</h1><<narr "School">>
Graduation day. For most people, it's about caps, gowns, and walking a stage.
For me? It's the day I step out of one life into another.
I couldn't care less about the diploma - what matters is the name I carry, and the family waiting for me. After all, I am a <<= $lastName>> and today is the day I earn my seat at the table.
<</narr>><<say "Principal""Resources/Images/Principal.png">>Ah Mr. <<= $lastName>>, what an honor! You must be so proud of your son today.
<</say>><<say "Dad""Resources/Images/dad.png""right">>Pride doesn't mean much in my world, Principal Fletcher. But today? Yes... he gave me a reason.<</say>>

Perhaps, after the ceremony we could have a private word about continuing your generous... support?<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>No Principal Fletcher.

<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>Excuse us Principal, we're going to take our seats.<</say>>

They said he never felt it. One shot right through the chest, before I even knew what was happening.

</h1><<narr "Verith City Airport">>
Back home, my name carried weight. Every corner, every street, people knew who I was.
Here in Verith?
I was just another nobody. Just a tourist with a suitcase. Whoever I thought I was back in New York really didn't mean a damn thing here.
As for Gary, I hadn't seen him since I was a kid. Last I remembered, he was the guy everyone talked about when I was younger - the one who got himself exiled.

Toss your bag in the trunk.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>I thought they cut you off years ago.<</say>><<say "Gary""Resources/Images/gary.png""right">>They did. But family's family, right? You'll learn soon enough - nobody ever really gets out. Not even me.<</say>>
<<narr>>Gary popped the trunk of his car. I tossed my bag inside and sat down on the passenger seat. Following which, Gary pulled out from the curb and started driving towards the city.<</narr>>

</h1><<narr "Downtown">>The moment we entered downtown, we seemed to have gotten stuck in a never-ending traffic. Cars were honking on all sides, people jaywalking from one side of the road to the other.
Guess Verith wasn't too different from New York after all.
<</narr>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>Gary... tell me about this city.<</say>><<say "Gary""Resources/Images/gary.png""right">>Verith? Same as anywhere. It runs on money. Doesn't matter if it's clean or dirty, long as it moves.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>...and the mob?<</say>><<say "Gary""Resources/Images/gary.png""right">>Heh. That's the real engine of this place. Verith's split down the middle - north run by the Bellandi family, the south run by Mancini family. Old money, old blood.<</say>>
<<narr>>Gary pauses before continuing again. <</narr>><<say "Gary""Resources/Images/gary.png""right">> Every street, every bar, every corner store answers to one side or the other. Cops, judges, politicians, everyone's on their payroll. Truth is, nobody moves a dime in this city without one of those families takin' a cut.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>Huh. who knew.<</say>><<say "Gary""Resources/Images/gary.png""right">>Now you do kid. Word to the wise, this city will chew you up if you don't watch yourself.<</say>>
<<narr>>An hour later, we finally got out of downtown. Gary pulled into the small driveway of a modest single-family house, which was really nothing like the city that I just saw.<</narr>>

<</narr>><<say "Gary""Resources/Images/gary.png""right">>Alright, kid. This is it.

<<narr>>Gary already looked visibly annoyed.<</narr>><<say "Gary""Resources/Images/gary.png""right">>Claudia... just go back inside the bedroom.<</say>>

By morning, light entered the room through the little window, waking me up.
<img src="Resources/Images/alarmclock.jpg" alt="morning" class="scene-image">
I got out of bed and decided to head upstairs.
I opened the first door in the hall without thinking and realized I was in the bathroom. Behind the fogged glass, Claudia was in the shower. I froze, caught completely off guard.<</narr>>
<img src="Resources/Images/claudiashower.jpg" alt="Claudiabath" class="scene-image">

As I walked down the hall, I could hear my stomach rumble loudly so I decided to grab something from the kitchen.<</narr>>

</h1><<narr "Basement">>After finishing my breakfast I returned back to what was now my bedroom, and finally took a moment for myself as I sat down on the bed.
So much had gone down in so little time. Dad dying out in front of me. The funeral. My uncle brushing me off like I wasn't from the same blood as him. Being sent here to Verith like a kid who couldn't handle the New York life.
I hadn't even had a second to process it. Who pulled that trigger? Who wanted him gone bad enough to do it at my graduation? And why did my uncle look like he'd already decided what came after?<</narr>>
<<narr>>Hours went by. But I stayed on the mattress, lost in my own thoughts until they were interrupted by the knock on the door.
Selena pushed it open a little and looked at me. She was all dressed up now with her hair done, looking ready to head out.<</narr>>

The bass was shaking the floor with the heat from too many bodies packed in one spot. Selena cut through the crowd like she owned it, and I was right behind her.
Selena slowed near the kitchen, leaned down to whisper quick in a girl's ear.

<<narr>>That's when I froze. Cartel in Verith, when every family swears they'd never let it happen. No outside hands, that was always the rule.<</narr>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>Bullshit... the cartels won't touch Verith.

<<narr>>The dealer hesitates.<</narr>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>And after that... by Friday, how much can you move?<</say>><<say "Unknown Man""Resources/Images/rico.png""right">>...Fifty grams. Maybe more if the road stays quiet. That's my authorized limit.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>Fifty's a start. But you're selling to me, no one else.

Friday came slowly but it came nonetheless. And by the time the sun went down, I was already up and dressed up. I knew what had to be done, and it was time to get down to business.<</narr>>

</h1><<narr "Benny's Pawn Shop">>I woke up late the next day, still exhausted from yesterday, I decided to quickly get ready and head to Benny's to get my dad's watch back.
It took me about 15 minutes to reach Market Street, but the moment I reached the pawn shop, I pushed the door open and stepped inside.<</narr>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>Back already? Must be love.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>Where’s the watch?<</say>>
<<narr>>Benny hesitated and started fiddling with his hair.<</narr>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>Yeah… about that. I moved it this morning. Guy paid cash. Sorry, man.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>You told me Monday.<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>Yeah, well… Monday didn’t pay me up front. This other guy did. And I like money that’s in my hand, not promises.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>That was my father’s watch.<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>And now it’s somebody else’s father’s watch. That’s how pawn shops work, man. Things come, things go.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>You think this is just a pawn shop?<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>What else would it be? I got lamps, guitars, and six busted Xboxes. That’s the dream.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>Don’t play stupid with me. You sell weed out of here too.<</say>>
<<narr>>Benny froze.<</narr>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>Yo, keep your voice down. That’s— that’s just a side hustle. Nothing big.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>How much did you make last month?<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>Why are you asking -<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>How. Much.<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>Twenty five.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>Twenty-five racks, moving out the back of a pawn shop. That’s heavy.<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>Don’t say it like that, man. You make it sound like I’m El Chapo. It’s just weed.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>Doesn’t matter if it’s weed or gold bars. You’re moving weight in a place that’s supposed to sell lamps and guitars. One wrong word and you’re finished.<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>What are you saying?<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>I’m saying from now on, you’re under protection. My protection.<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>Protection from who? You?<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>From everybody.

I make sure none of that touches you.<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>And what, you just do that outta charity?<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>Twenty percent. Every month.<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>Twenty?! You’re outta your mind.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>That’s five grand out of twenty-five. Don’t play like you can’t afford it.<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>Bro, you don’t just walk into my shop and make up rules.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>I just did.<</say>>
<<narr>>Benny clenched his jaw.<</narr>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>And if I say no?<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>Then I walk out that door and next week somebody else knows what you’re hiding in here. Somebody who doesn’t ask for twenty percent. They take everything.<</say>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>…You’re a real bastard.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>That’s why I’ll keep you safe.<</say>>
<<narr>>I pulled his register open myself, counted five grand, and slipped it into my jacket.<</narr>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>First payment. You got till the first of every month from now on. Don’t make me chase it.<</say>>
<<narr>>Benny slumped his shoulders.<</narr>><<say "Benny""Resources/Images/benny.png""right">>Man… I knew letting you in was bad luck.<</say>><<say "You""Resources/Images/your_facecard2.png""right">>No. It’s the best luck you’ll ever have.<</say>>
