Things were looking up in my professional life and because of that, Monday was a little more focused. The better part of the day was spent consulting with my new and only client, Trey DeWitt. Humphrey had recommended me to his boss, while he was interviewing event planners for an upcoming charity dinner. He was hosting an affair to raise money for his arts education program for inner-city children and it was a privilege for me to cut my teeth on a juicy New York project. His mailing list included movie stars, singers, producers, and reality show celebs. When I realized the magnitude of the event, I was almost overwhelmed. Then I reminded myself I was more than capable to accomplish the deed with aplomb. I decided it would be the vehicle to launch another branch of the business, while the little voice in my head reminded me of how well Michael would have done with that opportunity.
Trey nixed just about everything I suggested for a theme, but I was undaunted. From my five years’ experience in the business, I was sure something would strike his fancy. He didn’t want a cocktail party or a formal sit-down dinner. He rejected my idea for a benefit concert and that one, I thought he’d really go for. In a last ditch effort, I presented him with my portfolio, which always included details and photographs of my projects.
“Well, I see something I like a whole lot,” he said with a sly grin, tapping his finger on a page of the large book.

While looking at pictures of the reggae festival, when there were tents erected and lots of people, he claimed that was the atmosphere he was trying to capture. He wanted a carnival.
“Who is this fine ass brother right here?” He was still tapping the book. And he was pointing at Michael.
“Oh. That’s Michael Franklin, my partner and best friend.” “Girl, if I were Mr. Pearson, I don’t think I’d like you spending too much time with this one here. He is gorgeous.” “Trey, you better behave yourself.”
“Why the hell would I do that?”
Armed with contacts and information from the reggae festival, I immediately went into action, since I only had three weeks including the planning stage and actual event. I called several bands asking them to send proposals, contacted party rental businesses with the same instructions and set up the rest of my day to put business in order.
It was almost seven o’clock in the evening, when I came up for air. That’s when I realized I hadn’t heard from Humphrey all day. I called the gallery, got the voice mail and found it strange that he had the cell phone turned off. Usually, he was easily accessible, but it seemed he’d disappeared. To pass the time, I organized my notes and pictures in a new binder and
