I was packing my bag to spend the night with my boyfriend, Kay. He was locked up, but he finally qualified for conjugal visits, and I jumped at the chance to spend two whole days with him. I folded clothes and tucked away some personal items we’d need, zipping up my bag when I was done. Next, I went through my drawers looking for something to wear. I pulled out a matching set and headed toward the bathroom.

I turned on my speaker, letting Lovers/Friends by Kaytranada & Rochelle Jordan fill the room, before stepping into the shower. When I was done, I wrapped a towel around me, stood at the sink, and brushed my teeth. After finishing, I headed back into my room, moisturizing my body before slipping on my matching set. Sitting down at my vanity, I took off my bonnet to reveal my freshly pressed hair I had just gotten it trimmed and pressed the day before. I applied some Vaseline to my lips, then stood up, grabbing my bag and my phone.

At the door, I slid on my black fuzzy boots and left. Getting into the car, I turned on my music and began the long drive to the prison. My stomach was full of nerves, but under it all, I was excited to finally see him. Two hours later, I arrived. Grabbing my bag, I walked inside. They identified me, searched both me and my things, then escorted me to the trailer where we’d be staying. I started unpacking a few of my items when a knock on the door made me pause.

I walked over and opened it slowly, and there he was my boyfriend. A smile spread across my face before I jumped into his arms, wrapping my legs around him and holding on tight.

“I missed you,” he said, tightening his grip on me. He carried me inside, closing the door with his foot, and walked over to the bed before sitting down, still holding me close.
