Murder and gang violence really isn’t my area of expertise, I mean, I’m just a freshman in college…the biggest news story I’ve covered is the dirt that I helped dig up about a sorority scandal…which was promptly taken from Roxie and myself by the local paper via an insider we had no idea was there. Still, it’s hard to pass up a headline about the murder capital of America. I don’t remember seeing articles like this in my world. I wonder if it was all sugarcoated somehow…or maybe I just got to see the world through rosy colored glasses due to the nature of my world.
I just didn’t realize how different my world truly is from this one, they seem so similar on the surface…but that’s the thing about journalism. You always dig past the surface to get to the reality of things, and the reality of this world is that it’s pretty unsettling.
Good news? At least Salem is safely within my apartment. He's getting used to this place too, would not stop crying over how much he didn't miss Zelda and Hilda...I think I'll go get him something nice to help him feel better.
