"ANGEL, IT'S TIME TO GET UP"

My Mom yelled from my door. Getting up I went straight to my bathroom. Sitting on the toilet I was trying to figure out what I would wear today. It's Friday, and I get out early today.

"Oh I got it" I said to no one in particular, because I'm alone of course.

Getting off of the toilet, I washed my face and brushed my teeth, then I got in the shower. Getting out the shower, I wrapped myself in my towel and went straight to my closet.

DING DING

My phone rung notifying me that I have a text message. Walking out of my closet I go to my phone that next to my bed charging. Unlocking my phone I see that I have a message from my best friend Armani.

From:Best Friend <3<3<3<3

Good morning boo, because it's Friday we are going to the movies tonight and we're hitting up the mall. I'll see you when you get to school.

I smiled thinking about my best friend and thanking God that I have plans tonight instead of sitting in this house doing nothing.

Going back to my closet I continue to look for something to wear. I decided on regular skinny jeans, maroon crop top, a maroon infinity scarf, my maroon timbalands, my frye campus crossbody bag, and a earcuff, I had to take my piercings out of my right ear to be able to put the cuff in. I looked in the mirror and smiled.

"Yaaaas A. You cute" I said to myself.

Its something I do almost every morning, its like a confidence builder or more like a confidence reassurance. I didn't use to be as confident as I am now. Everyone has a past and mines wasn't always sunshine and rainbows.

I'm an even 5'6 and a half. I have pretty caramel skin, and curly hair. I have brown eyes, and they turn colors depending on my mood. I'm not exactly what you would call skinny, but I don't think I'm fat either, but these days everyone is either fat or skinny there is no in between. I'm 225 pounds, but I'm not saggy everywhere. I have big boobs, and Armani says I have a big butt, but I don't know. I have small feet and hands, and my stomach is flat. I have thick thighs that rub together. I love my body and I wouldn't change a thing about it. Armani loves hitting my butt and thighs and sometimes I swear she is gay, but there is no way, because she has David. Her boyfriend of 4 years now. They started dating in 8th grade and it was just so cute.

Its the beginning of the year, and were finally seniors. I'm so happy, I'm just jumping for joy on the inside.

Sitting down at my vanity I just threw on some eye liner and mascara and put on this really cute maroon lipstick I got last week shopping with Armani.

Smiling at my results, I grabbed my bag and phone and left my room, closing my door.

"Mommy, I'm bout to head out" I said walking into her room where she was still getting ready.

"Okay boo, gimme kiss" she said walking out of the bathroom with her robe on. I kissed her on the cheek and started to walk out of the room.

"You got money A." she asked. I gave her the flat look.

"I'm just asking cause you know money could be gone any second." She said putting her hands up in surrender.

"Mom you out of all people know that I save money like a horder saves...well everything. And I work for you mom, you write my paychecks so there is no reason to discuss this." I said.

My Mom owns her own boutique named Angels Closet, and she owns a beauty and hair salon,and she is also a fashion designer and has worked beside and for some of the greatest. And every time you ask her her purpose for being so successful, she always says it's all for the angel that saved my life. I work at the boutique, because of course I love love love clothes and I have a pretty amazing fashion sense, and designing clothes and styling people is my dream. Its what I want to do in my future. So why not work at something you love, get money, and do it with your Mom.
