HERRARCHIVEDFILES
On the Southside of Chicago, life move fast -
but sometimes the softest things happen in the loudest places.
Renae Coleman never asked for attention.
Quiet, observant, soft-spoken... she stay out the way, mind her business, and keep her world small.
Until Johnny McCoy steps in - the hood-calm, unreadable boy who somehow sees everything about her.
What starts as small looks and slow conversations turns into late-night walks, shared hoodies, and a connection neither one of them know how to explain.
While their friend group battles their own chaos -
Deja & Dayvon arguing like they married,
London & Rashad falling in and out of soft moments,
Renae finds herself learning that loving somebody from the Southside ain't scary...
as long as the person holding you is gentle with you.
Between school hallways, downtown adventures, riverwalk nights, and block noise,
Johnny and Renae end up teaching each other what real comfort feels like -
quiet love in a loud city.
