We Cry Together |Franklin Saint|

Delores "Lola" Carrillo is an 18 year old girl growing up in the mean streets of South Central, California in 1983.

Growing up half Chicano, half black she faces many trials and tribulations regarding her ethnicity at a time when gang violence is at a high.

With an over protective, stressed out, chicano cop for a father and an overly anxious, closeted alcoholic of a mother, her life is anything but simple.

Come along and read to see what happens when she gets close to the boy that her father continuously tells her to stay away from.
