Asia goes back to Jayla's house after she fell asleep at Zay's house.
"You spent the night?" , Jayla asked
"By accident", Asia added.
"Listen, the only reason why I 'accidentally' fall asleep at Mikey house is because we do what it do. So unless y'all did that then I see why"
Asia is silent.
"YALL DID!?", Jayla asked.
"Shhhhh"
"Oh my goodness"
"I- I got caught up in the moment", Asia said.
"Moment?", Jayla smirks. "Did he tell you he loves you?"
"What?"
"Girl I know he does. He told me, I told him to tell you", she said.
Asia sigh. "Yea but... I don't know if I love him. Since Nicole passed away... I feel so empty ya know"
Jayla sigh. "Yea... I know how you feel I miss her too.... did you tell Zay yet?"
"No. But I will", Asia said.

It's been a week since Asia has been at Jayla's. She haven't spoke to Zay since they had sex, and yesterday was Nicole's funeral which was the first time she spoke to Josh. Tomorrow is graduation.
"Baby, it's been a week now", Josh said on the phone. "I miss you, I miss your body laying next to be at night"
"Josh..I don't kn-"
Josh cuts her off. "A week means a week Asia"
Asia sighs.
"I promise I won't put my hands on you anymore. I swear", he said.
"Swear?", she asks.
"Yes", he said.
"... fine. But if you touch me again like that. I'm done", she said.
"I won't.. I regret that night since it happened", he said. "I'm coming to get you, I love you".
"..I love you too. okay, see you then",she said as hung up.
"Hey Asia"
Asia turns around to see Zay. "Hey"
"I know it's probably awkward to talk to me right now but I wanna say that um.. I'm going to accept Duke's offer", he said.
Asia hugs him excitedly, "oh my gosh that's great!".
Zay hugs her back with a smile.
Asia pulls away. "I'm proud of you Zay"
"Thank you", he replied. "But um there's something else I wanna talk to you about"
"What's up?", Asia asked.
"So me and you.. I was-"
Asia cuts him off. "Zay.. listen I'm sorry about that night okay? I don't know what came over me. I just.. you know ..we need to stay friends. I'm .. Um back with Josh"
"Yea it's okay.", Zay said lying. "I was just about to apologize too", lying again.
"Oh.. okay cool. It's iight", Asia said.
"But um.. I'll see you around", Zay said.
"Idk Duke player.. you gone be pretty busy", Asia said smiling.
Zay fakes smiles and goes in the house
Asia stops smiling, confused.
