(Alive), Carlos sits across from Jerome in every class they have and Jerome notices that sometimes Carlos is very tired and he's skinny as well. He's very tired from that day and he thinks how he doesn't like having the thought of how he's going to keep himself safe. The bell finally rings. He runs out of the school and waits for his sister, and to his surprise Carlos comes up to him and says lets hang out. Jerome accepts his offer, Carlos pulls out a toy gun and asks if Jerome would like to play, Jerome says no but Carlos guilts him into doing it. Carlos hands Jerome the toy and asks him to give it back the next day. Jerome stays silent to the sound of his sister calling his name. His sister comes up to the two boys and sees the gun so she steps away. Jerome tells her that it's just a toy, Jerome says no to the offer. Carlos keeps pushing and wants him to take it, Jerome re thinks it and says that he wants the toy. He walks home and begs his sister not to tell, she puts her hand in his and that how he knows she will keep his secret.
