8:30 am my son is being stubborn my house is a mess I'm not ready at all oh and my first class at UCLA so happens to just start at 9 oh AND IT'S A HALF AN HOUR DRIVE THERE and I have to drive ten minutes in the opposite direction first to take my son to pre k so I'm doing just fine.
"ky hurry up please" I basically cry out. "I'm nearly done mommy wait" he says as he eats one captain crunch at a time. "Kyrie hurry up and I'm going upstairs." i say as I hesitate to turn away from my 3 year old.
You should always stay with your kid whilst they eat especially when there really young but I have no choice and he's only eating soggy captain crunch. I run upstairs quickly doing some light make up throwing my hair Into a side parting and throwing the first outfit in my closet on.
I run downstairs car keys in hand. "KYRIE GET IN THE CAR NOW" I yell in a stern voice and my toddler comes running he had a black shirt on red shorts and black and red jordans. I strap him in his car seat and I hop in the front before starting to drive to his pre-k and he babbles the whole way there.Dropping him off before doing a u turn a speed all the way to UCLA. I grab my timetable and the map of the campus out of the boot of my car before rushing around and finding the class room. Opening the door to the class room my professor doesn't stop teaching and instead just gives me an annoyed glance along with a few other students putting my head down I walk to the back of the room where a girl sat by herself.
I pull out all my equipment before making notes on Whatever was on the board . "Your new right, freshman." i look over at the blonde girls who was now looking at me. "um yeah I'm layla." i say awkwardly. "hi I'm Claire I'm a sophomore do you live in campus." i shake my head. "no I um live 30 minutes south from here."
She gives me a nod. "wait I think I know what house your on about the light green house on brook lane." she says and I nod. "that's the one." she smiles. "do you know when lunch is." i asks not seeing the break on my timetable. "yeah all freshman and sophomores have lunch at 11 so after this course I can show you around campus if you like." i shake my head. "no that's OK thanks though" She gives me a polite smile before concentrating back on our professor.
After class I made my way around the campus before spotting the cafeteria and it was quite full I expected people to go off and eat outside or something like in movies. "layla hi." i turn around to see the same blonde girl from class. "um hi." i say before turning and paying for the orange juice I bought.
"would you like to sit with me." not really no your a bit weird. "um n-" She grabs my arm. "come on were right over here." she pulls me all the way to the back where the table was full. "guys Id like you to meet someone layla this is Kyle, Jackson, Emma and Elijah." Elijah in guessing takes his gaze away from his phone and his eyes land on mine and surprise surprise Elijah was my Elijah the boy who left three years ago whilst I was pregnant with his son without a goodbye.
I choked up but swallowed the huge lump in my throat as I rip my eyes from his stare. "hi I'm um I'm Layla I'm new" I say awkwardly I here some mumble 'heys' before I was dragged down onto a seat.
My mind goes blank as it thinks about Elijah how long was he in military school before he left and decided not to text me or come back how long has he been in UCLA for why didn't he come back why didn't he come back to me?
"Layla can we do it at yours" I was interrupted. "hm what" I look around to see everyone had gotten up including Elijah who was still looking at me dumbfounded.
"perfect we'll be there at 8" claire says with a smile before running off Emma I think gives me a smiles before following her the boys leave aswell.
After college and picking up Kyrie from daycare I rushed home and it was about 5. I was about to have a meltdown when I saw the state of my son my house and me. I put on some music as I cooked me and Kyrie some food luckily he ate it quickly unlike this morning. I turn off the music turning on mickey mouse and let him watch it whilst I change into some scruffy clothes that I can clean in.
I start cleaning whilst playing music when I realised that Kyrie needs to go to bed and he was drifting to sleep on the couch. I sigh before picking my son up and taking him upstairs. I normally give him a bath but hes to sleepy and it's to late. I struggle to take his clothes off but I get them off before putting his little in the night garden pj's on I put him on his bed before tucking him in.
I turn his nightlight on before turning his light off and stars illuminate his room. I smile before closing the door and start cleaning the house. It was finally spotless and didn't look like a 19 and 3 year old lived in it.
Just as I sit down the door bell rang I opened the door and gasp as I see Claire Emma Kyle Jackson and Elijah. "omg I completely fucking forgot Im so sorry." I look behind me before hesitating to fully open the door. "uh c-come in."
