    She was constantly in conflict with herself over whether or not what she was doing to help this boy would be seen as inappropriate and wrong. Laura’s friends and family were also apprehensive at first when she informed them about Maurice and their weekly visits; they were all worried for her safety. This boy came from a family of drug dealers and criminals, they didn’t know if they should trust him spending so much time with Laura. Even though everyone was telling her differently, Laura had a gut feeling that what she was doing was right: “I had only known Maurice for a couple of months at that point, but I already knew he would be in my life for a long, long time. I just knew that in my heart” (Schroff and Tresniowski 97).

    There was a rap at the apartments entrance that made Dave jump. He rolled his eyes behind his dim shades and reminded himself of how much he hated visitors, especially when it was 11:40 in the evening. With a groan, Strider stood and trudged toward the doorway, twisted the handle, and yanked the door open. The last person he expected this sudden, spontaneous visitor to be, looked at him and quickly brought him into an embrace. Said hug was rather tight, which caused Dave to inhale deeply in fear he'd suffocate otherwise. "Yo, dude." He greeted nonchalantly and planned to oppress his joy for a while. If he expressed what he felt at that moment in time, he would have immediately started bawling and hugging back tightly; but he had to act as if he were upset with the other, or at least not as ecstatic that he was home. He was, after all the reason Dave had to take care of himself--why he was alone and worried all the time.…
