LaTona, a widow, met James Barkley on a trip to Airville with her son, Segun. James and LaTona struck a relationship that led to their being married. LaTona relocated to Airville to join James with her son, and James introduced them to his best friend, Justin Robertson. Justin introduced the Barkleys to his family, but his wife, June, was not enthusiastic about them because of LaTona and her son. To June's displeasure, June's children, Sheryl and Adrian, became friends with Segun, but the more she tried to discourage them, the more they bonded with Segun. One day during the summer vacation, Adrian and Segun went for a bike ride and decided to sit by the lake at the park. In an attempt to walk on a plank, Adrian fell into the lake, drowned, and died later. June got angry, blamed Segun for her son's death, and with the help of a false witness, got Segun charged with manslaughter, for which Segun spent two years in confinement. On Segun's release, June found out that Sheryl and Segun were lovers, and that infuriated her the more, and she vowed to get Segun locked up for good. Through nefarious means, she was able to separate Sheryl and Segun. Through his crisis, Segun found love in Vicentina, who helped him put his life together again. Unfortunately, June managed to get the police detective working on the case on her side, and seeing what Vicentina's uncle intended to do for Segun, the officer decided to destroy Segun's image, creating mistrust for Segun and breaking his relationship with Vicentina. Seeking evidence against Segun for violating a court order, June lost her life tragically. With Vicnetina out of his life, Segun struggled and, in the end, restored his relationship with Sheryl while helping take care of Justin, who had a stroke after the death of June.
