he s in a pissy ass mood today. he s starting to piss me off. they had a lot in common. they grew up in oakland s foster care system. they had both joined a gang, but dropped out shortly before we met them. and they both told us they were finally ready to give up their revolving door relationship with jail. one of the things about both gabriel and ezekial was their honesty. and i appreciate it. they were pretty honest about their lives. and when i asked ezekial how he made a living, how he used to make a living, he was very forthright and he told me he made a living robbing drug dealers. i only rob dope boys. what you re doing is illegal, so chances are if i do something illegal too, just going to chalk it up to the gang. there s a dangerous aspect to that. do you have any problems with that? i ve been shot. i ve been shot in my face, in my thighs, my back, my ass.
and he basically was just the person that gabriel described him to be. what s up, bro! ezekial was back in jail due to a probation violation on his original conviction for burglary. he was assigned to the same protective custody unit as gabriel, because he, too, had recently sworn off gang life. we tell each other every day, if i walk by here, point at me and do a little heart to me. i m like, my girlfriend. we ve been together my whole lives. we can probably count on one hand how many things i don t know about him. that s my brother. we grow up together, through the foster system and group homes, both our parents are deceased. it came to a point where if he couldn t stay at the group home i was in or foster home i was in, we would meet each other in the same spot. we will sleep in a stolen car together or, excuse my french, i won t tell it on camera, but we would be sleeping, and he would give me some food and every night, we would make sure it was all right.
