“Jason!” I yelled after him but he walked away smiling. Wasn’t shit funny. What the f..
“Come on, lil’ mama,” the guard said to me as she led me back to my cell.
“What’s going on? And who are you?” I asked as she smiled and unlocked my cell.
“Officer Reed. But we’ll talk in a minute. Pack up, you’re going to population.”
My eyes shot open. “What?”
“It will all be over soon,” is all she said as I packed up my blanket and mattress.
“What will be over soon?!”
“Girl, if you don’t hurry your cry baby ass up and come on. I got you.”
“Got me? Huh?”
She rolled her eyes and popped her gum. Guards wasn’t even supposed to have gum. I oughtta snitch on her ass. But I wasn’t in the position to do it. “Come on.” She snatched me out the cell by my arm and led me thru the door. When we got further down the hall, she pulled me into a mop closet.
“Ayy, I don’t know what you got going but I like dick. Not pussy.”
She laughed loudly as she shut the door. “Clearly. You in here because you like dick so much. But listen, I’m Jason’s cousin, Trina. But call me Officer Reed when we’re in front of other inmates and officers. You don’t know me. He got pinned up a few months ago. Some bitch snitched on him when she got caught transporting his drugs…”
She stopped and looked at me, making sure I was still keeping up. I started getting light headed. “So what?”
“She’s here. And she’s the lead witness in his case. She gets caught and he goes away for life.”
I laughed. “And? That’s right up my alley.”
She shook her head. “He’s not the only one that will go down. Who do you think his plug is? Who you think he gets his drugs from? Think, missy. Think.”
“Bitch, I don’t know. Not me. And that’s all that matters. It stinks in here,” I said as I dropped my blanket and covered my nose.
She pulled an Iphone out her titties and faced time someone. When they answered, she handed me the phone. My dad was on the screen. “Dad?”
He was eating chicken and drinking beer like his daughter wasn’t in jail for murder. Big, ugly ass! “Baby, you haven’t been talking to the cops have you?”
“Hell yea! I told them that I didn’t do shit! I was framed, dad!” Why was I talking to him in jail? It was all starting to make sense. It hit me. I could tell that he knew I was starting to catch on by the way he smiled.
“You don’t want daddy to go to prison, do you?”
I shook my head. “So it begins,” I said.
“Her name is Shelly. You will know her when you see her. Trina will show you her. You have everything you need. It has to happen at midnight when count is going on. Got it?”
“Cameras are everywhere, dad.”
“Don’t you worry about that. I got it taken care of,” Trina said.
“And stop looking at me like that,” I said.
“Who me?” My dad asked.
“No, I’m talking to Trina.”
“Officer Reed. Don’t make me tell you again.”
“I’m not afraid of you.”
“Missy! Shut the fuck up and do what she says!” My dad yelled. “Don’t talk to her like that and she’s trying to help you!”
“And you don’t talk to me like that. The fuck?” I said, rolling my eyes.
“You want to come home or no?”
“I do but why ya’ll couldn’t have another bitch do this? Why a murder charge? I would have preferred for ya’ll to put weed on me and send me here. Not a body. And who in the hell killed Jesny? Ya’ll just gonna fuck my life up to save ya’ll asses? You wait til I tell mama,” I said.
He smirked and put the camera on my mom. “Hey, baby,” she said.
“No you didn’t ! With your fake holy ass! You knew this the whole time! Wait until I tell nana!” No wonder she was acting so non chalant on the phone.
"I told you just let it work out," she said.
"You going to hell."
“Just do what Trina says. See you in a few days. You do everything right and I might see you tomorrow night.”
“And what if it don’t go as planned?” I asked.
“It will. You my child.”
“Dad?”
“Huh?”
“What if this Shelly bitch whoops my ass and kill me?” This was all bad.
“Bye, Missy.” He hung up.
Trina handed me a sharp ass shank. I almost cut my damn self while touching it. “Take it. Make sure you get her in the throat. Don’t leave her cell until it’s done. Got it?”
I burst into tears like a little ass bitch. “Got it.”
She laughed and hugged me. “It’s okay. I promise. I’m going to make it look like a suicide. I have to do my rounds and that’s when I will act like I found her dead. I will wipe your prints and everything. Just leave it to me. Don’t you worry about nothing.”
“Get off of me,” I said as I sniffled and wiped my nose.
“Let’s do this,” she said as we walked to another slide door. “Here we go.”
We walked inside and I instantly got scared. Ratchet and dike bitches were everywhere. They looked at me like a piece of meat when Trina…I mean Officer Reed…walked me in. “Which one is her?” I asked as she walked me to the cell that was cleared out for me.
“Don’t look hard, just look out the corner of your eyes. She’s right there in the TV area.”
I slightly turned my head and felt better when I saw that she was small. I could handle her. “Oh yea? Ol’ girl with the pony tail?”
Trina laughed. “Oh no, honey. The one with the braids, doing pushups. Right beside her.”
My heart dropped to my feet. This bitch was big, tall and fat as hell. She reminded me of Cleo from the movie Set It Off with Queen Latifah. I grabbed Trina’s arm. “This bitch gonna kill me.”
“Get off of me. I told you not to do that shit. You don’t know me. Remember?” She jerked her arm away from me. “Get in here and put your stuff down. You got two hours until it goes down.”
I started shivering and shaking. “How will I know when it goes down?” I asked.
“We’re going to experience a brief power outage during count time. you will only have three minutes to get it done.”
“Three minutes? Power outage? How in the entire fuck am I supposed to see her? Lawd, I’m about to die.” I sat on the bed and fanned myself.
“Toughen up, lil’ mama. Go mingle.” She walked away.
I put my stuff down and walked to the day room. it was loud as hell. People were yelling, shooting dice and arguing on the phones begging for money on their books. I watched Shelly as she walked to her cell. It was right beside mine. I looked over at Trina. She laughed. Everyone though this was a joke but me. I came in here for a murder that I didn’t commit just to commit a real one. If only I wouldn’t have met up with Jason that night.
“Ay, come here,” I heard someone say.
I looked up and saw that it was Shelly. I stood where I was at and made her come to me. “Whats up?” I asked, trying to sound hard.
“You cute. I see the way you watching me.” She bit her crusty lips.
“What?”
“Don’t act dumb now. You get down?”
“Get down?”
She looked down at her crotch. “You get down with the get down?”
I had a headache. “What the fuck you trying to say to me?”
“You like pussy? Or you a pillow princess?”
“What the f-”
She grabbed my hand. “Let me show you what I mean.” She was dragging me to her room. I looked at Trina for help.
“Ay! Aint no hanky panky! Let her go!” Trina yelled form the top of the stairs. How the fuck she get up there that fast?
Shelly laughed. “Come on, Reed! I just wanna talk to her!” Shelly yelled up to her.
I shook my head no behind Shellys back. When she looked at me, I looked down, acting like I wasn’t just shaking my head at Trina. “No! Let her go before I write your ugly ass up! You always tryna eat some new pussy! Ya tongue gonna fall off!” Trina yelled as she shook her head.
Everyone erupted in laughter and Shelly finally let me go. “I’ll see you later,” she said to me as she walked off.
“You sure will,” I said under my breath.”
I sat down and chilled, gathering my thoughts before I became a murderer.
**two hours later**
“Count time, ladies! Trina yelled as everyone made their way to their cells.
I rushed to my cell and put the shank and in bra. I said a prayer. “Lord, I come to you as humbled as I ever been. Forgive me for my sins and for what I’m about to do. You get me out of this alive, I will be celibate until marriage. A dick will never touch my mouth again. Amen.”
The minute I stood up from my knees, the lights went out.
It was time. I didn’t know how to feel. As everyone panicked, I used my night vision and crept to Shelly’s cell. The minute I stepped inside, she was standing. Almost like she was waiting for me.
“I knew you would come. I wont bite. Come lay right here.” It took me a few seconds to realize that this girl didn’t have no clothes on.
“Lay down. Let me take care of you,” I said as I eased towards her. I didn’t even sound right saying that shit. I felt so nasty.
My heart was pounding. I could hear it. Time was running out. Fuck it. I could barely see but I saw her big ass legs spread apart. I reached up where her neck was and started stabbing her.
I stabbed and stabbed until I knew she was dead. I felt like crying. Before I could run to my cell, the lights came back on.
Shelly was staring right at me…alive and shit. I was confused. I felt like I was in a bad dream but it was real life. Why wasn’t she dead?. I got my answer when I looked to the side of her.
I ran to my cell and locked myself in.
My dumb ass didn’t kill shit but her mattress…
I could kick my own ass.To be continued....
