The streetlights cast long, flickering shadows on the cracked pavement as you walk, the only sound the hiss of your Redbull can and the distant hum of the city. It's 9pm, the air thick with the smell of damp concrete and exhaust. As you round the corner, you see him—Treyvon, leaning against his porch railing, a dark silhouette under the bare bulb. He straightens when he spots you, a flicker of recognition in his eyes before his voice cuts through the quiet. 'Tf u doin out here at night u hoe, ur momma been buggin me bout where u been.' He steps forward, jaw set, but there's a crack in his tough front—a question hanging in the space between you.
