Dream before Reality

Meeting LaiYa

As I sat on the broken down bed I nibble on my nails causing them to look uglier & shorter then before. I shook from the cold October night. Hearing a hard slam I jumped causing my heart to beat at a faster rate.. "LaiYa" I could hear my mom squeaky pitch voice I laid down playing sleep I new I didn't want to see her face not tonight.

We stayed in Detroit Michigan I absolutely hate it, I hate the North, I hate the east side of town, I hate the cold, I hate this place once I get out of high school I will never look back I was pulled out my depressing thoughts when my mom bombed rush in

"I know you here me calling" I couldn't even get a word out looking at her uncombed hair, red eyes, & dry skin made me more stress I stretched asking "what time is it"?

She looked at me & walked off. That wasnt normal, normally shell ask for me to comb her hair make small talk or just remind me she loves me. My mom wasn't a super mom but she wasn't bad she did drugs but never brought a man home, I never was beaten raped or force to do something I didnt. I had it bad like no food, no lights here & there but I kept the house clean, dishes wash, clothes washed, & always a hot meal before the food stamps runs out. It was just me & my mom I had uncles & aunties they stayed in the south my mom wasn't close to them they all got separated early foster homes & god parents my mom vowed to never let me go through what she went through physically but I'm definitely going through it mentally. I bent down to check for the time on my old alarm clock it read 3:45am I sighed knowing I only had a few hours before school starts.

I hit the snooze on my alarm using the back of my hand to whipe the sleep from my eyes. Running the shower to a temp I like looking further down the hall seeing my mom all over her bed having the best sleep of her life I close the door washed myself afterwards brushing my pearly straight whites & unwrapping my silk wrap my hair hung shoulder lent it was jet black pretty & healthy. I wore some average blue jeans I was a size 3 and a medium white plain fitted tee I had double dees but no stomach most call me sexy & that was it.. I slid in some black off brand uggs grab my books & headed to the door. Usually my friend Mari which was middle class would pick me up in her 4door little Toyota but she didn't on Mondays so I headed towards school I grab my blue aero jacket and zipped it.

Heading towards Michigan High guys always bugged I always ignored. It started to rain I quickly picked my paste up thinking there's my hair damn. "Ayyy" I could hear a voice but I didn't look back I just kept walking I felt like running. "you need a ride" he was now closer I could see his face I just couldn't believe it, it was Tee asking my basic ass for a ride I was daze by his light complexion, brown eyes, pearly whites, & clean cut. Without saying a word I shook my head "uhh Naw I'm like three blocks away from my school thanks tho" I was thinking damn he look better in person Mari had the biggest crush on him he was a couple ages older then us & rumor has it he's the next biggest thing to scar face. "Get in I want bite plus your hair is getting puffy" I followed his command & sat in his latest camro black on black. The ride was quiet I new once we arrived to the school I was gonna make sure I let him know just to drop me off on the side I didn't want no misunderstanding I new he had hoes I just didn't want problems off someone I haven't even held a conversation with. "Can you pull on the side" he did exactly what I said looking back at him he gave me a slow up & down nodd from that moment I was a victim I got chills, my eyes sparked, I felt a way I never felt.

Walking down the hall I could see Mari waving she was on point her jewelry was matching her blue polo T her leather jacket match her MK bag & her black leather thigh flat boots was hot she was a yella girl stood 5'4 with a boutique shape her hair wasnt long & healthy as mine but she kept Brazilian. As I approach her questions started to fill my head, should I tell her about Tee? I brushed it off

"what's up Mari"

Nothing Laiya did you do your English essay? We were 12grade senior's I couldn't wait until May. I was 2nd in our high school class.

"yeah I did you a copy I new you wasn't gonna have it"

"See Lai that's why you my bitch" we laughed & went our separate ways.

Later that day I often felt myself drift into a zone where i day dream of tee I quickly snapped out of it when the bell was dismissing us school was over my hair was a puffy messy I wore my hood most of the day I squnitched my eyes when I saw tee camaro parked. Is he picking me up? Do he like me? Have he been thinking about me all day too? A small smile appeared "Laiiiii" I could hear Mari saying my name & laughing

"Are u fucking day dreaming about someone Missy'

" Girl No let's go!! I'm hungry food on you "

Mari was headed towards the direction of tee car. My heart felt like it was gonna jump out my chest I started to nibble on my fingers but quickly placed them in my hoodie pocket once I walked pass, giving a glance I see the biggest hoe In the world in his car & standing close her flock Aaliyah Spears I couldn't stand that slut I quickly looked away the way I felt seem like it was shattered in seconds like glass.

"lai you see my man" Mari asked smiling

"Yes & see aaliyah next to em hoe ass" we both started laughing leaving the parking lot.
