Long Way Down — I Was Assigned

I WAS ASSIGNED

my Dark Deed for initiation,

Frick explained.

And it was to kill Buck?

No,

he said.

Funny thing is,

I was just supposed to rob him.

I didn’t think it was a funny thing at all.

Everybody knew

Buck was always flossin’,

always flashy. But nobody

would touch him because of his pops. Both of them.

Real and step.
