(Nova)
Quick PSA: I have changed Ryan's character to a girl that looks like she resembles a girl named Ryan More. 💖

[5 months later]

"Ryan!" Yelled my mother. Things have been going great for me. I stopped being bullied, Nova is my sister, I have a family who loves me. What could go wrong?

"Yes?" I say walking into the kitchen. She hands me 400$ and says "I want you to go shopping. Take Nova with you."

I nod my head and say "Thank you Moms." I kiss her on the cheek and walk up to Nova's room.

*Knock Knock Knock*

"Who is it?" I hear Nova's faint voice through the door. "Ryan." I say in my soft mellow voice. "Come in." She says. I twist the doorknob and walk inside to see her sitting on her bed.

"Can you come to the mall with me? I have to buy clothing." I ask. She nods her head and climbs out of the bed. She grabs her wallet and keys and slips on her Nike sandals. I follow behind her and we walk out of the door.

"This is cute." I say holding up a tie dyed Harvard hoodie.

"That is. I might get one too." Nova says picking up her size. We're currently browsing through Forever 21.

"I'm gonna need some of these." I say as I pick up a few pairs of sweatpants.

"Your total is 35.63." The cashier says as she bags my clothing. I went on a mini spree being that a lot of things were on sale.

I hand the lady two twenty dollar bills, and wait for my change and receipt. "Thank you." I say as I grab my bag and my change from the lady. "Receipt is inside of the bag." She says. I nod my head and walk out with Nova.

"So where else do you wanna go?" Nova asks me. "How about H&M?" I ask waiting for approval. She nods her head and says "Sounds great." We walk towards the escalator and step onto it.

"Aye!" We hear someone yell. We keep walking. "Aye Ma!" We hear someone repeat. We finally turn around and it's two tall brown skinned boys. I stand there just awkwardly blinking.

"How you doin?" The chocolate one with bright white teeth said as he smiled at me. I started to turn red and I mumbled "I'm doing fine." He licked his lips and said "That you are." He looked me up and down until his eyes met mine. "Where were y'all about to go?" He asks me. I point and then mumble "H&M."

"Why you so shy?" He asks me. I shrug my shoulders. I glance over at Nova and she's smiling big at the other boy. "So can I have your number ma? Get to know you sometime?" He asks me. He hands me his phone and I dial my number and call it, so I can have his number.

I type my contact name in as "Ryan🌺" I hand him his phone back and he says "Your name is Ryan?" I nod my head. "What's your name?" I softly ask. "Hmm?" He replies signifying that he couldn't hear me.

"I said, what is your name?" I say a little bit louder. "Oh I'm Joshua." I nod my head and put his contact name as "Joshua✨"

"Kay. I'll hit you up later ma." He says flashing his smile one more time. Me and Nova finally walk away and go back on our journey to H&M. "Did you get his number?" She asks me. I nod my head and she says "Atta girl." I laugh as we turn into the H&M store.

We pull up to the house and we see a nice Black Jeep sitting in the driveway all shiny. Our Mom comes outside and then tosses Nova the keys to it.
