Hi whoever's reading this. Um...this is my first time attempting to even write a book? story? Idk what this is going to turn out to be, but basically I just decided to start recording my daydreaming about college, becoming a strong, intellegent black woman, start dating, find love, etc. etc. Please bare with me! Here goes:
***************************************************************
LILAC
"Aww my baby's all grown up!" ugh my mom can be so dramatic sometimes but i know she means well and just loves me. after all, i am the 'baby' of the family. By the way, I'm Lilac, Lilac Marie Johnson. The daughter of John and Wanda Johnson and sister of Casey Johnson who couldn't be here today because of work. I'm the first in my family to go to a big university, so my parents are making a pretty big deal over it.
"Remember don't be freshin' with them boys ya hear?" my mom's southern accent drawling out every word.
"Daaaamn man leave her alone. We raised her right. Just don't hesitate to use your pepper spray and taser if a nigga wanna try anything, baby girl." He curses in almost every sentence, but that's my daddy and yes i still say 'daddy' I don't know if its a Georgia thing or just the part where I'm from but 'dad' never sounded right. He's a big security buff, so I'm always packing.
"Yes Yes i know already eat 3 times a day, brush my teeth, don't end up being a statistic pregnant black woman on food stamps check. I mean i bust my butt to make it here; I'm not letting anything get in my way. I've come too far to stop now. have a little faith." With that, my parents stopped the unnecessary reminders. We group hugged in one long, warm embrace, said our goodbyes and love yous, and they left. I was going to miss them, but at the same time, that motivates me to make something of myself with this academic scholarship to Berry College. It was a really beautiful in a medieval kind of way. i decided to get a better look from the outside, and just as i was opening my dorm's door to leave, i bumped into someone- guessing my roommate- entering.
"Sorry Sorry!" (For you elfs)"It's fine"
I notice she was more concerned about turning her beats head phones down but not before I could here the distinctive voice of rap monster at the beginning of what must be bts dope.
"OMG are you a kpopper? Better yet an ARMY?!?!""HELL YEAH!"
*Fangirl screams*
"I can't believe I met a fellow kpop fan. I was trying to turn it down because I didn't want the judgement. You know like 'why do you listen to kpop you don't understand what they're saying' crap"
"Yeah I know. But just for the record your bias in bts better not be Jimin or imma have to kill you" she chuckled but I was dead serious. Jimin is bae.
"No, my bias is V. And I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Jessi."
"Kpop is an introduction girl! I'm Lilac."
"So Lilac where were you headed off to?"
"Outside to get a good look at this gorgeous campus. Let's go!"
We walk to the outskirts of the college so we could see the full view of it and all I could think is I never thought I'd get to go to such a beautiful school. It looks like a firetrucking ca- Umph!
"Sorry" I and a really cute guy say at the same time. He wasn't really dark skinned or light skin, like a milk chocolate. He was tall, at least 6 feet or more. He had these deep brown eyes but light enough so you clearly see the color complemented by long eyelashes and thick eyebrows. His hair was a soft looking curly afro with a tape line. Looking like a mix between Trey Songz and August Alsina. Slender build but definitely had muscles because it looked like i could wash clothes on his six pack and hang them out to dry on his biceps. Yeah he's shirtless and wait how long have i been checking him out?- and vice versa
''Ahem.'' Jessi clears her voice and breaks the silence that must have lasted a good 30 seconds. ''Please continue undressing my new best friend in your mind baby bro.''
''First of all, we're only 7 seconds apart. Second, your girl was looking pretty hard too.'' Thank god for melanin because im blushing really hard now but it was invisible.
"So uh..." I attempt a sentence but fail.
"So uh can i get a name?" flashing his dimples which looked like two deep canyons on the sides of his face. i just about died; i have a major thing for dimples. His teeth are a dazzling white too. his smile i cant right now, and his voice is butter. Crud! my name, what's my name again?
"I-I'm L-Lilac" I barely managed to get out.
"Lilac? A pretty name for a pretty girl." he winked "I'm Luke."
***************************************************************
