Fantasia
I finally made it to school. I was running late; I missed the first period of the day because I didn't have help this morning. My mom and dad had an emergency at work. When I got to school and made it to my second period. With about ten minutes left, the teacher gave me my syllabus and told me where my assigned seat was. There was a beautiful girl also sitting there. I sat down next to her and introduced myself.
"Hi, I'm Fantasia." "Hi" "Can I ask what your name is?" "Taraji" "That's so pretty, what does it mean?" "It means Hope. Can I ask what Fantasia means?" "It's going to sound crazy, but it means a work of art." I could hear her whisper something under her breath, she thought I didn't hear it. I began to blush, she smiled and then turned back and started talking to her friends.
Miss. Scott started to tell us what our homework was, of course, she had to give us homework on the first day back to school. Miss. Scott: Can I have everyone's attention, since it is the first day back, I decided to take it easy on y'all. Your homework/Assignment is to get to know your partner. This will be your partner for the rest of the school year, so I want a full page of all the things you find interesting about them or how your experience was getting to know them. This assignment is due in 2 weeks. AND NO, YOU CAN NOT SWITCH PARTNERS."
I wrote my number and name down on and piece of paper before gathering my things. Once the bell rang, I gave her the piece of paper and told her to text me about the assignment. I walked out before she could say anything, my next class was across campus, and I wanted to talk to my best friend before going to class. I went to my locker and grabbed everything I needed for my next class when Dani came up behind me and scared me.
"So, how was your first day back?" "It was good. I meet this fine ass girl." "Girl, who?" "Her name is Taraji. She is in my Anatomy and Physiology class." "Oh shit." "Is that a good oh shit or bad?" "Both, Taraji is an amazing person, but the drama is always following her. I already know how you are with drama, and what you have going on in your life. I'm not saying you should stay away from her, but as a friend good luck." "What drama? Why is it when I come back there is always some shit."
"Her ex is crazy as hell" "How crazy?" "He just doesn't know how to let go. Every time she is interested in someone, he finds a way to end that. Not hurting anyone of course but telling people that she is and will always be his." "Yeah, I don't have time for that. Plus, I don't even know if she is into girls soooo..."
We both started to head to our next classes when I bumped into someone. "Shit...I am so sorry. I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking" "It's fine." I looked up only to see Taraji. I could not look away her eyes just pulled me in. I snapped out of my thoughts and picked up the books and papers I had dropped some of them Taraji's.
Once I sorted the papers out, I said my goodbyes and proceeded to class. My next class was Music of the World, I love to sing. I have an amazing voice according to most people. The rest of the day was very much a blur, I couldn't get Taraji out of my head.
It was finally time to go home, and I couldn't wait any longer. I had about two hours to myself before I have to go get the twins from day care. Yes, I am a teen mom I have a handsome son and a beautiful daughter. I was with this low-down boy that was no good for me, I was being fast and ended up getting Pregent. Some shit happened and my parents decided it was best to move back to ATL. When I got home it was quiet, I went and ran a bath and relaxed.
30 minutes Later
After my bath and me getting my homework done it was time for me to go get the twins. I grabbed my keys and started to walk toward the door when I got a text from an unknown number.
That conversation didn't go as planned, I didn't mean to hit a nerve or anything i just wanted to let her know what people were saying. Even though I felt some type of way about how the conversation went I still had to suck it up, I left it alone and went about my day.
Should Tasia told to Raji about the conversation or leave it alone?
Okay sooo, I fucked up im soorryyy. Taraji parents are not cops it's the other way around Tasia's Parents are the cops. Taraji's mom is a hairstylist, and her father is a mechanic.
