Tyrone's Legacy

Chapter 2: Naomi

After his training, he went home and got in bed to rest for tomorrow but he couldn't sleep because his neighbor was practicing her beatboxing skills. So he got up and went downstairs as he banged on her door trying to get her attention but the music was too loud for her to even hear him so he kicked the door. As she opened the door with the beat still in the background, she asked,
"Yea what is it?" Naomi was a Black-Asian mix.  She had long braids down to her waist and stood 5'4 and was pretty fit. "Yeah I just moved into the apartment right above you and I gotta get up early tomorrow so I won't be late for training tomorrow morning at the gym." Naomi looked at him. "Oh, so you want to get some sleep so you can get up and lift your weights, oh ok I'll turn it down champ you won't hear a thing." She shut the door back and continued playing her beats loud. Tyrone went back upstairs and shut his door and fell asleep. The next day he went down to the gym and started training. His weight was off. He needed to lose 5 pounds to compete in the light heavyweight division. He weighed 180. He needed 175 pounds. He lost the first 3 pounds in 3 days and when Wednesday came around he was 175 pounds. After his training, he ran back home and as he ran past a place his neighbor was performing at and paused for a second then went inside as he heard a beautiful voice up on the stage. Tyrone turned and looked trying to find out who it was. "Coming to the stage for us tonight. Philly give it up for your girl Honey Velvet!!" he heard the announcer shout to the crowd. Ty saw his neighbor walk up on stage as she grabbed the mic and started singing in the mic. Ty was astonished at her singing. Tyrone never knew she could sing. He decided to stay and listened to her performance until the gig was over. Naomi saw Ty sitting at the bar and walked over towards him. "Hey Gym man. How'd you sleep last night?" She asked as she got a drink from the bar. " Was that you up there singing just now?" He asked and paid for her drink. "No, that was the crowd... Mr. Gym Guy. Who are you? First, you come banging on my door late at night asking me to turn my music down. Now you are asking if it was me singing, and now you're paying for my drink and stuff I don't know you." She continued going off on him "It's Tyrone. My name is Tyrone. What's yours?" He asked her, laughing at her going off on him. "Honey Velvet but you can call me Naomi." They continued talking and laughing with each until the place had closed for the day and the two went to their apartment and slept until the next morning.
