Life used to be so beautiful...
so full of magic
and possibilities.
to tell all my friends.
inspire the world,
make it a better place somehow.
I was such a dreamer.
And for a while,
it seemed like all my dreams
were coming true.
Billy was my world,
the man of my dreams.
But how quickly dreams
can be shattered.
That killer didn't
just take Billy's life.
He took mine, too.
The only thing the police knew
was that the killer wore
a red hoodie
and left behind
a mechanic's rag.
They soon gave up their search,
What do you do
when you've lost your faith,
your hope, your will to go on?
I used to dream
of telling stories,
would end like this.
Oh, my God, no!
No, we doin' this.
So tell me, did you miss her?
I don't hear nothin'.
I know you as hungry as I am.
Out late for a school night.
Come here!
I know you're still there.
And I know you're listening.
I sure could use
some help right now.
watch over those kids.
Keisha!
She... She got hit!
Miss Crawford?
How is she?
She got banged up pretty good.
Gonna keep her overnight
just to be safe,
but she's gonna be fine.
Have you seen the family?
Someone should be here
any minute.
The police, they're downstairs
waiting for a statement,
but if you got just a second,
she wants to see you.
Hey.
She wanted to tell you
something.
No, no, no, don't wake her.
if she don't get to see you.
Coming tomorrow?
I don't know.
I think so.
How I know you're not playing?
"Samantha Crawford."
Sam.
You can call me Sam.
What's your name?
I'm Macon, and you
just made me a promise.
Well, I guess I did.
So she's okay.
She's gonna be fine.
She's all right.
You a relative, or...
I help look after her.
Miss Evans is
on her way up now.
What's your name, honey?
Joe. Joe Bradford.
Joe? Joe Bradford?
Yes.
It's Sam.
Samantha Thomas.
Sam?
Sam.
How have you been, girl?
I can't believe this.
What are you doing here?
What... Are you okay?
I'm fine. I...
This is the young lady
that brought
the children up here.
You have got to be kidding me,
of all the people.
Those kids yours?
Well, now, that's complicated.

This was my best friend
when we were kids.
Oh, come here, girl.
Yes, sir, she's right here.
What is it, 20 years?
Hold on.
Excuse me.
You have
a very impatient detective
waiting for you downstairs.
Okay. Okay.
You got a card
or something, Sam?
Here, I found one.
It's tattered there.
Okay.
She's headed your way.
You come see me.
We got a lot
of catching up to do.
It was good to see you, Joe.
You, too.
You come see me now.
I will.
Everyone!
This is Joe Bradford.
His grandmother
is the new janitor.
Let's all make him
feel welcome.
Run along and find a seat.
Gosh, look at that Afro.
Seat's taken.
What you got?
Got something to trade?
Do you like Jell-O?
Yeah.
How about my Jell-O
for your potato chips?
Okay.
And, uh, maybe we can
trade again tomorrow?
Okay, it's a deal.
Here she comes.
Aah!
Who tripped her?
She's your girlfriend.
Why don't you make her
tell you, coon?
I'm gonna tell you this once,
and I'm gonna talk real slow,
so you can understand me.
It'll be a cold day
in Jamaica for some...
Fight, fight, fight, fight!
Fight, fight, fight, fight!
Fight, fight, fight,
fight, fight!
See you at lunch tomorrow.
Yeah.
Don't forget my 'tater chips.
Sam.
Hey, Cricket.
How's my girl?
Strange day today, huh?
Hey, cowboy.
Hey, pretty lady.
You make it by the bank
for me today?
I sure did.
Good, 'cause I just ran out.
You are finally
gonna write that thing.
It should be your best ever.
All right.
So where they at?
Where's what at?
My $2.00 bills,
my Jeffersons.
I put them
in the coffee mug cabinet.
The coffee mug cabinet?
Now, why would you go
and put them
in the coffee mug cabinet, huh?
What's wrong with you?
Oh, you're gonna get it.
A chicken?
Ah!
Hello?
You broke your promise.
What?
And you owe me a quarter.
No, no, I'm still
coming up there.
Too late.
They sent us home.
Home?
Yeah. And you just made
a big, fat liar out of me,
'cause I told Keisha
you was coming to see her.
Looked her in the eye.
Macon, I am so sorry.
Oh.
So?
I guess
this is good-bye.
No, Macon, hold on a second.
I was just on my way to get
something special for Keisha.
Something special?
What you got, some candy?
Sure, what kind does she like?
Bring her some M&Ms.
I love... I mean,
she love them things.
And pizza. Bring her some
pizza, ham and mushrooms.
Okay.
What's your address?
Told you.
Now, how about that?
About time you showed up.
Well, it's nice
to see you, too.
Mind your manners.
Hey.
Yeah.
Hi, Keisha.
It's nice to meet you.
I'm Sam.
Keisha, you better get over
here if you want any of this.
Boy, you act like you ain't
never seen no candy before.
Name's Maddy.
It's a good thing what
you done for my babies.
Well, anybody would've done it.
Aw, no, they wouldn't.
Hey, Tee.
Got a light?
Mmm.
Can I go hang with Tee a while?
Leave that man alone, boy.
Can I, Tee?
Whatever.
Oh.
How far does that road go?
Mmm, four more streets
and a dead end.
Help you find something?
I passed by this address
on my way to see you.
I think it's my friend's house,
but I'm not sure.
Give it here.
Your friend Joe Bradford?
Yes, ma'am.
Well, you're in luck,
'cause that's where he live.
Welcome to the projects, honey.

stopping by.

Told me all about you.
Come on in.
Just make yourself at home.
I knew you'd come.
Hey.
I need your help
with something.
I bet I know
what you're thinking.
How in the world
did I end up here?
I'm just glad to see you, Joe.
Hold this.
I hope you got enough, man.
Thanks, Billy. Thanks.
