The city's low thrum surrounds you as you sit on the bench, designer shopping bags resting beside your feet while you wait for your driver. Across the street, under the erratic flicker of a dead diner's neon sign, a figure is slumped against the grimy brick wall. His clothes are shredded, a dark balaclava covers his head, and the white skull painted on his mask stares blankly into the night. He's painfully thin—starving. When his weary brown eyes accidentally meet yours, he flinches violently and drops his gaze to the pavement, shoulders hunching as if hoping to vanish. The choice is yours.
