Meeting with Leah

After Lin came out of the stall.

Immediately, Ricky spoke his mind. 

--Lin, holy shit! That was awesome. That shit is gonna blow up the charts! Ricky said confidently. 

-- Give me an hour, and I'll get all the tracks together. Said Ricky.

------

About an hour later. Ricky, being the master of his craft, did the work quickly and efficiently, which resulted in an hour later, all three songs were ready. 

--Everything is ready. You know, we may be making history, opening a new chapter in the history of music. In honor of that, I won't charge you any money. But we'll have to work more than once in the future. said Ricky smiling. 

--I hear you, Ricky. Thank you. I hope we will work more productively in the future. said Lin shaking hands brotherly. 

This was the beginning of a legendary collaboration that would make a big noise in the rap industry in the future. But that would be later. Right now, Lin had important business to attend to. 

-- Now it's just a matter of shooting the video and releasing the songs. said Lin. 

--I regret arguing with you. --Said Mark, exhaling. 

--Don't feel bad. said Lin laughing. 

------

After a few minutes Lin and Mark said goodbye to Ricky and drove away. On the street there were guys with guns and cars waiting for them, including Ferrari and Bugatti supercars. 

--Let's start filming. said Lin to the crowd. 

Everyone got into the cars and started to drive out. A drone was launched into the sky and started filming.

A few shots of racing, flexing on cars and guns, and the clip was ready.After finishing the clip Lin was taken home where he went straight to bed.When he got home it was already 4 am.

November 6, 2010.

The next day

Lin woke up around 2 o'clock in the afternoon. After a good night's rest, a cold shower and a good meal, he started to think about what to do next. 

--I have an EP ready. I just need a manager to put it on the net," thought Lin. 

--That's right. Mark said he knew just the right person to call.

Lin said with an epiphany. 

He immediately picked up the phone and started calling Mark. 

------

After a few minutes, Mark picked up the phone. 

--What's up, Mark. How are you? -Lin asked. 

--Hi. I'm good. How are you? 

-Same. -Look, you said you knew someone to be my manager. Can you introduce us today? Lin asked. 

--I can. Come to the cafe, I'll send you the address. I'll introduce you two there. Mark said. 

--Okay. I'm on my way.

-----

He quickly changed his clothes, ordered a cab and went to the cafe. After getting there quickly, Lin went inside. Cafe looked nice and cozy.Inside Lin saw Mark and a girl he didn't know.

Sitting down across from them, he said hello. 

--Hello again, Mark. Is this the girl? 

--I'll introduce you. Lin this is Elia, Elia this is Lin. I was talking about her. Mark introduced her. 

-- Nice to meet you, Elia. 

--Nice to meet you too, Lin. 

--Elia graduated from university with a degree in management. She's good in the industry. She's trustworthy, we've known each other for a long time. You can discuss all the details, I have some work to do. See you later.

Mark said goodbye. 

-----

After Mark left, Lin and Elia started chatting. 

--Elia, I think Mark told you that I'm looking for a manager who knows his business.Your duties will include dealing with the media, planning my schedule, negotiating with labels, streaming services and concert organizers and so on, I think you know everything. I'm not earning much now but I can promise you 10% of the profits in the future. If you agree, let's sign the contract. Lin said it straightforward. 

--I agree, when the contract is ready I will sign it right away. If that's all, I have to go. Elia said indifferently as she prepared to leave. 

At first glance Lin could tell that Elia's character was cold and to melt it he decided to try to get closer to her. 

--Wait. In honor of our cooperation, let me buy you a drink. 

--Thank you for the offer, but I'll decline. 

--I insist. We'll be working together in the future and we need to get to know each other. --Lin persuaded her. 

After some hesitation, Elia gave in and agreed. They called the waiter and ordered. 

-Then I'll have a juice and the most expensive steak, please. This man's treating tonight. Elia said with a little smile. 

--Bring a bottle of wine and the same steak. 

Seeing her smile, Lin seemed to hit his heart. No wonder, because Elia was a beauty with brown hair as green as spring grass. 

--Order whatever you want. If I can see your angelic smile, I'll treat you every day. Lin teased her. 

--You say those words to every girl you see for the first time?!" said Elia, a little embarrassed. 

--Not every you first. And by the way, do you mind if I call you Leah? --Said Lin. 

--No, I don't mind. And stop teasing me. Leah tried to calm down. 

A few minutes later, their orders arrived and they dined for hours.

-----

After they finished eating, they went outside. The time was about 6:00 p.m. After walking around a bit, Lin said. 

--Would you like to come to my place and hear what you're working with? 

--Are you trying to take advantage of me like that?

Leah replied suspiciously.

--What if I am? --Seriously said Lin. 

Leah was shocked by his answer and just stared at him. Their gazes crossed and sparks could be seen.

Slowly Lin came close to Leah until he had her against the wall. His breath

His breath was blowing in her face.The air was tense.In the heat of the moment they moved closer together and began to kiss.Lin's arms began to wander around Leah's waist.Her arms wrapped around his back.They stood like that for a few minutes until they began to pant.When they pulled away from each other they breathed heavily. 

--*Sigh*, *Sigh*. Are you ready to come to me now? Breathing heavily, Lin asked. 

-- Mm. -- Leah agreed silently.
