To say the loss of an almost human being has not effected my life would be a lie.
I never talked to Gail again since that dismal day, Just days before I had lost my sister to a senseless murder in the South Bronx. She was shot in the head while leaving a Christmas party.

It is a crisp cool Monday morning when I board the D train to Manhattan to begin my Morning Commute. It is another wet and cold winter day underground in the Bronx. The cold wind has found its way through 6the subway grates and onto the Fordham Road subway platform.
