Fews Later..........

Tiana: Umm yeah I like it that way. (Engineer nods) Maybe bring my vocals out a little bit more.

Hakeem: (walks in) Hey.

Tiana: Hey.

Hakeem: Can we have the room for a minute? (Looks at the engineer)

Tiana: Actually we were just finishing for the day. I'll see you tomorrow. (Engineer leaves) So what do you want to talk about?

Hakeem: I just got my new place and I wanted you to come check it out.

Tiana: Okay, me and Ava will be over around 7.

Hakeem: Okay.

Tiana: What is it? (Looking at him)

Hakeem: I also wanted to talk about us. (Licks his lips)

Tiana: Us? There is no us besides co-parenting.

Hakeem: Tiana (gco)

Tiana: Look we'll finish at your place.

Hakeem shakes his head and leaves. Tiana leaned back in the chair and took a deep breath. Memories started to flood her mind.

Flashback...........

Kenndy: Tiana lets go out.

Tiana: No. I just want to stay in the comfort of my house. (Curled up on the couch)

Kenndy: Just because Hakeem is marrying ole girl doesn't mean you sit around. He invited you to the wedding.

Tiana: (smacks lips) I wouldn't dare show up to Hakeem's wedding. And this isn't about Hakeem.

Kenndy: Mhmm if you say so. Well let's (gco)

Tiana: I don't understand why he would marry her! Like they haven't been together for a long time? I don't even know what he sees in her. And (gco)

Kenndy: I thought you weren't checking for Hakeem. (Sarcastic tone)

Tiana: Whatever. (Plays with fingers)

Kenndy: (scrolling on phone) Just be honey with yourself Tiana. You got it bad for Hakeem Lyon and you're possibly in love with him.

Tiana: (roll eyes) Ken I don't even think I'm in love. That's beyond me. I have better things to worry about besides Hakeem marrying Laura. You know what, fuck it, let's go out.

Kenndy: Oh shit!

Tiana: What?

Kenndy: It's about Hakeem. His wedding is (gco)

Tiana: I don't want to hear anything about Hakeem or his wack ass wedding. I'm going to get ready. (Goes upstairs)

Kenndy: Thought you should know his wedding was called off T. (Says to herself)

Present Day.........

Cookie: Baby this place is nice. But I thought you would have went back to your penthouse.

Hakeem: Nah. I like this place much better. More family oriented.

Cookie: For Ava? Tiana? Or both?
