she wanted to do was find Herman and check him about hitting her mother. Brianna wanted to do the same thing in finding Herman, but just not for the same reasons. It was something more important at stake right now. If Herman knew what to do with the body he had just discovered, it could easily get ugly for Brianna and whoever else he felt like screwing around.

Cowboy paced back and forth in his cell waiting for the lieutenant to come down the range. Right after the visit with Herman, Cowboy was taken straight to the hole, courtesy of Herman telling the Captain on his way out the door that Cowboy threatened to have him and his family killed. The Captain reacted swiftly by sending Cowboy to the hole for the rest of the weekend until he sorted everything out.
“C/O!” Cowboy yelled as he kicked the cell door. “C/O!” he continued, kicking the door and pushing the panic button.
The panic button was something that the guards could not ignore. It was policy that they had to check on the inmate, in case a medical emergency had occurred. The guard took his time coming down the range, seeing that it was Cowboy.
“Mr. Parsons, you better have a medical emergency,” the guard said walking up to the door.
“Yo, I told you to get the LT down here. It’s an emergency,” Cowboy yelled back, looking through the thin glass. “You said the Lt. was coming down here, and he ain’t come through yet.”
“I told you, Mr. Parsons, he is making his rounds. As a matter of fact, he is doing it as we speak,” the guard told Cowboy.
Ironically, the Lt. walked on the range just as the guard was going back to the bubble. He looked into every cell that he passed, and when he got up to Cowboy’s door, he was standing there waiting.
“Lt., why you got me in the hole? I didn’t do shit.” Cowboy said.
“You’re under the Captain’s review. Word is you should be getting out on Monday.” Lt. explained.
Monday was almost two days away, and Cowboy needed to contact Brianna now in order to warn her about Herman. Normally, Brianna would come to see Cowboy on the weekend, but when she did not come up, Cowboy had a feeling that something was wrong.
“Look Lt… I wouldn’t be asking you this if it wasn’t an emergency. I really need to call my daughter. I haven’t used the phone since I been down here. Can you please let me come out to at least make a phone call?” Cowboy pleaded in a low and respectable voice.
The Lt. looked at Cowboy and could see the concern written all over his face. Actually, a phone call was something easy the Lt. could sign off on, and in this case, he did just that.
“I will get the guard to let you out for 15 minutes when I leave off of this range. Do what you need to do and don’t cause any problems.” he said before walking off to finish making his rounds.
As promised, as soon as the Lt. walked off the range, Cowboy’s door was opened and he was allowed to come out. He tried to call Brianna’s phone, but it kept going straight to voicemail. He tried the whole 15 minutes he was out, but still got no answer. That didn’t do anything but make him more worried than he was before. Stressed out to the max, all Cowboy could do was head back to his cell and pray that God watched over his little girl.

The inside of Brianna’s car was dead silent the whole ride back to her house. The sisters had convinced Lorraine to come stay with them for a while, or at least until Brianna and Charrise had the opportunity to confront Herman about the situation. Nobody knew how long that could take, since he was missing in action.
Herman couldn’t be found anywhere. They drove around and checked his favorite drinking spots, along with the local eateries he liked. Still, there was no Herman. Getting Lorraine back to her place was all Brianna could do for now. Eventually, he would surface again, and when he did, Brianna was going to do what she should have done a long time ago, which
