“Yoooo, can I get some answers? Phone call? Something!” I yelled at the guard who passed my cell. I had been sitting in jail a day and no one had bothered t let me out of my cell. Not even to shower!
“Shut up, Princess. You got a visit,” the guard said as she smiled and let me out the cell. They had me in solitary for some odd reason. I was going crazy and I wanted Jason dead. Not in jail, I wanted him DEAD! Deader than dead if that was possible.
“Where to?” I asked when we got to the end of the hall.
She pointed to some booths to my right and uncuffed me. “Thirty minutes,” she said as she whistled as walked away.
When I sat down, I got the shock of my life. Jason had the nerve to bring his trifling’ ass to come and see me. I rolled my eyes. “Hi, baby. Smile.” He smiled.
“Don’t call me bay,” I spat, rolling my eyes.
“You know, you didn’t have to kill her. Death is never the answer.”
“Guard!” I yelled. I was sick to my stomach and ready to go.
He laughed. “Okay okay let me chill. Sit down. Whats wrong with you? Geesh?”
I looked at him like he was a maniac. He thought this was a joke. “You had me to suck your dick and then got me locked up. You’re fucking sick.” I sat back down.
He bit his lip. “Na, you sick. Sick with that mouth.”
“Guard! Visit over!” I yelled, standing up again. I was not about to let him taunt me any longer.
“I can get you out of here,” he said, “but you have to do something for me.”
I rolled my eyes. “Yea right.” I didn’t have time to listen anyway. The guard had already came.
“I had a plan all along!” He yelled as the guard walked me away. I was so sick to my stomach. I cant believe I allowed him to do this to me.
When I got back to my cell, I laid on my bunk and thought long and hard. All I had to do was think in this bitch. I thought about every single thing. Everything that happened. That’s when I got a bright idea. I hopped up and begged the guard to let me make a phone call. I’m sure by now she knew I was locked up. Everyone knew.
When the guard finally let me out, I called mama. She accepted the call and I had a quick moment of happiness. I just knew she was about to go off when she heard my voice. “Mama, I can explain.”
“No need.”
“Huh?”
“No need. You’ll be out soon.”
I was confused. “But. They got me in here on a murder charge. You do know that right?”
“I know and I also know my child. I know you wouldn’t kill anyone. God will work it all out,” she said. I rolled my eyes. I was all for God but I wasn’t tying to hear about him right now. I needed a lawyer and she wanted to talk about God. I needed God too but I needed him to get me a lawyer.
“Is dad getting me a lawyer?”
“He said not now but-”
“What the fuck? But what? I need a fucking lawyer!”
“Baby, just listen to me. Listen closely. Let it all work out. It will work out.”
“Do you understand that they will try to give me a court appointed lawyer? And then I will be fucked!”
“I’m sure it wont go that far.”
“Mama, I’ll call you back.” She was making me mad. When I hung up, I called my grandmother. She answered to. My nana was like my best friend so I didn’t even need to fake the funk. I needed one thing and not a lecture.
“Girl, you out here thinking you the chain saw?” She asked.
“Not now, nana. Text Jesny and tell her I said to come see me. I don’t want to talk to her over the phone. Tell her she needs to come.”
“Okay, baby,” she said. I didn’t want to make her phone bill go up so I told her that I loved her and hung up.
I smiled when I got back to my cell. Jesny knew me and she knew I didn’t kill anyone. Most importantly, she can tell them how she talked to me last night and how I had no idea that Cheray was even dead.
Na, that wouldn’t work. It wasn’t hard enough. I needed something solid that would stand. They would think she just made it all up. But she was on my call records though. But na, it wouldn’t stand? Would it?
Fuck!
The next morning:
The guard came and opened my cell. “What is it now?” I asked. I wasn’t hungry or in the mood for visits. It was starting to feel like I could actually spend my life in this bitch. I felt like I was in the twilight zone. Everybody was acting stupid!
“Interrogation time,” she said with a smile.
Shit, I smiled too. I had one more trick up my sleeve. When I got into the room, two detectives were waiting on me. One was a black woman with eyebrows the size of thread. And she had the nerve to draw it on. The other one was a white man with a chipped tooth. They looked like they didn’t know what they were doing. I was about to go to prison for life. She didn’t even care about her brows so I know she didn’t care about me. Hell….
“Have a seat, Missy,” she said.
I rolled my eyes and sat down. Before she threw some bogus ass offers, I said what I had to say. “I met Jason up at Big T. He was already there. He had his car, not me.”
“And what were ya’ll doing?” She asked.
“Talking.”
“Talking? Don’t lie. It wont help you,” she said, lifting her thin ass eye brows.
“It’s personal but…”
“You are being charged with murder. Nothing is personal.”
“I was sucking dick, okay!!!!! Goddamn!”
She didn’t smile or anything. She stayed professional. I guess her ugly ass did know what she was doing. “And what happened after you performed oral sex?”
“Oh we being fancy? Oral sex, huh?”
“You’re wasting time.”
“He asked me to kill Cheray. He even placed the gun in my hands.”
“And you say you met him.”
“Yes. I had a gold Acura parked right beside him. Why would I have my car and his car if I stole it like he said? Think. And I had talked to my friend Jesny that night. Check my call log. I didn’t even know Cheray was dead until she told me. Think,” I said as i sat back in my hard seat.
She looked at her partner. I guess that was her partner. “So, that gold acura is your car?” she asked.
“Hell yea that’s my shit.”
“And you do know a Jesny Warren?” she asked.
I let my eyebrows sink low. “Yea. That’s her last name.”
Finally the old white man spoke. “This is why they say shut up and lawyer up.”
“You know you done fucked up, right?” Thin brows asked me. I wanted to ask her why she had black liner around her lips but it wasn’t the time. I would ask whenever I got free.
“What?” I asked.
She tossed some pictures at me. “Is this Jesny?” She asked. it was Jesny. She was dead in the trunk of a car. Yoooooo. What the fuck?
“Huh?”
“And guess who’s car she was in?”
I didn’t even have to think. I saw my waist trainer in the picture. I knew it was mine. I wanted to cry. Fuck that, I started crying hard as hell. “Mine.” I was boohooing. Breathing hard and shit. My eyelashes started hanging of my eyes but I didn’t care.
“She took you to steal Jason’s car and you killed her when ya’ll got alone,” thin brows said.
“What? No! Why would I do that? Who sent you??!!!”
“Because she was going to tell that you killed Cheray! You wanted to cut all loose ends!” The white man yelled. They loved putting words in peoples mouths.
“I never said that!”
“You had her pick you up to go steal Jasons car! Then you pulled up to Cherays house! She opened the door because she saw Jasons car and thought it was him but it was you! Then you killed her and cut her head off! then you left the head for Jason to see and took the body! Cheray was going to tell so you killed her when you lured her to Big T’s parking lot!!!!” He yelled louder and louder.
I blinked tears out of my eyes. “No! No! That’s not what happened!”
“Then what happened?”
“I don’t know!” I yelled as I beat on the table and went crazy. They smiled and told the guards to escort me out. “Don’t touch me! Don’t touch me! All I did was suck dick last night! That’s it! I killed no one! I’m innocent!” I yelled as I screamed and kicked.
“Yea yea. Shouldn’t have been sucking dick,” the male guard said as they tossed me in visitation.
“Thirty minutes!”
I turned around and saw Jason. “ahhh!!!!” I charged at the glass and started screaming. “You set me up!!!! You set me up!!! I hate yooooouu!” My nose was all snotty, tears were falling, my left eye lash was hanging off. I just looked stank. I know it.
How did I go from sucking dick to wearing a jump suit.
“Settle down so we can talk,” he said calmly.
I took a deep breath and sat down. “I’m calm.”
“So, I’m sure you know by now that Jesny won’t be coming to see you.” I looked up at him because how did he know I wanted her to come see me? Right. I know how. “Yes, I saw the text,” he said as he put her phone to the window to show me the text that my nana had sent.
"Jesny was alive last night . I talked to her."
"But did you talk to her two hours after you got locked up?"
“Why are you doing this?” I asked.
“I’m glad you asked. I need a favor. You do this and you will be free.”
“What’s the favor?”
He pointed behind me and I saw another guard standing there. “She has a message for you. You have twenty four hours.”
“Twenty four hours for what?” I asked.
He smiled and stood up. “See what happens when you try to out think me? See you tomorrow, snookums."
Jesus, if you get me out of this, I'll never suck another dick again.To be continued....
