Get It Together

Chapter 6

Anela Tayvon

I decided on doing some self care this morning. I turned on my music and got to work. I love my maintenance days it's really a highlight of my week.

I think I wanna do my skin care last. I set the mood and got started.

2 hours later I'm just starting on my skin care. I can't wait to use these organic Aloe eyepatches. I've been switching to natural products lately and my skin is thriving.

I washed off my homemade clay mask and started steaming my face again before I iced it. It seems crazy but it works for me . After 5 minutes I rolled the ice cubes all around my face and neck.

My phone started to ring and it was Chris.

"What?" I'm already bored of the conversation. He literally asks the same things that's why I hardly answer.

"Look, you said it was a party and I need to know if she's going to be there I have unfinished business with her" I rolled my eyes at him. "Get a life Chris" I said as I hung up. He is so damn thirsty.

Honestly, when we first met I wasn't feeling her. I voiced to everyone in the beginning that she was into Kenji and the fact that she knew that I liked him was disrespectful. It wasn't just me, Everyone thought they liked each other too so I wasn't alone.

But now that time has passed on I guess I'm delusional and making stuff up. Their relationship isn't romantic not one bit. It's odd but not romantic. Besides I know now that she literally wouldn't mess with him she has a boyfriend, the guy from the gas station. Apparently he's some dude from the hood they call him "Kash" I don't know his real name because that's clearly a street name. I heard his friends call him that and found him on instagram from there. He has her in his highlights.

I finished up and got in the bed until they asked me if I wanted to go the beach. I told them yeah but I needed to take a nap first and then we can leave.

30 minutes later I was getting ready with Tahir and Jasney to go hit the beach.

Apparently school starts back on the second week of August and we know how fast summer flies so we are having our party the last day of July which would be our last day at the Bnb.

We got a text in the group chat from Lani letting us know that she wasn't coming until the last day. I seen Tahirs mood shift a little but he shook it off. We all liked the message and kept it pushing.

I was so happy the clothes I got online came right on time. I have clothes but it seems outdated considering it's summer.

I spent a few hours finding outfits and bikinis to wear even a few outfits for school. Have to stay on it.

Everyone has pretty much been doing their own thing this summer.

I called Kenji to see what he was doing. He said he didn't want to come so he's been in his room for hours.

He didn't answer he hung it up on the first ring and sent me a text saying "I'm busy right now but I'll call you back".

That was weird but okay then. We walked out to the patio to get to the beach. It's so beautiful here.

None of us planned to swim in the ocean honestly we just wanted to walk around, take pictures, and enjoy the scene. We're going to sit in the Jacuzzi when we get back. We know better than to go into the ocean. The water can't come above the ankle for us. We respect the ocean and everything living in it so we always chose not to be all in the water like other people.

"Let's build a sand castle" Messiah said scaring the shit out of us. "Where did you come from" he wasn't even in the house when we woke up this morning.
