I decided to skip out on going to Tati's today. After my flop of a plan yesterday, I was growing exhausted of all the silly back and forth games going on between me, him and Allen. Something so dumb and trivial had me in a mood all day and I just couldn't wait to get home and flop down on my couch.
...
After sleeping for a good three hours, I was abruptly woken out of my sleep with Amara trying to FaceTime me. I truly did miss her so instead of being a bitch and declining and taking my ass back to sleep, I answered to her laughing in her purple strobe-lit room. I'm sure she could tell I was in kind of a stank mood, so she wanted to cheer me up a little bit.

"Whatchu laughing at, girl?" I asked her sounding like a full grown man. Before I could even react to the sound that just came out of me, I was cut off by Amara laughing almost until she was crying. I was exhausted and bothered, and had it been anyone else they would be hung up on and blocked, but not my Amara.
I had a pre-rolled blunt on my nightstand and lit it right before I answered her call. I blew the smoke out and smiled at her silliness.

Amara and I met 9 years ago in the 7th grade when I had transferred to my last middle school in Washington. I had no friends, and being in the middle of the suburbs, Amara was the only other girl there who had some type of black in her so we related on that level. For the earlier part of our "friendship", I truly didn't like her or appreciate her company but I had no one else to hang out with and she was quite the loner, too. She was far too bubbly for me and when I had a few issues with my health at school, she asked way too many questions about everything and she made me uncomfortable. Eventually, I had to let her know how I was feeling and ever since she's laid off unless I need her help, which I almost always do. She's truly a gem.
