Fork in the Road

Back to school

"Destiny, wake up."

I don't think I can wake up if I was never sleep

I haven't been able to sleep for the last couple days.

I went in the bathroom and took a 10 minute shower and brushed my teeth.

"Aunt Tammie," I yelled " do I wear a uniform?"

"No sweetie"

Okay, since I still have this cast on, I'll do sweat pants or a skirt.........sweat pants. I put on black baggy sweat pants with cèline Paris crop top, red chucks, and a black and red fitted hat with my name on the side then I hobbled to my full body Mirror to look at myself. "Ehh, don't really like my hair straight but it'll do." I grabbed my book bag and headed down the to the living room.

"Aunt Tammie I'm ready."

"Good morning baby. I'm not taking you to school. I..."

"How the hell I'm suppose to get there. I don't even know what school it is."

"Calm down child! I called Chanel and James and they're coming to get you. I thought you should spend some time with them."

"Hmm okay"

I sat on the coach until I heard a car horn.

Thank God they have car. I made my way to the car and sat on the back. "Uhh, good morning." "Morning" they said in unison. I didn't have anything else to say so I stared out the window. This picture of nature sent me into another flask back.

"Mommy, I'm scared." " You'll be fine sweety." You're one of the best...." my flashback was interrupted but I firm slap in my face.

"ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY?! DO YOU KNOW I WILL BEAT YOUR MOTHER FUCKING ASS!" I couldn't even reason with him. It was so sudden and unexpected.

"I'm sorry Dest, but we're at school and it's a lot we have to do before school starts" James said. He sounded like he didn't want to be here any way. I don't care as long as he doesn't do that again. "Ard whatever." "Still stubborn as ever." he muffled under his breath.

I rolled my eyes and followed James and Nellie. "Where are we goin?"

"The guidance counselor. She wanted to meet up with you whenever you got better."

"Destiny, glad to see that you're here." the very plumped lady said with a smile. "Uh, wassup." "Have a seat. Chanel, James, you two can leave. Destiny is going to be here for a while. Is she leaving with you two?" "yes ma'am" they replied in unison. "well then I'll write you a pass to come down 10 minutes before dismissal." They both nodded then left. I sigh then waited for the lady to speak.

"Okay. Now Destiny, since you have been diagnosed with amnesia, your teachers and I have decided to give you various diagnostic test to see if you need to be put into any intermediate classes so you won't have to repeat the grade. This will take about an hour per test and you have five classes."

"Okay,what time is school over?"

"2:20"

I looked at my watch to see it's was quarter to 8.

"Okay, let's go"

I could see the lady was shocked at my optimism, but she took me to a room where I began the longest 5 hours of my life.

Finally, I'm done

I walk to where I first was to give the lady my final scantron. "Good, now let me put this in the machine. There's about 45 minutes of school left. I ordered you pizza, wings, and a soda. I'll be back in a little bit."

Food! Gosh I'm hungry.

When I was almost done the lady came back in with an astonished look. I just sat there and finished eating. "Destiny. You received a perfect score on everything but government and biology."

"That's cool." I continued to eat.

"Since you received these amazing scores, you'll be back in class tomorrow." As soon as she finished, Nellie and James walked in. "You two walked in just in time. Destiny will be back in classes tomorrow." "Cool, can we go now?" "Yes, you are dismissed."
