"Jahzara come down here and have breakfast" My mama said coughing.
" Ok mama" I yelled.
I live in Kenya, Its really hot here and me and my family don't have much.
" Man ek het jou gesê( I told you ) We needz da money for food jasan" My mama yelled at my dad.
" Cht I tried don't bother me irriterende teef( annoying girl)" My dad said.
" eh whats you callz me eh eh disrespectful Moenie daardie woord hier sê nie ( Dont say that word here ) My mama yelled.
I covered my brothers ears so they won't hear the yelling. I ate my breakfast and rushed my sibilings out of the house. " Ok mama and dad just planning a suprise oki they dont argue" I explained to my sibilings.
" Now go to school bai" I yelled while they ran in the building.
I walked to my friend house to walk to school with her.
" hey is Sanya here" I asked. " Who are you" Sanya's dad said.
" Im Jahzara" I answered. Sanya's dad looked at me from up to down.
I was wearing a white shirt with little spots of dirt on it and a black skirt with dirty socs and broken shoes.
" Sanya someone is here for you" Her father yelled. Sanya ran down the stairs in her house as i saw from the inside.
" Why are you hanging out with a peasent" I heard sayna's dad whisphere.
I then made a frown as I waited until sanya and her dad was done talking.
The whole walk sanya was telling me about how her weekand was.
" You see and look at my ring I got to" She said. " mhm" I mumbled as she continued.
We arrived at the school. It had white and tan colors with black doors. My parents only could get me in a public school.
As I walked in I saw people crowding my locker. I ran over there and saw a note " Poor girl, parents got no money" I ripped the note and ran to the bathroom.13 minutes later
I walked out of the bathroom and whiped my face then I noticed someone open a stall and when I looked in the mirror in was a boy.
" Ahhhhh get out" I yelled. " This is the boys bathroom" Lante said.
Lante was this really cute boy I liked well all girls like him.
" Oh it is ok so like lets make a deal you don't tell no one about this and will leave" I said
" What if I don't agree with this deal of yours" he said laughing and coming closer to me.
" wait hold on why you moving closer" I said while I was walking back. I stop at the wall and look over at Lante.
" your really short you know that" he said.
" I am not now move" I said as I ran out of the bathroom to class.
As class starts Lante comes in. " Why are you late" Ms. Badica asked.
I put my head down praying he wont say my name.
" I was speaking to the princable" he said.
I sighed with relef as he walked to his desk and winked at me.
" Alright everyone today please get out your books and turn to page 876"After school
" Eh waits na shortie where you headed" Lante asked.
" Eh Im going home why?" I answered and asked.
" Oh ill walk you home" He said.
" Oh no-" I said trying to finish my sentence but suddently sanya said yes.
" lets go" She yelled." So like are you dating anyone" Sanya asked.
" Eh no im not" He said nervously.
