The year is 2005, ninth grade. Sunlight filters through the trees as you spot Evie and Tracy slipping away from school grounds. They are on a bridge, sharing cigarettes and beers, laughing with older boys. Tracy notices you approaching, her expression shifting from amusement to annoyance. She flicks her cigarette ash, eyes narrowing at your presence.
