" Nina: " stop actin so thirsty for it, besides if I would have excepted that drink he would feel like he owned me for the night. Im tired, I want to drink listen to my music and go home". Kendrah: well whateva Im just sayin shoot. You coulda got the damn drink for me!" They looked at eachother started laughing making their way to he dance floor. Now it had nothing to do with money for Nina. It had all to do with approach and intentions and persistence. A man knows what he wants and will do everyhting in his power to get it. She wanted something special and it wasnt in a place like that.
The next day Nina looked like a hot mess. Kendrah:" Damn girl you look ugly!" Nina: " Thanks girl I can depend on you to raise my spirits". in a sarcastic tone and stuck her tounge out. Nina: "I dont know what I was thinkin going out last night, can you please cover for me? Let me know when the super is coming, I just need an hour "Kendrah: "Fine but I want lunch tomorrow". with her lips all pursed out like she knew she was runnin the show. Rolling her eyes Nina says" Damn K! yo beggin ass, ok lunch I gotchu." Kendrah: Beggin!? You the one lookn for sleep on the Job.Bet you wish you had them extra $5 now huh?" As she laughed.Nina:K! Not now I gotchu tomorrow love you." Kendrah: yea I know see you in an hour" She walked out and Nina fell asleep on the cafeteria stage behind the curtains. Wrapped up in one of the school play costumes. She drifted off into a deep sleep. She heard footsteps and felt a gentle touch on her cheek. Then she felt soft but a nice touch of passion grace her lips. Her body was saying Damn! but her mind was saying ,wait who the hell is this!? She pushed away and couldnt believe her eyes it was .........

Now that you guys have an idea of how the prison world is. All the drama is the juicy stuff. Hope you enjoy. Welcome to South Florida Detention Center (SFDC) ;)

Ofc. Kneed had just started at SFDC a week ago. Coming from another camp she had decided to transfer because of all the mess she had gotten herself into. Working first shift 12am-8am. Kneed had 4 kids all under the age of 5.She lived in the city with her long time no good boyfriend that worked for the county. He made good money but cheated like no tomorrow. Sometimes he put his hands on her or would start a fight just to get out the house. Kneed was getting ready for work when her boyfriend,  Shawn walked through the door with straight attitude on his face. “ Whatchu doin?” “ Im getting ready for work , you know I go in tonight.” “ Who gonna  watch the kids?” “ Bae why you acting like this? You know I gotta leave in less than 30 min and I don’t have a babysitter. Didn’t you say you were going to watch them this week. Besides you were suppose to hire a babysitter for us anyway.” “I never said that, Im going out tonight so I suggest you start calling some of your home girls and make something happen.” Kneed looked at him with tears in her eyes. Trying to figure out what did she ever do to him to deserve the mess he dished out to her. She got on the phone and called her sister in law sort of speak. Her sister in law also worked with her at the same facility. Ofc. Dunkin. She didn’t like Kneed one bit,but because it was family in some strange way she looked out every now and then. Finally Kneed made it to work pulling behind Dunkin. “ Look don’t get too comfortable with this whole babysitting thing. These are your kids figure this shit out” Kneed knew she was serious but laughed it off. Walking in through the metal detector before getting searched Dunkin decided to make another comment in front of staff in the lobby. Just to be nasty. “ Who your kids going to be with tomorrow?” “ Kneed didn’t answer she just continued to grab her things so she could get posted. Dunkin smirked knowing that because she made that comment in of the girls that work in the control room that will be the topic of the night. Meaning it will be circulated through out the whole compound from dorm to dorm. The Control room was the head station where all information for the compound went through them first. Phone calls coming in and going out. They didn’t miss a beat. Always put heir own twist to things to keep the drama going. Sometimes they would call officers homes and tell their spouces that their husband or wife was cheating with another officer on the pound. Only to see a fight in the parking lot in the morning. Control room was always filled with fat, ugly, pregnant, miserable girls. Girls is the term to be used no one especially the females were women.

Kneed was posted to be on the yard security 9 Alpha she was paired with ofc. Jenkins. Ofc. Jenkins was this petite brown skinned young lady. Mostly quiet but spoke her mind if needed. Most of the girls on the pound couldn’t stand her. Mostly based on jealousy. Jenkins worked ,but the girls knew that the men on the pound had a soft spot for her. If Jenkins didn’t want to do something majority of the time she would ask her sergeant to do it or another male officer to accompany her in doing her job. Jenkins wasn’t stupid from a long shot she knew what time it was. She knew the men out there a vast majority of them were thirsty. She knew she would have to rotate them as well. Some men caught on others just didn’t care. They thought it would get them in the door to lets be honest FUCK. Jenkins knew this, but she didn’t want to work so hard and that pissed control room girls off to the fullest. Jenkins was security 9 Bravo and had to train Kneed on the yard. Jenkins wasn’t the team type. She was more, this is what you do this is what I do when we are done you go your way and I go my way. That night Kneed wasn’t having it. She stuck by Jenkins side like glue. Meanwhile Dunkin was assigned to Kilo dorm with ofc. Kelly and Sgt. Moore. Dunkin sparked up a conversation after count was cleared and the inmates were locked down for the night. Dunkin laid back in her chair “ So what yall think about Kneed?” Kelly, fat ,red bone dingy as ever. Says everything on her mind no filter. In her pitchy voice “I mean she ok to me, but I did hear from my sources she begs a lot. She don’t even have to know you but she would ask you for money and shit. So far since she been here she asked Rodgers to get her tire fixed on her car, aaand be askin 2^nd shift guys for breakfast and gas money.” Sgt. Moore tall, dark skinned slick Rick gold in the front, low boy hair cut, uniform wrinkled leaning back in his chair with his feet propped on the desk with his shades on “ I think she cute, I mean the girl do have a big apple head but I would hit” “ SHUT UP MOORE!!” Kelly and Dunkin said in unison. Dunkin: “ Well I know all about her, she don’t take care of her kids. My friend was going to whoop her ass at a family get together we had, but she was scared.” Kelly: “ Damn, yall that close?” “ That’s my husbands brother girlfriend. So yeah you can say that. He doesn’t even come home. He talks about that girl so bad. Hell I can’t stand her. She always begin and shit. He doesn’t give her anything… I keep telling her she should leave but her stupid ass stays.” Moore: “Shit like that? “ “Just like that.” Jenkins and Kneed started their security checks. They decided to knock out the fence since that takes the longest. They had to walk in between the barb wire, electrical fence to set off the the motion detectors witch let the control room know if the detectors worked or not. The fence was like confession for the officers. Only because no one could here you and only you and the person you walked with knew what was being talked about. To be safe they would cut off their radios just incase the button was pushed in mid convo and then the whole compound would hear the secrets being told. Jenkins already knew Kneed had a lot on her mind. Being the most hated women on the compound from all shifts she knew the stress Kneed was going through, but Jenkins didn’t want to know nothing she didn’t want to talk. She just had a gut feeling that if she befriended this chic that somehow some way the tables were going to flip and she would be the one to get burned. Jenkins quickly started walking and turned on the music from her cell phone. It wasn’t allowed but Jenkins mostly walked the fence alone so there wasn’t anybody to snitch at this point considering the mess Kneed was going through she wasn’t worried about kneed running her mouth. Kneed tried to keep up thinking of a way to break the ice Jenkins. “ So you do this every night?” “ Yup” “ You like it?” “ yup” “ How come you don’t want to work in the dorms?” “ Look I understand you want to make small talk but honestly I don’t want to. I have enough of my own drama going on out here and at home.  I usually do this walk alone, it’s the only place on this damn compound that I don’t have to worry about getting harassed for an hour sometimes I push it for an hour and a half. Im so sure you have heard so much about me. So lets just walk and vibe to the music. You should soak up this quiet time because when you get back on the pound you know you going to face some drama for the night right?” Kneed looked at Jenkins with tears in her eyes “ OOOH NO YOU DON’T! Don’t you do it, please girl I cant not now. Why where do yall come from? Ok , Ok you want to talk lets talk but you need to pull it together you can’t let them see you break Bitch this is prison same rules apply to us just as the inmates. I’ve cried don’t get it twisted shit get crazy out here but privately ok. Ok what’s, up what’s going on? “ My man at home keep cheating on me and leaving me to things on my own, his family constantly disrespects me even Dunkin. “ DUNKIN!?” “That’s his sister in law. His brother wife. “Well shit you got it bad, that girl can’t stand you. To be honest that’s how your home life business keeps getting out” “I know, but what am I going to do about it?” “Hell I don’t know pray, that’s all you can do. Its what I do every night when I come out here.”  Radio goes off “ Control room to Ofc. Kneed. Whats your 20?” Jenkins dropped her head. “ First of all why is your radio on. Secondly you know they fuckin with you right. They know we walking the fence the detectors go off in the control room. Always cut off your radio when on the fence. It is against rules and regulations but if you want to have that quiet hour I was talking about you will cut it off. Now look.” “ CONTROL ROOM TO OFC. KNEED WHAT IS YOUR 20 MA’AM?” “ I’m walking inner perimeter with ofc. Jenkins. “  GIRL NO! Remember I said I’m inner your outer” “ WHY ARE YOU BOTH WALKING INNER?” “ I meant to say I’m outer and Ofc. Jenkins is inner” Jenkins: “ Now you know they coming out to see, RUN,” Wait why we running?” “ BITCH I GOTTA GET YOU TO CENTER GATE AND GET ROVER TO LET YOU OUT BEFORE THEY COME . RUN BITCH” Laughing and running at the same time,  ofc. Jenkins  signaled for Rover 1 with her flashlight to come to center gate. Sgt. Mullinks from control room made her way out the compound and to the parking lot to get a van so she could drive up on Kneed and Jenkins. Rover 1 pulled and Sgt. Mullinks was coming round the bend…Jenkins “Shit, Shit, Shit! Go hide in the search dug out. “ Im not going down there!” “ Bitch if you don’t get down there we both fucked and you think you have problems” Rover 1 jumped back in his vehicle and pulled off before Mullinks could pull up. Kneed moving slow motion towards the dug out……. ;)
