The afternoon is quiet. Anthony drives toward Shayla’s house, wondering what has been happening in her life.
He parks outside, gets out of the car, and walks toward the front door.
Anthony knocks. After a few seconds, Shayla opens the door.
Anthony immediately notices that something is wrong.
Shayla looks at Anthony but struggles to answer.
Shayla looks down and slowly lets him inside.
Shayla sits down in the living room while Anthony sits across from her.
A long silence fills the room before Shayla finally speaks.
Shayla explains that Iman treated her badly and made her feel as though she didn’t matter.
Shayla continues explaining everything that happened between them.
Anthony’s expression becomes serious.
Shayla wipes her eyes and looks away.
Anthony stands up. He is clearly upset by what he has heard.
Suddenly, a car door closes outside.
Shayla looks toward the window.
The front door opens. Iman walks inside and immediately notices Anthony.
Iman becomes defensive.
The tension between the two men begins to rise.
Iman shrugs, showing little concern.
Iman looks toward Shayla but refuses to apologize.
Anthony watches Iman closely.
Iman begins making disrespectful comments about Shayla.
Anthony’s expression changes immediately.
Shayla steps between them.
But neither man is willing to back down.
The argument becomes heated.
Anthony and Iman stand face-to-face while Shayla desperately tries to calm them down.
The situation escalates and the two men briefly struggle with each other.
Shayla steps away and pleads with them to stop.
Anthony and Iman separate.
Both men are angry, but Anthony keeps his focus on what started the confrontation.
Iman heads toward the door.
Before leaving, he turns around and looks directly at Anthony.
Iman shakes his head.
Iman opens the door.
The door closes behind him.
The house becomes quiet again.
Anthony turns toward Shayla and sees how emotionally exhausted she is.
Shayla takes a deep breath.
Suddenly, Anthony’s phone rings.
Anthony looks at the screen.
His expression changes.
Anthony answers the call.
Anthony listens silently.
His face becomes serious.
He slowly lowers the phone.
Anthony looks toward the front door.
Shayla looks frightened.
Outside, a vehicle slowly passes the house.
Shayla looks toward the window.
Anthony carefully looks outside.
The street appears quiet.
Then Anthony’s phone receives a new message.
Anthony opens it.
His expression suddenly freezes.
Shayla notices Anthony’s expression.
Anthony slowly looks up.
Anthony suddenly stops talking.
The screen of his phone goes dark.
Then—
KNOCK.
A loud knock echoes through the house.
Shayla freezes.
Anthony slowly turns toward the front door.
Another knock.
Neither of them moves.
Then a voice comes from the other side of the door.
Anthony recognizes the voice immediately.
Shayla looks at Anthony in shock.
Anthony slowly reaches toward the door.
The scene cuts to black before he opens it.
