She's one of a kind while they're two of a kind. How will she overcome her nightmares and chase her dreams?
There's a Spotify playlist made for those who want to hear the music in the book. Two of a Kind.

Sunshine greeted my eyes as soon as I woke up. There was a faint sound of a leaf blower coming from outside my window. I stretched my arms to the sky and yawned so hard that my jaw almost cramped.
"Ooou." A moan echoed through the walls.
"Yes, daddy. Right there, don't stop." A loud smack rings my ears and I feel sick to my stomach.
I know you fucking lying. I checked my phone and it was half past nine. Who fucks this early in the morning? Next thing I know, there's a constant thumping on the wall. I'm gonna be sick.
I go into my bathroom where I was far enough from the noise. I grabbed my AirPods and blasted my music. I would rather go deaf before I listen to straight people have sex.
I floss, brush my teeth, finish my self care routine and come back to pet my baby, Aries, who was knocked out through all the noise. Sleeping peacefully like he knows he lives rent free.
I whip out my phone and take a quick picture of him.

I go into the kitchen to prepare myself a small breakfast. Pancakes, eggs, biscuits, strawberries and turkey bacon.
I grab my plate of food and sit at the dining room table. I scroll on Instagram before I open YouTube to watch a mukbang with Tae and Lou, this lesbian couple I been following for a year. There was something about watching people eat good ass food that had me entertained. It provides a relief from my reality.
My roommate, Olivia, finally comes out of her room and goes to the fridge.
"Good morning. You're up early." She says, opening the fridge door.
"Good morning. It's because I'm hungry." I lied.
"Oh, I see." She pulls out the orange juice.
"Um ... sorry about this morning. I hope I didn't disturb you sleeping." She adds.
"Just play some music next time and we good. I think hearing it is a bit much, but.. yeah." She turned around, so she failed to notice my side eye.
"Okay. I'll do that." She grabbed two stacked cups from the cupboard, and fills the top one with ice.
The crunchiness of the crushed ice coming out the ice dispenser reminded me how crunchy I feel inside. I was talking all that knowing damn well I get loud too. I just learned to have the courtesy to play music to keep the noises down. She lucky I ain't bring nobody over here last night.
"New boyfriend?" I ask.
"No I just met him at a party last night." She answers.
