3am

by Jai Bree'nae

3AM; the hour of the artist. Writers write, painters paint, and musicians are in the studio. Aren’t all artists up at 3AM? Love is an art form, so lovers are up as well. 3AM is the hour at that all guards are let down; when we're at our purest, most vulnerable form. If you want to get to someone's soul, get them talking at 3AM...Symphony Stewart is a beautiful girl with a far-from-beautiful past that she's trying to run away from. You know what they say about running away from your past… 'It doesn't work; because wherever you go, you take yourself with you.' That's exactly what Symphony does. She takes her problems from Dallas with her to Houston; and without paying any attention, she collides into Kenyatta Kumar, a reckless-talking, rude boy from Homestead. Kenyatta has a horrid past, a swag, and a cocky demeanor - all his own. His qualities are ones that make him see women for what they fuck buddies. He has no plans of changing, that is, until he meets the gray-tornado-eyed, mean-ass woman, that is Symphony. In this complicated love story, it's their identical souls that push them together and pull them apart. Is there such a thing as happily-ever-after, for people like them? Can they move past the pain of their pasts for a better future? Maybe; ask them at 3AM.
