"It's really weird how you didn't answer my phone calls but yet you're in here doing nothing." Tayeisha said as she entered her bestfriend, Brit, apartment.

Brit sighed and looked away from the sad movie she was watch to look at Tayeisha.

"Nick and I broke up. I guess I wasn't enough for him. He hit me with that 'it's not you, it's me,' bullshit. Four fucking years down the drain." Brit vented then busted out crying.

Tayeisha tried to comfort her friend but really just wanted to tell her she was stupid for even dating an asshole like Nick. Nick put her through everything you can imagine, even forced her to get an abortion. Still through everything, Brit stayed with Nick.

"It's ok Brit. You're a beautiful girl that can bounce back quickly. There's a man put there for you somewhere. You're still young." Tayeisha said.

"That's easy for you to say. You're 21, fresh out of college, and you have a career going for you. I'm still living off my daddies money. I have nothing going for me." Brit whined.

Brit didn't think she needed further education after high school so she skipped out on applying to colleges and decided she was just going to find a rich man to make her happy. Now she's noticing that there's more to life than depending on someone for everything.

"Everything will be fine. How about we have a girls night out tonight? You can get your mind off of Nick and we can turn up like old times!" Tayeisha said, trying to pump up Brit. Brit's from slowly turned upside down.

"Pick me up at 10 girly!" She squealed.

Brit and Tay shared a hug before Tayeisha grabbed her bag and left her friends apartment. Tay got into her car and started to head home.

Even though Tay has everything in line in her life, she still lives with her parents. Seeing as she's fresh out of college and she never had a reason or time to get her own place, she's living with her parents. Being her parents only child, they couldn't be happier to accommodate their precious daughter.

Once Tay got home, she got out of her car and got inside the house to be hit with the cool air coming from the air conditioner. Tayeisha's family definitely lived large from their mansion, to the cars, to the clothes. Everything they owned had more than one 0 at the end of the price tag.

"Mommy! Daddy!" Tay yelled throughout the house. She removed her heels and her blazer.

"Hey princess." Tayeisha's dad, Apollo, appeared. He walked up to his daughter and kissed her forehead.

"Hey daddy. How was your day?" Tayeisha asked.

"Great. Making money and making sure business is booming. You know the grind never stops, a hustler never sleeps." Apollo said, running his hand down his waves.

Apollo is a very attractive man at the age of 43 years old with not a gray hair in sight and not a wrinkle to show his age. He was still built like he was back in his twenties and he definitely showed it off.

"Ok daddy." Tayeisha laughed. "Where's mom?" Tayeisha asked.

"I sent her out to do some errands and then get her nails done." Apollo said as he walked into the living room and took a seat.

"Didn't she get them done a few days ago?" Tayeisha asked with her eyebrows scrunched up.

"Yeah but she broke like two from scratching on my back last night when she was reaching her peak." Apollo said, smirking to himself, knowing that he still got the deep strokes to make his wife go crazy.

Tayeisha fake gagged then walked out of the room, heading upstairs. It disgust her all the time how her parents still had sex and were so open about it. She could never understand and didn't plan on it anytime soon.

Tayeisha looked at the time and noticed she had 4 hours until she had to pick up Brit. She stripped naked and grabbed her towel before entering her bathroom. She turned on her in shower stereo before hopping into the shower. She sung along to Trini Dem Girls by Nicki Minaj as she cleaned herself up.

Once Tay got out the shower she lotioned up her body then put in her matching black lace bra and pantie set. She took a seat in front of her vanity mirror, turning on the lights that surrounded the mirror. It takes Tayeshia a good 1 1/2 hours to completely do her makeup usually so that's why she started getting ready so early.

After Tayeisha finished her makeup, she went into her closet already knowing what she's going to wear. She pulled out her black full bodysuit and slipped it on. She fixed the front since it was a deep V-Neck and her boobs were all out. She put on her thigh high suede heel boots to complement her outfit. Tayeisha never left the house look less than a bad bitch.

She put in some simple diamond studs and a rose gold MK watch. She picked up her phone and texted Brit telling her to be ready in 20 minutes. Tayeisha was ready to stunt on all the basic bitches she was about to see tonight.

•••

Once Brit and Tay arrived at Club Red they got in instantly. They never waited in lines and never planned on it. Once they entered the club they got their own table and ordered some drinks and shots to start off with.

"I honestly don't even want to remember this night tomorrow morning. That's how fucked up I want to get." Brit yelled in Tayeisha's ear over the loud music.

Tayeisha rolled her eyes knowing she couldn't get lit like she wanted because she would be the designated driver for the night. Tayeisha just turned 21 two weeks ago and she was enjoying being able to legally drink. She could joe drink without having to get a plug or worrying about being illegally under the influence.

Their drinks were soon brought over to them and Brit downed 3 of the 5 shots that they ordered, back to back.

"Girl, slow down. Their not going anywhere." Tayeisha joked.

"Let's go dance!" Brit pulled on Tayeisha's arms and led her to the dance floor.

Brit and Tayeisha danced together for a few songs until a guy interrupted and started dancing with Brit. Not wanting to be a third wheel, Tayeisha took herself back to their table. She sat and continued to sip on her drink as she watched everybody have a good time.

"Excuse me, beautiful." Tayeisha looked up to see the finest piece of chocolate she's seen in a while.

"Yes?" Tay asked, wanting to here his sexy self talk some more.

He welcomed himself to a seat and licked his plump lips while looking at Tayeisha.

"My name is Zeon, you?" He introduced himself.

"Tayeisha Peterson." I said.

"Peterson...Apollo Peterson's daughter right?" Zeon asked smoothly, surprising Tayeisha.

"Yeah...how do you know?" Tayeisha asked, slightly amused.

"Lucky guess." Zeon played it off with his charming smile with his perfectly straight and white teeth.

Truth is Zeon knows about Tayeisha and took this opportunity to introduce himself. Shocked is an understatement on how he felt when he saw her walk into his club looking so sexy. He was actually quite amused. He appreciated a girl who can dress.

"Sure is." Tayeisha said then took a sip of her drink.

For some reason, Tay had an instant attraction to Zeon and couldn't help the thoughts that ran through her mind as she stared at the clean cut, well dressed man in front of her. His presence oozed sexiness and made Tayeisha have to remind herself that she's a virgin. The fact I thoughts in her mind were definitely not clean and pure.

"I'll see you around. Duty calls beautiful." Zeon said, interrupting Tayeisha's thoughts.

"Uh yeah." Tay said slowly. Zeon flashed another smile before getting up and leaving.

Tay cursed herself in her head for not getting his number at least. She knows she ain't about to see his sexy ass again.
