Location:
San Francisco, California
Four Seasons Hotel
The scene opens up outside the Four Seasons Hotel, outside London and Dana are shown standing by the entrance.
Dana: I don't think this was a good idea to begin with.
London: I need answers.
Dana: You both do, but Brooklyn is at the peak of her career, I mean she is being noticed and I just don't want her to feel pressure from this man.
London turns and looks at Dana.
London: Did you she tell you anything about my father?
Dana: Not really, I just know she isn't to fond of your father.
London: Things may have happened in her past, but I feel like she should address them so she can move forward in the future. I know my sister puts on this strong woman personality and that's fine, she is independent and is she strong, but there are things she is scared to face and I think this is one of those major issues.
Dana: I never said it was a bad idea, I just never knew it to happen so soon.
The scene fades to black.
20 Minutes Later.
The scene opens up outside a couple blocks away from the hotel, Brooklyn stood in the ocean water, watching the waves, with a lot on her mind, she pulls the shades down to cover her eyes, reached in her bra, she pulls out her favorite white lighter, with two flicks, she places the dutch between her lips.

She blows the smoke out in the open water and smiles.

I can't believe how nervous I am, it wasn't really my personality to let someone intimidate or make me feel uncomfortable, but that's exactly how my father made me felt. In the back of my mind Jerome Carter is dead, he should of been dead, the last I heard of him he was dead, some freak accident dealing with a car and some drugs.
Well that's the story that was presented to me. But I wasn't Daddy's Little Girl, I never really was proud to say I was his daughter and the fact that I have to live with his last name made it worst, but I feel like I brought class and respect to the Carter name. If I wasn't to do it then who would, nothing against my younger brother but he's still young, trying to figure out life on his own.
I only agreed to meet with my father because I knew it would make London happy, and one thing I don't like is fighting with my brother, especially if the fight can be prevented. But I also felt bad because I hid the true feelings towards my father, from my brother. I always thought it would hurt him, maybe more then it would hurt me and I never wanted him to get caught up in that drama, he was so innocent and he had his own issues he had to deal with growing up.
His Sexuality?!?
My father never was a huge fan of my brother, the two barely got along. But what made the whole thing weird is that my father never forced my brothers to play sports or participate in manly activities, my brother was always the first one to sign up for sports whether it was basketball, soccer, hell even golf.
But my father always knew my brother was different, and he never wanted to admit it, til this day my brother has came out to basically everyone in the family and I'm pretty sure my father still won't admit it. Brooklyn makes her way back towards the sand, she ashes the dutch and slides it behind her ear, reaching in her bra again, she pulls her iPhone.Dana: Brook?
Hold On.
Brooklyn brushes her phone against the dry fabric of her bra, then places the phone to her ear.Brooklyn: I got some water on my phone, my fault.
Dana: Where are you?
Brooklyn: [Pauses] I'm only down the street, it took my, maybe 10 minutes to walk her.
Dana: I have an appointment set up with, wait [Pulls Phone Away From Ear] ...I can't remember his name, hold on again. [Pauses] Okay, I got it. His name is Devon and he owns this gym down on Jeremy Blvd, I think you should check it out.
Brooklyn: I need to.
Dana: How are you feeling today?
Brooklyn: It's just so much on my mind right now and I don't think I can focus, I mean I have to meet my father in the next hour or so, and then I have a freaking tag match this week against the woman I almost defeated and I just can't take the pressure.
Dana: Are you smoking?
Brooklyn: Yes.
Dana: Out in public BROOKLYN! This is San Francisco okay, you do not want any cases in a state you do not reside in, nor do you visit as much.
Brooklyn: I'm stressed.
Dana: It's natural to be stressed, but smoking out in public is not going to make this situation any better. I'm shocked Security hasn't bum rushed your ass yet.
Brooklyn laughs.Dana made it clear that she wanted me prepared for this match, she wanted to make sure my body was ready, my mind was ready, and she only wanted the best for me. Dana and I both come from similar backgrounds, so she understands the pressure and the stress that I'm feeling right now.
The match against Misty was a shock to me, I didn't expect for it to play out that way, I'm not tooting my own horn but I had that match in the bag, I should of walked out victorious, but I didn't, instead we both got a double count out and it ended up being split right down the middle.
That doesn't settle for me, I don't share wins and I definitely don't share titles. Misty was lucky enough to escape my wrath last week, but this week is a totally different story. I have nothing against Misty, I think she is one of the toughest competitors I have the pleasure of facing, but her time has come and gone and its my turn to hold what rightfully belongs to me.
I guess I shouldn't talk to much sh*t, since my tag team partner this week so happens to be the Bombshell Champion, I have no words for Kittie right now, I don't even want to think about the fact that I am forced to tag with this woman, I have nothing against her, but I don't know how she will feel once she looses her championship to me.
In this business I don't look for to many partnerships or friends, because in reality everyone is out to fight for themselves. Kittie and I may act fake towards each other during this match because I wouldn't mind adding another win to my belt, but once I'm done beating Misty and Raynin, then my next focus will be the current Bombshell Champion and honestly I don't know how Kittie feels about that.
I've seem some of her matches and I know how whole wrestling style, so I'll make sure I'm 100% ready for this match coming.Dana: This match is pretty important, if your able to defeat Misty this week, then I'm sure you'll get a shot at the Bombshell Championship real soon, so your focus should definitely be on that.
Brooklyn: I really have no drama or anger towards Misty, we both put on a good show in our last match and I'm honored to be facing her again, but I have to get her out of my way, I have to prove the fans and everyone around me that I have what It takes to be a dominant female force in this industry.
Dana: You do.
Brooklyn: I just hope I won't let my outside life make me loose focus, because this is so important to me.
Really important.Dana: Hurry up back to the hotel, get dressed and let's go see your father. Once that's finished, then you can close that chapter in your life and focus on building your empire and really making a name for yourself.
She was right, SCW was my main focus right now and I wasn't going to let my father ruin my parade, my happiness, my life. It took me so many years to finally open up and come to terms with my body, and with my life period. He made me feel so ashamed and so ugly at times that it was hard for me to really live my life, but right now I'm doing everything I've always wanted to do and I definitely wasn't going to let him stop me. The scene fades.2 1/2 Hours Later.London: Are you nervous?
The scene opens up with London and Brooklyn sitting outside a restaurant, Brooklyn reaches in her purse pulling out a small mirror, she looks at her face in the mirror, brushing away tears that were forming under her eyes, she looks up at London and nods her head.Brooklyn: I'm more angry then nervous, but I'm only here because you wanted me to be here.
London: I appreciate it more then you know.
I knew this would make London happy, he couldn't stop talking about it the whole trip to San Francisco, but I knew it would help him understand a little more about the family and what really happened to us.
It made no sense to me because for years I always thought my parents were deceased, that they were gone. There was no contact, no I love you's or apologies, it was more of a FUCK YOU and BYE and in the back of my mind I just knew I would never see them again.
This whole experience made me nervous, but I knew I needed this.BROOKLYN?Brooklyn turns, and there stood her father, her mouth wide open, but speechless. London jumps up from the table embracing his father, Brooklyn stared her father up and down, no movement, she stood there with a look on her face as if she seen a ghost.Jerome: Sweetie?
Jerome extends his hand, but Brooklyn knocks it away. She grabs her purses and iPhone off the table and slams the chair underneath, she turns and looks at Brandon and then back at her father as she walks off towards the intersection.Jerome: BROOKLYN SWEETIE, PLEASE WAIT!
Brooklyn ignores her fathers cries as she continues to walk towards the parking garage, the scene fades to black.
