"girl what i tell you bout leaving this fridge open?" my grandma yelled making me groan and sit up.
"sorry grandma. it was an a-"
"accident." she finished my sentence making me sigh. "i know baby, just please be more careful around the house. im tryna have you graduate before it burns down."
i chuckle as i kiss her on the cheek and put on my shoes.
" well i gotta go to work. see you later grandma. " i say and head out the door.
"now i know you forgetting something" grandma says as i wince and slowly turn around, seeing her waving my car keys in her hand.
"i don't know what I'd do without you." i chuckle as a grab my car keys and hug her. "love you."
"love you too baby. so much." she says hugging me tightly. "now go on and get to work girl."
"bye grandma"
"bye baby."
my mom and dad threw me out when i was just 15, saying i was a "whore" for running away with my boyfriend at the time. he turned out to be extremely abusive and manipulative, and before i knew it , i had no one.
my big sister, keyanna, was away at college, and offered to take me in but my parents forbid her to stay in contact with me. i still stay in touch with her through my grandma though.
after i couldn't stay with my sister, the only person left in my life was my grandma, who i was lucky enough for her to take me in. im now 20, a sophmore in college at UMIAMI, studying pre-med.
its tough carrying the weight of both school and work on my shoulders but, you know, pretty bitches can do it both.
"hey bitchh" symere says as i run up to hug her. symere my 4lifer , we met my first year of college and we work together . since the day we met we've been literally inseparable . that's bestfriend right there 😛
"hey girl . who we dealing with today?" i say as i set down my bag and sit on my cashier stool.
"mr. ianwashmyballsin3weeks and his lil gang boutta check out real soon. you already know they boutta come over here just to start some shit." symere says as we both sigh.
mfs at walmart are different breeds frfr 😭😭
i take out a piece of gum when i feel a hand on my ass. i turn around to see mike (mr. ianwashmyballsin3weeks) smiling down at me with his yellow ass teeth that he claims to be grills.
"wassup witchu adrian." he says as he reaches for a piece of my gum but I swat his hand down.
"what do you want mike." i groan and turn my chair the other way but he turns it back.
"i want you."
"cool." i say, filing down my nails.
"damn shorty what is your problem ?"
"she don't wanna fuck you nigga. stop tryna get some pussy from a female who's obviously not interested. go sit down somewhere." symere said , not taking her eyes off her phone making me laugh.
if y'all don't know, mike been tryna get to me since my first day working here...which was 2 years ago. niggas don't know how to take no for an answer its seriously funny .
"aint nobody ask yo bitch ass anything symere. go take yo broke ass to dollar tree or sum shit." mike said as his homeboys laughed.
"yet im the one with a job. behave or stay in ya place. you're holding up the line." symere said as she started to scan things at the register. mike rolled his eyes as he pulled me towards him by my waist, making me cringe and step back.
"imma talk to you later ma." he said as i smelt the steam from his hot ass breath on my face.
"talk to a toothbrush." i said and started bagging items , making him mug me and leave with his homeboys.
2 hours later
"make sure to power the cashier off." i told symere making her nod as i grabbed my bag and keys
"well im clocking out for the night." i said yawning as i headed for the exit.
"unt uh bitch." symere said as she grabbed her things and walked with me. "we goin out tonight."
"damn symere. is there never a day were you don't wanna go out?" i said as she mugged me.
"not my fault you a homebody." she said making me roll my eyes. "anyways, be ready at 11 so i can pick you up. and don't say no."
"no" i said making her pinch me. "ok dang alright ill go."
"that's my bestie " symere nudged me playfully as we walked to our cars.
"who's so coming tho?" i asked.
"uhh taylor amara and alex boutta be coming with us. there's also boutta be a bunch of people there since dababy supposed to be showing up. " symere answered.
"dababy?"
"yeah, he flew out here cali for a show and decided to throw and after party, so you already know all of miami boutta be there. so dress nice, please. " symere said.
"whatever" i said as i got into my car and turned in the engine.
