Just a few of the hateful things that Jazzmyn had heard growing up in drug riddled public housing. She gave up her life to raise her 3 younger siblings right so that the streets didn't swallow them up. Finally given the right tools to get where she needs to be in life, she has to manage raising 3 kids from half-way across the country.
Being a rookie isn't easy, but being a rookie for a team that is considered "one of the worst teams" in the NBA makes it 10× harder especially when you know you have the talent and drive to take this team places where it's never been. Kyle worked his whole life to get where he is and he knows he's blessed to even be in this position but he can't help but to wonder how his life could be better.
Fate brings these two together, they unknowingly teach each other to appreciate life no matter what your situation might be.

Stone's Diary: Kairo
It was 5 years later. Time has changed. The seasons came and gone as did people. With his parents troublesome separation, 19-year-old Kairo was growing into the man he once aspired to be like; his father. But just because he looked and moved like him, didn't mean that he was anything like the man who had fucked up a good thing with his mom, or was he? He had girls, older and younger gawking and chasing after him. His family saw him as one person but in their absence, touring the streets with young Zaire, he was a different person. Despite all of that, there was love brewing; old and new and Kairo was aware of one in particular. But how far would a person be willing to go for love? Would they die for it? Could he stand back and watch another man love the woman that his father should have? Kairo knew of the man in his mother's life even if she tried to deny things. The only question he had for his father was; What Will It Take? Zaire was a lot like his father in many ways but he was still a sweetheart but proved on many occasions that he had no problems with getting his hands dirty. When you put those two together, you were bound to get into trouble. Then we had Ava, baby girl was 20 going on 21 and had graduated high school with honors and earned her associate's degree in nursing and was currently working on her last two years to earn her bachelors in fashion. She was still friends with Kayla and Michelle but was sure to kick it with Michelle every once in a while, being that her father was still trying to dig up dirt on King. The twins were grown, out of college, traveling here and there and supporting the Goonies' success of being drafted into the NBA two years ago. They were playing for the Phoenix Suns for the time being until a newer opportunity presented itself and they visited as often as they could during the offseason. Sweet little Assyria was 16, in her junior year with Zaire, both ready to get the heck out of school. ©️_jasthewriterComplete
