      Earlier on today, I had a meeting with successful business owners that excelled into million dollars companies which was deeply inspiring to me as a young entrepreneur getting started into the business industry. I was definitely learning a lot, taking down facts and asking them questions about their success. Also, I was building my portfolio for my modeling career with a new modeling agency that saw the potential in me on becoming an star.
                          
It was weird how my life was moving in only a few weeks being here. I was now going to work with someone else on starting a business and also building my own self up as a personalization brand. 
                          
There was a lot of things that were needed to be done before starting the business but I was very excited about everything happening in my life at the moment. Especially with Katrina being my manager, I knew that I'll become a forced to reckoned with in the business industry.
                          
"I'm still trying to figure out why our parents are giving King a hard time.." Katrina stated, "They willingly kicked us out of the house, so why put him in that?"
                          
"I don't understand that either," I said, covering my mouth whole yawning. "I'm so tired right about now, I just want to go home and sleep.."
                          
"You'll have longer nights happening real soon, so I'd be happy with my schedule now.." Katrina vocalized. "You've never told me how'd your meeting went though, what happened?"
                          
I scratched my nose. "There was a few business owners at the meeting, giving us a few key pointers on how to start a business and having the right attitude.. also there was a few people against us but one man really vocal about us being in the business industry because we were too young."
                          
"Too young?" Katrina gave a bitter laugh, before pulling up into McDonald's drivethru. "I don't understand why older people always include age, as if you can't succeed as a young adult, just because they couldn't do it at their young age doesn't mean that'll be your story, you will succeed trust me – you want something from here?"
                          
I was glad that at least someone believed in me that I'll be successful, because I often had my own doubts. 
                          
"Yeah, a spicy chicken combo and I'm feeling crispy today so a good sprite would do!" I told her. 
                          
She nodded her head, telling the cashier her orders being two spicy chicken combos before they told her the price and to pull up to the first window. 
                          
While she waited, I pulled my cellphone out of my purse to call my crush because I didn't get to speak to him today or hear his voice which was so smooth. 
                          
He answered the phone in a raspy tone, "Hey baby girl!"
                          
"Hey Deion, were you sleeping?" I questioned.
                          
"Yeah, But it's all good ma'.." He replied. "How was your day today?"
                          
"It was long, but if its what it takes to make it.." I answered. "What about you sir?"
                          
"I was chilling today, making music in the studio." He stated, "Are you free later though?" 
                          
"Anytime for you, Deion."
