          I really was hyperventilating, it was happening so fast, i was thinking so hard of what to do when the teacher walked into the class. I heaved a sigh of relief. The girls walked pass me shoving against my shoulder on purpose, giving me this "it's not over look". I really have to run to my bus stop immediately the bell rings. I can't take chances. At the beginning of the class, the teacher made each of us introduce ourselves to the class. It seemed like the girls were really close to dum dum's friend. I was looking and observing how they all surrounded him and he looked so much like a player. I was taken out from my thoughts when the teacher yelled "excuse me ma'am" i looked up to find the whole class staring at me, i was lost. And one of the girls that i had encountered yelled

"she wants your name stupid ass"  I just ignored her, stood up and said my name.

"hey my name is Shontaeya"

     I could feel dum dum's friend's face buried into mine. Like why was he even staring at me like i was some dumb ass kid. I sat down and the introduction went on and on. I was patiently waiting for it to get to the mean girls, and dum dum's friend so that i could stop calling them "mean girls and dum dum's friend." It finally got to them and the first person to go was the smallest one of them. She was a cute Blondie and actually looked innocent. She had a short black mini skirt with a long sleeve body con shirt tucked in and a gold choker and a messy bun. her name was Reyna, for a moment i almost fell for her innocent look. The next was this scary girl. Well not exactly scary but she looked like she was tired of life. She had a grey hoodie on with some jeans. Her name was "SHAY NAY NAY" at least that was the way she pronounced it but i think it was spelt "sheyneneh" and she talked like she was from the hood. She actually also looked like she was from the hood. She slowly took her seat while the next person stood up. This was the girl I had encountered earlier. It seemed like she was the leader or something. She looked like a bragging expensive spoilt brat. I felt really disgusted with people who bragged. Most people that brag don't even have as much as they claim to have.

She stood up and flipped her weave to the left side and stood in way that that her butt was all over dum dum's friend's face. She had a red velvet body con dress on with a jean jacket . I couldn't stretch to look at the shoes but I guess they were good too.Then she said "call me AYANNA" and sat down slowly in a stripper-like manner. Next was the tall skinny mean girl who actually looked pretty. Like some real natural beauty. She didn't look mean but I guess you can't judge a book by it's cover. Her name was BRIANNA. And finally the last person to go was dum dum's friend. I had been dying to know his name so that I could stop calling him "dum dum's friend" I wasn't exactly expecting a show from him just to say his name, he had black Capri joggers on with a grey T-shirt that revealed a little bit of the good stuff he had. I wasn't exactly tripped about boys with abs and muscles and stuff.

His name was "Rayshawn" now the only thing left was to know dum dum's name. Not like i cared anyway.

The time was going by so slow and all I could think of was how I was going to literally run to my bus. Sometimes I felt the girls especially Ayanna staring at me. Finally it was 2:30pm. As soon as the bell rang I dived away to my bus. I actually felt I wasn't going to make it, but I guess they probably decided to let it slide. I got to the bus and saw sally and si-si there. I was so happy to finally be with them again. we shared our first day experiences and I had the worse. They encouraged me that it was going to get better and I just wanted to be encouraged. I got home and the house was quiet as usual.

My personal life wasn't exactly great too. I had this big ass house, more like a mansion. Yeah I know, y'all think people with big houses have no problems. I actually don't specifically know what my dad does, but I know it was a government job and he was barely around. He was always travelling all over the world. My mom was surgeon. She was always at work, surgery was like her life. And yes I know y'all think I'm the only child but I'm not. I'm the last child and all my older siblings are like way older than me. My parents barely have time for me. They think money is everything.

I walked into the house and even though I was used to it being empty I called out. I'm home! For a second i felt stupid for doing that knowing fully well that there was going to be no response. I really needed somebody to talk to. Somebody to share my feelings with. Surprisingly i heard my mom say

Hey hunny, my face lit up when i saw my mom running down the stairs and i smiled but my smile faded when i saw her in her scrubs. Hey baby, i gotta rush back to the hospital, i just got paged. She gave me a kiss on my cheek and reminded me to get some food to eat. I really was hurt. I wanted to talk to somebody about my first day in high school. I watched as she got into her car and drove off. She had dropped her debit card on the coffee table, it was more like my debit card because i always used it. To eat, shopping and all. I had a personal chaffeur who i called when i needed to go out. My life wasn't the best. It was all vanity.

I went upstairs to my room, logged on to my i-Mac computer, and facetimed sally and si-si. Si-si talked about how she was already crushing on this one guy in her 3rd period. And we just laughed at her. I talked to them about how nervous i was about this whole high school thingy. They just laughed over it and told me i was overreacting. I probably was. I decided to stop thinking about it. I went down stairs, made myself a sandwich and went over to sierra's house. Sierra's parents were like my parents. They always made sure i got some parental care from them since my parents were too busy for that. Sierra's house was a normal single family house with a nice yard. They were comfortable.
Hi Ms. Brown, i said to sierra's mom as i walked into her house. "Hey Taeya" she said as she looked up at me brightening up.
How was your first day at school hunny?
It was great thank you for asking. And si-si interrupted me no it wasn't, spill it out now else i will help you. Her mom looked at us with a confused look. I looked down and sighed.
"Fine it wasn't great at all"
Her mom wiped her hands and gave me a tight hug. "I don't want to know the details hunny but i know everything is gonna be fine. As long as you always talk to us. We are your family so don't hesistate, okay hunny?"
I looked at her passionately, what will i have done without her, she was like a mom to me. I hugged her back and nodded. She made some cookies and left us alone. Sierra looked at me suspiciously. I knew she was up to something. I looked at her confusingly and asked her what?
"You know you look really cute when you are about to cry"
I looked up at sierra and the tears just came out. It was flowing and i wasn't sure of why i was crying but i just needed to release it. Sierra knew me so well, i couldn't hide any emotions from her. She made sure her mom didn't hear my loud sobs. She hugged me and i buried my face into her shoulder. When i stopped she asked me if this was about my day.
I wasn't sure, i don't think it was. I wanted to have a family so bad. A mom that could make cookies for me and my friends, i told sierra this and she hugged me and whispered in my ear.

"Shontaeya you already have a mom like that, it might not be the one that gave birth to you but you do have one"

I smiled and looked at si-si, and i muttered "never knew you were this sweet" and she laughed. I went back home, took a shower. I had no homework so i just turned on netflix. Watched one of my favorite shows Greys Anatomy.
I woke up with a bad neck pain. I opened my eyes and found myself on the couch. I figured that i slept off on the couch. I immediately got ready for school. I felt it was going to be a good day. Got to school with Sally and Sierra. We had the same class for first period which was chorus. I was so happy i had the same class with them. It really was gonna be a good day. We got to first period early and sat together. We watched as people entered the class and my mood changed when i saw dum dum walk in. What the hell was happening? Was i destined to have such bad luck. Sally and sierra talked me down to completely ignore his presence and remember that they were there. I was still baffled tho. Like what the h** was a person like that doing in a chorus class. Singing is for people with emotions not people with a stone heart. He sat directly opposite me and grinned when he saw me. "Seems like we are gonna be seeing each other often" i completely ignored him.
