Afterschool
I haven't been on the media like that because I only come on if I wanna post a picture or look at funny stuff. I don't get how people can stay on instagram, snapchat, or even twitter all day. Like.. you see twitter tweets screenshots all over the explore page..

I went on instagram and saw that I now had 298K followers and hella tags on the post that had me and Chris on there. I looked at it and saw hella comments under it:

"😍😍😍GOALLLS"
"Where did she buy that outfit??😩🤤"
"Yall cute or whateva.😏"
"Way out yo league sis.."
"This bitch fine as heelll"
"Them jordans look fake."
"She's gorgeous asf!😍😍"
"Yall would be a cute couple fr."

I had read some more of the comments and noticed that most of these bitches in this school was bout hating the fuck out me. Like damn wtf😂. But I knew it was mostly girls from my school. Ion let that shit get to me because bitches always mad bout other people like they cant worry about themselves and fixing that lace front for once. Compton is really full of the bullshit.

"What you readin' on ya phone?" Chris asked glancing at me for a second then putting his eyes back on the road.

"Damn why you being nosey?" I scrunched up my face at him. And he put his hands up in surrender.

"Cuse' me fa askin' damn."

I rolled my eyes and went out of Chris's page.

"You tryna come by me?" He asked.

"I gotta go to work at 3. Even if I didnt have anything to do it's still was gon be a no."

"Why not?"

"I know what you tryna do and all this flirting and huggin up on me ain't working. Lemme just tell you that now."

He sucked his teeth, "c'mon Gold ian tryna hea' none of dat. Nobody tryna fuck , I just wanna get ta know you more like I said befo'."

"Mhm."

"Say look, lemme take you out this weekend if you not busy."

I know he did not just ask me out on a date? Oor..

"Chris bro-

"I jus wanna take you out bro.. as friends." He said sincerely as we pulled up in-front of my house.

I sighed. He's been really nice to me these few days and he cool people so I guess why not? Plus he fine asf anyways.

"Fine whatever."

"Coo, pick you up at 7." He said picking his lips.

"Yeah."

He smiled snd watched as I hopped out the car. I looked back and smiled back at him and walked up the steps to and unlocked the door going inside.

"Girl you still talkin' to that nigga?" Lani asked raising her eyebrow at me with her ugly ass friend Ayesha. But some people call her ayeasta cuz last year everybody found out that she owned some dildos up in her house and was diagnosed with a Yeast infection. After that day I hated the fact of her even standing near me, her hair be fucked up sometimes and she always musty like she was comin from a football practice or somethin.

"We coo." I said trying to keep this conversation short as possible.

"If yall was quote on quote 'cool' he would not even dare to let anyone in them types of cars with him. So wassup?"

"None of yo damn business get the fuck out my face."

"Why you catchin an attitude? You know he gon play you right? Like he did to all the other girls he talked to."

I ignored her because if I say anything else we gon end up fighting. I went upstairs and tried to d most of my homework before getting ready for work. I put on a plain white tee and some light blue jeans with my vans.

I put my hair into a messy bun and grabbed my mini backpack and left the house.

When I came down the steps, people we're glancing over at me. But I just kept walking till I left them town homes. I was walking down the sidewalk till I noticed this Mexican couple arguing in Spanish and then all of a sudden he slapped her. I jumped a little but quickly turned away and walked a little faster so they won't even notice somebody was watching them. This side of town was just bad. I really wanna go see what Los Angeles is like.

It's always been my dream to go to there. I was thinking about modeling, I liked taking pictures but at the same time I don't really know anymore. Lot's of people like to bring a nigga down and come at me sideways when I really don't even do anything to upset people. After my mama left, kinda just feel empty my only support system is my brother and my two best friends. Everybody else just pisses me off.

I was glad I came to work on time because I seriously ain't felt like hearing this lady voice at all. We had a 50% off sale on everything today so it was pretty busy today.

"How you been sis?" Ryanne asked as we we're unboxing new clothes and putting them on hangers.

"Iv'e been ight. Just tryna live my best life you know." I chuckled.

"I feel you. College is just gettin harder and harder. Been studying and studying..then study some more, finals and shi coming up."

"Same. They really going hard on us too."

It was almost the end of the school year until summer vacation which was much needed because I'm honestly tired of waking up early in the morning all the damn time. But then again, I want my diploma first and see what else i'm gonna do next.

"Soo.. you and Chris huh?"

"It's nons like that." I said laughing a little.

"Mhm. Everybody thinks otherwise girl."

"..well .. he did ask if he could hang out with me saturday."

"YOU HAVE TO GO!"

I jumped when she said that. "I am. Just as friends though."

She groaned, "oh c'mon yall both know yall dont wanna be 'just friends'. Am I right or am I right?"

"I don't know. Don't feel like rushing into things anyways."

"Prom is coming up for yall.."

I rolled my eyes as she continued to pipe me and Chris head up if we we're going to be together. Smh.

"Chris and Golden sitting in a tree.. K I S-

"Oh my gosh shut up." I said laughing with her.

I was kinda really excited for Saturday. Couldn't wait to see what he had planned.
