Based in 2020, outskirts of Atlanta, Georgia Capri Laurent, a 19 year old community college student pursuing a degree with no real end goal in mind. Living at home with his parents, sister and baby bo, his life isn't as easy as it appears to be. Having his son at the ripe age of 17, Capri has to make ends meet for his kid, especially when the mother wasn't exactly in the picture. As if his life wasn't hard enough, after his son is diagnosed with autism Capri isn't sure how their lives will look for them. Playing the cards he was dealt, he grows, like a rose through concrete- with help of course. Harlem Santino, a 20 year old with dreams higher than he can reach. Harlem had always been amazing in sports, you name it- football, soccer, baseball, but basketball owned his heart. It was his passion, what kept the light shining bright in his big brown eyes. With a once in a lifetime opportunity with a full basketball scholarship to GSU Harlem would have been stupid to turn it down. However life had a twisted and fucked up way of making good people hurt. When his mother and only living family member is diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer Harlem is forced to touch bases with old connects and pick up a not so safe side hustle. All while balancing his sport management degree and his grilling basketball requirements. Seemingly both alone in their own ways, who knew that an old hardly in use skating rink, a few joints, and good old r&b story telling would bring two drowning souls together and make life seem all the more bearable.

DISCLAIMER: Me and my friends were freaks..... there is really no other way to put it, now I can't speak for them but I was the type of nigga who would let a nigga fuck, take a shower, then drive across town and fuck his best friend. I was the type of dude who enjoyed letting three or maybe four niggas have their way with me.... I was wild in college, but now I've calmed down some, don't get it twisted I was still a freak only now I was more selective with who I chose to mess around with. This story is basically about me and my friends' freaky exploits and the consequences that came with those choices.... it's also about dealing with being the result of an affair and the drama that came with carrying the DeBaillion name. So if threesomes, orgies, pool sex, public sex, gangbangs, murder, mystery, and drama aren't your thing feel free to back out now but if you decide to stay and listen to my story just know you're in for a wild ride.................
