Gilbert Bolden III walks along a grassy knoll outdoors in New York City on a sunny day. He wears a black blazer, large white T-shirt, and black mini-skirt. He looks over his right shoulder and carries a hot-pink bag in his left hans. A large high-rise building looms in the background.

Tess Lane poses in a white t-shirt, black denim jacket, blue jeans, and light gray sneakers. She leans against a blue gray wooden plank wall holding onto the edge of a plank above her. Her arms are held upward on diagonals. She wears black, round sunglasses and her hair topples over her shoulders in waves as she looks to the right. Her torso leans slightly to the left to counterbalance her outstretched right leg, held a la seconde hip level with her foot pointed. Her left leg supports her on a diagonal as she leans off balance. A black leather backpack hangs on a metal bar to her left by a single strap.
