24 year old Benedict " Beau" Ellington is an artist in a rut and feeling uninspired ,he heads out to a club with some friends and meets 22 year old , Melody Knox, a dancer wanting to escape her abusive relationship. Will she be his muse?
So the past two years have been rough for me. I got back together with Robyn and this relationship is gonna blow up any day . I still go to work at this point , I'm just making art to put food on the table and take care of Ny'Elli. I haven't spoken to Melody since the day she left, but I did see that she graduated some time ago. Raven and Sugar went to her graduation.
I got up and saw Robyn getting Ellie dressed.
Ny'Elli - hi daddy
Beau - good morning Ellie
Robyn - Beau
I looked at Robyn.
Robyn - can you go get us lunch?
I got back together with her a little bit after Melody left. We weren't even together for real until she told me she was pregnant and I automatically knew it was mine so I stayed. She miscarried a few weeks later and I would've felt bad if I left her when she was going through that so I stayed. She been trying to get pregnant again but I ain't doing that again. She was insane while she was pregnant,
............................................ I decided to take Robyn and Ellie out for lunch and on the way back home Ellie saw this bakery and wanted to try it. It's called Rose's Garden.
I went in , holding Ny'Elli's hand.
Ny'Elli - it's so pretty in here.

Robyn and Ellie went to a table while I went to the counter to order.
Melody came up to the counter.
Mel - Beau?
Beau - hey gorgeous
She is just as beautiful as ever.
She smiled.
Mel - how have you been?
Beau - I'm good. How are you?
Mel - pretty good actually. I own this place and business is good.
Ny'Elli and Robyn walked over.
Ny'Elli - Melody. You look so pretty. Doesn't she daddy?
Beau - yeah.
Robyn stepped on my foot. I glared at her.
Mel - so are y'all just hanging out today?
Robyn - we're actually together.
She couldn't wait to say that.
Mel looked at me in shock. I know, it's a shock to me too.
Mel - oh well- I mean that's good. I'm glad y'all worked everything out.
