AMBITION

Liyah POV

Today was a new day at school. As I walked into the building, I met up with the other girls. As we were walking I noticed lots of whispers and murmurs from students around us, some people were gasping and smiling and just being strange. We ignored it all and departed to our classes.

Haven POV

"percocet" "aye" "molly percocet"

People in my first block could not stop singing it, eventually I joined in too and found that it got stuck in my head.

"Aye Haven, oooooooooh" Caleb imitated from behind me as I was heading to the next class.

"Wait.. oooh? Hol' up... where's that from? That's not apart of the song." I questioned confused.

"Ma, you messin' wit me right. You have to already know that you an' ya girls went viral last night."

"Nah, Caleb, I think you're mistaken. We ain't post nothing last night." I said trying to remember what had happened. I thought all we did was make a friendly video with those 2 guys in the mall.

He smacked his lips and pulled out his phone.

"Ooooooooooh...." our video played in front of my open eyes. "10k?! How the fu--" I stopped myself.

"Oh, damn I didn't even know that was posted." I said with a slight smile, as I went on with my day.

Mariah POV

After school Liyah took us all to her place. We had never been to there besides Tia, and we were pretty hype to see how it was.

When we walked inside we saw a huge balcony revealing the beautiful city of Atlanta from afar. The interior was honestly beautiful, (as shown in image below) and it was just huge, with 2 stories.

We all chatted about school, our goals and stuff, and then went on to binge watch a bunch of movies. It was the weekend after all.

-

"Ooh, Y'all, how'd I even forget?!" I smacked my hand against my forehead. "What in the hell happened today?" I asked as I headed to Liyah's kitchen for some more Takis.

"Huh?" Liyah responded.

"Lemme guess," Sage said, "oooooooohhhh" making sure to crack her voice.

As I re-approached the living room we all busted out into laughter.

"Ion even know, like Caleb showed me the video posted on Instagram and it was viral. How did it go viral without any of us noticing?" Haven asked us.

We all just stared back at her and shrugged as I pulled out my phone.

"Damn all of these tags from school people." I said shocked. "Wait, y'all those guys were kinda sorta instafamous."

"wai- whaa, lemme see." Tia said as she got up and stood behind my shoulder to see the video. "Whatttt." she said.

"and these comments too li- 'whoaa i ain't kno they can sang' 'shit they sexy as hell' 'all y'all boutta get some dms tonight' like what?" I said giggling as I continued reading the comments.

"I honestly didn't even know we could harmonize that well together until yesterday." Sage said as we all chuckled to ourselves.

"I HAVE AN IDEA." I proclaimed. "A GROUP!"

"Girl don't make this any cornier than it already is." Liyah said turning up the volume to the movie.

"Nah fo'real. Riah's onto something." Sage said. Tia and Haven nodded their heads in my direction.

"Are you guys seriously considering that? Ain't nobody got time for that. You know how we feel about our educations right now." Liyah said turning her head from the tv screen to face our direction in full concern.

"Liyah, out of all of us, you care about school the least." Tia said as we agreed. "But thats besides the point," she continued, "maybe a group wouldn't be such a bad idea.. we won't know until we try it."

"Yeah, Liyah give it a try." Haven persuaded.

"But what about a manager and all'at stuff, you all know we can't afford the stuff we need to be successful." Liyah whined.

"Who said we need to buy fame? We can earn it. We can start by creating gigs in our area, I think we'll be okay." Sage said.

"Plus, summer's right around the corner, which means we have more time to do all of this." I said.

"Okay." Liyah said as she finally turned her head back to the tv screen.

We all sighed in relief as we also went back to enjoy the movie.
