Symere pov
Atlanta Ga
As I slowly woke up from the sound of knocking on my door, my mom came in. I was supposed to be starting 11th grade at a new high school this year. One that I feel is hugely different from my last.
"SYMERE WAKE UP!" my mother yelled from my doorway
"Girl. get up" she said again five minutes later
"Symere, you need to get up, come on you better not be late." she said as she threw a stuffed animal at my head then walked away back to her room
I stayed laying down for 5 more minutes till I heard footsteps coming back towards my room. I immediately got up before my mom opened the door.
"Oh ok, better be up" she said
It was currently 7:15 a.m. and school started at 8:30. The school I was going to had started a few weeks ago so I really was the new girl. I had no friends, nor did I know anybody, and making friends was not an option for me because they usually never last long.
I got out of bed and did all my hygiene, put on my clothes, and went to make my lunch.
My outfit was calm, I wore a pair of baggy light washed jeans, a black tenth series shirt with Greg Heffley in white and the words "tenth series" in white, and my taxi Jordan 12s. For my hair I did it myself as a half up half down boho knotless ponytail with a red bow to match the rest of
the fit.
The closer we got to school I started to panic.
"It's okay Symere, you're gonna be great" my mom told me repeatedly while rubbing my back
We finally had arrived 'Benjamin E Mays high school' was plastered along the entrance. I loved the school's colors they consisted of baby blue, white, and yellow. Their cheerleading team was also cool, I look them up every once in a while, to learn their cheers. I really could not wait
to try out for the team.
As I walked in the front office, I got a paper with all my classes on it. The first one was Honors Chem. I was good at science and i loved it.
There was a nice boy that stood 6ft tall that took me to my class. He was a cute brownskin with braces and he had some chrome heart braids in his hair with a fresh cut.
"My name is Kyro, what's yours?" he asked me as we walked.
I told him my name and a little about me since he asked. We arrived at my class and exchanged numbers so I could text him to meet up after each class.
Once my teacher opened the door all eyes were on me, looking at me from head to toe.
The teacher had me introduce myself then told me to take a seat. I looked around and seen all diverse types of people with totally different personalities. There was one girl staring at me smiling, so I decided to sit next to her.
"Hey Symere, right? My name is Malaysia, but you can call me Layasia" she introduced herself. She was pretty. she was the same height as me, light skin with braces and she had a burgundy 28' wet wavy wig.
We started talking until the bell rang. I was not used to talking to people a lot when I first met them, but she made me feel comfortable enough to talk to her as well as Kyro did.
when class ended I texted Kyro to let him know I was walking with Layasia to my next class since we had every class except lunch together.
Before I knew it two classes went by, and it was my lunch time. I seen they had a lot of vending machines so decided to get me a drink then headed to find me a seat. I received a text from Kyro saying 'come over here' I looked up gazing around the cafeteria trying to see Kyro until I did find him.
He sat at a table with a whole bunch of boys in our grade.
When I walked over all eyes were on me and that had made me nervous which Kyro seen and started a conversation so they would pay attention to something else.
"Hey Symere" he said " this is some of the basketball team" he introduced the boys as
" This is Quay, but we call him Q, Demaris, Kj, Vajie, Cam, Tray, and Ja'taevion but he goes by tae"
I did a little wave to them and sat beside Kyro.
"Ou what you got in your lunch box?" asked Q
"it's just some chicken alfredo I made" I responded
He asked to try some, so I let him, which made all the others ask for some too.
"This junk kinda good Symere. you be cooking?" vajie said digging for more
"Yeah, I do sometimes, it helps clear my mind" I laughed
They all offered to pay me to make them some to bring for them tomorrow.
Lunch soon ended and I started to walk to find Laysia. Before I made it through the door my name was called, I turned around to find the boy whose name I think is Ja'taevion.
"where's your next class?" he asked when he caught up to me
"Gym, what's yours?" I said quietly
"Same thing come on"
On the way to the gym, we passed by a girl and her friends that all gave me a stank face. I for some reason felt embarrassed and I hadn't even done anything.
As I looked over at Ja'taevion he was also looking at the girl but when he did, her face changed from a stank face to a smile.
that was weird...
I got in the gym and went straight over to Laysia who had a shocked look on her face.
"Were you just walking with the Ja'taevion?"
I looked at her with a confused look on my face and replied,
"yeah why?"
She told me that he was the top basketball player at our school, and that he talks to one of the most popular cheerleaders at Mays.
I immediately knew she was talking about the girl from
the hall that gave me the dirty look. I did not mention to her that the situation had happened tho, I just decided to brush it off.
The day was finally over with and Ja'taevion offered to take me home. The car ride was awfully awkward being that i didn't talk much and he didn't know what to say so we sat in silence.
We soon got to my house and as I was getting out, he stopped me and asked for my number. I had not known my number, that well being it was a new number, but he put his in my phone as 'taetae' and told me to text him when I got settled in.
I made my way upstairs and began my shower water so it would be ready for me to get in after I got my clothes.
After I got out of the shower, I decided to head downstairs to make the team their chicken alfredo that they just loved too much. Once that was finished, I headed upstairs to get in the bed and write about my day in my journal while listening to 'Living Room Flow' by Jhene Aiko.
When I was done writing I turned my tv on to the movie 'The Princess and The Frog' and made
my way to sleep.
