She's Not Jennifer

Who's this

Phoenix, Arizona
10:00 Am

Valentina

    THUMP! I hear something loud hear the floor.

" VALENTINA!" I can barely hold in my laughs as I hear my stepmom scream.

I have a love-hate relationship with this woman. She's screaming because of my latest prank on her. I put olive oil on her bathroom floor while she was in the shower because she said I have to work at my fathers restaurant all week.

I prank her every couple of days or whenever she pisses me off. It's hilarious.

" VAL-EN-TINA RAM-IR-EZ ROSE." She yells again. She always is breaking down someone's name. That's when you know you better stop.

Lauren my lovely stepmother busts in my room in a towel and wet hair as I'm dying of laughter.

" YOU THINK THIS IS FUNNY MIJA!" My body is shaking I can't close my mouth. That's how hard I'm laughing.

" I ALMOST CRACKED MY PHONE BECAUSE OF YOU!" She's yelling in her thick Spanish accent, it's so cute. Still though, that's what she gets.

" Love you too-" I look at her up and down. " Aw did you fall?" I say sarcastically.

" Stop acting like this. You know exactly why you are being forced to work this week." She raises an eyebrow. " If you pull something like this again..." she gives me "the look" and walks out.

I'm still gonna do it. She loves me though.

After about 10 minutes of she is ready to drive me to the restaurant.

" Come on mija. Your father just texted me." She's rushing me while I'm trying to grab my charger.

" Ok Hold on." I say irritated because she didn't even give me a heads up about her taking me right now.

I finally get all my things I need for the day and follow her out to the car.

Trinidad

I arrive back in my home town after being out of town for two weeks doing interviews and getting my career on track.

"Ayo Trin, you hungry my man?" One is my friends ask as we sit in the living room of my house.

" Yeah."

" Leggo den because I got the munchies." Another one of my high ass friends tells me.

We hop and the whip and start driving around deciding where we wanna eat...Roberto's sounds nice. I haven't had a nice meal in a minute.

Valentina

I start my shift in this ugly waitress uniform. My dad thinks my dress is too short and tight. I didn't pick it out. They just gave me one.

In reality it's not that tight. That's just my dad being a dad.

" Valentina, you have a group of guys that just got here in your section. Get to doing your job."
My father says from the kitchen.
