BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP. "Shit I'm going to be late for school". I got up quick from my bed and started taking off my clothes and getting in the shower and started to bathe. I started to think about how I can manage my job and school at the same time since I have no one to pay rent for the tiny ass apartment I live in. My mom died from a overdose from cocaine and my dad killed himself  after since he couldn't handle the death of my mom. Before they even died there weren't good parents from the beginning. Mom would always go out with her friends and get drunk and high and well my dad, he was barely home and I never really see him but he still provide money for the house and mom too but they would forget to pay the bills so I would I have to do it. Now my parents gone, I had to get a job and move into a one bedroom apartment and pay the bills my self. But this has become natural for me since I been alone at the age of 16 for six months since my parents died. My new job, where I'm a waitress is taking most of my school time where I should be studying so I could get a scholarship because I can't afford my small apartment and college. God damn! Being an adult is hard.

After I was done with my shower  and dried myself off and put on my matching set of underwear and quickly started to pick out my clothes out my dresser. I took out a black crop top and Adidas pants then I pick out my white and black adidas shoes. I put on my clothes then grabbed my black hoodie and threw it on me and grabbed my book bag and quickly head out the door. I walked down the stairs in my apartment heading out to school then I was stopped by Grandma Mary. "Hey baby" " Hi Grandma Mary". No, she is not my grandma, it was just when I first met her she told me to call her Grandma Mary. "Why you in a rush?" "I'm late for school. I forgot to set my alarm cause I was tired". Grandma Mary has been like a real grandma to me she would sometimes bring me home cooked meals to my place but she dint know that my parents were dead and I lived alone. "Ok baby but if get in trouble, girlllllll, I'm a smack you. You hear". I chuckled and said "yes I hear you Grandma". I agreed even though I never got in trouble before (sarcasm).She smiled at me and said "Good girl, now go on get." I chuckled again and started run to school. My school wasn't far from here but I was running to my school so the trip there was shorter.

I entered the school, Riverdale High and stopped to catch my breath then quickly walked to the main office. I walked up to Ms.Hansen desk to get a late slip. "Late again I see" she scowled at while I nodded me. I don't know why but Ms. Hansen never liked me but I didn't give a fuck she could hate all she wants. "Maybe if you stopped playing around at night you would get better sleep and wake up on time" she said giving me the late slip. "BITCH SHUT THE FVCK UP. WHILE YOU IN YOUR YOU ROOM MASTURBATING WITH YOUR VIBRATOR LAST NIGHT I WAS MAKING MORE FUCKING MONEY THEN YOU EVER WILL IN YOUR ENTIRE SAD BITCH ASS LIFE". Instead of that I said "I will head your advice and focus more on school" and snatch the slip out of her hand and smiled. What's her problem, like I never did nothing to her. Man sometimes I just want grab her burnt one dollar weave and beat the shit out of her but I can't cause I need to get into college and having a prison record won't help my chances at getting a scholarship.

I walked to my locker and put my book bag in the locker and grabbed my books for my classes. I walked down the hallway and stopped in front of my class and open the door. The door made a squeaky sound so everybody looked up from what their doing and had their eyes of me. "Ms. Shannon glad to see you class." I quickly handed in the slip and walked to the back my classroom and sat my desk. "Ok class now wright down your notes from the board in your notebooks". I took out my notebook and started jotting down the notes from the board then I felt something hit the top of my head. I notice it was a crumble up piece of paper that hit me. I looked up and saw a two guys and two girl holding in their laughter and chuckling, I rolled my eyes and continued to write down the notes. They kept doing it and ever time I spot them the turn around pretending to do their work.
