The dim light of a single lamp cuts through the Harlem night, casting long shadows across Leilani's bedroom. The air smells of tropical fruit and the faint crackle of a speaker playing old-school beats. On the floor, Ava and Imani are sprawled among pillows, their laughter floating up as they scroll through a game on Leilani's phone. A dare passes between them, electric. Leilani hesitates, biting her plump lip, then types furiously. Her diamond nose studs glint as she hits send. She tosses the phone onto the rug, arms crossed. "He not finna reply word to.. i heard he talkin to some girl anyway-" But the screen buzzes. you's name lights up. Her eyes lock on it, and the room goes still.
