"Oh my goshhh." I groaned out tiredly & began kicking my feet frantically, before I searched for my phone.

"Hmmm?" I answered the phone already pre-annoyed.

This person calling me had to called more than once—since I always slept with my phone on DND.

"Aye, you got morning voice, Brook. You over there sounding like Pop Smoke & shit." Jahmir laughed out loud & watched my blank look. "It sounded like you was sleep tho— was you?"

"Nope. Just practicing for my funeral." I closed my eyes, speaking sarcastically. "Duh, I was fucking sleep!"

"What do you want, Mir?" I spoke, already on the verge of hanging up.

"Why you sleep witcho phone on DND, luh girl? Youn care about folks lives?"

boy, i barley care bout mines... but continue.

"I just don't like being bothered when I'm sleeping—yet folks still find a way.... Folks like youu!"

"Damnn. Calm down, cuzzo.....Yo ass be wakin' up mad at the world for no reason." He chuckled, as I took a deep sigh—trying to maintain myself.

"Mir, what do you wanttt?" I huffed out a deep breath, I didn't even know I held. "You just woke me up & I'm tired."

"Tell me why—" Mir started talking but I cut him off immediately. "How do you wake up ready to talk, dude? Shut up for a minute."

"Actually, fuck off my phone— Yo lil rude ass." Mir hung up.

I opened my eyes back up & looked at the time on my cellphone seeing that it read 8:50 A.M.

"I honestly dislike humans, dude..... I should've been a tampon or some" I murmured heatedly, because Mir had absolutely no reason to wake me up.

I was probably going to be waking up in another hour—but it's just like damn..... A bitch can't even go to Bella Noches.

I had to stop at Malayah's aunt, Simone, shop today & get situated so that I'd be ready when I made it back from Atlanta.

I got up, then went to my room's bathroom to do my morning hygiene routine—like I did every morning.

I turned my speaker on hearing Rod Wave Ion Wanna Hear It play throughout. I grabbed my toothbrush soaking it in warm water before applying some Colgate toothpaste then wetting it again, starting to brush my teeth.

(y'all this song is so beautiful, i can't stop listening to it. 😣)

"This my third phone number for the month, tryna play me like I'm crazy bitch ian the one." I brushed around in my mouth with the wet toothbrush.

I need some space, can't find no peace when everybody here
Wasn't for the loyalty of my brothers, I'd disappear
Wasn't for the love of my two daughters, I'd leave this Earth
I tried druggin' when I'm thuggin' but that make it worse
