I wake up to my cat meowing in my ear. Who needs a clock when you have Paco, the worlds best alarm. She's still a young little kitty. My big homie Erick got her for me.
I pet her light grey and dark grey fur. She purrs as I gently run my hand along her back. She nuzzles up next to me on my pillow. I smile at her and look at my clock; 6:16 AM. Why am I up so early on a Saturday? I should be sleeping. But, usually when I'm up like this it's because I need to handle something or something is on my mind. I try and figure out what both could be.
I reach under my pillow and grab my phone. I unlock it and go to my notifications. No new calls, no new texts, no mentions or messages on twitter. I check my Facebook and see status' from my home girls. I laugh at some and shake my head at the others. Then I see the one that I've been waiting for.
Alex Romero: Why the fuck is she trippin over me like this. Bitch I don't want you.
I roll my eyes. You wanted me when that slut wasn't the fuckin new girl. I exit out of Facebook and turn around on my bed. I face my cat and play with her tiny feet. She's 8 months old and has all the energy on earth in the afternoon. Morning time is when she takes her 'cat naps'. Just like her mommy, me ^.^ . I close my eyes and fall back asleep.
I wake up again, this time though, it's not because my cat was purring in my ear. My younger brother was blastin music in my room. I open my eyes just enough to see where this lil nigga was standing. I grab my red slipper and throw it at his head. I have perfect aim; he rubs the side of his head.
"What was that for?" he asks me.
I look at him like he's stupid. "Nigga you came in blastin YG like its a fuckin function I'm my room."
I lay back down and hope that when leaves he closes the door behind him. He walks out my room and doesn't close the door. I roll my eyes.
"Thanks Anthony!" I yell as I get up and close my door. I make my way back to my bed and get a notification on my phone. I lean down to read it.
ReynaLove:* - Let's do something today.
I shrug and reply. Why not, I'm not doin shit anyway.
RainyRaee - Mmaky, what you planning?
ReynaLove:* - Idk whatever. Let's hit up the mall.
RainyRaee - Aight pick me up here at 2.
ReynaLove:* - Aight.
I put my phone back down on my bed and put my hands on my hips, looking in my mirror. I surprisingly felt beautiful. People would tell me that often but I never believed them. But now, now I truly feel like I'm more than pretty.
I walk to my closet and pick out my clothes. It was gonna be hot today so I grabbed my favorite ripped high waisted shorts and my black Tupac tank top. I then went into my drawer and looked for a red bandeau. Shit, It must be in the dirty clothes. I sigh and take out my red bra and the matching red and black panties.
I grab my clothes, walk out my room, and go down the hall to my bathroom. I see my older brother Eli walking from the living room into the hall. We both make eye contact and race to the bathroom. I think I'm I'm the lead until he runs inside an slams the door. I continue to the door and bang on it.
"Eli open the fuckin door! I'm not playin with yo bitch ass!" I yell. Thank god my mom's not here or she would beat my ass for that kind of language.
He opens the door and walks out laughing. I sock him on the arm and push him out the way so I can take my shower. I lock the door behind me and get in. I wash myself and my hair, dry off, and then start to style my hair. I blow dry it first, then I get out my hot pink curling wand and style my hair in loose ringlet curls. I tease my hair with my fingers and then get dressed. I look at my self in the mirror and smile.
