Private Project

A Familiar Face

Troy and his Family, The Davis's, moved to a new town. Troy started at a new school and was met with a surprise. Troy discovers another student in a higher grade favors him as a relative. Troy finally runs into the student, William, which leads to a physical altercation and lands both boys in the principal office. In the principal's office, the truths and secrets meet face to face as Troy's Father, John's past, meets his present. Through John's past mistakes, Troy learns the lesson of forgiveness.
