Hold You Down.

Ray.

Adrian**

I was released out the infirmary today back into a new cell. I was the only inmate in this cell thankfully cause these bitch ass niggas already giving me problems.

I straight up got my ass beat for the first time only reason I'm not gone kill that nigga is because I'm ready to get the fuck out this bitch with no time added.

"Lunchtime" the guard came over the speaker and the cells opened.

I'm not even hungry shit but I got out of my bunk and headed out the cell.

Walking towards the cafeteria it was inmates everywhere. Blacks, Whites, Hispanics, young and old. I don't fuck with no one in here and I'm definitely not trying to a nigga just trying to do his time and get the fuck on down.

"What's up young buck." This Tall buff black older looking guy walked passed me bumping me on my shoulder.

I just looked back and kept going I don't know I  don't understand why the fuck these niggas won't just let me mind my business.

Once in the cafeteria I got in line and grabbed a tray.

"2 Scoops , one piece of meat and one roll." That's it another inmate working in the cafeteria said to me putting the food on my plate.

"Yeah aight." I said back.

I looked around for somewhere to sit all the tables were full besides one in the very back, So I headed back there & sat down to eat my food.

"Adrian?" ..

I looked up to see a man looking up at me he had a tattoo of two tears under his right eye and a small cross in between his eyebrows, He had a low haircut and kind of buff.

"How you know me?" I asked him. 

Looking him up and down, I tried to remain calm in this motherfucker and these niggas steady picking, I'm not no pussy the next nigga try me and they gone see the real Adrian.

"I don't But, I know your father you look just like him, He use to be my best friend my name is Rahsaan Hussle call me Ray."

What the fuck this Hustle Dad.

I just sat there in silence staring at him. I remember the big portrait in Hustle Mom house of her and Ray But he look way older and rough so of course that's why I didn't recognize him at first.

"You Hustle dad?"

"Yeah, how's my son doing? I haven't seen him in 18 years, He hate me don't he?"

"He got shot two years ago and has been in the coma since, I just talked to him yesterday and he lost his memory he don't even remember me." I said tearing up.

I couldn't believe my boy couldn't remember me and I'm pretty sure he never will since I'm in prison and I can't be there by his side, It's a must I talk to Riana so she can get to him.

"What?" He said I can tell the look on his face he didn't know, Why didn't Hustle mom tell him?

"I haven't talked to him nor his mom since me and Antwon got locked up. She can't talk to me she's too in love with your dad." He went on then started laughing but it wasn't a funny laugh more hurt.

"Yeah, your dad and my wife went behind my back and got together,  Fucked up world huh? Me and your dad was boys, He crossed me out that's why your mom ratted him out and brought me down with him, I'm not even suppose to be here But, Here I am." 

All of a sudden Ray got up from the table grabbed his tray and walked away, I guess he really was hurt and angry inside but I ain't have nothing to do with that shit. I'm just as mad as him, Hustle my boy and he don't even know all this he's definitely not gone fuck with me again.

Damn man.

I couldn't eat after the conversation me and Hustle dad just had so I got up from the table too and threw my tray away.

We were still on lunch so I walked out into the yard. Where all the inmates chill while we're on lunch. It was a basketball court out here so some inmates were playing ball. We were fenced in so the area was limited and too me I'm just too close to so many niggas.

I walked out to an empty area and stood on the fence..

I saw a group of guys walking up to me they were black, A shorter guy with tattoos all over his body walked up to me with his lil crew behind him.

"I guess you new here huh?" He said to me with a smirk.

"I don't want no problems G." I said making eye contact with the guy. I know for facts I can whoop this nigga ass but his whole crew gone jump on me and I don't need that so I tried to keep my cool.

"Well, LIL NIGGA it's gone be a problem long as you in my fucking corner. This whole side got my name on it. So unless you trying to get down with us ima need you to walk off find somewhere else to stand."

I looked at him then at his crew and they looked like they was ready to run off in my shit.

"Last time I checked this whole prison got my fucking name on it now y'all get the fuck away from my son before everybody be dead."

I looked up & there stood my Dad....

"Haha my bad Twon you right ima walk away but just remember I'm coming for you and your territory believe that." The short guy and his crew walked away..

"Son." Antwon walked up to me I was so shocked and really relieved I didn't even say nothing.

Antwon grabbed me and gave me a hug. We both just stood there for a minute then I snapped out of my daze.

"Thank you but you didn't have to do that." I said still being stubborn. Just because this nigga stopped these niggas from jumping me I still don't fuck with him and he know that.

"Look, Son I know you hate me but you gone have to quit the tough act in here. I been running this bitch for over 15 years since I been here. You gone need me in this bitch these boys don't play they will kill you in here." He said coming up to me.

"NIGGA, I needed you outside of this prison and where was you at? I survived this far on my own without you I don't need you, Ain't no hoe in my blood I just don't want no extra time so I can go home and take care of my sisters you know something you obviously don't know how to do."

"Shut the fuck up boy you don't know what the fuck you talking bout." He snapped.

"I know you fucked your best friend wife you don't know shit about loyalty." I snapped back.

"You been talking to Ray? Have you seen him? Whatever he tell you is a fucking lie. Yeah, I did some fucked up shit but I never crossed him I always had his back. He still in his heart after almost 20 some years!"

The alarms went off letting us know it was time to go back into our cells. I looked Antwon up and down and walked away.

I can't believe this nigga really think I NEED him? Well, I'm just gone have to bring out the real Adrian and show him I don't Need no man! And I stand on that.
