Guest & Jamal Lyon. They have been best friends for a while. Jamal started falling for her a years ago. She’s 22.

Jamal is the second son to Lucious Lyon and cookie Lyon.

She doesn’t have the best relationship with his eldest brother Andre. At first she did until, she almost drowned as a child. Lucious blamed Andre even though he’s the one who saved her.Lucious never treated him the same after that.

He somehow became an ass not only to her but her other brothers as well. But mainly her. The things he would say & do. Turned her off from him to the point where when she’s talking to him she almost always have an attitude.

Andre was book smart & bipolar. That’s why his father let him manage a few things at empire. He went to college got a degree.

Jamal loves her. He’s the brother she has the healthiest relationship with. Jamal is very affectionate and attentive towards her. He’s gay (Or so she thought) , & she loves & support him regardless. Lucious hates that. & for that he’s one of the neglected. Jamal is an amazing singer. But his father won’t even give him the chance. Guest loves jamal & supports him. & the same vice versa.. He’s the brother she never had. She has the healthiest relationship with him. He is very affectionate & attentive towards her. He’s loving towards her.

Last but not least the youngest Hakeem Lyon, He’s more of the childish hotheaded brother. Spoiled even. They have a good relationship as well but on & off at times.

Lucious was now with a woman named anika. Lucious stopped seeing cookie when she was locked up. Hell he even hid the letters Jamal would “send” to his mother or so he thought. So cookie never got the letters.

All of the boys are protective in their own way. Surprisingly even Andre but he won’t ever show it.

Now 18 years later.Cookie lyon she was just released from prison.

Like I what was said earlier Jamal is gay. Well obviously until he started falling for her.

While they’re there, his family began to see his subtle not so subtle glances & touches. She doesn’t think anything of it again she was sure he was gay(he wasn’t attracted to any woman ever). So it wasn’t a big deal to her that he was a bit touchy. ……… He told her how he feels, he explains how this is new to him & he’s never been into women until he just started falling for her. How he never thought of coochie. It’s lowkey confusing him. She tells him she’s confused that he’s confused

even though she hasn’t been with her sons and husband for 18 years. cookie Lyon loved Jamal regardless of him being gay. Because she was under the impression that he was gay, but so was the rest of the family including Lucious

Guest was considered a family friend, has been friends with Jamal for years. They practically grew up together. Cookie even knew about the girl. Lucious saw her as a daughter.

So I guess you could say Jamal has always loved her. It only just grew. The others lowkey sees it specifically Lucious. The way Jamal eyes and touch linger on her. This man doesn’t like that Jamal is gay btw.

jamal and Guestarrived 10 minutes late no big deal

Theyre having dinner at Lucious’s estate in the dining room. Lucious called them over for dinner. Cookie shows up uninvited looking for them.
