The kiss was just from a dream! Why? I enjoyed that so much!

Damn! I have to get ready for school. So I bluetooth my phone to my speaker and play Sade, Smooth Operator and and Tyler, The Creator, 9/11/ Mr. Lonely. I have a shower and leave my natural hair. I apply a bit of makeup, just a bit of Vaseline and mascara. I put my satin scarf around my head like a headband and put my hair up in a loose bun that still shows my curls. I put my high waisted black mom jeans, a yellow oversized shirt that belonged to my father and I slip on my checkered slip on Vans. For jewellery, I put my silver medium sized hoops and a dainty silver choker. I put a spritz of my Victoria's Secret perfume and I'm out the door.

OH. MY. GOODNESS. I FORGOT. IT'S MY BIRTHDAY. HOW COULD I FORGET MY OWN BIRTHDAY?!

As I am walking to school, I see Levi running behind me. He looked stressed.

"ZANDRA! WAIT UP!"

I stop in my tracks and decide to wait for Levi. Damn, did he look nice running? Amirite ladies?!

"Hey Levi. ¿Que pasa?" I say so excitingly as he looks nervous with something behind his back.

"Hey birthday girl! Sweet cheeks! I got something for you!" He says with such excitement and cheerfulness.

"How did you know it's my birthday?"

"It's on Facebook."

Everybody is on Facebook but anyways, he is such a sweetheart. This made my day. It honestly smells amazing. Just looking at it brings me such happiness.

"Chicken nuggets? You shouldn't have. This is amazing. Thank you so much!" I say as I am about to tear up because the last time I had a chicken nuggets was with my father. I'm wearing his shirt and I get chicken nuggets? I feel like he is with me. Every step of the way.

"Zandra? Are you okay? I didn't realise chicken nuggets made such an impact on you." He says with great concern and worry.

"No. No. Thank you so much. Honestly! Come on! Let's get to school. I don't want to cry on my birthday!"

As I reached into school, I see Ethan with a big smile running towards me.

"Happy birthday Zandra! I hope you like these very much! I know they are much but I hope you like them a lot."

Damn! All these people remembering my birthday!

"Oh wow! Diamond earrings! You shouldn't have. Like really you shouldn't have!" I say very dryly and wish he could take it all back."

"What? You don't like them?" He says very disheartened.

"No. I love them but I don't you should have bought these for me."

"The least you can do is accept them."

So I grabbed the burgundy velvet box and slip it into my bag.

I go to my locker, put my bag away and I see Nora with the FAKEST smile.

"OMG! ZANDRA! HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRLFRIEND!" She says very dryly and fake.

"Thank you so much!" I reply with very same attitude.

I don't understand. If she doesn't like me, why talk to me?

Anyways, as I walk into class, Room 7B, I see Nora talking shit about me.

"WHAT THE HECK MAN?! WHAT'S YOUR DEAL MAN? STEP ON MY LEVEL!" I yell at her in front of the whole class, startling everyone.

"Zandra! I am so sorry! I did not mean any of that! Sorry babe!"

Who does she think she is? Honestly. Get out of here.

Thank goodness we get to leave early today. Honestly, today has been bad. Just bad.

As I am walking home, I see Trey and I quickly run to the other side.

I run home crying and crying. I couldn't see the pavement because of my tears blocking my vision. I am terrified of him.

I get home and slam my bedroom door. I hear my mom running up.

"What's wrong birthday girl? Tell me."

"I saw him. That rat. "

"Aw baby. Come here."

Mother hugs are one of the most beautiful, cherishing things in the world. Her hugs make me forget why I'm even crying.

"Zandra he is not worth crying over. Don't waste your time. Do you want me to get you some food? He is not going to do anything. Not under my roof."

"Yes mama." I say sobbing my head off.

"Okay I'll go get you some food."

Right after, my mom leaves the room, I grab the chicken nuggets and shove it all in my mouth.

"Here. Eat this. Good for you."

"Thanks mama."

I am terrified of him. I hate living this double life. I want to be myself.

You know what? I am not going to cry over this. He doesn't deserve my tears, my time, my presence, my love. I'm not going to talk to him and I am going to forget about him. I am going to sleep on this because this isn't worth anything. It's my birthday and I won't cry on my birthday.

****************************NEXT MORNING****************************

"Good morning Zandra! How are you on this fine morning?" Mom says very cheerfully and optimistic.

"Shit but great!"

"Now, now. Come and eat. I made fried rice and chicken."

I wanted to have a shower first then eat. So I run up the stairs and pick out my outfit. I pick out my black and white joggers with snaps on the side, a tight black shirt and my leather biker jacket. I straightened my hair and decided to wear a bright red lip. To finish of the outfit, I put my gold Casio watch on, my black Air Force and 3 gold dainty chokers.

I quickly finish my food and walk out the door.

"Zandra can we walk together?" Toby yells out as he quickly finishes his food.

"Sure."

"So tell me. Tell me about Levi. Did he do anything bad?"

"No. He's good. Really good. Cool dude."

"Really? Are you sure?"

"Yes. 100%. Trust me!"

"ZANDRA WAIT UP!" I hear Levi calling my name out.

I quickly turn around as soon as I head is voice.

"LEVIIIIII. ¿Que pasa?"

Levi quickly catches up to us.

"Nothing much sweet cheeks."

"Levi." Toby says with a stern voice.

"Good morning to you too." Levi says in a cheerful manner.

As I finally reach school, I see that ugly ass rat. Trey. Standing near my locker with something suspicious. Something that appears to be something that I HATE. Is that a---
