INT. HAZEL AND MAYAS APARTMENT- KITCHEN - DAY
Maya stands in front of the dining room table packing a back and she's talking into her AirPods in full focused mode. Hazel enters the kitchen and walks over to the coffee pot and begins to pour a cup and watches Maya.
MAYA-(on call) This is Maya James....(to Hazel) sorry it's New York fashion week and me and Sterling are in charge of the Icona show and it's insane.....(on the call) No it should be all white tablecloths.
Hazel smiles proudly.
HAZEL- Well Good morning.
MAYA-(on the call) Napkins? Um gold the white will make them pop. Thank you.
Maya ends the call.
HAZEL- My girl is running a fashion week.
Maya tries not to smile.
MAYA- stop it it's not that big a deal.
HAZEL- are you crazy it's a big fucking deal MJ.
Maya gets a huge smile on her face.
MAYA-(V.O) she's right...this is a big deal to me. Fashion week is the most important event in the fashion industry. Buyers get their first look at the fall lines. Kid Maya has already dreamed to go....its still not sinking in for me yet.
Maya phone ring, she answers.
MAYA-(answering) Maya James.
Hazel puts a pancake in Mayas mouth.
HAZEL- I'll pack you a to go plate...make sure you eat.
Maya nods.
MAYA- (on the phone) leave the seating chart to me, I'm on my way.

STERLING- Women have gave me a lot of gifts....never a plant thought.
Ryan laughs.
RYAN- she's totally your girlfriend man.
