Cosette Jinxter - Cosette's life started with a love story. You know, the one, a dashing Norwegian marine engineer sailing on a ship from the US to the Philippines, the sun on his back and the wind through his hair. Lieutenant Jinxter, young in years with the optimism of his youth only surpassed by his craving for adventure. The Philippines proved to be his greatest yet. Shore leave granted him time to sample the sights and sounds of the islands, and the beauty of the place only paled into insignificance against one another. Cosette’s mother. She was a young beautiful local woman, brought on at the islands to work in the brig and mess hall of the ship, preparing delicious local delicacies and hearty meals for the crew. Luckily for sir Jinxter, the feelings were mutual, and it wasn't long before they were swept away in Romance. They shared their lives, dreams, and themselves, and it wasn't long until the union created a product of that love,  Me. They travel across the oceans and seas, eventually marrying in the following years to have two children, one son and another daughter.

 

*current time* 

 

Cosette lifestyle choices meant that, unfortunately, she never really settled to form meaningful relationships that lasted, whether platonic or romantic (much to her parent's chagrin), and it was always something she felt she missed. She and her siblings had been close growing up together, and when they moved from country to country, they always had each other, but out on her own, it could get lonely. Her love of music and dancing meant she met many people but never truly friends, merely acquaintances.  She felt it was a growing need, ebbing and flowing further into her consciousness. With time the childlike need to explore was replaced with a need for grounding or foundations for a life she could build on. Where else but the land of dreams could that come true? Los Santos. The city fulfilled what she needed; the water on which she'd grown up was a stone's throw from any location in the city. Still, it also offered new opportunities to work, play, and, hopefully, find happiness. She could continue with her degree through distance learning online and build something new for herself, perhaps even invite her siblings out to join her when she did. Touch down at the airport, feet firmly on terra firma, she throws her backpack over her shoulder, lifts her chin, and pushes back her shoulders, ready to take on whatever the city can throw at her.

With her suitcases in tow, Cosette exited the airport. She turned to face the cars lined up to pick up their family and friends. People run to the nearest available taxi to head off wherever they need to be. She notices an unknown number flash on the screen.

 

She immediately recognizes the deep, cheerful voice on the other end of the phone. 

‘’Hello, uncle [Classified],’’ Cosette beams, hearing the familiar voice after so long.

‘’Hey, kiddo, how's it going? Was the flight here from Norway comfortable?’’[Classified] asks over the phone. Cosette responds with a brief "yup’’.

[Classified] then says, "Good. I'm in hand right now, love, and the table is full of fish, so I can't pick you up myself. I'll send a chap over to grab you shortly," Cosette frowns. She still remembers that uncle [Classified] enjoys the rush of playing poker. So one place you will find him is by a poker table.

 

“Oh, ok,” Cosette responds. "I'll chat with you once you're here; see you soon, kid." She quickly says goodbye before hanging up. After which she put her phone back in her pocket.

 

Not long after, Cosette hears shouting from a distance; she looks up seeing a red SUV driving in the pickup line of the airport parking lot. Seeing a guy with a gray undercut mohawk sticking his head out the passenger side window shouting ‘’COSETTE JINXTER!!! WE ARE LOOKING FOR A COSETTE JINXTER!!!’’ She is stunned as she watches what is happening.

 

At this time, she is relieved that the airport is a busy location for anybody to notice the guy's shouts. She rushes to the red SUV while the gray-mohawked man still calls out her name. When she gets to the front of the car, the mohawk guy stops yelling and turns to look at her while she looks back. Then, when he asks, "Are you Cosette Jinxter?" she nods, feeling a little shy about meeting this very outgoing man. He smiled, opened the door swiftly, and hurried up to her, taking her things and putting them in the car's trunk. As he does this, he says, "Finally! hop in".

While making her way towards the backseat, she notices a man with blond hair, numerous tattoos, and no shirt sitting on the driver's side of the car and looking through his phone.

Cosette sits behind the passenger side and glances up in the rearview mirror when she notices the blond-haired man staring at her. She says hi, and he responds in a deep, bored tone. The mohawk guy jumps in his seat, slamming the door and shaking the car; the blond-haired guy tells him to be careful with his car. The engine turned on, and we headed off to La-la’s.

Bright lights, bigger city

 

Driving out of the airport, Cosette learns the names of the two strangers sitting in front of her, the blond-haired guy Leon and the mohawk guy Grayson. They had a pleasant conversation getting to know each other a bit more. 

She learns that Leon has been working with [Classified] for a long time, and Grayson does some jobs for Leon, work they didn't seem comfortable sharing with her. Looking at them closely, Cosette starts to wonder what kind of job her uncle [Classified] does with these guys. Looking out, seeing the city lights flash by because of how fast we are going, Grayson and Leon whisper among themselves. Grayson then says out loud, “hey Leon, do you mind dropping me off at the impound” Leon just nods, and the mention of the impound grabs her attention “why the impound,” says Cosette. 

 

They both glanced at her through the rear mirror. 

Grayson says, “well, I got a new car and gave it a test run around the city, PD.” Silence fills the car. Cosette then says, “so you guys are criminals? You guys do bad stuff, huh” They both laugh at what she says “what makes you say that,” says Grayson while Leon is still focused on driving but now has a slight smile on his face, clearly finding what she said funny. 

She smiles, saying, “I don't know. I'm just getting that vide from you two, and if you are? that's cool” the two give her a smile seeing she's no threat to them or their work. 

 

We make it to the impound, and Grayson hops out, saying goodbye while walking to the gate. Cosette takes the chance to move seats, so she gets out and takes a seat on the passenger side. 

Leon glances at her as he drives away from the impound. He then says, “why did you move here from Norway and out of all places, Los Santos?” Cosette laughs, telling him a little about her upbringing, that she and her family mostly traveled. She moved here because it gave her parents peace of mind that they knew someone who lived in the same city. Leon tells her that her family must love her for them to be so worried about her moving. She looks at him and then replies, “yeah, but it was gonna happen sooner or later.” He nods to that. Cosette seems out of the window seeing all the tall buildings and lights.

 

They finally reach a place called Tequila-la. Leon parked the car near the front entrance, which was filled with vehicles. I'm surprised we even managed to get a spot. 

Leon and Cosette step out of the car. Leon puts his jacket on the back of his seat, and they both head in. When you first walk in, you’re met with a reception-looking area, then a pub with a stage and slot masks. 

Leon leads her to a door in the corner of the room to the right of the bar. Upon opening the door, it leads you to a set of stairs going to a basement; you can hear talking, glass clinking, and shouts from the door at the bottom. 

 

Entering the room, you find seats filled with people, and in the back, she spots the man that was supposed to pick her up from the airport earlier, her dear uncle [Classified]. Sitting with a glass of whiskey in hand and a pile of chips and dollars lying in front of him, you can tell he's been here for a while. 

Leon takes the empty seat to his left, [Classified] looks at Leon, then snaps his head to the entrance seeing Cosette standing there looking around the place. With a smile, he called her for a seat, giving Cosette some chips for a game. Poker is a game familiar to her. 

[Classified] then says, “Cosette, you finally made it. I hope the ride here with Leon and Grayson was good. Now meet some of my partners, Leon, Osman, and you know your cousin Jamie.” Cosette says hi to all the new faces.  

Connor then says, “They will be showing you how things are done in the city; I've put you in good hands,” giving her a soft smile. Hearing this, Cosette knew her time in the city would be eventful with this bunch around.

hooked on a feeling -blue swede-

Cosette has been in the city for two months now, and it sure has been one of the best two months since leaving Europe, from partying, attending events, and hanging out at the pier. She became even closer with those she now considered family and friends. Mare's acquaintances turned into business partners. Studies online for her nautical studies were promising.

Fishing and partying at the pier with a couple of groups, going to LSD racing events near sandy, and spending time with the family playing poker at la-la’s was lined up with dark red vehicles almost every day.

 

Everything was great, but something needed to be added. 

Cosette was missing the thrill of adventure she once had. Uncle [Classified] left her in the care of Grayson while he was away. They knew she was getting bored and was craving for something exciting and different to do. 

 

Cosette, at this point, already knows they are all criminals. But it was a surprise that they wanted to include her in hitting some stores. Without [Classified] knowing about it, she went right into it. Leon, Osman, Jamie, and Grayson showed and explained to her the ways they do things.

Let's say it's the best decision she has ever made.

I don't like Mondays -boomtown rats-

Grayson, Osman, Leon, and Jamie helped Cosette get everything she needed. Showed and explained how they do things; let's say it was the best decision she has ever made. Cosette is now at the clothing store picking out the right outfits at the clothing store near LS bank. Leon comes in after checking that all their equipment is ready and working. Grayson, who has been in the store with Cosette trying to help her, says, “Cosette, you will be scouting with me, yeah.” She replies, “yes. Is there anything specific I need to do?”. He answers, “not much, but we will tell you on the way there. Now try these on, and we'll head out”. She does just that, and they all leave the store to meet with the rest of the group. 

They all meet up at the front of Palomino, the targeted store today, Leon is gonna hold the gun, and Osman cuts the wires and joins Jamie in grabbing cash. Cosette is scouting the north side and Grayson the south. Coms are clear for scouts to announce any movement.

I'm currently hiding in a bush, looking out to the north, seeing for any vehicles. This road has only a few take-ups in or out of the city. I can feel my heart beating so fast to the point of feeling sick. Still, simultaneously, the adrenaline rush of possibly getting caught helps calm my nerves. I hear through my right ear, “clear,” Grayson says, indicating he's still on the other side and no one is passing. I do the same, seeing no one. After emptying the store, Cosette gets picked up by Grayson, and they all head off to clean the dirty money. 

Osman then says over the radio, “hey, Cosette, I think you should hold the gun next time.” Everyone else agrees with Cosette, then panics, “ but I've never held a gun before; I'm definitely going to mess this up.” 

Everyone else disagreed, coming up with reassuring words. Leon says, “we will practice; let's hit a store this coming Monday.” She slumps in her seat, looking out the window, thinking, “out of all days he could have picked, it had to be a Monday.” 

Grayson glances at her and starts singing, “I don't like Mondays; tell me why!!! I don't like Mondays....” Cosette laughs. She can't help but sing, ending the day with a karaoke carpool. 

Waking up to the song Positions by Ariana Grande can be heard throughout the bedroom. Cosette lifts her head from the number of pillows on her bed, glancing at the clock on her bedside table and squinting her eyes a bit to see better. She jumps out of bed, rushing to get ready. Today is the day she will be holding a gun. Cosette is already just as the song ends to start again. Looking at herself in the mirror, she takes a deep breath before leaving her apartment to meet up with the rest. 

She pulls up at the parking lot behind tequila-la with her Bf400, where everyone else had gathered for today's plans. Osman and Ashie were telling Grayson about their loss in poker after going all in on a bingo round. Cosette walks up to Leon, who is fiddling with something in the compartment of his bike. She takes out a gun to ensure safety before handing the weapon to me. He explains how it works and goes through the basics; once she gets the hang of it, everyone gets on their bikes they head to …….. Reaching the store, Grayson and Leon go to scout while the rest go in. After emptying the store and cleaning the dirty money, everyone heads home.

Leaving after midnight - hummingbird hotel

Walking through the apartment doors, she sees the boxes lying around the entryway. After further inspection, she noticed that they all had her name on them. This must be the last shipment of her belongings she asked her parents to send to her. Cosette starts unpacking, putting everything in place. While digging through the last of the boxes, she finds her mother’s Meiji, a small jewelry box she's always seen on the top of her parents' antique shelf back home. Cosette has been begging her mom to have it; now it's finally hers. 

Carefully opening all the drawers, she finds a necklace that once belonged to her grandmother and a small watch from her father. The final compartment was the biggest. Upon opening, she finds a bunch of paper and certificates; going through them carefully, she notices they are birth certificates and letters. Cosette is sitting there confused. 

On the birth certificate, it says that her mother had another son. She ripped open the envelope containing the letters from the child’s father. My mother had a son two years before meeting my father. She and the guy had split due to their differences. Upon reading further, I found out the child’s name was Michele, and he had moved with his father to Italy. 

It looks like they had exchanged letters a few times, speaking about Michele’s well-being, but the letters seemed to stop. They must have lost contact since we were always out traveling. Cosette was sitting in the middle of her room in the pile of evidence she had just discovered. Confused, shock, and sadness washed over her. She had an older brother. Does he know she even exists? After contemplating for a while, the first action she took was to contact her uncle, asking him for help locating her brother. 

She wants to meet him since family means a lot to her. With the help of [Classified], he managed to find him; it turned out he was living in Los Santos as well, and now the problem was seeing him. Los Santos was, after all, a big city. Cosette told the rest of her family living in the town about the news; they were all shocked, to say the least, after hearing about her having an older brother. 

Leon seemed to have gone mute after receiving the news, and he gave her a look as if they needed to talk. He takes her to the side and tells her he might know who I'm looking for. Cosette looks at him in shock. Leon had known her brother for how long? He said he and Michele could explain another time, but he will now contact him and arrange a meeting for her. She jumps in excitement and hugs Leon. Who would have thought it would be this easy? 

Leon drives her to the pier after stepping out of the vehicle. She right away notices a figure beside blue sand-king fishing. They walk up to him. Leon and Michele greet each other in Italian. At the same time, Cosette stands to the side, clutching a briefcase filled with the certificates and letters to her chest. Her heart is beating so fast. This is Michele, her brother. The men both look at her. Leon says something in Italian to Michele that makes him look at her. She steps forward and introduces herself.  

She sees him glance at Leon and then at her, then says, “so what's this meeting for” Cosette looks at Leon he nods at her to tell him. She looks at Michele and says, “I asked to see you, and I think it would be best for us to take a seat” they take a seat on a nearby bench. Cosette hands him the briefcase asking him to go through it. In the meantime, she tells him a little more about herself and how she found the papers. 

After going through everything, he takes a deep breath; not sure how he's feeling about all of this, Cosette gets nervous. He probably doesn't want anything to do with her; she just comes into his life and throws the news of her being his sister in his face. The great first impression, she thinks sarcastically, but to her surprise, he grabs her by the shoulders and gives her a tight hug. Cosette looks at Leon, sitting by the cars, and he smiles at her. She expected something else. She hugs him back and hears him whisper, “Piacere di conoscerti Cosette,” making a quick note in her head to ask him what that means later. They spent hours talking about their lives. Leon joined them and shared laughs and stories late into the night, feeling a sense of closeness they hadn't felt in years. 

Italian translation

Piacere di conoscerti > Nice to meet you

Boulevard of Broken Dreams -green day-

It has been a few months since Cosette met Michele, who goes by the name Mike. The group welcomed him with open arms and quickly hit it off. He became family. They would often hang out and play poker together. They also went on fun trips and outings, exploring the city and trying new things. Leon got Mike to join us in getting dirty cash from stores, and Mike taught us more about how cooking worked. A couple of stores were hit almost daily, most successful and others ending in a chase with the law. Cosette couldn't be happier, and the money was looking great. 

One warm summer afternoon, you can hear music, laughter, and cars driving by on the pier. Cosette is sunbathing on the beach, lying on the trunk of her deep red Dubsta, which she recently got for her birthday from her uncle. Cosette looks up towards the blue sky, thinking about everything that has happened til now, from her moving to the city, becoming a criminal, and finding her brother. Besides a couple of times, she had to spend in prison for speeding and getting caught in robberies, she had a pleasant time, and her family made it even better. 

 

A few days ago, Leon, Grayson, and Mike had prepared for a bank robbery; the rest were ready to take on any role or task given. Everyone agreed on hitting the bank on route 68 two days from now. The group was seeking something big, plans were being made, and dates were set. This bank was perfect. It gave them all a chance to see everyone's capabilities and what paths they could pursue in the future.

 

Day of the Bank

It was the big day; everyone joining had gathered behind tequila-la. After going through the plans again and ensuring Mike assigned the roles. They all head to route 68. Picking that bank was risky as it was near DOC and Sandy shores SD and MD’s office. For them, getting caught was a huge possibility, but they all trusted Mike and Leon. 

The scouts got ready, and the rest got to work, knocking out the two workers inside; Osman got on to drilling the vault while the rest got prepared to run in with their bags and grab as much cash as possible. Just as Osman was about to cut the last bolt, shouts over the radio could be heard on the radio to get out. Another gang was on a chase with PD, and they were on the road heading toward our direction. Osman stops drilling, and they rest and rush out to their BF400 parked at the front. Due to the rush, no one noticed one of the workers waking up, and they clicked the alarm. They only had seconds to ensure everyone was out of there as fast as possible. 

 

You could hear curse words over the radio; the chaos made Cosette nervous. That was the first time she had been scared of being caught. She reached her BF400, got on, then drove as fast as possible through the thick trees and up a small hill near the bank. She found a bush she hid in to change into a spare pair of clothing in the bike compartment. After getting back to the city and meeting up with the rest, who also managed to escape, they all agreed to lay it low for the time being and arrange this for another time. After playing a couple of rounds of poker at tequila-la through the night, they all head home.

A week has passed since that incident, and cops have kept an eye on a few of our members. Attention, none of us wanted. Cosette had just gotten back from getting her certificate of completing her nautical studies that now allowed her to sail as a safety officer on ships around the world. 

Placing her certificate down, she checks her phone. Osman had sent her a message asking if she wanted to join them in hitting some stores and that they were meeting up at their usual meet-up spot in 15min. She sent a message back saying she would be there. Arriving there, she sees Mike, Leon, Osman, Ashie, and Grayson. The first store was good other than Osman getting caught, but the 3 different stores that day went smoothly. They wanted to test their luck and hit a store near Mount chiliad. 

Eventually, the police caught up with them, and Cosette got arrested along with the rest of the family. In the end, Mike and Leon got deported, leaving no traces behind. 

She knew she needed to get away; her studies granted her an opportunity to work on the bridge on a cruise ship sailing the European coast. Knowing that leaving the city and being out on the open sea would be the perfect escape. Cosette found herself packing a bag and taking the earliest flight to Norway. 

 

Cosette gazes at the horizon, thinking about her family. Wishing she could go back to the fun days. She closed her eyes and imagined herself back in the city, surrounded by her loved ones. She felt a sense of loneliness wash over her. She forces a smile on her face, picking up her phone to text her friends and brother, letting them know how much she missed them with the hope that one day they will give her an answer-back and maybe once again return to Los Santos.

Breakeven

Cosette closes the door to her cabin, saying goodbye to her fellow crewmates before disembarking the ship. She is ready for her 3 weeks off rotation before returning. She sits in the back of a white Jaguar XF that is taking her to a hotel she's staying in for the night in Southampton before her flight back to Bergen. 

While arriving at the hotel, Cosette thanks the driver and heads to the reception to check-in. Once she enters her room, she leaves her bag and suitcase by the entrance. She throws her jacket on a nearby chair and kicks off her shoes before taking the hair tie that had kept her ponytail in place and allowing it to fall down her back. Heading straight towards the minibar, opening the wine cooler, and taking out a bottle of Banfi Rosa Regale Brachetto, opening it before filling up a glass. Walking towards the floor-to-ceiling windows in her room, looking at the sunset, she takes a sip from her glass. 

It has been a year since she last saw her family and left Los Santos. Cosette has not contacted Michele and Leon since they got deported. Grayson has been busy working together with her uncle while Osman went back to the UK, and as for Jamie, he joined a gang. She missed them very much, and after drinking up the bottle, she headed to bed.

The next day Cosette lands in Bergen. After dropping off her stuff at her apartment, she met up with an old friend. Walking through the doors of the cozy cafe in the city center, the scent of coffee and freshly baked goods is the first thing you will notice. Cosette takes a quick glance around the place, trying to spot someone. Sitting at the back is a girl with black and blue shoulder-length hair sitting with a sketchbook in hand, her hand moving gently. She is definitely creating her new masterpiece. 

Cosette walks up to the girl and taps on her shoulder. The girl stops what she is doing and turns to face Cosette. Seeing who it is, the girl jumps out of her seat and gives Cosette a tight hug; they both take a seat after ordering some refreshments. The girl's name was Lucine Moon. She and Cosette have known each other since their high school days. The two talked about everything, both aware of each other's situations. Lucine was out traveling, and this stop fit perfectly with Cosette’s schedule. After a few hours, they had finished their drinks, and it was almost time for the cafe to close for the day; they walked out, making sure to give each other a hug and to catch up again soon. 

Cosette, on her way home, walks through the park that's in the middle of the city, passing the gazebo and walking beside the pond, the street lights reflecting on the water creating a semi-romantic atmosphere. Since it was the middle of autumn, the temperature was getting chilly, so Cosette wrapped her coat tightly to keep the warmth; suddenly, the sound of a message ringtone could be heard, responding to the vibration from her pocket. Taking out her phone, she sees a message from Osman and her Uncle asking her to return to the city and saying it is urgent. Cosette is surprised to receive news from them. She replies, saying she will be there. Looking at the pond, she looks at her reflection; thoughts are running through her head, and it seems like she's returning to Los Santos.

New beginnings

Standing in front of the airport, Cosette looks around. She spots a black exemplar walking toward it, opening the door to the passenger seat, hopping in, and throwing her bag in the backseat. Turning to face the driver, Cosette says, “ what's up bitch, long time no see,” flashing a cheeky smile right after. Osman, who came to pick her up, says, “don't make me yeet you out of my car, cassette player.” making sure to drag out the word ‘player’ before laughing. “shut up,” she says, rolling her eyes shes glad to see a familiar face again. Osman starts driving off “anyways, all jokes aside, it's good to have you back, cath” “it's weird to be back; what's going on anyways?” Osman glances at her, then say, “We… will explain once you get to the apartment.” She wonders who he's referring to as WE before shrugging it off.

Stepping into the apartment, Cosette sees two people standing by the windows in the living room. Walking further in, she hears them talking. Recognizing the voices, running up to the two swinging her arms around them, and created a group hug between them. Jamie and Leon laugh, each one giving her a hug back after she lets them go. They're both back, Cosette thought. Jamie looked different. He had grown out his hair and now had a mustache, while Leon had his natural black/brown hair and a clean, shaved face. They had changed a lot. 

After taking a seat, Osman tells her that Mike and Grayson will return to the city soon. They just had to settle some things. Cosette couldn't believe what she was hearing; they were all coming back, and maybe this time, they could do what they had planned before leaving. 

The only problem was that things are different now compared to a year ago. Leon then says Conner, who had been out of the city as well, wanted us to learn how the city worked again, and they did exactly that.

The first thing they did together was hit some stores. It was easier this time than last, but it could have been more profitable. They visited all the hotspots; the pier was dead, and all the old gang hangouts were deserted or run by new gangs. They had heard about a job that was quite popular, so they went to check it out. Arriving at Los Santos Roadworks HQ, the application was easy, and surprisingly, they all got the job. On the other side of the office were trucks filled with workers, some relaxing and waiting for a new incident that needed fixing, others talking with one another. They all immediately got into a random truck, hitting it off with the workers. Within a few days, they got to know some people in the city and established new connections. Now the only thing left was to wait for the rest to arrive. 

The group is now at an incident, an airplane crash near DOC. While everyone was cleaning up the wreck, Cosette was texting someone in one of the trucks, sending her last message before she joined to help the rest. Hoping to see the person she was texting in the city soon.

Wonderland

It had been a week since Cosette returned to the city, and Halloween was just around the corner. She was getting ready at her apartment for a couple of parties, dressed as the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland. They had been to Muscle Peach yesterday at a party. Today she, Leon, and Osman are heading to a Halloween Maze at Grapeseed. She walks out of her apartment to meet up with them outside. Cosette puts on her gray blazer to keep warm and pulls out her phone from her pocket. She had been messaging her dear friend Lucine. Who will be arriving in the city soon this week, and they both will be looking for a place to move into. They finally made it to the event; there was a haunted house, a costume party, and a maze.  it was a really entertaining night. 

 

After the event, they went to roadworks since the guys wanted to make money or talk to people. They were now at an incident near burger shot; a boat had flipped on the side of the road. Putting on her bandana mask, she gets to work.

 

While Cosette was placing down a traffic cone, the guy beside her, his face covered by a mask, whispers, “What are you doing here?” in an amused tone. Cosette wondered what this random road worker was talking about and replied in a confused manner, “What?”. The masked guy fidgeted a bit, seeming unsure. He then says, “Do I know you” She replies, “Umm, no.” At this point, Cosette wants to move on to the next task as quickly as possible.

 

He asked her to remove her mask, which she did, thinking maybe he was someone from a year ago that recognized her somehow. He started fidgeting more, saying, “Sorry, I mistook you for someone else” Cosette just shrugged her shoulders, not bothered putting on her mask again, goes back to work.

 

All of a sudden, a car came speeding down the road. It crashed into a light pole to avoid one of the workers; the driver flew out through the window, landing in front of the car. You can hear a chorus of “oh shit” and “damn” being said between the workers. Those who were available ran to check on the driver, while others tried to call for help. After 15 minutes, there was still no response from any EMS or PD. Since no one had a medical license, there was very little we could do. The guy was slightly conscious, which was a good sign. One of the road workers gently patted him down, pulled a phone from the guy's pocket, and called someone, the first person on his emergency contacts. A few minutes later, a friend of the guy showed up and took him to the hospital. Leaving the car behind. 

 

Everyone went back to work once the guy left; now that things had calmed down, Cosette finally noticed the alarm coming from the car, and so did a few around her.

Walking up to the car, they tried opening the doors to see if they could get in and turn it off, but the doors were locked; climbing into the car from the window the guy came out of was too risky. So Cosette and the few roadworks stood around trying every trick they had, but sadly they were unsuccessful. 

 

It had been a couple of minutes, and Cosette was getting fed up with the sound of the horn. Cosette walked up to the car and tried to kick it; losing her balance, she managed to punch the guy she spoke to a while ago in the face.

They stand in shock; she frantically apologizes, asking if he's ok. In a thick Scottish accent, he says, “What thaaa??? Ouch!! What was that for?”. She kept apologizing, feeling bad about hitting him. He said it was ok but kept teasing her until they returned to roadworks. They ended up exchanging numbers and going on a ‘wee’ date.

SEASONS -Britton


 

Long time no chat, huh? Sorry for the hiatus—I've been riding some serious waves lately, both figuratively and literally. Speaking of waves, let me start off with a little pun: I've been surfing through life like a pro, but sometimes even the best surfers wipe out.

 

So, what have I been up to since we last caught up? Well, let me fill you in on the latest chapter of my adventures. Last year, I ended things with Scott, it just wanst my thing. A few weeks after that I decided to shake things up and joined the Rising Suns. Let me tell you, it was quite the experience. Met some incredible people, and made some unforgettable memories, but as always, change was on the horizon.

 

After a few months, I got a call from my brothers, Michele and Leon. They were knee-deep in the action with LF La Famiglia and wanted me on board. Couldn't say no to family, right? But, as fate would have it, my time with them was cut short. News broke about the big war with Vory v Zakone, and LF La Famiglia disbanded faster than you can say "ciao."

 

Taking a breather from the chaos, I went back to work. But my feet were itching for some new sand to tread upon. That's when Michele dropped me a message about joining GST Grove Street Thugs. When family calls, you answer. So, without a second thought, I dove right in.

 

The first week with GST was a whirlwind of activity. From snapping pictures to plastering posters, we were a force to be reckoned with. But as time passed, my enthusiasm waned. Life has a funny way of throwing curveballs, and soon my busy schedule and family matters left me feeling adrift.

 

It wasn't an easy decision, but I knew it was time to make a change. So, with a heavy heart, I bid farewell to GST and set sail for calmer waters. Now, I'm back at sea, eagerly awaiting the next chapter in my life.
