Michelle took a seat in one of the chairs that was facing my desk, and when she sighed before putting the iPad down, I already knew that it was bad.

Before I looked at the iPad, I looked at Michelle.

My girl was so beautiful, too. Naturally beautiful.

Without any kind of enchantment. Living in Miami, this was the city of botched females, BBL’s, and anything that a woman could purchase on her body to make herself feel better, she was going to do that.

Michelle had such a beautiful face. Her skin was light, and she had beautiful freckles on her face.

She was a ginger, with natural curly hair, and today, she had her curls hanging loosely.

She had a slim build to her, she probably was 5’6, and she could dress her ass off.

I lived for the fashion pieces that she would put together.

She was a young woman, just 28 years old, and she was single, without any children.

Michelle played for the other side. Meaning, she didn’t like penis.

She was a lesbian woman, and she made it clear every time that no one could give her a million dollars to be with a man.

From what I hear is left over out here with these men, I couldn’t even blame her on her decision.

“You’ll see. This shit is bad. Those girls that she runs with; they’re going to be her demise.

It’s like they continue to put her in situations where she’s destroying her image,” Michelle said, turning the iPad around, and she went ahead, and pressed play.

She was showing me a live Instagram video that had been screen recorded, and TMZ had it posted to their website.

TMZ was my worst nightmare in the industry that I was in.

They were the ones that would put out the worst kind of footage of my clients, and it would be me, and my team, that had to do the work and clean it up.

I sat up at the edge of the chair, with my elbows on the table, prepared to see this mess that was playing on the video.

Before Autum started talking, you could hear the loud music in the background that was playing.

Smoke was in the air from the blunt that she was holding in her hand.

She was reading the comments, and people were telling her to turn the music down, so that they could hear her.

She was standing there in just a black bra, and a short skirt.

Judging from the comments, she’d already told her fans that she was getting ready to go out because they were in the comments, asking her where she was getting ready to go.

“Dee, turn the music down. They in the comments saying that it’s too loud,” Autum’s voice said, as she was still looking at the comments.

Autumn was a very pretty girl, but she was super rough around the edges.

She was one of those girls that had literally come from nothing.

She’s been a client of mine for the past year and change, and during this time, we’ve gotten close, and I grew to learn a lot about her.

I looked at her as a little sister. She needed guidance in her life, and we had a relationship that was outside of our business relationship.

Her grandmother raised her because her mom was a young mother that ran away from her responsibilities.

She was raised in the slums. Her grandmother was young raising her, so she pretty much let Autum do whatever she wanted to.

By the time she’d turned seventeen, she’d already dropped out of high school.

By eighteen, she was stripping. Autum always had a love for music though, and on her free time, she would write raps, speaking on a lot of the pain that she’d endured as a child.

With the help of social media, two years ago, she started posting her raps, and within a few months, she’d gained a lot of traction, and people worldwide were fuckin with her.

She was quickly signed to a label, and Michelle was the one that showed Autum to me.

When you saw her, the first thing you were going to do was compliment her on her beauty, but once she opened her mouth to speak, you would roll your eyes because she had such a terrible attitude.

I still have nightmares of one of her first interviews of her rolling her eyes at some of the questions they were asking her, saying outlandish shit, and just her lack of engagement.

Beautiful girl though. Caramel skin, the most beautiful green eyes that I’ve ever seen, nice teeth, and her body was filled with tattoos.

She even had a tattoo of a rose that was on the side of her face.

I knew that I could transform her, and that’s why I had my team reach out to her label, so that we could get the connection started, and it happened almost immediately.

Autumn was probably the most difficult client that I’ve ever had to deal with, and if she were anyone else, I would have dropped her months ago because I’m always saving her from a lot of the stupid shit that she does, but I know that I’m that one piece of guidance in her life that she needs.

“This the part where she’s about to start talking crazy,” Michelle let me know, and I continued paying attention to the video.

“Somebody in the comments just said that they saw me out with Savannah two nights ago, and they asking if me, and her are dating. Are ya’ll fuckin stupid?

Damn. Every time ya’ll see a bitch out, the first thing ya’ll be quick to do is make up a stupid ass scenario, getting the world to run with the fact that ya’ll think I’m fuckin that person.

Ya’ll say some of the dumbest shit. I swear, bruh,” Autumn snapped, right before she put the blunt to her lips, took a long pull, and then she released the smoke into the air.

“Who is Savannah?” you could hear one of Autumn’s home girls ask from the background.

“You know Savannah Thomas. She plays for the WNBA. Me, and Savannah are cool. That’s my home girl.

Ain’t nobody gay around this bitch. I know I may be a little rough around the edges, but I like dick.

.. cock... penis. Fuck out of here with that stupid shit, man.

I don’t do that lesbian shit. I personally feel like people that likes the same sex are dumb as fuck,” Autumn just kept going, digging her hole even deeper.

When she said that last part of her statement, I swear it felt like my stomach had caved in, and my heart immediately started beating even faster.

That statement was reckless, and it was wrong in all areas.

This was going to hurt her career tremendously, and the sad part about it, this girl has her first album coming out tomorrow, that millions of fans around the world are waiting for her to release, and just that fast, she ruined it by being stupid.

I looked up at Michelle, and I cringed. I paused the video for a quick second.

“If I’m offended by her statement, imagine how the rest of the gays, and lesbians feel. Autumn was drunk, and she was high in this video, but Yaya, we not going to use that as an excuse,” Michelle said, and I nodded because I completely agreed with her.

I went ahead, and pressed play, so that I could finish watching this disaster that I was going to have to find a way to clean up.

“I can’t believe ya’ll even asked me that shit.

Ya’ll obviously don’t know shit about me because if you did, you would know that I have never in my live banged pussy with another bitch.

I stripped for two years, and I never messed around with any of those hoes in that club.

I like real niggas with tattoos, big Cuban link chains, big dick energy, toting dracos in the car just for the fuck of it,” Autum kept going.

Moments later, one of her homegirls came into the screen. She took the blunt from Autum, and she blew out some smoke rings.

“ Yeah, ya’ll obviously don’t know my bitch.

Autumn will do a lot of wild shit, but she not fuckin around with no bitch.

Not on that kind of level, she’s not,” her dumb ass friend said as she got on the live.

You could hear the rest of her homegirls in the back egging the shit on, and Autumn was right there, reading through the comments.

“Ya’ll in the comments saying that I’m going to be canceled.

Canceled for what? Because I don’t like pussy, and I’m standing on that?

This the shit that I be talking about in my raps, when I say that the world is too fuckin sensitive.

I’m a real ass bitch. That’s all I know how to be.

Where I come from, we tell shit like it is.

When it comes to the LGBTQ community, I feel like you gotta walk on eggshells with them, man.

Always gotta be mindful of what the fuck you say.

That’s why when labels were reaching out to me, after my videos went viral, I was hesitant to sign that contract because I felt like this industry was going to try and change who I was, and I would have to kiss ass, and watch my mouth to be accepted.

Let me go ahead and get off this live. Ya’ll done pissed me off for the night,” her dumb ass finally found her common sense, and she ended the live video.
