Summer Love by Tatti-Yanna

Summer Love

As I Slide Down My Locker I Sigh In Relief.

"Summer" I Breathe Out Looking Up At my Best friend Shaliene.

She Squeals and jumps up and down causing her brown curls to bounce as if she's in a movie. I swear she's like a model trapped in this dingy high school. Besides the Facts That She's absolutely Gorgeous, she dresses like she shops out of a tumblr girls closet. Right now she's wearing a white spaghetti strapped shirt that says "Princess" on it in bold pink letters with a black leather skirt. She paired that up with some black converses. She's bouncing up and down in the hallways because of me mentioning the word summer.

"I knowww! Soon I'll be on the beaches of Miami getting a tan I'm a supper cute bathing suit while some cute life guard is fanning me " she says using her hands to give me a visual. "I know and I'll be home watching Netflix all by myself " I say kindve bumming the mood.

"Oh stop it , your gonna have fun ! I'll even help you throw a party" She says holding her hands out indicating that she wants me to get up. I take her hand and she pulls me up. I chuckle at her statement , me ? Party? That's a no no. She walks towards the door dragging me along going on and on about our summer coming up. Now this isn't just any regular summer. This is the summer before senior year , which means I'm almost getting out of this hell hole.

"You know Kim it's not very nice to daydream while I'm talking !" Shaliene says while I'm looking all over the hallway , I'm just so happy that I'm getting out of this place.

"You know not to Call me that" I Say with a half smile. Being That My name is Kimberley Johnson You could imagine the Annoying nick names I get (Kim , John , Son-Son). The only nick name I allow is Kimmy. Shaliene rolls her eyes as she opens the school door to the parking lot. "Whatever Kimmy , I'm just saying this could be our summer ! Let's Turn Up! She says shaking my shoulders. "Without Me" A certain someone says behind Shaliene. She turns around and leaps for her shit face boyfriend Nayshon. As usual he has that face that makes him look like he's an elephant Giving birth as he raps his arms around Shaliene's waist. If you wondering why I hate him so much , it's because he's not the best boyfriend. Besides him cheating on my Best friend more than once , he also hit her. But she's still with him and I always wondered why and then I read The Perks Of Being A Wallflower , And I learned that People accept the love they think they deserved. So now as I'm watching my best friend put up with this loser, my heart kindve breaks because she's awesome.

"Hey John , You look nice today " The Shit Face says. We aren't the bested of friends simply because he's an idiot and he knows I don't like when people call me that. "Yea, I picked out her outfit " Shaliene says. I looked down at the cute outfit that Shaliene did I facts pick out for me a pink crop top with blue ripped boyfriend jeans with white converses and a gold necklace. "That pink really brings out your eyes" Shaliene says. She's ALWAYS talking about my eyes. Un-like other Girls I have hazel and green eyes and that is because my dad has green and hazel eyes. We all get in

Nayshon's car and he drives to my house. "You know it's a good thing you have Shaliene as a friend John , with out her you Would be a nobody." Nayshon says. This is another reason why I hate his guts. He has absolutely no filter on his mouth when it comes to me. I hate having to sit here , hearing all these comments come at me and have to act like I'm fine. "Oh Baby, You stupid " Shaliene says giving him a kids on the cheek. That is a regular. She never sticks up for me. I'm guessing it's because she loves him and can't see all the wrong in him. But being in love and Being completely oblivious to the fact that he's a jerk are two different things. As soon as the car stops I hop out of the car to get out of this hurtful conversation. I walk fast towards the door but Shaliene's voice slows me down "Well Okay ? Bye?" I turn around feeling

Bad that I walked away without saying bye. "I'll talk to you later" I say awkwardly. I turn around and enter my house so quickly that I nearly fall. I look out the window breathing very hard to make sure there gone. I sigh in relief seeing that there not there.

"Hey calm down sugar, I'm pretty sure the big bad wolf won't hurt you " I hear a country accent say from behind me. That could only be one person. I turn around to see my older sister Shy-Anne. She's been living in Texas For A while until she had to come down to watch me for the summer. Let's just say me and her don't get along.

"Oh My My My, My Dear sister Shy-Anne , What And Unpleasant Surprise" I say mocking her accent. She drops her tea and walks over to me. "Oh shucks doesn't my little sister have a mouth on her" she says until she gets close enough to my face that I am feel her breathing on my forehead. She pretty tall. "Where's Mom ?" I say feeling just a bit intimidated. "She's where she'll always be. In her room sobbing over daddy. Accept this time she's actually doing something about it." Shy-Anne replies walking over to a family portrait. "Shut up " I say walking up the stairs to my moms room.

You see she kind of right about the whole mom thing though. I walk into the room and see a suitcase on her bed with it half full. I look around the room to see my moms but popping out of her closet. "Hey Mom" I say sitting on her bed. She gets up right away and says "hi baby girl , did you see your sister?" I give her a face and say "yes I saw the she devil". She puts clothes in her bad saying " now now baby, please get along with your sister while I'm gone. She has been there for you when I couldn't." She right. She is but I have no sympathy for my sister. Oh well that she didn't have a regular teenage life because she had to take care of my while mom was picking herself up. Shy-Anne was the one who let her drop in the first place.

"Oh Don't Worry Kimberly. I'll Fix Our Family. " My Mom Reassures Me.

My family can't be fixed. It's gone already. But my mom thinks that trying to get my dad back will fix all of the worlds problems. To be honest I think she's doing this for herself. She needs someone to love her so badly because she doesn't love herself. So she's gonna go down to New York to try to fix things with my Dad. Leaving me with Shy-Anne and My Little Sister Jasmine by ourselves in this house for the rest of June.

"By the Way Jasmine is going by Grandmas , I don't trust Shy-Anne with her " My mom says zipping up her shit case.

"Oh but you trust her with me?" I say in surprise. My mom puts her suit case on the floor and grabs her purse. "You can hold you're own weight right darling ?" She asked looking in the mirror. She walks over to me and hugs me. "I'll see you in July Hun" she says squeezing me. And just like that she's off on her adventure. Great. Summers finally here I guess.
