Aries POV
I threw my covers back and sat up. My mother came in bitching at me because I didn't wake up the first of ten times she knocked on the door.
"Aries Karman Bell! Yo ass better be-"
"I'm up ma!" I yelled before she could finish.
I rushed to my closet and picked out some green joggers, a white crop top and timbs. I took a shower and did my hygiene thing before getting dressed. I put my straight hair in a half up half down style then sprayed perfume on myself. One i was done I grabbed my book bag and phone off the charger before heading to the kitchen.
"Hell na! You ain't wearing that!" My dad yelled"But you guys let Arnez do whatever he wanna!" I whined.
Arnez is my older brother by 2 years. I love him to death but he's too perfect. My parents expect me to be just like him and when I'm not they yell at me. Which is 24/7. Arnez looks exactly like me, he's just more manlier.
"That's because he'a responsible boy."
"But it's just clothes and it ain't e'm that revealin' you can barely see my stomach! Y'all always exaggeratin' over nun damn!" I yelled but regretted saying that cuss word immediately. I felt a slap across my face and I held my cheek.
"I apologize." I said before grabbing my book bag and running out. On my way to school I met up with my best friends Sièta (sy-ee-tuh) and Rizzy.
Sièta was 17 also. She was just two inches taller than me at 5'2 with long curly black hair. She has a very pretty light skin tone from her puerto rican parents.
Rizzy who is also 17 stood 5'6 with black hair that stops at the top of her back. She's brown, close to darkskin like rich chocolate. We've all known each other since we were 3.
"So how you n' Justin doing?" Rizzy asked.
"Ehh...we doing okay." I replied twisting my lips.
Justin's my boyfriend, and he has been for a couple months now.
