She was pretty
She never knew why her mother gave her a ugly name
Her real name was Petra Alice jones Williams she hate that name
Anyone who bullied her always brought it up but her one memory was at the park she two other girls was waiting to get on the swing
Pretty was in this class alone
Often times if you had a twin in the city or in school they splits you up to different classes that what they did even for lunch often if her sister cry or complain since her sister was more of quiet type she snuck in her class until the teacher said something
..she wasn't sure why the rules like that
She and her sister was often good except for park accidents you see when other girl was waiting she made a mistake calling her Anthonia instead of Toni she call her by her real name the girl who on the swing who call anthonia didn't like her name either so she called her pretty awful name it sounded like racism mark
The girl try to tell her she not Spanish and she not black but white
Petra was confused her father was black and her mother was Spanish and black although she looked more on the lighter side
She thought that girl got confused
So she went up to her pulled her by the pig tails off the swing a another girl goes runs off yelling to the teacher since the anthonia was on the ground screaming
Anthonia herself was Spanish
Pretty wasn't haven't it the teacher split up the fight telling pretty to go to office
Anthonia scAP her knees but wasn't injury
Still pretty dad came to school he was pissed Anthonia been bullied his daughter some times now
The girl Anthonia saw Petra mom and dad having very strong conversations with the teacher about what happened outside off the playground of school
Petra told her dad what happened
They was all in the office
After wards anthonia came up to Petra I
I'm sorry I didn't know your like me ? Anthonia was darker then her more black but she didn't know how color of skin can be different
She said I'm sorry you know your very pretty maybe can I call you pretty it's more easy then Petra
Pretty told her she was sorry she said her real name
Anthonia told her why she hated her real name it was sad story about her parents so she said to call her toni
The girl later in high school became best of friends
Anthonia learn Spanish people can be all shades of color and she learned not to say words she didn't understand herself especially if she heard a guy call another girl that in wrong way
She learned people learn to speak it their own pace . Toni was advanced at speaking Spanish at young age . Pretty struggling speech Spanish well her twin spoke it really well. It wasn't until high school pretty could speak it with confidence as well perfectly understand it but she did know curse words perfectly fine . Mia was the same way as pretty with learning Spanish
Well Lonnie and Shyla learned it well and could speak it but chose to speak English most of times when they wasn't in school or at home
Did that make them less Spanish no
They knew the words the food and dance and the music
Nothing could change that
