Chicago is a dangerous place to grow up especially when you have nobody to lean on. Senior year is supposed to be easy breezy and filled with so much excitement. Not for this young group of friends, they will experience break ups, death, jail time, pregnancy, and so much more drama. When everything hits you at once the best feeling in the world is knowing you have somebody that has your back.
