It Hurts When You Realize You Aren't As Important To People Someone As You Thought You Were.

I look over my outfit in the mirror thinking of the comments I'd get today.

"Ew. What girl wears sweat pants as baggy as those?"

"You're wardrobe is still stuck in 6th grade....."

"You could be mistaken for a boy right now."

I sigh going back into my closet and taking the clothes off, I replace it with a pair of black skinny jeans along with an all black over sized T-shirt. I paired it with a baggy jean jacket and a pair of black Ugg's.

I don't even bother to look over my new outfit in the mirror because I know I'm gonna end up changing it. My ways just never seem to satisfy people. I brush my natural curls out and put them in a bun before putting an all black headband on, I didn't feel like doing makeup so I just put on some Carmex.

I grab all my things before walking out my room and downstairs, soon as I get down I immediately go into the kitchen. I ignored the stares I was getting from the family and grab a PopTart along with a water then exit.

It wasn't as hot today, which I enjoyed because I didn't feel like being in the heat. I began my daily walk to school reminiscing on my meal last night, I really wanted another round of ice cream and cookies. But I can't because school starts in 15 minutes, plus I don't even think they sell ice cream at 7:45 in the morning.

Once I got to school I did my morning business and went to class, nothings changed in that few hour time period from last night between me and Dejha.

We're still not talking, and she now sits over with Taye and them, it's only been two fucking days and she's acting like she doesn't know me. We've never went this long without talking to each other, I'm starting to get a little worried.

Even if she continued to be stubborn nothing would really change, it's just one person I deeply care about taken from my life once again. Ahaha, no fucking biggie.

But hey, What's new?

The bell rings as everyone begins to settle down and the teacher starts talking,   I was barely listening though. My mind was caught up on other things.

•••
The bell after first period brings as I gather my things and walk out the classroom. I was wondering if Mrs. Paul was gonna let me eat my PopTart in the class, I was really hungry.

As soon as I, and a few others, entered the class the bell began to ring. I rushed to my seat so she wouldn't mark me tardy and say down; ol dude was already here surprisingly. I'm usually here before him.

I sit down, setting my things in front of me, and giving my undivided attention to the teacher.

"Okay guys. There's now 11 days until your first part of the project is due," She says changing the 12 on the board to an 11. "Everyone should be between the range of question 20-30. I'm giving you guys more than enough time to answer 50 questions, so everyone must be done when the time comes to turn them in." She explains closing the cap on the market and setting it back down on the board marker stand.

"Today you're gonna be watching a video that goes along with a worksheet I have. The video isn't anything but 20 minutes long, the worksheet is only 15 questions. After that you'll keep it and we'll go over the answers on Monday." She states starting to hand the papers out. Once she finishes handing out papers, she walks back to the front and begins to play the video.
