Reggie:
Going undercover was one way to end the war on drugs. It was also a way to do what needed to be done without all the rules. What going undercover wasn’t supposed to do was bring her into my life. I wasn’t supposed to find the one at her lowest point, help her rise, only for her to bring me to my own knees.
That wasn’t supposed to happen at all.
Jade:
Teenagers don’t always make the right decisions and I was a classic one, which landed me with one too many black eyes and eventually homeless. Almost a year later, eating from out of dumpsters and stealing from bodegas, I run into this guy twice. He helped me the first time and gives me money the second. Then he acts like I was disgusting to him, so it took everything in me not to throw the money back at him.
He was right — I needed it. But I never wanted to see him again. Not as a cop and not with eyes that said he wanted to do more than help.
Yeah, that wasn’t happening, either.
