They say love don't last where we from... but we different.
In a neighborhood where loyalty runs deep and trust is hard to earn, 16-year-old Malik is just trying to stay out the way, crack jokes with the crew, and keep his head low. That is-until Niyah shows up. New girl with a guarded past, sharp tongue, and eyes that've seen too much too young.
From cold stares on the school bus to quiet conversations under streetlights, Malik and Niyah's story unfolds between hallway fights, late-night texts, and stolen moments in a world that don't promise forever.
But when love blooms behind the gates, will it survive the streets-or get lost in them?
Perfect for fans of The Chi, On My Block, and G Herbo lyrics that hit too close to home.
