What is it like to have your life completely under your control? No bumps, no interruptions, just a straight road to following your dream. A scholarship to University of Iowa will seal the deal for Star football player Chresanto August. His dream on...
side note; it was hard writing this chapter sorry for the lack of gifs also. enjoy:)
I re wrote this essay due for English over and over a million times and the most I've gotten was six crumpled up papers, an a idea I couldn't get it out and one page of drawings.

I'm suppose to be writing about a moment anytime in my life that changed me for the good or the worse it was easy as hell- if it wasn't about myself. I couldn't focus especially looking at everybody else in the classroom drawn into their assignments. Even worse I was way too focused on the kid in front of me. I hate to sound desperate but I really wished one of these boys would do something to get Chresanto to turn around. Twenty minutes in and absolutely nothing was said not even a second of eye contact.
I didn't do anything wrong.
right?
maybe the party was too much, maybe I went to far - I got drunk to the point that he had to take me home.
I groaned throwing my head down on the desk breaking the silence in the classroom.
everybody looked at me as if I had a third eye and my cheeks began to burn as the last person to look at me I refused to look back at. He was going to say something he looked for a while I know he was but instead he turned around. Somewhat of dread and relief washed over my body.
Looked over at the clock and 30 seconds until the bell would ring. I closed up my books I'll get on this paper tonight.

"Well, look who's alive." I said as I sat across from Lilly.
She looked horrible from what I could see, she had on a navy hoodie, a black scarf and sunglasses oblivious to the fact that It's like 80 degrees in here.
"You okay?"
"Peachy." she scoffed.
there's no way in hell she could be mad at me. Maybe she knows about Chresanto taking me home and is waiting for me to tell her.
"Hey," Gabby and Isaiah sat down at the lunch table with us.
"Look who I found." Gabby sang.
I rolled my eyes behind the shades Lilly probably did the same. "I'm really sorry guys-"
"Its cool, we really should've just stayed home." Lilly mumbled.
"Did you even have fun?" She asked.
I wouldn't be lying if I told her I didn't, well at first I didn't, but after she left it was alright.
