I sat on the couch waiting for almost an hour now. It was already 9:48, and Jayden said he'd pick me up at 8:00. I sighed, upset with myself that I'd waited this long this time. "Typical Jay. He stood me up, again. " I said to no one in particular. Everyone had plans tonight, just like I thought I had. So I was home alone. I cut off the tv and all the lights downstairs and headed upstairs to my room.
My name is Mya Jhene Grier, I'm 18 years old, I'm about 5'4, mixed, with long curly hair. I was born in Dallas but my family moved to Atlanta when I was 7. As soon I moved here, I met my best friend, Jazmine. We're still best friends til this day, even though she totally hates Jayden. Jayden DeMari Simms, 6'5, 18 years old, brownskin with dreads, basketball star, and my not so compassionate but lovable boyfriend. We've been together since we we're freshman. Jay isn't perfect, but I love him.
I decided to call him one last time before giving up on tonight. The phone rang 3 times before he finally picked up.
J: "Wassup?"
M: "Jay? Where are you ? I thought you were gonna pick me up at 8:00?"
J:"Yeah, about that. something came up, my bad babe. I'll just come through tomorrow, aight? "
M:"Fine, I'll see you tomorrow. Love you."
J:"Yeah "
He hung up. It didn't bother me that he didn't say "I love you " back, I'm used to it. Crazy that I am, but I'm just immune to most of the things he does.... or doesn't do.
I layed back on my bed and logged into instagram. I scrolled for a minute, liking some pics, and then I came across Tiyanna's page. She just a girl from the cheerleading squad I'm on at school. She's having a party, but I decided not to go. Well, Jay and I had plans so I couldn't. She just posted a selfie of majority of the people at the party, using a selfie stick. I looked over the pic to see if I could spot people I knew. and I came across one face I knew all too well-
Jayden's.
