office he noticed it was beautiful. She had the best view he had ever seen. She had style. Brielle was on the computer and on the phone so she had yet to look up to see him.
                  "Yes, thank you. I'll make sure he will be present on Thursday at your event. Okay, you have a good day," Brielle hung up the phone and finished typing. She said, "Sorry Mr. Sanchez you can take a seat," still not looking up.
                  "Thank you," Kiyan responded. As soon as she heard that voice, she just froze up. It couldn't be, she looked up. Damn, it was. Just my luck, she thought.
                  "What do you want?" she questioned.
                  "Damn, could I get a hello first?" Kiyan smiled.
                  "Hello, now what do you want?" Brielle asked.
                  "First of all, I wanted to ask you about representing Alonzo and to hear your plans for him if you decide to accept him. Second, I wanted to come to you in person to apologize for being an asshole yesterday." Kiyan explained.
                  "I'm listening," Brielle waited.
                  "Brielle, I'm sorry. No I apologize for being an asshole on our date yesterday. I assumed the worse of you based on my past experiences and I made an ass out of myself. I really would like to start over with you because I know you are not a slouch and I know you don't need me for shit" Kiyan apologized.
                  Brielle sat thinking if she should accept his apology or not. She still wasn't completely over him basically calling her a gold digger. She was pissed from her conversation with Murder, so she was trying to decide if she should take her anger out on Kiyan. That was childish, she thought.
                  "Look Kiyan, yesterday made me realize that I tried too soon after breaking of my last relationship. I'm not looking for a man right now. And when I do start looking for a man, I'm not looking for someone who quickly assumes the worse of me. So, I do accept your apology, but we can't start over," Brielle said.
                  "I can understand, but we got something between us and it ain't over. We didn't even get a chance,” Kiyan countered. Brielle just continued to look at him. She was confused as to why Kiyan was the second man today who was quick to say something wasn't over. He didn't even know her like that so why was he so determined to make something work between them. 
                  "Look Kiyan, this is a battle I'm not willing to fight in. I just told you, I couldn’t pursue anything with you. " Brielle stated.
                  "Yeah iight, we'll see. That's another conversation. Now back to Alonzo’s image. Can you help him?" Kiyan said changing the subject.
                  "Well, I've heard great things about Alonzo. He has great potential. I should be able to help him a lot. I could help him get endorsements and other big business deals. Is he willing to work with me?" Brielle asked.
                  "Of course. He needs the best so he wants you," Kiyan said. I want you too, he thought.
                  "Okay, well here's my contract. Y'all can go over it and then after you’re done, bring it back and we can get started," Brielle said.
                  "Cool, we'll go over this today and have it back to you by Wednesday. Thursday the latest," Kiyan responded. "Oh yeah one more thing"
                  "Kiyan, we will not be going out again." Brielle said assuming.
                  "You talking about me assuming, I wasn't even going to say that." Kiyan joked.
                  "I'm sorry," Brielle suddenly got embarrassed.
                  "No problem. But your girl Danielle broke things off with my boy Cam before anything could happen between them." Kiyan started. Now he had Brielle's full attention. "I
