"Do you think we're soul mates?" She asked, lifting her head in order to lock eyes with him.
It took him a moment, mustering up his answer. Thinking about how they were so alike, but so different. How they had been through similar things and had th...

KATALEYA SIMONI BROOKS MONDAY MORNING JANUARY 9th, 2023.
"UHHHH....ZEE? AM I trippin or did my pants shrink like five sizes down." Kataleya stood in front of the full body mirror in her school uniform.
Zahari glanced up, trying to fix her the tie to her uniform, since she always wore the boy version. "Yeah I'm not gone lie, you can't een button dem bitches." Zahari didn't feel the need to lie.
"Damn, I gained that much weight?" Kataleya muttered, sad she would have to redo her whole outfit. It wasn't that big of a deal since it was a uniform, but all her pants were the same size, so she would have to wear a skirt.
"You can borrow a pair of my pants." Zee offered.
"Thank you girl, but your shits are like three sizes too big. You love wearing some over sized shit." Kataleya reminded her, prompting a cackle from Zee.
"Okay, suit yourself then. Be cold wearing a skirt." Zee shot, once she was finished laughing. It was January and their first day back to school from break, so it was still cold outside.
Luckily she would only need to be outside for a few moments.
"And I will hoe, at least imma still look good." Knucks childishly stuck her tongue out, sliding her pants down her legs and walking over to her dresser. "I can't wait to tell bones my ass too fat to fit in my jeans now." She thought out loud.
Zee smiled at her unapologetic mouth. "Y'all too damn close, cause what." She joked, "and that don't mean yo ass fat, that mean that stomach getting big." She continued her line of playful insults.
"Hoe please!" Knucks exclaimed, smiling brightly. "It's his fault anyway, all he do is feed me. If I even think of food he get it." She remarked, which was the full truth of course.
"See now that's a good friend. Why can't you be like that, but wit me." Zahari placed her hand on her chest, to gesture towards her self.
"Girl please, I'm surviving off this lil hustle money from selling these butters." Kataleya rolled her eyes, pulling the blue plaid skirt from her drawer. Easily sliding it up her legs, she took a seat on her bed , grabbing her lotion.
"At least you got a lil side hustle." Zahari shrugged. "Why you getting ready so early anyway," she asked as if she wasn't getting ready too.
It was only around 6:25 and class didn't start for another hour, yet she was almost done getting ready for the day. "Girl, legacy helping me finish my essay for creative writing before class start because I forgot about it over break, and it's a short story about something he can relate too." She explained.
"Aw dats nice, cause me personally? I'm not waking up early to help you do shit. Keep him." Zee threw caution, but Knucks only gave her a knowing look.
"So what you up for." She retorted, because as stated, it was still an hour before school started.
