"Josey! Josey!" A voice excitedly called me from across the road.
I turned around and shielded my eyes to get a better look.
It was Jethro. I smiled and waved. I crossed over to greet him and give him a hug.
When I finally climbed into my mom's car, my mom turned to me and raised her eyebrows with a quirky smile.
"What's wrong with that boy?"
I shook my head. "Na."
How can Josiah afford to have romance in her life when she's too busy fighting battles and hiding scars and family secrets? In her line of work she can't afford to be in love, she can only be courageous.

Enlighten Me
"Michael!" was the last thing I heard before gunshots echoed down the street. I heard mama scream before the clicking of her heels hitting the asphalt.
