Is This Love?

Poetic Movements

               If you told me by the end of high school I would have been in a relationship with someone like Justin I would have said 'yeah right.' Never in my life have I ever thought I would be that girl "in love". I always thought those types of "crazy in love" couples were exaggerated and naive young people. My life used to be so simple- no boy drama, no increasing heart beats, no thoughts of him clouding my mind, and never having to wonder what I did wrong. Now I'm in this relationship. This relationship is far from a fairytale and nothing like a walk in the park. This was like a walking  through a battlefield.  This is my beautiful nightmare dressed as an angel.

           It all started when my mom and I did our big move back in August. It meant a new school, making new friends, even though my best friend of 7 years ( Tamara) will always be there. But the highlight of the move was the job promotion my mother has gotten. She's IT manager and recently gotten transferred to another Google company that was in need of someone in her fields of work. I guess someone put in a good word, but anyway with this new promotion my mother decided it would be nice to buy a nice house that would be our new home. I have a dog named PJ and he was the only other friend I needed other than Tamara because dogs are better than most people. So throughout August my days consisted of moving into our new home, my mom was able to help because they were giving her two weeks to "adapt and move in". School was going to start September 5th and I personally wasn't excited. I mean, I get good grades and I can stand my school lunch, but the people there weren't always my cup of tea. High school drama was never my scene and I was rarely involved with it, and I would like to keep it that way.

          It was around 4:30 when I finished everything with my room, and it only took about six thousand years.  Actually it took two weeks of waking up at 5 A.M and sleeping at 2 A.M to get the house all settled into and actually looking like a home. My room wasn't like a room out of tumblr or instagram, but it looked nice. 

            I sat on my bed and decided to text Tamara and see if we were still going to go shopping tomorrow because school is on Monday and I need some cute outfits before I spend all my money on food. I unlocked my phone and texted my Main so we could plan what time she coming over.

        TEXT MESSAGE DONE

             By the time I was actually off my phone it was almost 6 so now I have four hours of this day before I spend the rest of it in bed.  I looked around and decided my outfit for tomorrow. After moisturizing my hair I  headed to the kitchen.  After making a sandwich and a glass of koolaid I sat on the couch and watched TV. After a 30 minute episode of Family Guy I decided to take Bruno on a walk since it was 6:30 and it would be better than just letting him out to the backyard and watching him run around and chase after stray cats. After washing my plate and glass I took off the oversized shirt and shorts I was wearing and switched it for a white crop hoodie and grey skinny sweatpants,  and then put on my all grey adidas. As for my hair, I left it in the afro curly state it was in, I don't really  feel like breaking scrunchies and it looks really cute right now.

               "Bruno come here." I said while I took his leash out of the drawer. As I bent down and put the harness and leash on my white-brown- and spotted black Beagle. I shot a text out to my mom telling her I'm taking Bruno around the block as I get plastic bags. Soon after she texted me back saying she'll be home around 8 with pizza.  I sent her an ily and smiley face emoji as I grabbed my keys off my nightstand and plugged in my earphones after turning on my Spotify playlist. With Bruno leading the way our walking adventure began.

             After going around the block a few times and Bruno sniffing everything like his last breath of air I decided we should probably head back home. This was a pretty nice walk, I mean 15 minutes is not that short and Bruno done his business. On our way back home I saw a group of guys walk into a beige house that is on my block. I made eye contact with one of them, and might I add, they were not bad looking, maybe I'll see again who knows?

                My mom came home at 8:15 with two medium boxes of pizza, as promised. She's the best like what would I do without her? She works Monday- Fridays but she's always texting me and checking up to see if everything's ok.  We ate and talked about our day, mostly hers since mine was uneventful other than moving around stuff and sleeping. Her day was pretty great, she told me about the new coworkers and how smoothly she's transitioning etc. We watched a few episodes of Hell's Kitchen because who doesn't like food and Gordon Ramsey? 

             "So what time are you guys coming back?" My mom asked as I turned off the TV and put the leftovers in the fridge. 

            " Um..what time do we have to come back?" I asked while trying to look innocent hoping that she will say something along the lines of "whenever is fine sweet pea darlin-

             " I'll pick you guys up 5:30 and Tamara can stay as long as she likes, but if she is sleeping over her mom has to call me." My amazing mom says as she checks her phone. Sometimes I wonder why she doesn't try to move on.

           "Thank youuu mom I love you so much Goodnight," I say as I kiss her cheek and forehead and cheek again before I go upstairs and into my room. I change into my pjs and go to the bathroom to wash my face, wrap my hair, & brush my teeth. Once that's out of the way I go to my  bed and play some color swap until I pass out.
