Kaori M. Simmons
It was 7:30am and I was going to be late for school. None of my siblings woke me up. They always do this to me. They get up and go without even thinking about me.
"KAORI YOU GONNA BE LATE", I hear my mother yell from downstairs. All I could do was groan. I'm still halfway sleep and she yelling. My sister Danielle came into my room since she's always late to school.
"Cmon girl, we only have like 18 more minutes before school starts", She said to me. I'm trying to rush and do everything I can. I can't wait to graduate man.
"I'm trying, I'm sleepy man", I say putting all my things in my book bag. Some mornings, my mom would bring us back some donuts. They are mainly chocolate and pink with sprinkles.
I like glaze donuts. I can eat it, it's just not my favorite. I go downstairs and get two donuts before leaving out the house.
I get into the passenger seat of my sister Audi. I need a car like real bad. She drives a little reckless and I really don't feel safe being with her at times. Anytime I tell her I'm nervous or you need to slow down.
She always saying I'm being dramatic when I'm fearing my life with you.

Finally out of school. I have a whole biology project that's due in two days, a 100 math question study guide that's due tomorrow, and a slide show for my agriculture class. When I say I'm about to tweak, I mean it.
I don't even know which one to start on first and it's driving me crazy. I work on the math study guide first to get it out the way since it is due tomorrow.
I'm trying to concentrate but I hear loud ass laughing coming from downstairs. I'm really bout to scream and yell at this point.
I go downstairs to see who it was. It was Danielle, my other older sister Alexis, and their friends. "Can y'all please stop being loud, I'm trying to do some work and I can't concentrate with y'all yelling", I say to them.
One of them bitches rolled their eyes at me for asking if they could keep it down. She's the one I don't like and can't stand. "Why you tripping about it", one the dudes ask me. How is asking them calmly to keep it down because I need to do my work "tripping".
"How is that tripping? I'm asking y'all to keep it down because I have work to do. If you don't like it then go outside and do all of that", I respond walking back upstairs.
"Wait Kaori come here", Alexis call out to me. I just need to finish my work. I go to the second to the end of the staircase and just wait until she say something. "Momma said she's gonna be back home at 11", Alexis says as she now waving me away. I just wanna hurt her sometimes.
I go back to my room to try and finish my work.

I've been on this study guide for 2 hours now. It is 5:45pm and I'm mad tired. This is just way too much to be doing like why?
I hear a knock on my door. Danielle walks in with out me saying come in. "I ain't say come in yet", I said looking at her.
"I didn't ask, momma needs you to babysit", Daniele said. Okay I like kids and all but I have work man. I told this momma right after school.
"Okay, who is it." I ask her. She shrugged her shoulders.
"I just know it's a new family in the town and they need a babysitter. His brother will pick him up", She told me. Why did I, out of all people, have to do it.
"Why can't you or Alexis do it", I asked while looking back down at my work. She didn't answer she just left the room. Knowing her, she going out.
I go downstairs to the living room to see the boy. "What's your name?" I ask the boy.
"Ka'Mazi", he responds to me. He looked up at me from his phone. He just stared at me. Ion like that there. "You pretty", he said licking his lips.
"How old are you", I ask him.
"15", he tells me.
"You too young sir chill out", I say back sitting on the singular couch.
I decided I would go back and do my study guide since the boy is 15. I was on number 70. Ugh this is so tiring.

I finally finished my study guide. I did give the boy some food he did tell me he was hungry. The things is his brother isn't here to get him and I'm tired and ready to sleep.
10:45pm man. He needs to come on. I'm so tired and I don't know the boy enough to trust him while I'm sleeping.
Finally a few minutes later, I hear a knock on the door. I get downstairs to see Ka'Mazi done already opened it. "Don't be opening no door without me knowing", I say to him.
"It's my brother though", He said looking back at me. Nigga am I supposed to care. "I don't care this ain't your house so don't open no door", I pop back.
"Aye stop talking to him like that", His brother said. Damn his brother fine asf. "I do what I want. Like I said don't open the front door", I say going back upstairs.
I get to my room but as I'm about to close the door, someone pushes it open. "What's yo fuckin problem", the boy came into my room. I just know he ain't just come in my room like this.
"Why are you in my room", I say trying to push him out. Damn he was not budging. Strong sexy man. Anyway. "I told you to watch yo mouth talking to my little brother like that", he said pointing his finger in my face.
"And I said I do what I want. You don't control baby", I say walking towards my bed. He pulls my arm and I go backwards onto him.
"Quit fucking playing with me. Like I said don't speak to my brother like that. You got me", he said looking down at me. I guess.
"Mhm", I say looking down.
"Use your words mamas", he said making me look at him.
"I got you now move", I say pushing away from him.
