Im tryna get ready to go talk to the adminstrative commitee about my bail. Im slick happy inside cause I finally get to go home. I combed my hair then began walking to the commitee meeting room. I walked in and sat looking at all their faces. It was hard to tell what their expression was or if they even had an expression. Nothing but blank faces staring at me. " Well Ms. Johnson how are you? Im doing fine. Good, we notice that this is your first offense. Yes ma'am. Is their anything you wanna say before we make our decision.", one commitee member asked. I tried to think of the corniest shit I could the quickest I could." Well ladies and gentlemen of the commitee, im not gone get in front of you saying imma change my life around but I can tell you this has been an eye opener. The day I came here I made a friend. Her name was Leslie Hernandez. She had been in here for a really long time..... She was being rapped, by one of the male security guards here. I dont know his name but I know he rapped and beat her to death.
Maybe this is suppose to be rehabilitation or something like that but it nothing changed. I just continue to witness how fucked up ..... I mean messed up mankind can be.
Before I came here, I had a brother. He died being a loyal friend to someone who just happens to be a loyal friend to me and my other friend who's been there before I was doing any of this. So to sum up the purpose of what i've been tryna say is I just wanna do my time and get out." I sat down after that. They begin talking amoungst themselves and looking at me." It has come to our attention that you haven't been doing anything beserk. And this is your first offense..." Then another said." I notice you were arrrsted for selling marijuana, so your bail has been set to seventy dollars." I was soooo happy inside. " Thats all you can wait in your cell until somebody pays it." I got up. Thanked everyone and walked out. Once I got to my cell I started dancing. " Im bout to be out this bitch, aye im bout to be out this bitch." But I looked at Leslie's bunk. " I promise this for you Leslie."
