Next Day
Mayora Ally Oniya

KD by Dave East, played in the background as I posed for my shot.

"Ok, we need a little bit more May." Yona yelled out.

I changed my pose and expression.

"Much better." She nodded. "I got a special person coming to see you real soon. You still interested in trying a video shoot?"

I stepped off the platform and walked over to her.

"Yea, like for a singer or rapper?"

"Mhm. I told him you just wanted to try it out, he said he'll reach out to me when he getting ready to shoot his music video."

"Who is it Yona?" I smiled.

"It's a surprise. Trust me you'll love who it is."

"Just tell me please." I laughed.

"Girl bye. Go back to the camera."

I sighed before going back in front of the camera.

"Ok! That's a wrap for today!" Everyone clapped.

I smiled while removing the clothing and putting on my sweats and jacket.

My phone buzzed in my purse, so I grabbed it.

Cierra 👯‍♀️
Club tonight? I'm tryna get crunk, my hands hurt from doing heads all day 😩

Me
I'm down 🍸🍻

I locked my phone and walked over to Yona.

"I'm about to head out."

"Ok, I'll see you tomorrow downtown. Don't forget, one o'clock."

"I won't. I need an assistant like low key."

"Girl you are fine, you don't need to rely on nobody." She waved me off.

"I guess." I rolled my eyes. "See you tomorrow."

"Byeee." I walked out the studio and to my car.

I unlocked my car before hopping in. I decided to get gas now instead of tonight. I got out, going inside to pay.

"Ooooo look at that fine jawn right there."

I rolled my eyes. What's a philly nigga doing in North Carolina.

I gave the Arabic man my money and told him what station I was parked at.

I walked outside feeling someone following me. I walked to my car, and started pumping gas into my car.

"Yo ma, what's ya name?" I looked at this dusty nigga that was just a couple feet away from me.

"It's mind ya business and walk away."

"Damn I just can't know your name?"

I rolled my eyes.

"It's May."

I said keeping it simple. I don't go out here sharing my name to randoms.

"That's beautiful, I'm Shawn. Can I take you out?" I looked him up and down.

He licked his lips while eyeing my body. I was wearing some sweats that wrapped around my skinny waist, which made my gripable butt poke out, and a jacket that was not tight but just right.

Him on the other hand was wearing some busted Air Force ones, with a oversized Nike jumpsuit. Oohhh and don't get me started on his nappy ass hair. It looked like he hadn't combed it in weeks.
