11 parts Ongoing MatureJust like any other city, the beauty of Chicago lies within the eye of the beholder. Despite the horrors that marked every local news outlet, to the natives, Chicago proved to go beyond the dozens of senseless tragedies.
For Carter Pearce, it was her home. The only place she knew would embrace her when the world around her had failed to keep her out of harm's way. For Dayvon Bennett, however, Chicago was a war zone. Yea these streets had raised him, but they had also stripped him away from nearly everything that gave him a reason to live. For every resident there, the city held a different meaning, but at the heart of the city, one thing remained constant, love.
Whether it be taking a life in the name of a loved one, or struggling to make ends meet to keep those you care about afloat. Regardless of the situation, there was a reason the people who lived here did the things they did, reasons that didn't need to be understood by the rest of the world.
In 'For the Love of Chiraq,' we experience the intertwining of two souls, burdened with the trauma's of their past and uncertain futures. Read as Carter and Von try to make room in their lives for a 'better feeling' as they navigate the harsh city around them.
A King Von fan-fiction.
