Calabassas , Californiafirst day .... again
Rakim was laying in his one single bed room , with an iPhone 14 in his hand scrolling through tiktoks which had caught his attention instead of cleaning the room he was in .
" knock knock Rak- uhm Mister Davidson you were supposed to clean your room about two hours ago? Give me that ! " Rakim laid out his hands whilst his eyes aim at Miss James who looked back at him or gave the same energy .
" you think you can sit here all day not doing anything but stay on toktik... NO! Clean this room then maybe you'll get it back ... if not say bye bye ". Rakim flicks off Miss James from the back as she finally left the room with his phone in her hand .
" blah blah blah meh meh shut up bitch " he uttered picking up the finished snacks up off the floor next to his bed . Once he was done the room finally looked tidy and it was soon time for dinner .
Rakim peeped outside of his room seeing other people run downstairs with excitement , " over some mid ass food come on now " he complained until realizing someone heard him but fortunately for him , he didn't give a shit .
" alright where's Rakim ? RAKIM ! There you are this will be your last time coming down here late "
Rakim noticed two people chuckling and constantly poking fun at him , but he decided to not care . " yes ma'am " his voice brought out a little attitude before sat down with a plate of casserole in front of him .
"Amen !!" everyone had prayed before munching down on some casseroles except for Rakim who took a sip of cold Coca Cola in his hand .
One of the other teens Jaylen looks over snatching the plate from him , " the fuck is wrong with you dumbass bitch " Rakim yells resulting in him and Jaylen approaching each other .
" you too in your rooms RIGHT NOW ! And Rakim we need to talk after " Rakim couldn't believe she was still coming at him more than Jaylen , he got up aggressively pushing the chair before stopping his way upstairs to his room .
He started throwing down his chair and a table before laying back on his bed , his nose flaring with huge anger ... he breathes heavily with vexation hearing the door open .
" Rakim first pick up those things and then we can talk " he stood up quietly putting back the chair and the tank where it had belong .
He laid back on his bed turning on the other side , " now what ever happened between you and Jaylen ? You guys have been quarreling for the longest " Miss James reveled her concern for the two before Rakim could even respond .
" tell him to stop messing with me ! I feel like he's obsessed with me ! And it's creepy " Rakim turned his head to other side trying his best to not shed a tear in front of Miss James .
" okay listen you're just gonna have to do your best and ignore him .... You know act like he was never here okay ! And dont try pushing down stuff " she closes the door for the last time , Rakim shifted to the other side angrily turning on the tv that was standing in front of him , few inches away .
There was about only one days left until he would start his senior year and half of him was feeling ecstatic while the other half wasn't as he didn't want to deal with the loud noises, teachers doing too much and also crowded areas.
