I woke up early so I can go to school today on time as usual. Although I don't want to go, I have to because I'm a Senior and I play sports so it's a requirement for me to go to school. Plus I didn't want to mess up my attendance record. Going to my room I lock the door before finding my school clothes. Pulling out my uniform I lay it on my bed wanting to add something to it. Grabbing my baby blue Nike hoodie and Rockstar Originals belt, I nod in approval of my choices. Slipping on my underwear, I moisturize my body and put on deodorant so I can hurry up for today. Slipping on my uniform shirt and my pants, I then put on my hoodie. Walking to my dresser I pull out my socks sliding them on. Slipping on my Jordan 4  Retro 'University Blue's', I then spray on some cologne for the day.

I walk back into the bathroom looking at my hair. I grab my brush brushing my fresh haircut. Grabbing a scrunchie I put my hair into a bun. It's a hassle having a lot of hair but my mom helps anyway she can. My momma usually braids my hair but I didn't feel like hurting this time or sitting long hours. As I got older I realized I liked my features whether people didn't like it or not because I did. I'm proud of who I am and how I look now. My mom also let me get a nose piercing and tongue piercing a while ago and I don't regret it. Well she didn't really let me, my motto is do first regret later. Putting on my earrings I head to my room to grab my things.

I look at my pill bottle on my dresser debating if I wanna take them. Shaking my head I reach to grab the bottle feeling my hands shake with every inch. Breathing heavily I grab the bottle cracking it open taking two of the small pills. Dry. Grabbing my bag and thermos I head downstairs for breakfast.

I smile seeing my mom and brother laughing together. My mom is black and my dad is Dominican. Growing up it was great having both cultures in one person. Or should I say two? Technically.

"Hey baby, you took your medicine?" I nod making her stare at me. I start to feel nervous when she looks at me like that. I don't like it when she stares at me. Even when I'm not lying she's still staring at me. "Mhmm. Don't make me find out you lying. And did you talk to your Mexican ass daddy?" I snicker hearing her talk about my dad. They go back and forth like an old married couple. "Yeah, yesterday. Hey baby bro, how you feel about school today?" He sighs loudly while I laugh at his dramatics. Very overdramatic.

"I don't wanna go Mar. But my girlfriend Ashley is there so yeah." I furrow my eyebrows. How he get a girlfriend before me?! I'm older!

"Better go sit yo' small tail down. You ain't got no girlfriend." I laugh seeing him glare at my mom. She bucks at him making him flinch.

"Naww. You caught me off guard! But anywho I'm hungry so hurry up." She stares at him making him look the other way with a scratch to his hand. He looks out of the side of his eye seeing her roll her eyes.

"Damnnnn. How you get a girlfriend before me lil' nigga?" He shakes his head with a devious smirk.

"Maybe because you're tall and skinny? Women like men with a little belly. And you have train tracks in your big mouth. Then you have those scribbles on your arms so they most likely find you unattractive." He shrugs pulling his shirt up showing his little beer belly. I mug him seeing him look so unbothered by what he said with a shrug to follow. Bad ass.
