TIME

Kimani's P.O.V

I opened the door and went back into my bedroom and undressed myself. I stood in my underwear as I stared at myself again. Why did I have to be cursed with this skin tone. All it is, is skin and I can't even feel comfortable in it. Why is it that only fair skinned people can experience happiness, is their happiness worth more than mine? I again did my routine, after removing my bra, I cupped my breasts, I shivered as my cold hands touched my warm chest, my nipples erected and goose bumps appeared as I travelled my hands down to my sides. I stared at myself again, red eyes poisoned with emotion and skin cursed with ebony.

I sighed as I put on a t-shirt and my shorts. I then laid in my bed as I watched the ceiling. I was engulfed in questions and thoughts.

'If I buy a bed, do I have more or less bedroom?'

'Did we have homework?'

'Who first found out about milk and why were they touching down there?'

'Will I ever be seen as beautiful?'

As I bombarded myself with questions I felt myself go in and out of consciousness and soon after fell I asleep.

I walked into the room, it was pitch black. Suddenly a dim light appeared above me, I started falling and falling and falling. As I fell I was struck with words of discouragement and hate.

'I hate girls like you!'

'You're too dark!'

'Why are you soo black?'

'Blackie!'

I landed on my back and started to struggle to breathe as the words span around me.

I shot up from my bed and started breathing heavily. Sweat drenched my body as I continued to try and catch my breathe, I looked at the pitch black closing in to me. As my breathing began to even out I checked the time on my phone. 2:15pm. I opened my blinds and was struck with light, blinding me.

I walked downstairs into the kitchen and went to drink a glass of water as my hands shook. It was another one of my nightmares, (A/N: I didn't know what it would be, a nightmare or terror dream so I'm just gonna say nightmare.) I usually have them when I'm in deep thought or sadness. I hate them. They usually consist of hate, depression, skin, love, all sorts. I went into the living room and turned on the T.V as I watched some daytime T.V, Catchphrase it was.

As I sat there glued to the T.V I heard a knock at the door. I furrowed my eyebrows as I looked up at the clock hanging in the living room, it read 3:30pm. I wasn't expecting anyone and my mom didn't tell me about any visitors coming by. I sighed and crept to the door as I looked through the peephole to see, Shemika, Asia and Christian. As slight smile crept on my face as my heart filled with happiness.
They cared for me.
