Troy moves like he’s untouchable.
Older. Sharper. Studio-ready. Dealing girls with boyfriends and stepping into rooms he shouldn’t be in. He talks like a man. Walks like a man. Believes he is one.
But manhood built on risk, reputation and ego doesn’t last long on these streets.
After a secret hook-up with Selena - a girl already claimed by someone dangerous - Troy convinces himself he can handle it. That he’s in control. That fear is for little boys.
He’s wrong.
What starts as bravado spirals.
In a world where masculinity is performance and status is survival, Troy discovers the cost of trying to prove you’re a man before you understand what that even means.
