track # 3 : Supermodel - SZA
"Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition. The immature mind often mistakes one for the other."

AMERICA SAT ON ACE's king sized bed, stacking a pile of money from left to right in a pristine order that, possibly, only she would understand. Licking her thumb, she grabbed another stack of money from her black designer bag and ripped away the purple rubber band that was holding all of it together. She sized up the pile with her eyes before she finally began to count the bills up.
Ace busted through the door, quickly gathering her attention. Regardless of where her focus was, she could smell the value of the dead presidents that passed by her fingers as she continued flicking through the green. Ace's eyes connected with her's. As a result, she jerked her chin at him to greet him silently.
He'd been gone for quite some time. She had no words. She already knew exactly where he was and what he was doing while he was absent. Cassie visited for the day and was most likely on her way out after getting her fair share of time with her precious Ace.
With all of the years that went by and America's new surface of age, her playful twenty year old instincts, though quite mature when she wanted to be, had wished achingly for Cassie to up and vanish from Ace's life. Of course, her wishes never came true, and she was left hopeless, wondering if Ace and Cassie were just two sick people that were meant to be.
