Georgia's POV
I get undressed to shower while the room fills with steam and Father - "Heartthrob" plays in the background (PLAY SONGGG) I look on the mirror admiring my curvy body, I know I can be self centered, but damn I look good rn 😊. I finally get in the shower and the hot water cleanses away the stress of my day as it remains existing in steam on the mirror. I look in the mirror, and see a beautiful young girl. I look in the cloudy mirror, and see a stressed out, helpless girl in a world too big for her to get a grip on. I cry a little, thinking about the beating I'll get from my mom when I come out of this bathroom. My dad left the house years ago, and my mom's taken it out on me ever since.

"Rock wit it lean wit it, styrofoam wit lean in it. Party not poppin 'less my whole fuckin team in it"

I go in my room quietly so my mom won't hear me, and I lotion my dark chocolate brown skin. Skin like this, you think this bitch finna be ashy!? Uh-Uhn. Just then my phone rings and it's my bestfriend, Angelo. I decline, telling him I'm tryna get dressed. Then I get a text back, it's a smirk face emoji, "lol u lil perv" I text back. He's so annoying Lls.

*Later at School*
"And your homework for the weekend is-" BRRRRING the bell rang. "DO PAGE 156-160 IN YOUR MATH BOOKS" The teacher yelled, but we were already gone. "wanna go to the mall this weekend?" Angelo asks me nervously. Why is he nervous?, I ask myself. "Sure, why not" I say nonchalantly. "Cool" He said looking the other way. Angelo is my day one. I've known him since the 1st grade. He's a tall boy with these big shiny diamond earrings, and smooth, dark, chocolate skin. He's lowkey cute, but I don't wanna make our friendship awkward.

When I got home, my mother was passed out drunk on the couch. I took that opportunity to pack some of my clothes and some money. I'm gonna spend the night with Angelo. I don't wanna deal with my mom in the morning, so it's best to leave.
