Imani is a very busy girl. She is always dealing with and stressing about some kind of issue in her life 24/7. The constant colorism, texturism, misogynoir, and religious mockery she got from people at her school; having to maintain high grades, healthy friendships, and her job; having to take care of the house by herself many days due to her parents' long work hours and so many more worries for her. As if all her 99 personal, emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical problems aren't enough, they are soon to become 100 problems after she begins to catch feelings for her athletic, smart, kind, highly-wanted friend, Beau.

Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it a memory... You know you're in love when you can say anything to the person and you know they won't laugh at you. When you can see their face when you close your eyes. When you can still feel their arms around you holding you tight after they're gone. When you can still taste their kiss after you have said goodbye. You can tell you're in love when you miss them before they're gone. When their voice lingers in your ears. When their presence eases any pain. When their name sends chills down your spin. When they're the only thing you can think about. You know you're in love when you can see all their hopes and dreams and their soul when you look into their eyes. When they call you at four in the morning to say, "I Love You" and mean it. When your tears stain not only their shirt, but also their heart. When even a simple chore done with them can become a lasting memory. Ultimately, you know you're in love when you can't imagine living without them and can't figure how did you live before you knew them. When they fulfill every need and without them you're incomplete. The love of someone else completes the heart, and sound and mind all at once. 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟓, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟎-𝐟𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟏𝟎, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏Complete
