I love how this story captures a moment of anticipation and describes the exact feeling and emotion of most men in a moment such as this. "Jabari is whimsically enraptured by the breathtaking essence of Meadow, causing him to be speechless at the sight of her gut-punching beauty". Their reluctance out of mutual fear to make the first move, takes many of us back to a times of innocence. Very relatable.

Didn't catch whether or not Carmen knew Jabari was with Meadow when she sent the sexy pic of her in the hoodie, just to disrupt things with the two of them, while they were in bed together.

Great work, Obasi looking forward to your next piece. Beautiful love story.

Beal I appreciate the support and seeing my attempt to highlight what I felt was a crucial part of the film. Carmen was unaware of Jabari's relationship with Meadow at the time she sent the picture, which is why the theme of closure was such a fundamental part of the plot and why Jabari had to finally make it clear that relationship with Carmen was officially over.
