raggedy ass Nissan Stanza, and go close out another; but all of that stopped once I met Tyrin. A lot of things ceased once I met Tyrin, the clubs, the bars, the whole scene just seemed to disappear.
My world is my baby and my baby is my world. Spencer understands that and is so supportive of my relationship that when Tyrin and I have disagreements he always makes sure that I see both sides of the picture. People used to question why he and I never got together on that level and we would laugh at the thought of it. It would be like incest. He and I know too much about each other to even attempt to cross that line. I once heard someone say that your best friend is supposed to be your lover, husband, wife, or whatever your into; but I firmly believe that you can’t tell the person you’re sleeping with everything, and you need someone on the outside to go to when necessary.
“Good morning ladies and gentlemen. We are now about to start our descent into San Francisco. Please make sure your tray table is secure and your seat is in the upright position. An attendant will be by shortly to pick up any trash that you may have. Once landed please wait until the Captain has turned off the fasten seatbelt sign before you move around within the aircraft. Also be careful when opening overhead compartments, some items may have shifted during our flight. The weather in San Francisco is 89 degrees and should remain the same throughout the day. We hope you enjoyed your flight and will choose us again for all of your traveling needs.”
“Just land the damn plane, shit.”
“Shut up Kerry!”

Inside the 5th floor office of IS IT LIVE, sounds of the latest hits are blaring through the speakers. Tyrin walks the floors like a king overseeing his land, making sure everyone is doing exactly what they’re paid to do. He has a staff of ten full time employees and also utilizes a few interns to assist with the many contracts afforded the company. The environment is constantly busy with people bustling in and out, but for the most part, Tyrin runs a tight ship that is all about producing a quality product.
He sits behind the desk sifting through letters of invite, bank statements, bills, and the other miscellaneous mail his receptionist handed him when he arrived. He let out a sigh, clicked on his computer, and shook his head at all the unanswered e-mails that were starting to take over the screen. He picked up the phone and dialed Craig’s extension to get an update on where he was with the urgent project from earlier.
“This is Craig.”
“How you coming along with that flyer?”
“It’s all good. I’ll be done with it in about an hour. You need to call Koya though because she needs to find out what time that group is coming in for their shoot.”
“Will do. Hit me up if you need me.”
“Got it. Oh, Ty, what time you going to lunch, I wanna roll with you.”
“Man I just got here.”
“Well I didn’t and I’m hungry. Don’t go eat without me or that’s yo ass.”
“Just finish the flyer and we’ll hook up something for lunch.”
“Yep.”
Tyrin hung up the phone and called Koya, “Koya speaking how may I help you?”
“Hey sweetheart, how are you doing?”
“I’m good. But I have a question for you.”
“So I heard.” He leaned back in the leather chair waiting to hear what Koya had to ask.
“What kind of concept am I using for this group I about to start shooting? I mean I know that they’re a new male R&B group but what audience are they trying to attract. What is their vibe? I need motivation.”
“Well all I know is that they have a song out called ‘Who Can?’. They are doing well on the charts but as far as their audience, I don’t think they’re trying to appeal to kids. I believe they are more for the young adult audience. Wait, has their promoter called yet? I told her new ass that we needed some info as to what their concept was.”
“I haven’t gotten a call, but that
