I skim the room as I wait for my friend Josefina. We have an important day at work and I did not want to be late. "Jose get your fat ass down here!" I shout, pulling my iPhone out of my pocket. I scroll through the latest Facebook newsfeed not caring that auntie Jamie just made pork for the first time or that my cousin just had her like 7th kid, or the million birthday reminders I get on my notification center every fucking day.
"Skylar, I don't mind being fashionably late!" Jose stumbles into the room, holding a cigar between her dainty fingers, puffing smoke from her scarlet lips.
"How many times have I told you Jose not to smoke around me. I can't stand the smell, and you know my parents." I say waving the smoke away from me. Josefina lets out a laugh and places a hand on her hip.
"Your just jealous you can't be a rebel like me, chicken!"
"At least I'm not a dope head from narcotics street." I hiss back. Jose ignores me flipping her black hair from shoulder to shoulder. Letting out a grunt she grabs her keys and trudges out the door. This is going to be a long day I say to myself as I follow Jose out the door hoping for a better future.
