My name is Adelyn Tomlinson. I am 17 years old. Most kids my age are in high school, but not me. Why  would need an education when all I was destined to do was be in the family business? You're probably wondering what this family business is, aren't you? The gang. The Malik's and my family have been in a feud for years. I'm not really ever truly sure of the reason why.  My parents were killed when I was 14. Louis, being 18 at the time, stood in their place. He's raised me as well as he possibly can by himself, but he can't protect me forever. At the age of 18, I too will be a part in the family gang. I've known this for my whole life, but I know I'm not ready. I turn 18 in less than 6 months. I've been raised in this lifestyle my whole life, but I have yet to retain any strategic qualities. I'm a girl, none of the men in Malik's gang will feel threatened by me. I'm the first girl born into my family in generations. I am vulnerable.
