As I was walking out of school, I feel a pair of hands grab me, and pull me into a body. I pulled away thinking it was Jason, but it was Stacy, and Michelle. They haven't seen me all day. I avoided everyone today. When the pulled me, I haven't even noticed the force of my head jerking towards them caused my shades to fly off.
"Nic, what-what happened to your fucking face?!" Stacy screamed at me, causing attention on me. That's the last thing I wanted.
"Yeah. Onika, what happened?" Michelle followed up with a question of her own.
"I fell. Where's Monica?" I asked, desperately trying to change the subject. Knowing them, it didn't work.
"Okay, one, don't change the subject. Two, she's out today and three, you fell on someone's fist?! Who do I have to fuck up, Onika?" Stacy's mad. She only says my real name when she's mad. Just like them. They are my real day one's.
"I-" I started, but was cut off by Jason calling me. When I turned around, he was running to me.
"Nic, I'm so sorry babe-" He looked by me and saw my friends. He hated me having close friends. He knew one day if I left, I could always go to their house. They wouldn't turn me away.
When I looked at Michelle's face, she was scowling at him. It made him uncomfortable. I guess she pieced it together that he did this. Stacy was just in shock.

"Nic, can we talk, in private." He looked at them to signal them away. But they didn't budge.
"No. Say what you gotta say in front of us. We ain't nobody." Michelle spoke up, before I could. Michelle is so ratchet, but she the homie.
"You're correct about that." He mumbled.
"What am I correct about"
"About you being a nobody!" Jason turned from me and spat in her face.
