Fred walked up, and he was coming at me his eyes were red. He looked angry. I suddenly got nervous. 

“Free!” he shouted his heavy African accent overpowering his words. 

My eyes widened why was he calling me like this. 

Fred ran up, Petro, and Big Earl, instantly stood in front of me, blocking his path. 

“Whoa  home boy, fuck you running up for?” Big Earl said mugging Fred. 

“I need to talk to Free” Fred said standing up straight. 

“What you need wit her? What you got some beef?” Big Earl said. 

“I just need to speak with Free” Fred said getting upset. 

I wasn’t sure if I should talk with him or just what? I don’t even understand what he could want from me. 

“What’s up Fred?” I said. 

“Could I talk with you? I didn’t come to harm you, I just need a word with you Free, that’s all I swear” Fred said. 

I looked at him, his eyes were honest.  

“Yo, ya’ll raise up. I got this” I said. 

Petro, and Big Earl both looked at me. 

“You sho’?”  Petro said. 

“Yeah I’m just gonna step over here. I ain’t going far, and I won’t be long” I said. 

“Alright” they said slowly moving. I got down from the green box. 

I stepped away from the crowd a bit. 

“What’s going on Fred?” I said. 

“Have you seen Corin?” Fred said intensely serious. 

“Nah man, I ain’t seen him nor Raymond, nor Jay” I said. 

“You haven’t seen Corin anywhere” Fred said. 

“Yeah I’m sure man. Why what’s up? What’s going on?” I said. 

“It’s just Corin been acting real distant lately. I don’t know what’s wrong with him. 

“I think he’s in trouble, big trouble” Fred said. 

“Yo man I ain’t seen them. Anything else you need?” I asked. 

“What are you doing with those guys?” Fred asked.
