nightmare~
Running through long, dark hallways as a dark figure chased me, I felt my breathing become heavier and shallower as my lungs burned. I twisted and turned corners, trying to escape the darkness behind me. Looking back, seeing it get closer, I screamed as tears blurred my vision before feeling something cold splash over my body. I jumped out of bed from the same nightmare I had for the past week, feeling my body drenched in cold water.  I glanced towards the edge of my twin bed, seeing my mother standing there with a dead look in her

"Get your ass up and get ready for school; I don't have time for this shit, Cyrene." She glared at me with a mug before leaving my room and slamming the door behind her. Her voice, that was once filled with warmth, now felt like ice piercing through me.
Rolling my eyes and huffing, I got up, pushed my hair out of my face, and glanced at the clock, seeing it read 6:30. The room was dim, with only a sliver of dawn peeking through the curtains. Sighing, I walked to the bathroom, flipped the lights on, and squinted at the bright lights, the stark contrast to the darkness of my nightmare. Oh, sorry, where are my manners? Hey, I'm Daomi Cyrene Miller, and that woman who walked out was my mother, Jaliyah Lani Miller. As you can see, she and I don't have the best relationship. After my dad randomly vanished one day, everything went downhill from there. She has been way worse she felt like being nice today we have had a good relationship before my dad went missing but that no longer exists every since i was 10 anways im 17 years old my birthday is next month on the 1 im the only child ill be happy as hell when i get out of the shit show getting beat and abuse for something that wasn't my fault is bad enough but i push through it as long as i have my best friend thats okay with me. I snapped out of my thoughts upon hearing my mom scream my name. Not wanting her to come up here again, I stripped out of my clothes and stepped into the shower, hoping the warm water would wash away the remnants of my nightmare and the cold reality of my morning.

10 minutes later~

I stepped out of the shower grabbing my dry towel wrapping it around my body before leaving out of the bathroom seeing something move fast out my peripheral vision. I turned my head towards that way not seeing anything, shrugging it off i start off by drying my whole body before grabbing some lavender body oil opening it and rub it all over my body closing it up wiping my hands off from the oil i went to my dresser grabbing some panties and matching bra slipping them on. looking over at the clock reading 7:20 i hurried up and threw on my clothes which consisted in just some baggy sweat pants and a random hoodie before putting some socks on alone with my slides. i rushed around the room grabbing everything that i need picking up my phone and airpods leaving out the room going downstairs hearing the tv on glancing in the living room seeing my mom with a cigarette to her lips i frown my face up and shook my head before ignoring her leaving out the house completely shivering when the cold air hit my face i stepped off the porch steps making my way to the bus stop blowing out a breathing watching as the mist leaves my mouth sitting down on the beach turning my phone on connecting my air pods to them clicking on my music app hitting shuffle and stuff my hands in my pockets waiting for the bus as my mind drifts back to the nightmare that i had i wonder what that was all about it felt so real but not at the same time was god trying to tell me something i hope not maybe ill ask my best friend she into that spiritual stuff growing up into all that with living with her grandparents. i wonder who my grandparents are? all i have know was my mom and dad before he went missing my mom told me she her parents stop talking to her when she end up pregnant with me which i mean i can understand she was young and so was my dad but wouldn't they want to get to meet me.? Huffing out a breath, snapping out of my thoughts, I heard the bus approaching. I stood up behind this tall figure, seeing long wavy hair and smelling a very intoxicating scent. I breathed in deeply and sighed out softly before getting on the bus. I headed to a random seat and sat down. I got on my phone to pass the time and leaned back, bobbing my head to the music playing through my AirPods.

5 mins~

I got off the bus and walked to the school grounds, slipping through the gates, jogging to the front of the school building, and going inside, pushing my hood off my head. Seeing that the hallways were now empty, I went to my locker, pushing my book bag up more on my shoulder and putting in my combination. Opening the door to my locker, I pushed my book bag in there, taking out the stuff that I needed before slamming the door closed and walking off to my first class.

I walked into the classroom silently, feeling everybody's eyes on me, before hearing the teacher, Mrs. Thomas, talk. "Daomi, you're late again! Take a seat, please. Ask one of your classmates for the assignment because I'm not repeating myself." I groaned silently and walked over to my seat, sitting down and slouching in my seat, scanning the room before putting my head down and closing my eyes, dozing off to sleep.
