I've been avoiding risk my whole life. That's what you learn to do growing up well-off in a place like Detroit. This is a city that knows how fast things can turn.
That white boy made me forget myself. A few moments in his presence and I was consumed by a madness. I did things I never dared dream of.
But it doesn't feel wrong. It feels like freedom.
I shouldn't go back to him. He's from the wrong part of town. He makes a living out of violence. He's a risk in my unblemished life. One time was enough of a flirt with danger.
Thing is, he might just have me addicted.
SEAN:
I've fought for everything I've got in this world. My fists won me a new life, away from the squalor of my South Detroit past.
Now I'm starting to get my reward: money, fame, girls.
The waitress was just supposed to be one of many. Black girls weren't even my type, but something in her set me off. Everything about her screamed class - a word that had never been in this poor boy's vocabulary.
I thought I just wanted a taste of it. Turns out it's not the thrill I'm after.
It's her.
I've gotta show her that I can be more than my body. She wants me to fight for her heart?
Girl, get ready to be knocked out.
