Ambra's POV

It was around midnight, and I was walking over to a friends.

I put on a big sweatshirt that reached my knees and put on sneakers.

I walked outside, to the park. I had left my bike there two days ago chained up. And now I wanted to ride it over to a party.

I squatted down and put the lock in the keyhole, trying to unlock it.

Damn, little cold. I'm definitely gonna miss the summer.

My key snapped as I went to unlock it.

Dammit! What the fuck? This is just my luck!

I pulled on the chain a few times. I stood up and shook my bike around, trying to yank it out the rack. I was getting aggravated really fast.

I saw a flash behind me. "Hey! What're you doing?"

I turned around.

Sure enough, there was a cop car.

"Oh, I'm sorry officer, my key broke."

"Yea, right. Were you trying to steal that bike?" "No, but if I were I wouldn't admit to it."

Shit! That's not something I should of said.

"Excuse me?" He yelled.

"Look, sir, I live right around the corner. I'm Ambra Espinosa, I can show you my ID."

He nodded, waiting for me to show it.

I felt around my pockets.

Of course! Why would I bring my ID to a party?

"Look, I left it at my house. I'm so sorry!"

"Yea, of course."

The second officer stepped outside his car, and they looked pissed.

"Guys, my key broke. I was just getting my bike that I left here by accident. I couldn't get the chain off. I can walk you guys over to my house."

"No. Stay right there."

"But-"

"I'm gonna need you to put your hands on your back."

"Officer-"

"Put your hands on your back!"

"I-"

He grabbed me harshly, putting my hands behind me.

"Hey! Get off!" I yelled.

"Stop resisting arrest!"

"Get the fuck off me!" I yelled, shoving him backwards.

The second officer shoved me down and they held me down with their knees, putting me in cuffs. They weren't the gentlest.

Pretty much stood on my back, yanked my arms. And when I stood back up in cuffs, trying to tell them to stop, they yelled at me to shut up and shoved me back down, while I was in handcuffs so I couldn't help but get hurt in the fall.

They shoved me into the car and I heard one say to the other "Just another black, stealing shit"

So that's what this is about.....






















Oh shit.

Yup. Even Ambra faces racism.
