Zariah McKnight started in the entertainment business at a young age as an actress, now in her early 20's she realizes the entertainment business is not what she wants anymore. With all the money fame and parties all she really wants is a normal lif...
"Alright Miss.Zariah please take care of yourself." Doctor Jacoby smiled.
"I will, thank you for everything." I smiled back.
"No Problem.Everything is good she's good to go whenever you are." The doctor said to Tre.
"Thanks doc, you ready Z?" Tre asked, standing to his feet.
"Is that even a question? I been ready to get out of here." I chuckled trying to get out of the bed.
"Hold on girl." He chuckled, helping me out the bed.
"Thanks." I half smiled.
"Yep."
"Tre please take care of her, Zar I'll be calling you later and you better not ignore my calls either." Ma said as we all stepped onto the elevator.
The ride down was silent beside the elevator music playing softly.
I felt Tre hand on my lower back as he helped me out of the door. "Im good Tre I can walk." I softly smiled.
"Just making sure you good, im gonna pull the car up front." He said before running toward the car.
I watched as he jogged out toward the parking lot. "Zariah." Ma said grabbing me from my thoughts. "I don't know how I feel about this."
"Ma relax ill be fine, its not like im moving in with him its just a few days." I told her, grabbing my suitcase of clothes from her.
I watched as a beautiful black car pulled toward the curb. Tre stepped out of the car jogging toward the passenger side opening the door me.
Sitting in the passenger seat I smiled waving at my mother who looked mad as we pulled off. I chuckled to myself shaking my head. Mad ass
I inhaled and exhaled the ride was silent. No music or anything. I looked outside at the buildings and places we passed.
"Thank you." I randomly said, looking down at my un-manicured nails.
"For?" He asked, glancing over at me before looking back at the road.
" For opening your home to me and going out of the way for me.. I really do appreciate it." I smiled looking up at him.
"No problem, I mean thats what friends are for even tho yall did fire me." He chuckled glancing over at me.
"Yeah, uh sorry about that I had so much on my mind that day."
"Its straight." He said as silence filled the car again.
"I like your car, its nice."
"Thanks just got it yesterday before I came to visit you, its been a dream car of mine glad I finally got it. And the newest one at that." He said flashing his bright smile.
"Thats cool, can you keep up with the payments?" I asked.
He remained quiet for a few seconds before answering. "Yeah." He spoke giving me a questioning look.
"Im sorry, I didn't mean for it to come off like that? I mean like since your doing all of this for me. I could pay it off for you since your not working for me anymore least I could do."
"You weren't my only job. I have money, I know how to save."
"Oh okay, do people really name their cars?"
I watched as his face scrunched up "Not everybody but I do."
"What did you name your cars?"
"Well my uncle gave me the red car on one of my birthdays since it red I called him Redd. I put my heart and soul into that car. And this car I call her Black Panther I thought it goes."
"Thats cool, I wish I knew how to drive?" I sighed.
"Well maybe one of these days I can teach you."
"I would like that." I smiled.
He pulled into the garage unbuckling himself as I did the same. He grabbed my things from the back seat as I got out the car.
"This is a fair warning, before I left I told my brother to clean up. I hope he did if he didn't excuse me cause i will have to curse him out in front of you."
"It's okay." I laughed as he unlocked the door.
"Okay." He said opening the door for me.
My eyes scanned over the room, which was clean and smelled like Hawaiian Breeze. Beethoven played in the background.
"Chris!!" Tre yelled making me flinch.
"My bad." He chuckled.
I laughed out loud as Chris strolled in the room with a smoking jacket on. "Ahh big brother how pleasant it is to see you on this beautiful evening oh and you have a guest, good evening." Chris smiled.
I glanced up at Tre as he shrugged looking back at Chris."Why you talking like that whats wrong with you?" Tre asked as he took his shoes off.
"Something wrong with me? Oh Trevante you're so silly. There is nothing wrong with me." Chris smiled.
"Anyways Zariah." Tre said slowly looking from Chris toward me."Let me show you were you will be staying."
I follwed behind Tre down the hallway toward the closed door. He opened the door to a decent size bedroom with black walls and a large size picture of Aaliyah.

"Im a big fan." He said softly.
"Me too, she was beautiful."
"She was... Well I'll leave your things in on the bed you can relax I'll be in the other room if you need me."
"Okay, Thank you." I smiled as he nodded closing the door behind himself.
I tossed the bag onto the floor and layed across the bed. "Guess ill take a short nap." I yawed.
