"De'Arra get yo ass up now! You gone be late for your first day of school." My momma said banging on my room door.

"I'm up. I'm up." I said still laying in the bed with my eyes closed.

Next thing you know I hear my door get kicked open and the covers got snatched off me.

"Next it's gone be a pot of cold water." My momma said walking out of my room.

I rolled my eyes stretching and sitting on the side of the bed looking at all of the boxes around my room. My mom had gotten a job offer in Baton Rouge , Louisiana right before my junior year of high school.

"You ready?" My older brother asked standing at my door.

"I guess. Are you?" I asked.

He was attending Southern University and A&M College.

"Hell yea. I can't wait. Louisiana girls be thicker than cheese greets." He said smiling walking away from the door.

I got up stretched and walked into my bathroom looking in the mirror. I had gotten my eye lash extensions done before I left Atlanta and I had gotten my hair done so all I had to do was wash my face and brush my teeth then focus on my edges. I had just began brushing my teeth when my momma said something to me again.

"You don't have all morning De'Arra." My momma said walking past my door.

I quickly walked over to my door closing it softly and locking it. If I would've slammed it she was gone try to argue and ion have time for that this morning. I quickly turned on the shower and got undressed getting in doing my face routine while I was in there to cut down on time.

"My car leaving this house in 30 minutes with or without you." My momma said again.

"Oh lord." I said out loud cutting the shower off and getting out.

I grabbed my big towel and wrapped it around me walking into my closet. I grabbed a blue jean skirt , a white turtle neck , and a tan colored jacket. I paired it with some black boots. Once I finished getting dressed I just did a light makeup beat looking down at my phone. It was 8:15. School started at 8:45. I grabbed my book bag walking downstairs.

"You gone eat?" My momma asked.

"Maybe just an apple." I said grabbing one rinsing it off biting into it.

"You nervous?" She asked.

"Not really. I think I'll be fine." I said grabbing my glasses off the counter putting them in my pocket.

My eyes weren't bad but they weren't good either.

"LETS GO DEANDRE!" My momma said grabbing her car keys opening the front door.

I grabbed my book bag seeing my brother coming down the stairs quickly.

"Let's do this." He said letting me walk in front of him. "You should've chose a different outfit."
