For the longest time, I was Bren Monroe.

I lived in Roussou, California.

I had no parents, no brother, but I had a crew.

Then things started to change.

I never planned for any of it.

I didn't think I'd fall in love.

I didn't think I'd have a relationship with my brother again.

I didn't think that he'd come back.

Now I'm in Cain.

My crew is in college.

They're growing, going through their own things.

And here I am, figuring out my life.

There's always hurdles and obstacles to overcome.

That was never my hardship.

That was my regular.

But living? Being content? Being happy?

Those were my challenges now.

Everything was going well…

Until it wasn't. Again.
