Change of Heart

Jay

I put my key in the ignition and start up my baby. Sadly, I gotta take the doucheface son of Will's to school with me. I offered my lil sister Aaliyah a ride to school so I didn't have to drive to school with just him the whole time. I highkey would've left him if I had the choice, especially after the stunt he pulled this morning. I waited 20 minutes for him to get out the bathroom. When I knocked he acted like he couldn't answer until his father came along and knocked on the door telling him to get out. I would've fought him by now if he wasn't Will's son. Will is a good guy and I respect him as of now and because of that I'm putting up with his great value Tyrese headass son.

I look at the clock on my radio. We only have 15 minutes to get all of us to school because of sonny boy. Jayson and Aaliyah finally walked out the door, but they were both walking without purpose as if we had all the time in the world this morning. As they approached the car Aaliyah was headed to the backseat but Jayson gave her direction to go to the front seat.

He knew not to sit in my passenger seat or I would've cut him. I dont trust him and I don't like anything about him. Unfortunately, I'm the only one in the house seeing beneath his fake acts of chivalry.

He opened the door for her as she laughs and takes a seat. He closes her door then gets in the back.

I rolled my eyes and drove off to her school.

Once we arrived he spoke to her before she left the car.

"Have a good day in school Liyah. Don't let them dumb boys distract a smartie like you."

She just laughs. "You're lamer than Jamie."

"Whatever. Get out, we're gonna be late. Call me later." I cut their shenanigans short cause ain't nobody got time for that.

"I'm going grumpy, geesh!" She opened the door and got out then I sped off to school. I have 9 minutes to get to class on time and see everybody before class starts.

We were just a block away from school and this kid has the audacity to ask me of a favor.

"Hey um, Jasmine, can you drive to McDonald's so I can get breakfast?"

I almost lost myself in that moment. Who the hell does he think I am? Obviously he don't know me. First off, who the f is a Jasmine? Second, I know he not serious. Do I look like a chauffeur or something?

Then I thought about how this looked. Him in the back and me driving. The seating arrangements weren't helping in my case but regardless the kid still got me effed up.

"Aye man. This ain't no damn lyft and we already here anyways." I responded. I didn't bother arguing about my name because I didn't have the energy to and something gave me a feeling he did that on purpose.

He didn't respond but instead he looked around at the school. Observing it before he actually walked into it.

I parked the car, grabbed my backpack and left. He got out the car a few seconds later trying to catch up to me.  

"Jazz wait up!" He called out. He attempted to stop me from walking by grabbing my shoulder and if anybody knows me they know I dont like being touched. Especially by males.

I stopped walking. "Aye man. Don't ever touch me. And you got one more time to call me out my name."

"I'm sorry sis. I just thought you could help me out since I'm new here."

"I'm not your sis or none of that, kid. You can do like every new kid, go to the front office and get someone appointed for that to escort you around." I pointed to the front office as I mentioned it then walked off after I finished my statement.

I bet he just tallying how many times I let him push my buttons.

I have no doubt the kid is a male cause he got some balls for trying my set so decent in one morning alone. I gotta figure out how to tell Will I can't do anything else for his asshole kid anymore. One more ride with him and I'm gonna do something I'd really regret.

Lonnie and I sat at the group's normal morning meet up spot waiting for Chaz and Jamie to arrive.

Soon enough it was only 3 minutes until school started and Jamie was just now walking down the strip toward us. She didn't look too happy and it only made me wonder what could've happened so early in the morning to ruin her mood. I mean none of us are happy to be here but Jamie's expression was more than just a fed up with school look.

"What's wrong babe?" I asked.

"Can we just go to class?" She asks.

I just nod and we walk to class. We didn't talk at all during first period. She pretty quiet and to herself. It obviously seemed like she needed to be by herself so I let her be. When class was over I purposely packed my bag slowly to see what she would do. She packed up and just walked out of class not saying a word. I didn't want to get mad but her immaturity wasn't making me happy.

I was by myself when I had a whole ass girlfriend in every class with me. I was getting a little fed up by lunch and something just made me think of the number incident at the hospital. I did not forget that she had a piece of paper with some random hoe's number on it that fell out of her pocket at the hospital.

That memory only reminded me that I had to get her back for that stunt. Instead of getting caught like her I'll reveal it to her "unintentionally" and just see how she likes it.

I walk into the cafeteria planning it out step by step. Then just like that my eyes come across a new face. He almost looked like some celebrity that I just can't think of the name of. He looks like someone I could use. She doesn't like dudes at all, so I know it'll strike a nerve with her and it'll work out perfectly.

He's not my type so nothing gonna really happen between us, I just need somebody's number that'll be good enough to strike a nerve with Jamie. I need her to feel what I felt so she'll learn to never try that with me ever again. Anything you can do I can do. Mo can do everything better than you.
