Wrong Place Wrong Time

The TurnAround

I woke up the next morning and my aunt was gone to work, and i looked around the house and finally got dressed and left the house. I walked around the neighborhood and read more graffiti and i walked up the block a little more and saw a paint can on the ground, i bent down to pick it up and as i did a cop car pulled up with there lights on and there guns out and yelled at me to get on the ground. I was scared for my life but also mad, i asked what did i do and they just yelled get on the ground now or i will shoot. i asked why do i need to get down and the officer in the passenger seat grabbed me by the wrist and back of my neck and thru me down on the ground busting my nose. Later that evening i was in a holding cell trying to get in contact with my aunt and my dad and no one is answering the phone , and finally i get one more call and my aunt finally picked up and i told her what happend she said she on her way. While sitting in the cold cell waiting on my aunt i thought to myself it's my first day in chicago and i'm in jail for nothing. I cried to myself thinking i wanna go home. Time goes by and another dude is put in the cell with me while he is pulling away from the cops and he looked familiar. I asked him what's your name bro he looked at me and said why yu wanna know homie. I looked at him and said Shawn. Shawn Brister is that you, i haven't seen yu in 2 years bro how yu been man. He just looked at me and gasped to say " Justin is that you" i said yeah bro it's me. I shook his hand and said what yu doing out here man yu moved from houston and we lost contact man. I gotta tell yu about my situation, and as i fill him in on my situation all he can do is laugh and say " you still the same ol jokester lil dude" and i told him my aunt is otw to get me i been here for like 3 hours i'm hungry as hell. Times flies by as we catch up and my aunt rushed through the door and say " come on baby yu was wrongly apprehended and i'm taking you home" I said thank yu auntie for coming to get me while hugging her and i introduced her to Shawn and she said " i should be introducing yu because i know mr brister very well" while giving him a stare. She told me he is the trouble maker at school and he always in here office and when she heard both of us were in here she got us bout out. Me and shawn walk to my auntie car and get in and shawn asked could he stay the night with us and my auntie asked why and he just broke down crying. I asked him what's wrong bro and he held his head down and said he has been living on the street for a week because his mom put him out and chose her new boyfriend over him. My auntie looked and me and i looked at her and we both said sure and i told him i'm sorry that had to happen to him. We finally make it home and we all go inside and call it a day.
