Arnell groaned as her alarm blared in her ear. She turned it off and forced herself out of bed. She dragged herself to the bathroom to get ready for school.

Arnell tossed her phone in her bag and went to go wake up August to take her to school. She jogged downstairs and stopped at his room door. There was signs of a female being there so she decided to knock instead of barging in like she usually does. She was not trying to get scarred for life.

"What?" He finally responded through the door.

"Ima be late for school, August."

Arnell heard August groan and then shuffle around his room. She heard his keys jingling right before the door opened. She got startled and took a step back.

August was looking like a bum. He had on a black hoodie, grey sweatpants and some red Nike slides. Arnell tried not to laugh at the outfit he threw together.

Arnell peeked around August to see Natalie hoe ass butt naked in Augusts' bed. That's the same hoe that be messing with Damitri. Arnell made a mental note to never sit on Augusts' bed again.

"You need your own car, forreal." August admitted. It was his first day of taking her to school and he was complaining about it already.

"Well, maybe you should buy me one." She suggested sweetly.

"I'll think about it." He responded while opening the front door for Arnell.

"What did you do, get dressed in the dark?" Arnell couldn't help but address the fact that her brother was looking like a scrub.

"Actually I did." He admitted. "And just for that, Ima pick you up after school in this same outfit , so you better hide your face when you getting in the car." He joked.

"Noooo. August stop."

"Come on girl, let's go."

After August dropped her off, Arnell walked into the building. She was looking for Anthony to give him the money Damitri gave her to fix his car. She was hoping that he didn't get all upset over it. She just had to explain that it wasn't his doing, it was all Mercedes.

She made her way to the cafeteria when she spotted someone familiar.

"Maggie?"

Maggie turned around and smiled. "Hey girl!"

"I didn't know you go here." Arnell gasped.

"Yeah, it's my first day."

"Lemme see your schedule." Arnell said while taking the piece of paper that Maggie had in her hand.
