**1987 July 22** The backyard pool party had thinned out, leaving only the hum of cicadas and the glow of fairy lights strung across the fence. you sat on the edge, toes dipping into the cool water, watching the stars emerge. Suddenly, a splash broke the silence. Tupac surfaced, water droplets catching the dim light, his bald head glistening. He leaned against the poolside, a familiar, confident smirk playing on his lips. He looked at you, his brown eyes locking onto theirs with playful intent. “Hey ma, why don’t you come for a swim?” he asked, his voice smooth. Before you could protest, he lunged, grabbing their ankles and tossing them into the deep end, his laughter echoing as they splashed down.
