"Oh but wait-"

"No."

"But what if-" she tried to continue.

"No." i repeated

"Please it will only-"

"I said no isabelle." i shot her a look.

"But why?" she whined. "We'll be in and out like that." she snapped her fingers.

I plainly looked at her, "it literally says 'No trespassing' in big red letters." i pointed to the sign that was just above our heads.

"But there's only two of us." she said.

"What?" i was totally lost.

"Well tres means three in spanish and there's only two of us. Therefore that sign does not apply to us." she replied. "Duh."

"You're the dumbest piece of shit i've ever known isabelle." i rolled my eyes at her stupidity.

"Come on." she motioned me over closer to the fence, which was about 6 feet away.

I trudged over the fence as she climbed it almost falling. If it wasn't for her tight grip on the fence she would have hit her back on the ground. She swung her leg carefully over the fence and jumped down from the top, stumbling as she tried to regain her balance. "Well, what are you waiting for? Climb that fence girl."

She started to back away from the fence slowly, as if she was trying to coax me to the otherside. Since leaving my best friend by herself in uncharted territories was not an option, i climbed the fence.

Once i gracefully hopped down from the fence, i studied my surrounding as per usual. I saw a bunch of wooden crates whether they were open or closed, they all had the same black writing on them which spelled out JACKSON CO. and smaller red letters that spelled out fragile. It was somewhat strange to see one company have their crates in one area where they weren't located at but i didn't look too into it. besides, many companies leave their boxes and crates lying around abandoned buildings and lots when they don't have time to properly dispose of them.

I shook my head to get out of my thinking mode, which ultimately means i was zoning out a little too long. When i searched for isabell i saw her jogging up to the tall grey building that looks like it has been vacant for at least six years.

Ever since Trump was elected back in 2016 and took over in 2017 everything went downhill. The mafia came out of the shadows and started doing business in broad daylight. They became more powerful than they ever had been. We had more crooked cops, more corrupt politicians, and dangerous felons were left to scour the streets since the prisons were overflowing with inmates.

Trump is on his second term, it's been six years and he has not decided to step down from his empire. I don't think that he will ever step down, everyone's too afraid to speak about him or try to take him down. They all get sent to death row if they do.

There's more bad than good on the street now, cops don't care if you're black, white, brown, or pale, they will shoot you if they feel like it and blame it on anyone or anything. Not like they have to, no one cares.

It's like the mafia runs the country, they are the ones making alliances with mafia families from other countries. Of course we are the most powerful considering we have the biggest cartel along with the biggest human trafficking system, most money, largest army, and we literally control the internet. It's 2022 for god sakes, hillary clinton was sent to jail, the government alongside the italian-american mafia monitors our text and call logs, california is deserted and is now landfill and chemical dump due to the drought which forced the inhabitants out of the state, and let's not forget it's like we don't know how to speak anymore, we can't stop them. They're invincible.
