 I remember turning over in my bed and falling face first on the concrete floor. `` UGH!'' I groaned. I clutched my aching face and opened my eyes. Nothing but darkness. For a moment I thought I might have gone blind, but finally my eyes began to adjust. Everything was so quiet. I want to use the word “ pristine ” but the sounds of mice crawling took away from the elegance of it all. I silently crawled in one particular direction with my hand out in front of me. Cold concrete. I stood up and put my back to the wall, unsure of where I was. Slowly and quietly, I moved to my left. My foot hit something cold and hollow. I tried to make out the object by feeling it and picturing what it could be. Rectangular…oval…water in the middle? “ Is this the fucking bathroom ” I remember thinking. 
 
 I started moving in the opposite direction and then my hands touched cold steel. Bars. I could have sworn time froze in that moment. Bars + Bed + Toilet in the same room could only mean one thing. Millions of thoughts rushed through my head but I kept thinking this was some sick joke my friends are playing on me. I could still hardly see five feet in front of me. “ MIKE, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? ” I shouted as I rattled the bars. “ GET ME THE FUCK OUTTA HERE! ” All of the sudden the lights turned on and I instantly knew this wasn ’ t a joke. There I was, in the top corner of a two story prison with at least 15 cells on both floors. At least that ’ s all I could count given where I was. I backed away from the bars until I was deep in the room against the back wall. Panic and terror rushed to my head when I realized I just woke up the entire prison. At that point, I started arguing with my own thoughts. “ You ’ re a fucking idiot. You dug your own grave. You ’ re so dead ” … “ No, man up and punch some dude in the face. Show them you ’ re a fighter. Make them know you ’ re not fresh meat ” … “ You know what they do in prison. You ’ re done for. You ’ re going to get raped and killed ” … “ Pretend you ’ re an animal. Go crazy. Hit the guard or something ” 
 
 Then I heard a buzz and my door opened wide. I didn ’ t flinch. “ Is this a joke? ” I thought. I moved closer to the door, step by step, testing to see if anything would happen. I half expected guards to rush in and start beating me but I couldn ’ t hear a thing. I took my pillow and threw it outside the room. To be honest, I ’ m not even sure why. I peeked my head outside but nobody else was out of their cells and no guards were to be seen. I stepped outside and slowly made my way down the walkway. I walked towards the cell adjacent to mine, hoping to get some answers, but the man was sound asleep. The next cell belonged to a giant of man. 6 foot at least and all muscle. He looked to be twice as big as the bed and I ’ m surprised he even fit. “ Pssst. ” I whispered. He started snoring. Not the real snoring though. Years of sleepovers and fooling parents, I knew what was real and what wasn ’ t but I decided to let it slide. The next cell belonged to a frail old man with tattoos across his face. “ Hey ” I whispered again. “ You awake? ”. He turned over, opened his eyes to look at me, then rolled out of the bed cowering in fear. “ I ’ M SORRY. I ’ M SORRY. I ’ M SORRY!!! PLEASE FORGIVE ME ” he yelled. I was so startled I jolted back and quickly walked past his cell. I could still hear him whimpering. I passed the other cells and headed for the only door in the room. 
 
 The door had a glass window and on the other end was a room full of screens capturing the entire facility and the cells. Ironically a few cameras were turned off, all of which happened to be facing the wall of my cell. Instantly, a guard dressed in a gray outfit appeared, fidgeting for his keys. He opened the door but stared at the floor the entire time. “ I ’ m sorry, sir ” he said. I looked him over and noticed his name tag read “ Mike ”. “ Don ’ t let it happen again ” I said, and walked back to my cell.
