Author's Note: Well, hey guys! I'm officially back! This book is back for another season! It's been a while! Now, I'm not going to lie. I probably won't be able to update as often as before. However, I am gonna try my best to update every Sunday.
So, I've made a change. The actress who portrays the main character, Carmen Brown has been changed. She will now be portrayed by Sofia Bryant and she will be the new face claim.
So, yeah.
I hope you guys enjoy this chapter! Get ready for season three!

CARMEN BROWN pulled up to her brand new condo located in Manhattan, NY. She couldn't help but to flash a smile as she parked in the driveway. She saw her Auntie Jada standing by the front door, instructing Malcom as he helped move in the boxes.
"Ay, yo. Please be careful with the vase. It's fragile, mister." Jada warned. "Baby, I got this." Malcom told her. "I just wanna make sure. You know Carmen would have a fit." Jada said, as Malcom walked slowly into the house.
"Are y'all talking shit about me?" Carmen joked, as she hopped out the car. "No. Of course not." Jada joked back, making Carmen giggle. "Hi, Auntie." Carmen greeted, as she walked up and hugged her. "Hello, babydoll. How are you?" Jada inquired.
"I'm doing pretty good. A lot better at least." Carmen said.
"Do like your brand new place?" Auntie Jada asked, walking into the house. "Yes. It's beautiful." Carmen said, walking in behind her. "Aw I'm so proud of you. You're doing what you have to do to get your life back on track." Jada said.
"Thanks, Auntie. It hasn't been easy, you know. First all the bullshit that was going on with Tariq. Then the loss of the baby... It's been a lot." Carmen spoke. "Yeah... I know, dear. We're gonna get through this, though. Together." Jada voiced.
Carmen just smiled before pulling Jada in for another hug.
"Come on. Let's go and make sure Malcom doesn't almost break anything else." Jada joked, causing Carmen to giggle.

Meanwhile, TARIQ ST. PATRICK was in his old shared dorm room with Brayden, packing up all of his stuff with the help of Effie. As he cleared out one of his drawers, he came across a bunch of old photos. The pics were of Yas, Raina, Grandma Estelle, and then Lauren.
Tariq sighed deeply as he stared at the picture of him and Lauren. Effie looked over and peeped the photo in his hand, making her stop packing.
