Sadé's POV:

— Monday, The 28th

Today was Monday, and it was like any other work day from the house. Marshall was off at the studio today as per usual so it was just me at home alone.

I was sat in my office called the babe cave, doing some important documentation and signing paperwork for my brand. There was a lot that needed to be approved by me and signed off since it was actually getting real now. I wasn't necessarily working on anything in particular because I couldn't. It was more like a waiting game until I have the photoshoots, which are a little bit of a while away. The sunglasses are already in the making, everything is legalized, I had already created and chose the designs for the launch, and the warehouse/headquarters is currently undergoing renovations. Plus, I had a huge workload lifted off of my shoulders now that I had employees actually working for me, doing background tasks. Everything was going great so far, and I was content with that.

Aside from that I had a few other important things that I needed to do today. One of them being that I needed to start booking up my schedule again. I had officially made the choice to come back to social media soon, and I was quite excited - Nervous, but excited. I was currently on the phone, discussing it in more detail via FaceTime.

"Alright so I'll schedule some promos from previous brands that you worked with before you took your break and some new ones as well. We'll throw in some award shows that are coming up, some charity events, collaborations, and a couple of photoshoots. We can get started as early as December or January if you want. That sound good to you?" Jordyn explained while taking notes, typing away on her computer from the suite back in Chicago.

"Sounds good to me! But you know me, it has to be big. I can't just come back with a video as if nothing happened. I want it to be dramatic, but still tame." I clarified, wanting to come back with a bang.

I didn't know how I wanted to do it or what exactly it was, but I knew I wanted it done.

"Define dramatic yet tame." She said in an amused tone, laughing at my antics.

"Ya' know, something cool. I'm not saying dramatic as in the party I threw, but I want it to be a special kind of video to tell everyone I'm back, and I'm here to stay. Something just showing people that I can't be fucked with. Because I am THAT girl at the end of the day." I enthused, feeling confident.

"Mhmm. Okay. We can see what we can do."

"Yes!" I squealed, happy to have gotten my way once again.

"I am proud of you though. I know it was hard on you after everything that happened. I'm glad you made progress. I remember how broken you were when it first happened and when you found everything out. Now look at you, ready to get back into it and move forward. I'm happy for you, sis." She said sincerely, making me smile.

"Thank you. I couldn't have done it without the help of you and Marshall, honestly." I thanked her quietly.

That was the truth. Those two really did get me through it all. Of course there was other people who helped me along the way, like Alabama and Hailie, but those two really did the most. Marshall for obvious reasons: Coming in and helping me get back on my feet, supporting me, motivating me, and really just giving me a shoulder to cry on. Then there was Jordyn who did a lot of the legal things like working with the police & lawyer, helping me take a break from social media and YouTube, making sure I was okay, calling me everyday to see if there was anything she could do, and more. I really was thankful for them one hundred and ten percent.

"Speaking of which, I'm ready to find a new apartment. Somewhere I can call my new home."

"You sure?" She hestitated.
