Monday Morning
Kyrah's perspective

Last night was mad.

I'm pissed though because Reaps didn't even show up, or Mayhem. They were supposed to show up so the boys could 'sort them out' then we somewhat carry on with our lives. They're the main source of this drama so we figured there would be minimal retaliation after. But no, why would it be that simple? Of course they wouldn't come.

After the library saga we went straight to Zanisha's house, hoping Miles was there with Zanisha. Felicia's a liar by the way, the bando isn't outside London, it's in South. Miles left a few hours before us to check it out. While he did that, we went to meet them, knowing it was probably a trap.

We waited at the house in anticipation, praying Miles would get back. Danielle, Shantae, Justine and Jamal stayed in case they got back before us. After 30 minutes of suspense, Zanisha came through the door and we all cried tears of joy.

Now I can breathe.

Honestly, last night was one of the scariest moments of my life. I thank God for my bros but I'm never doing that again, that could've gone left. And poor Zanisha, who knows what happened to her while she was kidnapped? She didn't even speak when they got in, just cried and cried.

I wanted to stay home with Zanisha today, but then I remembered Felicia. The mandem are gonna deal with the others.

S dropped Shantae and I to school today. He parked the car and waited for Aaron to arrive with Justine. Then him and Aaron walked us to the gate. He was insistent on dropping me to school, even though Miles already planned to, seeing as the girls stayed with Zanisha last night. None of the girls are rolling on their ones anymore.

"Yo." Justine says.

I nod.

Everyone came to school with their hair tied back and no makeup. When we see Felicia it's wraps. I can't believe she snaked us like this. Anyways, let me not talk too much.

"Let's do it in form" Shantae says, screwing.

Justine shakes her head "Not now, after school. Or you man are gonna get suspended again."

I kiss my teeth "I don't care, she put Tasharn in a coma!"

"Word!" Shantae replies.

"Kyrah you sure? Remember Uncle Dan lives in East, if you get sent there it's peak." Justine says.

Right now I'm too angry to care.

I charge into my form room, with the others close behind me. Shantae cracks her knuckles.

Her and Justine pull up chairs as we sit on my usual table. Felicia never misses school for anything, we know she'll come to school.

Before Shantae and Justine can get comfortable, my form tutor tells them to get out.

"Go to your correct forms now! It's registration time!"

Shantae gets in a heated argument with her, as they refuse to leave. But when Miss calls Mr Jerry, she finally leaves with Justine. He threatened to send them home, which they can't do until we pattern Felicia.

I tap my foot on the floor aggressively. Where's this girl?

My jaw clenches as the door swings open and closed, as different people enter the room. My fist tightens each time it opens.
