Chapter 27 - Decoy

Being on the bad side of town had led me to come up with two simple rules; always stay under the radar and focus on the necessities first and always, the luxuries will eventually come to you. They might not seem too much but these golden words had helped me survive being an on-the-run ten-year-old in Miami, Florida. It was about 6 months of eating from trash cans and sleeping in abandoned buildings before CPS picked me up. My case was a particularly simple one and I was soon living in a foster home with a super nice couple, the most amazing men in my life who I now call Dads, almost 6 years later.
