I laid on the King-sized bed in the Prince bedroom. Each of Sincere's guest bedrooms was a theme of someone he felt had changed the course of history in one way or the other. He idolized the singer Prince because of his style, charisma and determination to prove that he was a cut above the rest. The walls were painted purple, while the carpet was specially dyed purple shag. On the walls were glass encased portraits of the 35 Prince albums.

That included FOR YOU (1978), PRINCE (1979), 1999 (1982), PURPLE RAIN (1984), SING O' THE TIMES (1987), BATMAN (1989), GRAFFITI BRIDGE (1990), DIAMOND AND PEARLS (1991), THE GOLD EXPERIENCE (1995), EMANCIPATION (1996), THE RAINBOW CHILDREN (2001),...

A replica of Prince's guitar sat in a corner of the room, while a life-size wax statue of Prince himself seemingly guarded the room standing by the balcony doors.

I felt safer with the Prince wax figure than lying next to Sincere after he had hit me the evening before

I felt safer with the Prince wax figure than lying next to Sincere after he had hit me the evening before. I replayed the moment over and over in my mind, as I laid in the bed alone. Sincere tried to get me to come out several times, but I was determined to have my time alone to think. Aarik had told me about Sincere's mean streak many times, but up until the moment he slapped me, I had never encountered this other person that he turned into when he was angry.
