*PLEASE COMMENT AND VOTE* Forced into the game by his father, Sincere aka "Coke", had a different type of hunger for the hustle. He did what he had to do by any means, even if that meant killing a few people. Unlike some of the others in his crew, Sincere was smart and had no regrets for the choices he's made. One revengeful drive-by however, was one moment he wished he could take back. A lot of innocent lives were ruined that day, including Hazel Barnes, a local crime activist who crawled her way into a young thug's mind and heart without even seeing his face. Hazel had a bright future ahead of her. Being the prodigy child, there was nothing she could do wrong. Except for falling in love with the one guy who goes against everything she believes in. Hazel doesn't know what's right and what's wrong. But what she does know is, she won't let her disability stop her from going after the one thing that makes her feel alive again. Even if that one thing is what caused her to be disabled to begin with. Both Sincere and Hazel can't help but go after the thing they want. And it's because of this that they go down a long path of destruction and disaster together. In the end, the one thing that's most important, is the only thing that keeps them apart. Maybe for good.
