Day 13
The nurse was petite. The clipboard looked overwhelming in her small brown hands. She had one of those 1980s asymmetrical haircuts, like Mary J. Blige back in the day. It was died honey blonde and shaved in the back, but not tapered; the top looked like a mushroom, tightly curled under. The cheap bleach job left her hair dull and evaporated.
Although Angelique didn’t approve of her choice of hair style, Nurse Danisha was one of the nicer one’s. The other nurses closely inspected each inmate to be sure they ingested their medicine. The procedure was to empty the cup of pills into your mouth, hand the empty pill cup back to the nurse, at which time she would hand you a bigger cup with a half cup of water. Then the water had to be consumed right there in front of the nurse to be sure those pills were in their bellies and not being bartered for other items later on. Nurse Danisha followed protocol, but she always seemed more preoccupied with the information on her clipboard, rather than monitoring the patients. She knew most of the women in the medical cell block were too dependent on their meds to want to sell or trade them. Their addictive natures wouldn’t allow them to stockpile medication to vend. Many of the women were suffering from withdrawal from heroin, crack, cocaine, and meth. The medication was their lifeline.
“Rosa Suarez.” She spoke in a whisper.
“Good morning Nurse Danisha.” The nurse told the women to call her by her first name, which the other personnel hated because it violated the whole master and slave protocol which is used to keep prisoners in their place.
Angelique put the cup to her mouth, and then slanted it slightly below her lip, letting the pills fall directly into her closed palm. This was the same trick she used when a well-paying mark insisted she take ecstasy. She then quickly and smoothly handed the nurse back the cup, and drank the second cup, filled with water.
“Thanks.” Angelique uttered casually as she glanced up at the other nurses and guard, who were enthralled in a conversation, so she knew her stunt went unnoticed. The first opportunity she got, she made sure to flush the pills down the toilet.
