After the Breakdown: The Encounter
I am Jack's wasted tears. I spent ten months in an insane asylum/prison. I tried to keep to myself so that I wouldn't attract unwanted attention. The last thing I needed was for some guy to single me out and decided to prove his masculinity. My first week in, and my efforts were proven to be in vain. A guy named Jorge Fuente approached me during arts and crafts time. I was standing by the window, admiring the view of a broad landscape and a huge metal fence with razor wire at the top. I longed for freedom. If only I could get away from all those insane guys and talk to the head of the ward just long enough so that I could convince him of my sanity.
Someone had something else in mind. Jorge leaned in close and whispered in my ear, "Oi… hombre. Como se llama?"
I tried to ignore the bile rising in my throat. He smelled like stale whiskey. I glanced around and noticed he had several large, scary-looking Hispanic buddies watching me and waiting for my response. It seemed to me that this guy had connections in the asylum...if you know what I mean.
I knew it was a bad idea...but my disgust and anger pushed sane thoughts out of my mind and I replied, "My name is If You Don't Back Up Off Me I'm Gonna Scream. Nice to meet you...now I suggest you turn around and walk back quickly to wherever you came from."
The second the words were out of my mouth I knew I was a dead man.
