Nothing lasts forever, but I honestly thought this could. The peace we had experienced during the last week was everything we ever wanted. There was only one problem: we were running on a dangerous line, and we knew that everything could come crashing down on us at any second.

First and foremost, the opiate ring case was taking over my life, but not in the way I had first anticipated. As soon as I arrived for work that Monday morning, I noticed a considerable shift in tone from my partner, Derrick Fulton.

We were assigned other cases and urged to keep fighting for a bright future. Derrick insisted that I did everything I could do, that David and I were two heroes. Suddenly, that word didn’t feel as powerful, and I felt like I was cheating my community.

As I stood before the crowd of fellow officers, I felt like a pawn in a system forced into corruption by its leaders. I could barely look into the chief’s eyes as he awarded me the Medal of Honor for my sacrifice in the line of duty.

As the officers applauded, I looked into David’s eyes. He shook his head but whispered, “Someday, things will change.”

Then, I saw the back door of the auditorium open. My father walked in, proudly wearing his medals and decorations from his time as an NYPD officer.

Chief Flegenheimer pinned the decoration to my uniform. Both of us stared into each other’s eyes. Yes, the chief knew of my plans, and I knew he had ideas of his own.

I also knew better than to trust ceremonies like this. By the end of this month, the chief would oust from my position. I wasn’t sure how they’d justify it, but I knew they’d find a way. They always did.

As much as it broke my heart to see my department hiding something, it didn’t surprise me. The corruption in this city had been around since the beginning. I was the only one too stupid to want to speak up about it.

But I couldn’t stay silent. I had people that were depending on my honesty, and I wasn’t going to let them down.

“Officer Flanagan, you have put yourself at risk for your department. Without you and Officer David Frist’s extreme sacrifice, I’m afraid we wouldn’t have been able to close this case. Thank you for a job well done.”

I walked off the stage and made my way toward my father. He saluted me before giving me a brief hug. “You did well, officer.”

Most of the guys in the department could understand what I was going through. Policing wasn’t just a job for us. It was a legacy that our fathers wished for us to carry on.

The look of pride in my dad’s eyes wasn’t forced. It was more real than anything in the world. For our fathers, love came through our accomplishments.

That’s what broke my heart the most. I wasn’t ever going to cut it as a civilian. As a son. As a boyfriend or husband.
