K Michelle's Can't Raise A Man was blasting through my speakers as I rushed around my room trying to find an outfit to wear for the day it is 75 degrees here in Atlanta and I'm not trynna be up in the house all day listening to my mom complain about certain things in the house that need to be cleaned.

"Hey you almost done in there?" My older sister Ashley asked as she pounded on my bedroom door.

"Yeah just trynna find the perfect outfit!" I yelled back as I settled on a simple white V neck tee and some pink shorts.

I opened the door to see her wearing a similar outfit but in grey.

"Did you ask mom yet?" I asked nervously

"Yeah she said we can go but we gotta be back before the street lights come on and that includes the bus ride. Here's your bus fare and she also gave me money so we can rent skates and get food." She replied handing me my bus pass and showing me the $50 our mom gave her

"Ok cool come on lets go I don't wanna be late." I said walking past her and out the door

"When are you ever on time?" She asked rolling her eyes

I ignored her comment and walked into the living room where our mom was sitting on the couch flipping through channels.

"Bye ma." I waved eager to get out the door

"Aye keep ya'll phones on and Ashley watch out for your sister, I said before the street lights come on!" She yelled after us as we opened the door and jetted outside.

It's Spring Break and all the kids from our high school always go to the skating rink on the North side the first day it's kind of a tradition. Ashley and I both go to the same school I'm 15 and she's 3 years older than me. We have the same mom but not the same dad. From what mom told us her dad was in the military but he died while at war, they were high school sweethearts stayed together through college got married and had Ashley they were very much in love. After he died mom went into a state of depression while she was grieving she met my daddy in grief counseling they healed each other and ended up having a one night stand when she found out she was pregnant he told her he wasn't read for a child being that he just lost his wife so he went ghost and skipped town she never saw him again. Growing up I always wonder how different by life would be if my dad was around but now that I'm older I don't think about it as much.

Ashely and I walked over to the bus stop and waited we talked about school and what we planned to do for the rest of Spring Break. 40 minutes later we got off the bus and headed towards the skating rink.

We saw kids from our school some we recognized and some we didn't as well as kids from other schools. Some were getting dropped off by their parents while others were just standing around talking to each other. We walked over to the line and stood behind a group of girl's that go to our school.

"Hey ya'll here to skate too?" One of the girl's asked

"Duh if they're standing in line." One of her friends said sucking her teeth

"Haha nah it's cool yeah we just came to get out of the house really mom's was bugging." Ashley said rolling her eyes

"Facts I know that feeling." The first girl replied

After they paid for their skates they grabbed them and walked to the side to put them on, we were next in line.

"Can I get 2 skates please both sizes 6 1/2?" I asked standing on my tippy toes to peer over the counter.
