I couldnt get any sleep last night, garza snores like a fucking bear and people in a different cell was arguing all night. Around five am people starting leaving the cells and going down to where they could watch tv and stuff. I decided to stay and try and get some sleep but five minutes later a guard came in and started yelling about food. I sighed standing up and going downstairs to where everyone else was at starting to sit at tables. I knew jail food was bad but I grabbed a tray and it didn't even look like food, i looked around for a place to sit and saw garza sitting at a table with Anthony. He waved me over so i decided to just go since i didn't have any better options. I sat down as they continued there conversation with the few other people who were at the table.

I stared down at the tray in search of something that looked edible. Anthony noticed and tapped the table making me look up and he tossed me a bag of chips and a few other things he got from commissary " appreciate ya" i said

Anthony nodded before going back to talking, after eating everyone started returning there trays and i threw my stuff away. After that i walked over to the phone and started calling one of the guys that was there when i got arrested.

It rang a few times and said the automated voice thing before i said my name and he answered " yo j how you feeling" he asked

Did this nigga really just. "How am i feeling? Nigga im in jail what you mean how im feeling" i said annoyed

Tre sighed " ight calm down, I might be able to bail you out but you need to go to court first. So sit tight, stop being a jerk and tell me if you need anything else" he said

I looked around the room as it got louder making me groan " i just need money on my books" i said

Tre laughed " yeah that should have been obvious, imma make sure you straight with money." He said

I smiled " ight thanks bro, hey you know anybody named Anthony" i asked

Tre went quiet for a second like he does when he's thinking " nah not anybody that would be in there, why?" He asked

I leaned against the wall slightly sighing " nah no reason, i gotta go alright" i said

Tre nodded " ight lil bro " he said and with that the call was over and i was back to reality.

If aint no body tell Anthony to make sure I'm okay then hes being nice for no reason and i don't trust that. I started walking back to my cell to go try and sleep or work out or something before i loose my mind up in this place. I walked in on garza and a bunch of other guys smoking something that didn't look like anything i'd ever seen before so i walked right back out of there.

I turned around and saw anythony walking towards where i was standing " you good?" He asked probably referring to when i didnt even think twice to leave the cell

I nodded " I fine, you going in there?" I asked with a curious look on my face

Anthony shrugged " they smoking in there?" He asked which i only nodded to " then nah" he said turning around and starting to walk again

I frowned slightly but that went away as i hesitantly followed after him " what they smoking in there that's that bad" i asked

Anthony didnt even look over at me as if he expected me to follow him into his cell. I only stood by the door though " clone, you smoke to much of that shit and you start seizing" he said

Tre used to smoke alot of that when he was in jail. " i deffently aint tryna go back in there" i said

Anthony looked up at me from where he was sitting " you can stay in here untill they done" he said

I heasited for a second before i sat across from him not even thinking about who's bed i was sitting on " where everybody else" i asked referring to his cell mates

Which he caught onto quickly " ones in the hole, ones smoking in yo room and the other downstairs arguing about the remote" he said

I laughed slightly making him smile, i glanced down for a second before looking back up at him " what you so nice for" i asked not being able to stop my self

Anthony laughed shrugging " i mean i didnt have to know you to know everyone's first time in jail is hard" he said

I half smiled " how you know it was my first time here" i asked

And his answer to that was short but it was something that made alot of sense " everything spreads fast here"

After the time we spent in the cell while they was still smoking i came to the conclusion that he was cool. It was probably the fastest I've ever warmed up to someone besides Tre.
