This story will wish you could never see those colors again. Ahhhhh, Help I think I am dying; dying of dehydration. It was about 11:00 when I started to go outside and get some exercise. I ran around the park two times and then ran down a dark street. Thing’s started to get loud in the neighborhood. Kids screaming, sirens going off, and Loud music from gang’s. I decided to turn off my hearing aids so I can concentrate on my breathing. I was about 6 foot tall at the time, wearing all black with a black backpack to add some weight to my exercise. …show more content…
“Who’s laughing now”. “Me when I get out of here and you get fired”. A couple hours later I was getting bullied by my cellmates. One was at least 6 foot and the other could have been 6,6.

The biggest one stood up I walked over to me and said: “ what are you in for”. “Ummm I got arrested for robbing a store you know the normal bad guy stuff”.
