The Coming of Age

Steph never planned on following in his father's footsteps. Growing up in NYC, he knew what living life in the streets could do to a young kid. The fact that he was an orphan was living proof. Steph had a few golden rules he abided by: stay true to himself and his friends and to follow his plan. The plan was simple: graduate high school, attend college, and take care of his grandmother. However, as is often true, things don't always go according to plan.

As summer vacation looms closer, Steph's life begins to head toward a path that will change him forever. It will leave him with a critical choice to make.

Will he remain disciplined, focused, and committed to seeing his plan come to fruition? Or will he let the drama of jealous guys around the way, relationship pressure, and newfound uncertainty cloud his destiny?
