Selina

"Fi you gotta be kidding me right I get off at 10 why do I have to stay overtime?" I asked already agitated from the 5 hour shift I just did.

"You came in 18 minutes late Selina I cant let that slide just help wash the dishes or something" Im starting to be convinced that she hates me. Just because I was the youngest she worked me hard as hell and I was starting to regret getting this job.

I slammed the hand on the counter before tying my hair back up and washing some dishes.

Once I was finished cleaning the back kitchen I was exhausted and didn't think I could make this pick up with Dom so I headed straight home and got into bed falling fast asleep.

But before I could fall asleep I removed all of the cash I got in tips and grabbed my shoebox from under my bed which held 7,000 dollars.

All drug money and some of the little change money I made from work.

I saved up.

So one day I could get out of this hell of a ghetto.

The school day went by rather fast today. Maybe because I wasn't in much of a bad mood. Ive seen Carl several times in the hall and we had detention today for a whole hour.

This should be fun.

"Sit down and be quiet I will be in the next room over and If I hear talking we'll extend this session to two hours how bout that?" One of the ninth grade teachers said standing infront of the class.

Carl came in as soon as she was leaving out and they both eyed each other weirdly and he smirked at me.

He sat down behind me and pushed his arm behind mine really close.

The whole classroom started to talk including our little group. "Im having a party tonight at my house you should come" Carl whispers in my ear giving me a chill and I shifted in my seat so I was facing him.

"Last minute?"

"No Ive been planning this all week everyones coming, right!?" Carl yelled and everyone in the classroom agreed.

I raised and eyebrow and smirked. "Ok, hopefully It wont be like last time" I say smiling before turning around in my chair and we had a conversation the whole hour talking about complete everything.

"Wear something nice to, don't come to my house looking like a throw away child" Carl said sarcastically and I hung my mouth open.

"Look whose talking" I reply before the teacher dismissed us and we both went our separate ways home.

I was actually excited about going tonight. Seeing Carl being sincere about starting over kind of shocked me, but I wasn't complaining.

I got my phone out texting both Linsey and Kim wondering if they wanted to come. Kim didn't have a babysitter for her son and Linsey made up an excuse like always.
