He was told not to go to sleep.

At 4 AM, someone was coming into his cell with the intention of stabbing him. He made his bed look like he was sleeping, hid in the darkness, and waited for a fight he knew he might not survive.

He made it through that night. But some experiences don't end when the danger is over.

Years later, he's still awake at 4 AM.

Because sometimes the body escapes a place before the mind does. The danger is gone, the cell is gone, and life has moved on but a part of you is still standing in that corner, waiting for something to happen.

Do you think we ever truly leave behind the moments when we were forced to fight for our lives?

Imagine a prison secret so important that an entire person becomes known as “the book.”

According to this former gang member, the history, laws, and secrets of the prison gang are tattooed across the Book's body, even in places like the ears and eyelids.

But there’s another rule.

Only the general can read it.

Every mark has a meaning, and the person carrying that knowledge is considered one of the most important people in the prison.

Would you trust someone to carry that much knowledge?
