KARIZMAS POV
I plop down on my bed and start to cry . Tears stream down my face making my mascara smear . " why can't she ever get me anything I want " I cry to myself . I wish my daddy was still alive . " My life wouldn't be as fucked up as it is now ! " I put my head into my pillow as I cry and then fall fast asleep.

NEXT MORNING
I woke up to my alarm with crusted boogers gluing my puffy eyes together. " hate her " I mumble to myself . I go to the small bathroom to rinse my eyes and do my daily hygiene routine before I get dressed for school . Oh did I mention who I was . I'm Karizma Eugene , 14 years old , attends Cleveland for the Arts , dumb last name I know right . 🙄. I hate it . Anyway I finish my hygiene routine and get dressed. I put on some lightly colored blue jeans that are cuffed at the bottom , a grey polo fitted shirt , and my Baron 12's I just got . I then put a neat bun in my hair with my edges slayed . 😌. No matter how hard I try I'm still ugly . An ugly little potato . *sigh* I grab my book bag and go outside to wait for the bus because my mom has no gas to take me to school . I start to tear up knowing that stuff would be so much better if daddy was here . I know my mom tries her best and I love her for that , but I don't know how to feel about this type of situation. All I can do is cry. I get on the bus , as I wait for it to arrive at my school .

SCHOOL
I arrive at school and walk through the double doors where the metal detectors are . I walk through the metal detectors and go to the restroom to look at my eyes . They were still puffy !!! 😑. I then walk out trying not to be seen as soon as I see my best friend Danielle .
" KARIZMAAAAAA " she yells so everybody can hear her .
" hey Danielle " I say looking down .
" wait , what's the matter bestie "
" Mom " I say starting to tear up .
" awe , well you got me to cheer you up ! Let's go eat " she said in a understandable tone.
I walk with Danielle to the cafeteria in silence . I don't speak to anybody when they say hey to me , I just wave back with my head down .
15 MINUTES LATER .
Rinnnnng *
The bell to dismiss us from breakfast rang and I walked to my first period alone. My American history teacher is teaching and all of a sudden calls on me to answer a question from our homework . I am startled by her saying my name and looks up in shock . She then realizes that my eyes are practically shut and asks me to step out in the hall .
" Mr. Williams will teach you guys for a minute "
He's the assistant college student / teacher . Aka my FAVVVV
* steps out into hall *
" are you okay " she asks in her old voice .
" yeah I'm fine , I'm just going through somethings right now " I replied tearing up . I then burst out in tears because of the thoughts running through my head .
" aweee baby , Its going to be alright " Mrs. Rose said as she hugged me and rubbed my back. " now go to the restroom and get that pretty face cleaned up " .
* 2nd , 3rd , and 4th period go by *
I'm wore out from all the crying I've done this morning . It was lunch time and I met up with Danielle , and she said " when you get home ask if you can come over and I'll have my uncle to pick you up okay ? "
I shook my head telling her that I will do so .
We got our lunch and these upperclassmen were checking me out as I walked past. " look at the ass on her " I heard one of them say . I turned to look at him in awe , rolled my eyes , and kept walking .
" some of these boys get on my last nerve " I say to Danielle as we sit down at a table with our other friends .
" I know girl , they're pervs " she replied .
I never eat this nasty school lunch , so I got up and threw it away without hesitation. The bell rang and lunch was over .
The rest of the day went smooth. 😌.
The day was over and I waited for the bus again .

The bus arrived and I got on it . I see all types of students from different schools on there . Even some cute boys ☺oooow . Let me stop . The bus pulled up at my stop and I got off the bus . I walked slowly home and checked my Instagram . I have an iPhone 6s Plus that my momma don't pay for. Her parents do . Thank god for them . I love them so much. When I arrived my little cute house , I go an ask my mom if I could go to Danielle's .
" mom can I go over Danielle's "
" how you gonna get there ? " she asked in a stern tone .
" her and her uncle are going to pick me up"
" awe , I don't care . You know if I had the gas I would take you ". She said tearing up
I hugged her and told her that it was okay and that I understand . It's hard out here and plus my momma young . I do so well in school just so she doesn't have to worry about me messing up or anything . I love my momma with all my heart . I then call up Danielle .
📲Phone Conversation 📲
Danielle - hello
Me - uh yeah she said I could come !
Danielle - *shouts* " uncle Benny , can we pick Karizma Up ? , alright we will be there in 15 .
Me- alright
*Hangs Up*
I pack my bag and as soon as I finish Danielle was outside .
" hello how are you ? " Uncle Benny greets to me.
" I'm fine and you ? "
" great " he replies with a smile .
The car ride there was dead silence .
