Araa POV

"Daddy"I shouted from inside my room I didn't get a reply back so I assumed he had already left to go to the store. I picked up my black and gold iPhone 6s and dialed his number, he answered the phone on the 4th ring. Hey daddy I said, What do u need he asked, can u bring me back a bag of Hot cheeto puffs, Takis, mandarin oranges, grapes, fruity pebbles, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and my strawberry cakesssss pleaseeeee I begged, Yes and next time can u type all that shit to me he said impatiently , yes father I will, thank you, np bye, and then he hung up the phone. My father never says bye he get on my nerves with that. But anyways My name is De'arra Gabriella Taylor I was born in Tennessee with my mom but moved with my dad a little after I turned 16. I was born on April 17, 1996 at 4:06Am. My mom won't be in my life for a while and I still remember the reason why

Flash back
When Gage opened the door I couldn't believe my eyes, Mark (my moms boyfriend) was shot dead in front of the door, my mom had a gun in her hand and she shot him in the neck. He was trying to run after me after I kicked him in the balls, my mom had enough time to grab the gun from under the couch and shoot him before he could get me. That day she told me to stay with Gage and that my dad will come and pick me up a little less then a week. She then hurried up and got a lot of my clothes and through them in a suitcase and I helped her. After that she told me she loved me and pushed me out the door and locked it. I banged on the door for her to open up but she wouldn't open the door, Gage tried to calm me down but I wouldn't calm down. Five minutes later we heard cop sirens, Gage picked me up and carried me to his house, I kept hitting him and telling him to put me Down but he wouldn't he just kept carrying me to his house. A month later of me staying with Gage my dad finally came to pick me up and we flew here to Miami , the second day of me living there I heard my mom got sentenced to jail for 15years, it could have been 20 but the judge lowered it.
Flash Back over

After the flashback I felt tears running down my face I missed Gage and most of all I missed my mother. I wiped my tears and started downstairs. I looked in the pantry and grabbed me a strawberry cake they always make me happy . My dad is 37 years old he is the coach for Miami Heat basketball team. We have a 2 story house with 6rooms in it. We have my room , his room , a gym room, my dance studio, a work room, and a guest room. I'm the youngest child , I have a older brother that is 20 he lived with my dad while I lived with my mom. His name is Bryshere Y. Gray, he has my fathers last name while I have my mothers. My brother moved out when he turned 18 so I never got to really live in the same house hold as him. I love my brother, he is a rapper and an actress so he makes a lot of money and is always busy unlike me, I'm just instagram famous, and a good dancer. I'm a senior so this is my last year in high school. School starts in 1month, right now it's summer break. I don't have a lot of friends because I don't like people like that I'm rude and I speak my mind 24/7 basically I don't have a filter. I'm not scared of anyone I've gotten in 7fights in elementary and 9 in middle and high school together, so total I've been in 16 fights. I'm 5'6 and I'm a dark chocolate sexy girl with red and black hair. I'm single and not ready to mingle soo that's about me.

Baby girl I'm home my dad yelled from downstairs, not really in the mood i walked downstairs to be met with my dad and my brother right behind him. I was shocked to see my big brother standing in front of me, I was happy to see him. Hey Ugly I said running towards him, Hey Big head he replied in position of catching me when I jumped on him. What are you doing here i questioned does it matter lil girl he said Yes it matter and I'm not no lil girl to you no more boy. Yes you is 5 head he said smiling , First off no im not second off I have a four head not no 5head like your girlfriend, and third off I wanna know why you here and give me a real answer I semi yelled. Watch yo tone De'arra , my girlfriend ain't  got not damn 5head either and I'm here because I got a concert here in a week and it's my last concert so I decided to stay here until you go to school he said smiling, You lying I said rolling my eyes, No I'm not he said with a serious face , OMG I shouted jumping on him again and giving him a bigger hug.

After I gave him a hug my dad was recording us and laughing then he asked me why I was crying, I didn't even know I was crying I don't show my emotions like this. I don't know I said

You that happy to see me stank breathe Keem (Keem is his nickname)said. Maybe I said then I walked in the kitchen and got my bags of food and took it upstairs to put it in my lil food area and then I put my drinks and fruit in my Minnie refrigerator.

My brother walked upstairs and we started talking for about an hour catching up and laughing at eachother, I love my brother really much no one understands how much I love him.

I missed you Brother I said I missed you too he said . But look you a senior now he said laughing , you growing up he said while pretending like he was crying.

Omg shut up I said slapping his arm and laughing with him. I'm finna go take a shower I said getting up off of my queen size bed. Okay he replied while walking out my room door.

I went in my drawers and got some shorts and my Victoria secret sports brah and underwear. I then picked out my fav shampoo and conditioner and then hopped in the shower. I washed my hair and combed it out in the shower first then I bathed while letting the water run through my hair, when I finished my hour shower I hopped out the shower and turned it off. I then went in the mirror and put conditioner in my hair and breaded down for the night, I then brushed my teeth and washed my face and put tooth paste all on my bumps

I slipped on my clothes and turned on my tv and I put my phone on Bluetooth, I put on cutting up by Lud Foe. Then I grabbed my phone and started scrolling down instagram, then I got a text from my only friend Neke.
