Samone held her babygirl in her arms while she twirled around
the living room listening to a mix of artists. She woke up in a
good mood, and Eva woke up with a smile on her face, so they
were spreading good vibes all throughout the day. Lacy walked
into the livingroom smiling at Samone. Aeson was right behind
her and he began dancing too..
Samone. Go baby go baby go!
Aeson smiled and continued to bounce as Lacy laughed.
Samone smiled and took a breath as Lacy made her way over to her
looking at Eva.
Samone. Yall about to go?
Lacy. Yeahh. Tristan is taking us to the zoo today...
Samone nodded and smiled.
Samone. That sounds like fun..
Lacy. Do you two have plans today?
Samone shook her head.
Samone. Nope. We're just going to be around the house.. PDub is
supposed to stop by sometime today but -shrug- I plan on being
here..
Lacy. Well you two keep enjoying the day..
Samone. Yall too.. Tell Tristan I said hey..
Lacy nodded and rubbed Eva's hand before Aeson walked over to
them. Lacy picked him up, and they headed out of the door.
Samone looked down at Eva and smiled as she found that Eva was
smiling at a corner in the ceiling.
Samone. What are you looking at little girl? Do you see daddy?
Her heart smiled at Eva's smile grew wider and she began to
laugh at the empty space.. Samone pulled out her phone and
snapped a picture of Eva sending it to Aida and Lorenzo. She
felt like they had all equally lost an important person, so she
liked sending Aida and Lorenzo random pictures of Eva. She felt
like seeing Eva helped them too.
Samone. C'mon pretty girl.. Let's go get some breakfast going
while we wait and see who visits today..
Samone proceeded off to the kitchen with Eva still in her arms.

Preston sat in his car with the music playing as he listened
intently. A grin formed on his face. Since he'd gotten to Jorden
City, he made it a point to follow Jason's wishes and get into
the studio. It wasn't possible for him to spend money like he'd
wanted to, so he forced himself into getting a job and keeping
as low of a profile as he could. Now, he'd put together his
first demo in his life and he was more than excited about it. He
pulled out his phone and dialed Samone's number.
Samone. Hello?
Preston. What you doing right now?
Samone. Me and Eva are lounging around the house.
Preston. Bet, I'm coming over.
Samone. Why you sound so excited?
Preston. You'll see. I'm on my way.
Preston hung up and turned the volume up, vibing out to his own
voice as he drove down the highway...
...Preston stood on the porch with a grin as he heard Samone
shuffling around after his knock.
Preston. Hurry yo' ass up, girl!
Samone. Shut up, I'm on the way!
Samone popped the door open and Preston immediately hugged her,
picking her up off the floor.
Samone. Oh my God, what are you doing?!
Preston. Hugging you, lil Red!
Samone. This is the most emotion you've shown in the past year,
what the hell happened?
Preston. I finally finished it, Samone, and it's perfect. Yo,
it's like some of the most perfect music I ever heard. Even if
it wasn't mine, I would bump it. That's how perfect it is.
Samone. Well, let me hear it!
He pulled his phone from his pocket and handed her the
earphones.
Preston. It's already cued up. I'ma go play with lil mama.
Preston walked off and picked up baby Eva, grinning at her as
Samone listened to the music on full blast. Preston glanced at
her while hugging Eva closely, then whispering to her.
Preston. I'ma ask your mama to be my girlfriend today, kid.
Gotta keep my shawties around.
He smiled when Samone took the earphones out.
Samone. Preston, this is so good. You want me to give it to
D'Angelo?
Preston. Look at you, Superstar. Trying to help me out.
Samone. I would do it if I didn't know you. It's so good.
Preston. Thank you, sweetheart. What y'all doing today? Let's go
out and do something if you ain't got nothing going on.[/center]

Samone smiled at Preston as he held Eva close.
Samone. Nope.. We don't have any plans today.. What did you have
in mind?
Preston. Well.. It's a music festival going down at the park.. I
figured we could go..
Samone nodded.
Samone. Oh yeahh.. That does sound like fun..
Preston smiled.
Samone. I'll go get the stroller for Eva..
Preston nodded and he turned his attention to Eva. Samone made
her way to the hall closet pulling out a small stroller that
Eva's car seat would connect to. She grabbed Eva's diaper bag
from her room, and brought out the stroller. She watched as
Preston strapped Eva in her car seat and she smiled again seeing
Eva smile up at him.
Samone. PDub with the gentle touch.. My baby loves you..
Preston smirked.
Preston. I love her too...
Samone. -smile- Do we need snacks or something?
Preston shook his head.
Preston. We'll get something when we get there...
Samone shrugged slightly.
Samone. Alright.. I guess... -smirk- I remember you used to
stuff all that damn candy in your backpack when we went to the
movies... Lemme find out you're growing up..

Preston. We can make a store run and I can show you. I ain't
grown up that much.
Samone. Please don't.
They laughed as Preston picked up Eva's car seat and made his
way to his car with them. He got Eva situated in the car and
grinned at her as she touched his face.
Preston. I like my face, too, girl. Even though I gotta share it
now.
Samone. Have you talked to him today?
Preston. Him and Tiffany were going to spend the day with Eric
and Michelle.
Samone. You still don't call them mom and dad?
Preston. They ain't raise me, so no.
He shrugged and got into the driver's seat as Samone slid into
the passenger's seat...
...Preston pulled into a parking spot and looked out over the
field as it began to fill up slowly with festival goers.
Preston. Why y'all ain't performing here?
Samone. We had our festival run last year.
Preston. Oh, y'all too good for festivals now? 'Scuse the shit
outta me.
Samone laughed as they got out of the car with Eva. Preston
grabbed a blanket from the trunk of his car as they made their
way onto the field.
Preston. You wan to sit out in the open or up under a tree?
Samone. Tree. I don't need her getting overheated.
Preston. Lil' Red as a mama. Shit surreal.
Samone. Shut up.
They made their way to a huge tree and Preston laid out the
blanket as Samone got Eva out of the stroller and sat on the
ground with her. Before they could settle in, two teenagers
walked over to them.
??. Omg, you're Samone Roberts from CTS!
??. And you're Elijah Kingston!
Preston forced a smile. Since he'd been in Jorden City, every
time he went out, someone called him Elijah. He wasn't opposed,
it kept him off the radar. The problem was he never knew how to
answer to it. He just nodded and signed an autograph in Elijah's
name before the teenagers ran off.
Preston. Kid gon' be fucked up one day.
Samone. Why?
Preston. He gon' think he selling something with Elijah's
signature and that bitch gon' be fake as fuck.[/center]

Samone smiled at Preston and shook her head while Eva sat in her
lap, eyes bouncing from Samone to Preston.
Samone. Well hopefully he just wanted it for a keepsake..
Preston smirked and they both looked out at the stage as people
began to crowd around it.
Samone. You know.. I'm glad you're here PDub.. It's crazy the
way things come full circle..
Preston. This is coming full circle?
Samone shrugged slightly.
Samone. I feel like it.. Like what are the odds one of my
favorite-est people from childhood would turn out to be my
bandmate's husband's twin.
Preston shook his head a little and laughed.
Preston. That shit sound real crazy...
Samone. It does... -laugh- but I wouldn't change a thing about
it.. I guess everything really does happen for a reason..
She smiled over at him then looked down at Eva who was beginning
to clap just because.

Preston shrugged.
Preston. I guess so.
Samone's eyes fell on the stage as one of the first acts began
performing, but Preston continued glancing over at her. Since
he'd gotten to Jorden City, they'd gotten incredibly close. If
they weren't working, they were spending time with each other.
Or, at the very least, talking to each other on the phone. The
last time he'd felt that way was when he was a child, handing
her candy he'd stolen from the Koreans at the corner store.
Preston. Aye, can I ask you something?
Samone. What?
Preston. You know we been reconnecting a lot over the past year.
And I really like you, Samone.
Samone. I like you, too.
Preston. Nah, I mean like more than a friend.
Samone looked over at him.
Preston. I want you to be my girlfriend.
Preston plucked a blade of grass before he looked at her again.
Samone. Why me?
Preston. Cause you get me. You really the only person I ever met
who get me. And you the only girl I can really see myself being
with.
Samone smiled and began to blush. They glanced at each other
momentarily before leaning toward each other. Just as their lips
were about to touch, they were interrupted by a loud clearing of
the throat. They both looked up at a young Latina staring at
him.
Yesenia. So, you left me for the other bitch...then you leave
her for this bitch?
Preston. Yo, what the fuck? Who the fuck are you?
Yesenia. Oh, you don't know me now?!
Preston stood up.
Preston. Nah, I don't. So keep walking.
The woman drew her hand back and he grabbed her wrist.
Preston. Bitch, you crazy?!
Yesenia. Get the fuck off me!
Preston noticed a couple of people watching them, trying to hide
their recording phones discreetly. He jerked the woman off
toward a nearby building and slammed her into a wall.
Preston. I don't know what the fuck your issue is--
Yesenia. You're my fuckin issue, Elijah!
Preston sighed once he realized what was going on.
Preston. I'm not Elijah, aite?
Yesenia. You think I wouldn't know what my ex looks like? You
think I'm fuckin stupid?!
Preston pulled his wallet from his pocket and snatched his ID
out, pushing it to her face.
Preston. My name is Preston Wilder, bitch. Elijah is my twin
brother.
Yesenia glared at the ID before looking at Preston in confusion.
He put his ID back up and stared at her.
Preston. Get the fuck outta here, yo.
He began to walk off back to Samone, who'd stood up with Eva in
her arms. Before he could get to her, Yesenia had grabbed him
and turned him around, only to slap him.
Yesenia. You a fuckin' liar, nigga!
Preston. Bitch, did you just slap me?!
Preston felt his anger boil up and, before he could react, he
felt Samone's hand on his arm. He turned and saw her look at
him.
Samone. We need to go.
Preston. This bitch just hit me![/center]

Samone watched the anger in his eyes and it scared her a little.
He looked like he was going to hit her back, and that would be a
disaster.
Samone. I saw... It was a mistake.. She's confused...
Preston turned back to look at Yesenia.
Preston. You better keep your fucking hands to yourself bitch!
Samone. C'mon.. It's okay... We have Eva remember?..
Samone glanced at the girl and back at Preston. When the girl
first approached them she thought she recognized her from the
diner, but she wasn't completely sure until the girl said
Elijah's name.
Yesenia. You got another baby too?!
Samone. Preston.. Can we please just go?
Samone looked at Preston then her eyes caught an approaching
security guard.
??. Is there a problem over here?!
Preston looked back at Samone and gave Yesenia another death
glare before he walked off with Samone.
Yesenia. I'll see you around bitch! Bet that!
Samone looked over he shoulder as Yesenia also walked away from
the security guard, then she watched as Preston pulled the
blanket up keeping everything that was on it in it.
Preston. C'mon.
Samone nodded and sat Eva down in her car seat before they began
walking back to the car. She could tell Preston was still livid
as he tossed the blanket and all of their stuff into his trunk.
She finished buckling up Eva and she stood up while he was
standing on side of her.
Samone. Calm down okay? That girl is crazy..
Preston looked at Samone then he looked past her at other people
who'd began recording again.. Once they got in the car and drove
off, her phone began to vibrate with an incoming call from
Tiffany.
Samone. Hello?
Tiffany. Are you still with Preston?
Samone. How did you...
Tiffany. There is a video of yall and that bitch going around...
It's all over my timeline right now.. I need yall to get here..
Samone. Okay.. We'll come by...
Preston glanced at Samone as she hung up with Tiffany.
Preston. Who was that?
Samone. Tiff.. She said people are sharing the video of what
just happened. She want's us to stop by their house...

Preston sighed and shook his head.
Preston. This is it, I guess.
Samone. What?
Preston. I was wondering how the fuck it was gon' come out that
we were twins. We been hiding it solid for a year, but that shit
wasn't sustainable. It was gon' come out...how they know that
girl?
Samone. I think she's Elijah's ex. But...I think something else
happened.
Preston. What?
Samone sighed.
Samone. Right before you got here, Tiffany lost her baby. She
said that girl, Yesenia, beat her up and caused her to miscarry.
Preston. You serious?
Preston glanced at her as she nodded.
Preston. How that bitch still breathing?
Samone. I don't know. They never went after her, though.
Preston. Well, she fucking with the right one with me. I'll end
that hoe, mane. Real shit.
He gripped the steering wheel as they rode on the highway toward
Elijah's house...
...Preston walked through the door after Tiffany opened it for
them. He hugged her as Elijah walked from the kitchen with their
parents in tow.
Michelle. Hey, you okay?
Preston. I'm straight.
He hugged them before sitting down.
Preston. Yo, she just came up on us popping shit.
Elijah. That's how she does.
Preston. So, wassup?
Tiffany. We're both getting tagged in the video like crazy.
Twitter, The Shade Room, all over.
Preston shook his head and looked at Elijah.
Preston. My bad, bruh. I ain't realize my anger was gon pop back
on you.[/center]

Elijah shook his head.
Elijah. It is what it is man.. Truth be told. She need to be
roughed up anyways..
Michelle. Elijah...
Elijah. What? She took my kid from me.. She lucky that's all she
got...
Before anything else could be said Elijah looked at his phone
and saw his manager was calling.
Elijah. Hold on yall..
He walked away from the group and answered the phone.
Elijah. Hello?
Tristan. Elijah..
Elijah. Yeah?
Tristan. Look. I need you to explain to me why I'm watching you
cheat on Tiffany then jack up some latina girl at a park that's
full of people?
Elijah. Easy explanation.. It wasn't me..
Tristan. You gotta come stronger than that man... It's a clear
shot and you look in the camera...
Elijah sighed.
Elijah. I have a twin...
Tristan. What?! I thought you was an only kid..
Elijah. I was until last year... -sigh- Look man.. It's a long
story.. But it wasn't me in that video though.. I been at home
all day with Tiff.. It's just a big ass misunderstanding.
Tristan. Well we need to clear this **** up.. And fast... I got
the owner of the team blowing my phone up for answers.
Elijah. Well. We're all here so you can come by..
Tristan. I'm on my way..
The two hung up and Elijah walked back over to the group looking
at them shaking his head.
Elijah. Even Tristan thought you was me... -smirk- I look like a
cheater and a woman beater all in one tape..
Preston. I aint no woman beater... But I wanted to hit her ass
back though.. Yall seen where she slapped me?
Tiffany. Na.. We didn't see that.. But I'm sure that would have
made an even bigger mess..
Samone. Yeah it definitely would have... I'm sure that girl and
I are both glad you didn't..

Tristan rode in silence toward Elijah's house. It had been a
couple of days since he spoke to Lacy, and he knew she would
have questions the next time they got the chance at a real
conversation. Every time she called he said he was working or
came up with some other excuse to not talk to her. He knew he
needed to tell her all about Darius Chambers, but he didn't know
how. He didn't know where to even start. He pulled into the
driveway and grabbed everything from his car as Michelle opened
the door.
Michelle. Hi, Tristan.
Tristan. Hey, Michelle. How are you?
Michelle. We'll see after this meeting, huh?
He kissed her cheek and walked into the house. He paused when
Elijah stood up and soon after, an identical man stood up. The
only difference between them was Elijah's hair was braided and
the identical man's hair was pressed into a ponytail.
Tristan. Okay. I know I'm not high.
Elijah. This is Preston, my twin brother.
Tristan shook his head.
Tristan. You've got an entire twin brother that I've never known
about?
Eric. We were told he died at birth, he just came into our lives
a year ago.
Michelle. And we've been trying to keep it under wraps out of
respect to him.
Tristan. That's out of the window now.
Preston. Why?
Tristan looked at Preston and sat his phone and keys down.
Tristan. Because your incident is reflecting badly on Elijah.
Endorsements are being threatened and everything.
Elijah. So, how do we fix it?
Tristan sighed and leaned on the couch.
Tristan. Honestly, the only way to do it is announce it to the
world. Elijah Kingston has a twin brother.
Tiffany. It sounds like a bad soap opera storyline.
Tristan. It does, but since it's real...-shrug-
Elijah. How do we do it? Just because we say it don't mean
they'll believe us.
Tristan. Easy. Instagram Live. You've got millions of followers.
If you get on there and show the world you've got a twin
brother, the attention will go to him.

Preston sighed and rubbed his face.
Tristan. It may not be ideal, but it's what has to happen.
Preston. What a way to enter the public eye.
Elijah. This could be a way to get your music out, though?
All eyes fell to Elijah except Tristan, who was looking at
Preston.
Tristan. Music?
Elijah. My twin brother here has my voice. I mean, obviously I
ain't doing no singing. But, this dude?
Tiffany. -to Tristan- He does have an amazing voice.
Preston. Yo, y'all chill.
Samone. Have they heard your demo?
Preston shook his head to Samone.
Tristan. Okay...it can be spun. 'R&B Bad Boy' still gets a lot
of love. Women love a man that's rough around the edges, and
you've damn sure got the looks to get across.
Preston. Why does this sound like we're pimping me out?
Tristan. We're just trying to find a positive spin on all of
this.[/center]
