The Impossible.

NAILEHA.

"LEEHHAAAAAA!!!!!!!! Get up woman. You need to get your ass up and do something productive with your life! Clean this room or wash your clothes. Ya que no tienes ropa limpia y estas usando la misma desde hacen dos dias.!! Salte de la cama y metete a bañar que apestas. This room also stinks, like dead rat at that!!!"

I hear her pull apart the window curtains and I prepare myself for the penetrating light by placing one of my pillow on my face. As I adjust to the light and TRY to get up from the bed, I feel her judging me so I turn my face the other way. I suck my bottom lip between my teeth, something I do out of habit.

As I dread to get up and start my day, I look around my room and decide its time for me to get up and take a shower. As I am about to stretch, the smell of my armpits hit me like a sack of onion on the face... Jesus! I really need a shower.

"Yes. Yes you do. And don't look at me like that. I can smell you all the way from here girl. Now go shower! "

Groaning, I get up from my amazing bed and make my way to the bathroom to do my business. Waiting for the water to get hot, I make my way to the mirror and stare at my reflection. Wooww. All this time I spend sleeping and I still have bags under my eyes. What is this?!! I literally sleep all damn day.

I took a shower and did all I needed to do and was feeling much better. Making my way back into my room, I look for some clothes for what I have planned today. I found the perfect outfit and put it on. It consist of a grey pencil skirt, button down red blouse a white cardigan and some black pumps I had hidden in my closet.

Here I am again in front of the mirror. Looking at my appearance, I straighten my skirt and tilt my head feeling almost satisfied with my look. I make my way to my makeup drawer and pull out some random lip gloss and my favorite mascara and apply that on. Okay now I'm satisfied with myself.

Walking down the stairs I hear my family conversing about some topic and out of nowhere my little brother ask where I was and if I was ever going to come out of my cave. And in that moment I knew that I needed to do something useful with my life.

"Heyyyy guyyss!!! Goodmorning mom, what are you making?"

"Morning sweetie, and making your favorite. Someone told me you were getting up today. And I see she was right. "

Well. Let me introduce you to my family. My beautiful mother, Maria Elena. She means the world to me, she is a cook and a full time house mother. My little sister Raquel, she's 15 and she is a total beauty. A pain in the butt, but the best. I wouldn't have it any other way. And finally, my devilish little brother. Timothy, he is 13 and I have no words to describe him to be honest. Anywaysss!! Moving on. I am Naileha Martinez and I am 18 years old and I was born and raised in Puerto Rico. My birthday is on June 19 and that's right around the corner.

As I ate my pancakes, scramble eggs and bacon the phone decides to ring.

"Aloo?"

"Se encuentra Maria Elena?"

"Si, pero quien quiere hablar con ella?"

"Es Jorge. El de la panaderia de la esquina."

"Ah bueno. Se la paso ahora."

"MAAAAAAA!!!!!!!! El telefono!!"

I tell her this as a big smile is splatter in her face. That just made me curious, I give her the *you better tell me everything when I come back* and made my way to the door as I said goodbye to my family...Here goes nothing...If I don't take the first step... Who will? This is The first step to a better future...
