"The Other Side of Tomorrow" follows the lives of Cherish and Johnu, friends whose love for each other is incredibly strong and enduring.

The characters meet during their teenage years and attend a Miles Davis concert on their first date. Their love and friendship blossoms. They take a trip with their friends, Sunman and Desire. While in the pool, they discuss their relationship and Johnu questions his return to Howard University. Cherish promises to stand by him no matter what happens. In 1975, Johnu plays the piano in the same club which was host to his and Cherish's first date. His performance is broadcast on New York City's premier jazz station. Eventually, religion begins to cause problems between the two, and Johnu writes a letter to Cherish to preserve their relationship. From the letter, they find a new level of understanding. The two move on with their lives, Cherish having children and Johnu marrying Ketous. As the work concludes, Cherish and Johnu meet again and agree that the happiest time in their lives was the time that they spent together.

The "Other Side of Tomorrow" renders the tale of the ties that bind two souls together in lasting friendship.
