The sun was setting over Miami, casting a golden hue over the modern house that was Njeri's haven. The sound of gentle waves from the pool added to the serene atmosphere, a stark contrast to the city's bustling nightlife. Sitting by the pool, Njeri enjoyed the luxuries that her life afforded her, the kind that many could only dream of. But for her, this was reality.

"Waddup, Nj," Jace greeted, his voice breaking the tranquil silence as he strolled up to the pool area.

"I see pretty boy got back from his trip early," Zane remarked, a hint of amusement in his voice.

Njeri grinned. "I know, right? Now he's an international pretty boy, on the cover of Vogue's new magazine."

Jace struck a playful pose. "What can I say? I got the looks."

Amara, lounging on a chaise lounge, chimed in. "However, tonight this international playgirl is going to a party. If y'all wanna join me."

"Of course! Why wouldn't we?" Njeri replied enthusiastically.

"Maybe Zane can finally stop being a Debbie Downer," Elena suggested with a smirk.

"For real, bro, you are scaring the hoes," Jace added, shaking his head.

Zane rolled his eyes but couldn't suppress a grin. "This summer, the game is on."

"Since it's off the court," Jace teased, nudging Zane playfully.

"Leave my baby alone," Njeri interjected, patting Zane's shoulder. "He gon' be something one day."

"Anyways, it's selfie time. Pose!" Amara announced, pulling out her phone.

They all struck various poses, laughing and enjoying the moment. As they took selfies, capturing the carefree essence of their youth, the evening breeze carried the promise of a memorable night ahead.
