It Ain't Black And White

Cora.

"Ready?" "Excited let's do this" opening the front door to the house, we both walked in.
"Holy..your mom and dad be setting the entire place up" looking around, Shania is right. Television, couches, side table for our keys and shit, coffee table. Walking through, there was a dining table with chairs. Continuing to the kitchen, I had a look through everything. Seeing we had a fridge, I opened it. Nothing in that one. Opening the freezer, it was full of meat and other things. "damn your mom and dad have filled it" "sweet" Shania laughed "let's go check the other rooms" walking back out, I had a look in the laundry. "Shit we got everything" "looking that way. Better be big beds" I chuckled "only one way to find out" walking down the hall way, I looked around. "Five doors?" Opening the first, it was a bedroom "ay not bad this one" "I agree" walking to the next, it was basically the same size and same as the last room. Three bed house, geez.
Opening the bathroom door, my eyes went wide "they surely did some renovations" "move it" I chuckled.
Brand new square head shower with a hand held as well, bath tub, basin and towel radiator "fuck I be given your mom a damn kiss for this" I chuckled "yep" "guessing the last be the toilet" opening the door, I nodded. "Yep".
"So we moving in this afternoon?" I laughed "we should go speak to your mom and we have to look at schools for you and I" "alright let's go do that".
Locking up the house, Shania and I walked back to aneles.

"So?" Shania and I grinned "we be moving out now" anele laughed "you be staying at least one more night" "yeah we are. We really need to search up some schools for our courses" "well hop to it" "let's go" I laughed as Shania grabbed my arm pulling me to the office.
"Which one we checking out?" "The one closest to us first" "alright" "argh, I really be hoping both of us can learn there" "your course only be twenty one months" "what?" "Haven't you looked into it?" "No" I chuckled "how long is yours?" "Three to four years" "holy shit" "yep".
"Ay this one be saying, I can do my course there" "that's awesome now move it" Shania laughed.
"Oi what are you two doing?" "Searching our courses up" "already?" "Well yeah boy, we be getting shit ready. Found yourself anything?" "Nah not yet".
"Oh no this ain't good Shania" "what?" "I'm joking ya. We be going to school together" "show me" showing Shania the course, she jumped at me making all of us laugh "MOMMA WE BE GOING TO SCHOOL TOGETHER" hearing anele laugh, when she walked in she had a massive grin on her face. "you can both go to the same one?" "Yeah momma and it's close to our house" "which house?" "The one we moving in to" anele grinned "alright let me know about the cost" "anele I can.." "nah ya be keeping that money to ya damn self. If you two be moving tomorrow, you best be starting to pack" Shania grinned "more like I be starting to pack, my girl ain't got much here" "I will be researching my licence" "bye now" I chuckled.
"Your licence?" I nodded at anele. "One of us be needing a car for shopping etcetera" "good point. Don't be getting lazy" "never".
Hmm where can I do my licence around here?. Finding the place, I looked at my maps. Ay it ain't too far. Turning the computer off, I left the office.
"Anele I be going for a run. I'm going to go book my licence" "girl you be needing lessons" I grinned "I can drive" "since when?" "Since I was taught" "straight answer. Alright be safe. See you soon" "you will".
Leaving the house, I put my ear pods in and pressed play. I love running, I havent been doing much lately. Following the maps when I arrived, I removed my ear pods and walked in.
Grabbing a ticket, I just waited.
"Number thirty five" ay that's me.
Standing up, I walked to the counter.
"What can I do for you?" "I'd like to sit my licence test" "ID" grabbing out my ID, I gave it to the lady "cora Phillips" "that's me" "alright cora. We have nothing available until Friday. Does Friday suit you?" "Yes, what time?" "Nine in the morning" "I can be here" "good, I will book you in. You can pay now or on the day" "on the day is fine thanks" "alright cora, here is all the information you will need" "thank you, I will see you on Friday" "have a good week" "you too". Putting everything in my pockets, I walked out then grabbed my ear pods again. Hmm maybe I can look at some cars. I won't be needing anything too extravagant but just something to get me around. Searching up some car places, my phone rang.
"Hey mom" "cora what are you doing?" "I just booked my licence and now I'm searching up places for a car to get me around. I can walk everywhere but I need something for shopping" "you will. There's a place on coral road, that's where I got my car from and they aren't too expensive" "alright I will research how to get there and have a look" "okay. I will let you go" "oh Shania said she will kiss you for that house" mom laughed "I will hold her to that. Bye cora" "bye mom".
Taking a run again, hearing someone call out my name, I stopped and looked around.
"Oh hey" "girl haven't we told ya to stop running around on ya own" "be needing to get places" "what ya doing?" "Checked out the new place, new school, booked my licence and now I be going to look at a car" "damn cappuccino you be busy" "trying to get some shit sorted while I have the time" "don't be leaving us behind" "never unless you can't run because I got to" the girls laughed "go on girl, we be catching up soon" "yeah we be" "bye" running off, the girls laughed.

"Hi. what do you want?" "To look at some cars. What's it look like" "damn kids and their bullshit" "I will take my business elsewhere then" walking away the guy spoke "there be only one other woman that's white who has come here. Emily Walters" "yeah that be my mom. She sent me here but I'm just a damn kid right?" The man smirked "come through, I will show you around" rolling my eyes, i then followed the guy out. "Anything you want?" "Just a car to get me from a to b" "alright nothing too expensive I be guessing?" "Nah it be sitting a lot of the time" the man nodded.
"We be having a Camry here. Not too expensive, not too uptown either" I grinned "id like to have a look" "alright".
Looking at the car, it ain't bad. I don't be needing anything too fancy. "How much?" "Ten" "nine" the guy laughed "your mom was the same. When do you want it?" "If I pass my license on Friday, I want it then" "I be holding it til Friday, you come back, it's yours. It will be having a service that morning so it's sound" "I appreciate it. Thanks..ahh.." the guy laughed "Ramses" "thanks Ramses. I will hopefully see you Friday".

"Cora how did you go?" "Licence is booked and if I pass, I will be going back to the car joint and picking up a car" "have you had a look?" "Yeah I have. Found a Camry there. I don't need anything fancy" "when is your licence booked for?" "Friday" anele grinned "girl you be going places" "do you know how this scholarship thing works?" "You tell the principal and he will sort it" I nodded "alright, well I know where I am going and the course. I guess I better go tell him" "Shania will need to give me the details for her course too but none of them will start until at least January" I nodded "now I have to find something to do for four months" "party" I chuckled "who knew a parent would say that. Where is Shania?" "She be in her room packing" I grinned "might be a lot more peaceful around here with out her" "and you" "yeah. Speaking of that, I have to purchase a stereo too" anele laughed "blocking each other out huh?" "I'm thinking I might need it" anele laughed "maybe, I ain't heard nothing but never be having a boy in her room" "that you know of" winking at anele she smirked "trust me, I be knowing everything in this place. She ain't been sneaking people in her room, I do be knowing she has been in your room a few nights though" "yeah she has".
