Chapter Eleven

London

London had been back in school for just a few days when she and Fatima decided to go ahead and really start the organization they’d been discussing for months and months. After plenty of late-night talks they each found out they’d both had drug addicts in their families or, in London’s case, Amber. They both came to realize that drugs were tearing down neighborhoods and tearing families apart. They stayed up long nights after studying, coming up with a lot of key points that they wanted to cover in their meetings.

“I think we should make sure to focus on kids who don’t get the food they need because their parents are on crack.”

London was writing down both her and Fatima’s ideas.

“Girl, I think we should try to shine the light on all the crime that senior citizens are subjected to by addicts trying to get money to cop.” Fatima was on a roll with things to add on also.

London started to think about her friend Amber and came up with the last thing to put on the list. “Why don’t we try to make the main focus on the youth, like kids in between nine and nineteen? If we can try to catch them, maybe we can make a difference. Tell them about another way to make it out the hood. Look how many of us are up here in school and can’t look out or protect our little brothers and sisters from the dope man.”

Fatima looked at London like she had just invented apple pie. “That’s it! For real, for real. I think we just found our hook.” Both girls were hyped up but decided to get some rest and get ready for a busy day.

Morning came quick enough, and the girls hurried to get dressed. “You ready, Fatima?”

“Yeah, almost, give me ten more minutes.” London heard her say that and immediately thought about Kenya. She was always good for telling Gran that same line almost each and every morning.

Fatima grabbed her dorm room keys and the two were off. After a short walk across the campus, they cut across the football field, finally ending up at their destination. The girls made it to the school’s media outlook building in what had to be record time. They were going to print out fliers to post all over the campus. London hoped that at least they would get ten or eleven people to show up at the group meeting that would be held on the weekend.
