Kayla Johnson
"Kayla!" My mother called, I was in my room playing with my hair and trying to find a nice style to wear for picture day tomorrow.
"Yes?" I replied. She didn't say anything. "Yes?!" I asked again. Nothing.
Rolling my eyes I stomped down the stairs and saw my mom in the living room strapping her heels on. She wore a skin-tight black dress with a red leather jacket, red heels and red lipstick.
"I said yes like a billion times. Do you need something?" I asked.
"I'm going out she said as she held the mini mirror to her breasts and adjusted her bra.
"What time will you be back?" I asked glancing at the time on my phone. It was 5:00
"Around ten." She said. My eyed widened.
"What am I supposed to eat until then?" I whined. "There's nothing in the fridge."
"Eat some noodles or make a sandwich" She shrugged and I rolled my eyes. What's up with black mothers always telling you to eat noodles or a sandwich when you're hungry. Oh, and this is their favorite one: Eat some cereal.
"Mom why don't you just leave me with your card so I can order Chinese?" I suggested and she thought about it for a second and I got hopeful.
"Nahh" she laughed and I made a stale face.
"Big mad or lil' mad?" She said and I squinted my eyes. Why is she even using that term? She's not hip.
"Okay I have to go now, lock the door." She ordered before quickly leaving.
"Oh! And call your grandmother if you need anything!" She added and I nodded before quickly closing the door and locking it.
Going to the kitchen, I pulled out a pack of chicken flavored ramen noodles and crunched them up before putting them in a bowl. I added water and put it in the microwave for four minutes.
While I waited for the microwave to go off, I leaned against the counter pulling out my phone and scrolled through Instagram, I had 22 unread messages. My phone is never dry.
I clicked on the first one that read: Princess_Mani
Imani was this girl I had been talking too for a few weeks now. Yes, I said girl.
See, when I was a freshman I considered myself bisexual, but now I like girls and only girls. These niggas are too complicated.
