I woke up in a good mood. I got up right away, because I have to take care of my grandma. My grandma has early dementia. Her dementia hasn't progressed. She just have trouble with remembering certain things.
Every morning, I take her bath and cook for her. Everyday she just do crossword puzzles, watch Dr.Phil, and clean. I love taking care of my grandma . When I'm at school, I have someone look after her.
Right now, college is out . I don't go back to school till next month. I'm trying to find a better apartment for my grandma . I want her to live somewhere that she can sit out on the porch and sit. My neighborhood isn't friendly.
I work 24/7 to make sure my grandma and I are straight. I work at Forever21 and I'm a social media influencer. I get paid to post on social media. I'm a brand ambassador for Fenty and Pretty Little Thing.
For my age, I'm really successful . It gets hard maintaining college and my jobs. I know this is the path I want to go, so I'm not giving up .
I got up out my bed and made my way to my grandma room . She was sitting up , watching Dr.Phil. "Hey grams" . She looked up smiling.
"Hey darling, how did you sleep"
"I slept good, what about you"
"I couldn't get much sleep because my back was hurting"
"Do you want to go to the doctor"? I asked her. Because of her having dementia, I don't want to miss signs of sickness. The doctors caught my grandma's diagnosis early, so I'm grateful for that. I just want to make sure that I don't miss nothing .
"I'm fine darling" . I just believed her word. If something is wrong with her, I know she will tell me .
"Let's get you in the tub" . She grabbed my hand as she tried to get out the bed. We headed to her bathroom . I ran the water, while she took her clothes off. "You can get in now" .
She stepped in the tub . I started bathing her . "So where you been lately, you never sleep at home anymore"
"I've been sleeping over my friend girl house lately"
"Who is this special woman"?
"We not together grams, but her name is Vadah"
"That's a beautiful name, when do I meet her" ?
I never brought a female around my family. I never gotten the change to be called girlfriend . Every relationship I have even in, we just end up having sex. After having sex, it never goes well. I never been in a real relationship.
Vadah and I started with a date and then sex. I wanted to wait till we was together to have sex . I wanted to start over with Vadah. I wanted to experience something different from her. Everytime we are together, we have sex .
