"Ughhh" I groaned as the sound of my alarm goes off for 6:30 A.M. , time for class. I shift in my bed for another second until my alarm sounds AGAIN. "SHUT THE FUCK UPPP!" I yelled out of anger to my phone. Yeah it's definitely medicine time. I finally sit up and grab my phone from the nightstand to my left, I unplug the charger and turn off my alarm.
I get out of my bed putting my phone back down on the nightstand so I can make my bed. Once that's done I head to my connected bathroom. I run my shower as I use the bathroom then strip from my clothes to get in.
30 minutes later I get out the shower and brush my teeth once i'm done with that I do my skincare. After about 10 minutes on that I'm finally out of the bathroom completely. Once i'm back in my room I take all my lotions and stuff out that i'm going to use this morning.
I lotion my body then put on my undergarments and white nike socks. I put on a black cropped tee and some light washed, baggy jeans. After i'm done getting dressed I go back to pick up my phone to check the time and see it was 7:43.
"Ugh, lemme hurry up." I sat down at my vanity and take my wig out my bonnet and take out the supplies to do my edges. After five minutes of doing my edges I finish and spray my Sol de Jenero 62 perfume.
I get up after spraying my body with a load of perfume and start cleaning up my station, once done I put my lotions and stuff back. Then I slide on my GR3YSCALE new balances.
I pack my school tote holding my mannequin heads and my Ysl bag. Once I sling both of those over my shoulders I make sure I have everything then head to my kitchen. I got my pill bottle down from the cabinet and shook out my two for today.
I went to my fridge getting two water bottles and some applesauce from the fridge. I grabbed my things and went out the door locking it behind me.
~~~
I arrived at hairschool 15 minutes later checking the time seeing it was 8:18 am. Since I didn't have to be in there till 8:30, I sat in my car and ate my applesauce and drunk some of my water.
I could always go out and get food before or after my classes so I wasn't pressed on food or nothing plus ion really eat in the morning anyway.
I scrolled on tiktok for the ten minutes remaining before I had to head inside.
~~~ After class⤵️
I was bout to be at Chick-fil-A to get some food because that class be wearing me out. But I pulled up to one of the drive through people to order my food.
"Hi welcome to Chick-fil-A, what can I get for you today?" A white female asked me.
"Hi um, can I get a twelve count nugget meal with fruit punch and Polynesian sauce. Two of those please." I asked ordering a second one for my bestfriend Ciera.
"Yes ma'am, will that be all for you today?" She asked. "Mhm." I nodded my head.
"Okay that'll be $20.76 please." She said. I got my purse from the passenger seat and pulled out my card and handed it to her.
"Thank you, have a good one." She said giving me my card back.
"Thanks, you too." I said with a tight lip smile on my face. I drove up to the window part as they soon came by with my food.
As soon as the lady handed me my food and told me to have a good day, I thanked her and said the same and pulled off making the 10 minute drive back to my apartment complex. Once I pulled up there I grabbed everything and got out my car. I walked in the direction of my apartment building locking the doors to my car as I did so.
I walked to the area where the elevator was and pressed the button and almost just as soon as I did so the doors opened. I walked in hitting my floor which was the fourth. Once it stopped at my floor I walked off walking the short distance to my apartment door.
Once I walked in, I was met with the sound of my living room tv playing letting my know my bestfriend was here. I locked the door behind me and took my shoes off at the door putting them on the shelf nice and neatly and putting my keys in the bowl. Then I walked into my kitchen placing the food on the counter and walking off to my room.
I got in my room and placed my bags on my bed and stripped from my clothes. I went to my closet and picked out some grey sweats and a cropped wife beater. I picked my clothes up off the floor and went back to my closet to put them in the hamper making a mental note to do the laundry.
I put everything thing else up where it was supposed to be and grabbed my phone off my bed leaving out the room. When I walked back into the living room I was actually greeted this time
"OH MY GOSH! Heyyy girlll!!!" she started.
I laughed, "Heyyy!" I said returning her energy.
"No but i really didn't hear you come in what the fuck."
"That's how you know that tv was too loud."
"Uhh not too much miss." She said rolling her eyes.
"And how you letting youself into MY apartment." I said walking towards the kitchen to get our food knowing exactly how.
"Bitch, you know how!" She said stifling a laugh with the "bitch".
I grabbed the food off the island and walked back towards the couch as we looked at each other and bust out laughing.
"Hoe you funny!" She said in the mist of laughter.
"Never been one of those and that's you." I said handing her her food as the laughing died down.
"OUUU! Chick-fil-AAA! No you did notttt!" She gasped holding her chest being all extra.
I rolled my eyes, "Bitch just take the fucking food foe I go feed it to the homeless."
She hurried up and grabbed it as we started laughing again.
"Sooo," I started. "You done talked to dat nigga quan?"
"Girl HELL NO! That bitch ass nigga threatened me with his fucking sister." She said as she rolled her eyes starting to eat.
"Wait the one who— YES! The one who got her ass beat by Lauren."
"Nah that's bout crazy as fuck!" I bust out laughing cus what...
"Mhm that's what I said but he just keep on insisting that that hoe gone do sum to me. I had told him to bring her where I stay and the nigga started stuttering and shit making up excuses why he can't so..." She had shrugged her shoulders.
"Mm, mm, mm. Even if he asked her she probably woulda been like 'nawh nigga you on yo own wit dis one'." I said using her funny ass accent. Her wanna be nigga but still fight bitches head ass.
"And ion even know why he tried it he know dat girl look up to me." She added laughing a bit at my previous statement.
"Well enough about that lame ass nigga what's the moves for tonight?" She asked looking at me.
"Uhh bitch what moves..? Look at the timeee."
"Hoe don't play dumb I been letting you slide for awhile now with that 'I don't wanna go out and be with people' shit. Look I get it, your antisocial as fuck but I miss my bestie. We used to have so much fun together and you be acting like I don't know how you is. I would never do nothing to you that wouldn't benefit you and a lil bit of me for the best."
I sighed knowing she was right I did need to go out more and not just be cooped up all the time. I looked down at my apple watch to check the time to see it was about to be 4 soon.
"Alright fine, we can go out."
"AHHH! YES BITCH I KNEW MY SPEECH WOULD WORK ALL YALL HOES LAME!!!!" She Yelled twerking in her seat as I laughed.
