I left the house in a rush because Trey was too damn fine. And I couldn't. I borrowed my Aunt Trishas car and drove to my internship mentor. I mean Indulgence Courtier is the largest fashion house in the world. Well I'm super nervous about the mentoring.

At Indulgence Courtier
Stacy: Mam don't forget your meeting with Essence Norwood.
Zee: Yeah. I'm ready. Send her in.
Stacy: Okay is that all?
Yeah thanks. You can go.

I walk in and see this tall, dark skin woman and is hella curvaceous. That must be the President of the courtier.

Welcome to Indulgence Courtier. I'm Zinzi but call me Zee. The president and founder of the company and I'll be mentoring you myself.

Thank you. I'm Essence N N Norwood. And this is a huge honour. I love your work.

Okay calm down. I decided to coach you myself because I love YOUR WORK. but when I'm unavailable. Tosha, my second in command will take care of you.

It's been my dream to work here. I'm just so aahshhsh.

You are our priority and future of this company. And you are as important as anyone. Okay?

Okay!!!

Now let's start.

Before I sit..I see a picture of Trey with a child on Zees desk. I stare for too long and she busts me.

Oh. That's the love of my life And my little princess.

You have a beautiful family. I begin to worry inside about what happened earlier.
Lets get cracking.

*Downtown*
Lisa: Tia we have to buy clothing for the showcase.
Tia: we can do that later. What's kicking with you and ray?
Well we are fine but we fought... Again
Just chill. Every relationship has its rollercoasters.

I just can't he's too much nowwwwwww.
My conversation with Tia gets interrupted when two boys walk into restaurant.

What Lisa? What do you see? She turns around.

Look at that. It's too beautiful.

Yes it is. August can wait.

Quintin POV
It's been a while since me and essence spoke and Brent said I must text her to chill with us now.
Brent: whatchu want a slushy or milkshake?
Quintin: idk. I'm texting Essence.

Nigga look at those two ladies

Bruh I'm taken - period. Anyway I'll have a slushhhh....SHIT
Cashier: Milkshake or Slushy?

Dude what do you want. We ain't got all day.

I could hear Brent and the cashier at the back. But I saw the most beautiful woman I've ever laid my eyes on.

Quintin man. Wake up. Ha.see I told you they hot. But hey you got essence remember??
Yeah whatever ass.

Cashier: Negros I got all day!
Quintin: Two strawberry slushies to the table at the corner.
Cashier: Thanks. Next.

Lisa POV
Me and Ray as far as I'm concerned are nearly done. I think I'm ready to move on. With this young fella.
Tia: Lisa. They coming over
I know act normal and don't be awkward.

Hello ladies. I'm Quintin Miguel Neverson.
He stared right into my eyes. I felt so hot.

And this is my friend Brent Daniel.

Neverson? As in Trey Songz Neverson.?
My gowad. Trey has a relative that looks like this.

Brent: yes why?
Tia: Zee our friend is married to him.
Quintin.: yeah she's really cool.

He doesn't look away for a second. I felt so good and bad. It became awkward. I kicked Tia to save me but then again I want to know him properly.

Tia ; oh boys we have to go. We have shopping to do.
Brent: why the rush you can stay 10 minutes.
Quintin: it's okay we'll handle the bill.
Tia: thanks Quincy and Daniel. Bye
She drags me out the store. I felt so numb.
I felt alive again.

BRENT: your number atleast?
Quintin: we'll get them from Zee.
They leave.
Cashier: Your Slushies
Brent: runs back. Thanks.
Cashier ; hey baby?!!!!
Brent: oh hell nah
Runs out.
