The New Girl

New Me (Prologue )

To the very few that learned to love yourself for all you are and for the ones that are trying to learn.-DNC

Adria's Thoughts:

I wasn't the kind of person that looked down on other people because of race or things that people wasn't able to change, but growing up in the city of perfect asses and beautiful sexy girls can have a toll on how you see and get seen. Never being able to fit my thick thighs in a size pass a two digit number use to put myself love down to nothing. Having these snap-back and tattoos boys asking for a size 2 light skin girl with an ass to spare didn't really put me in a selection of miss top wanted. I never let it get to me, because I know I look better than most size 16 plus size girls. It's not like I've never had a boyfriend. Don't get me wrong. This isn't me looking down on myself because I love my size and my rich Italian and Greek mixed culture. I love who I am and will never try to change my pasta in for nothing but salads, but even I needed a change in my life style.

Knocking me out of my day dream of thought the morning bell rung of a sound I thought I would never miss. "OMG Adria is that you!" It's so funny how even with the sounds of the busy hallways and the clicks and groups crying over seeing each other for the first time in months. The freshmen looking lost and asking teachers where there first period classes are I can still hear Galina. Gila for short. Turning around I put on my nice to see you smile. "Hey Gila Pooh!" I said as she looked me up and down as if she had never seen me before.

"OM-GOSH! You got smaller!" She spoke in a whisper as if no one was supposed to hear. I looked at her with a smile and said thank you. It was about time someone noticed the working out and missing a whole 2 months of my grandmother's pasta and my mom's Baklava Ugh!

"So girlie you need to tell me what your summer was like! You were so M.I.A this summer it wasn't funny!" Galina is my best friend she was the only person through every step of the way helped me through my first year of high school. We are like sisters never apart, but unlike me she has guys on her like God dropped her down in a freaking basket and told niggahs to be thirsty himself. Gila was 5'7 with cinnamon skin and green eyes, she was small nut thick in all the right placed. She is a Varsity cheerleader and had the body and skills to match the picture of it. We start walking down the large but crowed hallways like we had never left Linwood High School. We are seniors and I was more than happy for this point it was just like Gila and me were those freshmen looking around in the sea of confusion ourselves.

"Aye Baby!" TJ yelled from the top of his lungs from the other end of the hallways. Gila and I stopped at the girl's bathroom door. Gila quickly turned around with a smile. TJ was Gila's "sexy" jock football player, basketball player and oh yeah every other sport that could be thrown, caught, or make a point. He is the all star everyone knew and the guy every girl wanted. With his Tall 6'3 frame built body. He walked over with a smile. Picked up Gila and kissed her. My eyes went towards the other way of course looking for those nosey ass teachers. The teachers in this school was not about the right and i hated them for it. They are always about getting someone ISS or OSS just to say they did.

"Oh my god Adria is that you!" TJ dropped Gila like he wasn't in the middle of doing something and looked at me. "Girl you look hella different!" Tj shot me a quick smile and i returned the favor. I could tell Gila wasn't feeling the 2sec chemistry , because her ass was ready to go to 1st block already.

"Ugh don't we need to be going to class!" she said stepping in between me in TJ as if she was a dog claiming her damn bone. He looked at me and then at his phone.

"Oh yeah! cant be late for 1st block you know how Mr. Carson get with his old ass." He laughs and I follow behind with a giggle.

"Yeah you shouldn't be late! So Bye!" she leaned up for their 2nd 15 min kissed and got a kiss on the lips instead. He looked at me with another smile and walked away.

Looking at Gila i gave her a smile . She Turned to the girls restroom door and went inside. I followed. " What .. I thought you wanted to go to class". She looked at me and laughed.

"Girl you know in the last 3 years i have never been early for no 1st block! now help me!" she tossed me her Love Pink bright blue duffel and went into the stall.

I laughed at her as she throws over the plain blue jean and red polo. I slid her the duffel.

" So how long are you going to be doing this " i laughed. Gila has been changing clothes since we have been in 6th grade. Its really funny that she has gotten away with her christen approve clothing turning into just making dress code.

Gila walks out of the stall looking like she just stepped out of a picture on Tumblr. she looked at me and smiles. " I will keep doing this till my dad gets off my back with this your going to hell if I see your knees type shit"! I laughed , but as funny as she said it it was 100% true. Gila's dad was not about the right. He is so devoted in Christ its not funny. Yes that can be the best thing for any person but when you dad is so devoted he never lets you live its not cool.

"Yeah but anyway girl , guess what you, Tj and the group doing this Saturday?!" she turned around with a big smile. I looked at her ." Read a book!" She looked at me and give me the bitch please face ." Hell No! we are going to the Class of 2014 Blowout!" I looked at her. "And don't give me that look Adria cause i will be at your house and you will go!.

"Be ready by 9pm,Love You!"

The bell for 1st block rings . She walks out.
