The next morning Asia walks to Jamal's car with her bag and a woman gets out the passenger seat.

"Hey, you must be Asia. I've heard a lot about you. I'm Jamal's sister, Latrice", she said.

"Great to meet you", Asia said.

Jamal gets out the car and opens the trunk and puts Asia's stuff in the there.

"You can sit in the front", Latrice said.

"No, I can sit in the back. It's okay", Asia said.

"No, I'm sure my brother wants you with him", she said.

Asia nods.

Latrice goes to the backseat and Asia sits in the passenger seat.

During the ride "Forrest Gump" by Frank Ocean.

Asia begins to sing looking out the window thinking that nobody was paying attention to her.

Jamal hears her and makes a face and then turns the music down some to listen to her.

Asia stops singing and looks at him.

"Did I hear a little voice on you?", he asked.

Asia smiles and looks out the window.

"Oh shit na. Latrice did you hear her", Jamal asked.

"No", Latrice said.

"Sing", Jamal said.

"No", Asia said.

"Come on sing", he said.

Asia playfully rolls her eyes and sings along with the song.

Latrice's eyes widen.

"Okay I'm done, that's it", Asia said as she chuckled.

"Girl, you would be a perfect artist for me", Latrice said.

"Huh?", Asia asked.

"Latrice is a up and coming music producer", Jamal said.

"Oh I don't think so", Asia said. "I'm sorry"

"Please. It help me out a lot to get notice. Your voice is great", Latrice said. "Please"

"Now Latrice you cant force her but .. she would help a lot I'll tell you that", Jamal said.

"I'll have to think about", Asia said.

"Dang. What isn't great about you? You can sing too.. you like the perfect woman", Jamal said.

Asia chuckles. "I'm far from perfect". Asia said. "Nobody is perfect"

"But it'll be great for you to let me know like tomorrow", Latrice said.

"Tomorrow?",Asia asked.

"Yes.. I have a show where my artists sing and one of them is okay but.. she isn't really ready to preform", Latrice said.

Asia was quiet.

"How about this. You do it and see how you like it and if you don't, don't do it", Jamal said.

"Okay, fine", Asia said. "I'll do a show"

"Thank you", Latrice said excitedly. "The show is in a couple weeks. You'll have enough time to practice"

Asia nods.
