Sonia turned towards the door, wondering if the sound of the music would be loud enough to get to Bryan's room, but she shook her head. Bryan was fast asleep, and the doors were closed, so he definitely wouldn't hear the music, she concluded as she scrolled through the albums on her phone until she stopped at Cardi B's album. She was definitely in the mood for some Cardio B music, Sonia thought as she tapped on Cardi B's 'I Like It', and soon the sound of music flooded the place. Bryan watched in…-

After Bryan's phone conversation with Matt, he tried to read the novel he had picked up earlier, but he was unable to read it because his mind was clouded with thoughts of Sonia and he kept staring at her picture which was behind the novel. He rolled over on the bed but all he could perceive on his sheets was her scent, so he decided to go out to the poolside as usual to have a nightcap and enjoy the cool evening breeze. While sitting there, enjoying the cool evening breeze he remembered the last time…

Bryan lay on his bed unable to sleep, while also trying to find other things to keep his mind busy so that his thoughts wouldn't drift to the green-eyed witch in the other room down the hall. Dinner had been very quiet since he had been sulking while expecting her to feel guilty and apologize to him, but she had entirely ignored him and focused on her laptop instead as she ate. Once they were done with dinner she had taken the dishes to the kitchen, washed and dried them before leaving for her bedroom…

Although Tom had seen this coming since he receive the dinner invitation, and that was the reason he had asked both Jasmine and Alicia to not tell Lucy that he was new to the neighborhood, but he hadn't imagined Lucy would as the question so soon. He tried to think of the conversation from the start to figure out what could have prompted her to ask such a question, but he couldn't come up with anything. Seeing how he remained silent, Alicia stepped in to save her potential sperm donor, "We should head…

Lucy stood in front of her closet wondering what she could wear to the dinner. The only reason she wasn't changing her mind at the last minute was because Tom was going for the dinner too, else she would have come up with an excuse to skip it. She really despised dressing up and leaving her house, especially because of the time it took to make up her mind on what to wear. She didn't know which she hated more between being overdressed and underdressed to an occasion. Being overdressed would make you…

"Did I hear you say someone is interested in my brother?" Bryan asked Sonia after she hung up the call with Lucy and dropped the phone on the table. "It's mere speculation. But then again, a lot of ladies are interested in your brother so it shouldn't be a big deal, should it?" Sonia asked as she stood up from the dining to head into the kitchen. "Is the lady bothering your friend?" Bryan asked curiously as he followed behind her in his wheelchair which he was quickly beginning to get used to.…

Now that Lucy was relaxed on her couch, in the privacy of her home, she took a moment to reflect on all that had happened at the Cinema earlier that day. How had she not realized that Tom's change of attitude after Anita's arrival was that of annoyance and irritation and not embarrassment? Was she really that naive and clueless? And how come Anita didn't give her any hint that she had been in a relationship with Tom? Especially considering the fact that they were both 'friends'? Why was she hiding it?…

Bryan had a scowl on his face when he checked the time again on his wristwatch for what seemed to be the one-thousandth time. He was mad that Sonia was yet to return after almost seven hours, and he was even madder that he was mad that she was yet to return. What was taking her so long? How difficult could it be to shop for simple clothes? And how come after he rejected the clothes she had shown him earlier she was yet to show him any other clothes? The production team had come to the house to look…

"So, what can I offer you?" Brandy asked as she set Jamal on the couch and turned to look at Matt who was looking around the living room curiously. "I don't mind a glass of water," Matt said with a smile of gratitude, grateful that he had been invited in, even though it wasn't by Candace. "Order coming up shortly," Brandy announced as she walked away leaving Matt alone with Jamal. "So, how did you become my mom's friend?" Jamal asked, narrowing his eyes suspiciously once they were alone. Matt…

Matt adjusted the collar of his shirt and looked into the rearview mirror to be sure he looked okay before stepping out of his car. He knew that Candace was probably going to be upset when she sees him, but there was little else he could do. He wanted to see her, and he wanted to talk to her. The following evening after the private performance she had given him, he had waited at the back area of the club where he knew she would leave through, until he saw her walking out, looking completely different…
