Balanced by Reality

Chapter 1

Brooklyn POV

"Smoothie? Check. Purse ? Check. Make up on point ? Absolutely! Hair ? Styled to perfection , Hmm ok I'm out the door then." I say as I'm getting ready to leave then I remembered that I didn't have my keys so I hurried back to grab them then made my way to my brand new car I got my self as a present. It's a 2020 Porsche Cayenne. I've always dreamed of owning a Porsche one day.

Let me introduce myself . The name is Brooklyn. Brooklyn Marley Andrews. Born on December 2nd to two successful pediatricians named Dr.Robert and Tameka Andrews. Sister of 2. My older sister is Cheyanne Noelle Andrews but people know her best from a ratchet reality show called Baby Mama's club , a show about women who get knocked up by NO good rappers, ball players , producers etc. And my Youngest sister is Reign London Andrews. She's an upcoming hairstylist in the area. She's a good girl almost angel like and she's always been like that since we were young. Our parents raised us as best as they could with education being number 1. So it was imperative to them that their children attended an HBCU. Cheyanne went to FAMU, Reign went to Howard (our parents alma mater) and I went to Southern University with my best friend of 20 years Kaiya.

"As I'm on my way to work , I get a notification from my car letting me know that I have an incoming call from Kaiya. "

Kaiya is literally my soul mate friendship wise. She's a fiery chick with a lot of attitude but somehow sweet at the same time. We've been through so much together and she never folded on me once. I would do anything for her.

"Hey girl what's going on" I said

"Girl you not gonna believe what Omari got me" Kaiya said screaming so loud into the phone that I had to turn my volume down some.

"Ooohh What did he get girl" I said now sounding interested

"Ok so he woke me up early this morning , covered my eyes , got in the car and drove for about 20 minutes then we stopped , he got me out the car then took the blind fold off and BITCH guess what it was" I'm guessing it's a house I thought while still listening to her

"IT WAS A HOUSE, but not just any house my dream house the one I sent you a picture of with the 7 bedrooms 9 bathrooms and the big backyard with the pool."

"That's great Kai I'm so happy for you" I expressed in a genuine voice. That's the least he could do with all the stuff he put her through last year. But that was the past , she forgave him and moved on.

"Yesss so we're definitely gonna have to go furniture shopping soon , I was thinking about having a house warming too, Ugh when are you gonna be free to do these things with me"

"Well you know my show is on 5 days a week and the show comes on at 12pm so I have to be in by 8am to go over everything for the day and get my hair and make up done , then the show last for an hour then-

" Brooklyn you know I already know your schedule plus today is Saturday and you don't work on the weekends so we can go tomorrow " Kaiya said in a matter of fact tone

"Ok fine , what time you gonna come me pick me up." I said giving in. Knowing Kaiya she's gonna go to one store , not see something she wants ,get an attitude and the day will be over quick.

"I'll be there around 10am , I know you're a morning person"

"Ok that's works then"

"Mmm where you going you sound like you in the car." Kaiya asked suspiciously

"Girl I have to make an appearance at this BET event downtown at the convention center. Once I finish I'll be going straight back home I need some rest"
