Track 02: Red Light, Green Light
The second story in our summer shorts series, Red Light, Green Light, brings us back to a neighborhood that hasn’t changed much— except for the people returning to it. It’s a story about coming home, picking up where you left off, and playing old games with new intentions.
Set in a block that still smells like BBQ and good memories, this short follows a summer reconnection between childhood friends who once shared a kiss and haven’t quite forgotten what it meant.
Read the second story. Listen to the audio. Play the playlist. And stay In Rotation. This is love, the long way ‘round.

Track 01: Brown Sugar Hours
A slow-blooming crush. Corded headphones. A coffee order that turns into something more.
Naima didn’t plan to notice him. But then again, he didn’t plan to stay this long.
Read the first story in In Rotation: The Love Series. It’s tender, intentional, and full of quiet heat.

Summer has a Soundtrack
