"Ree wake up", Roshon says jumping on my bed. "What you want dipshit? School don't start till next week." I say trying ro hit him with my pillow. "You forgot!" He yelled, "What are you talkin' about?" I asked him as I sat up rubbing my eyes. Man what time is it anyway. As I checked my phone, I realized it was 6am. Freaking 6am! "Moms boyfriend is coming over today remember".

Oh yah, she always does this but we never show up. She expects us to be accepting of him, when we clearly want our dad back. Our dad didnt walk out on us like some dads do. Our mom kicked him out, for what reason I dont know.

"Right, so when's he coming?" I asked Shon as I set out an outfit for some "fun", more like trouble. Its just something we do to let out some steam. We usually go out clubbing,  drinking, smoking, robbing, running from the cops and so forth. "Um I think I over heard her say 6:50am",

She thought we wouldn't be up till later, so we'd have no choice to associate with him. "Okay, go get ready while I take a shower and we'll leave in 40 minutes," and with that we went our seperate ways.

After my shower, I went out to my room and lotioned up my entire body with my candycane scented lotion. Once I finished using the lotioning I put on my black lace victoria secret bra and matching underwear (I cant say panties its weird.) on.

Then I put on my pieced camo leggings with the slits down the side. With it I wore my green tube top and Roshons black "homies" sweatshirt and my combat boots. My did my hair down in ringlets and putting on a little eyeliner and mascara,  keeping the natural look. When I was done it was 6:35, so I messaged Shon, telling him ill meet him at the car.

Then,  I turned my phone off and left it on my bed as I climbed out my window. Which was on the second floor may you ask. I lowered myself from the sill where I'm only 5ft away the ground and then dropped. As I walked towards the car, I heard yelling coming from Shons room. Then 5 minutes later he came out stomping through the front door.

"Moms callin' the cops reporting us as run aways again." Shon say, as I roll my eyes. "Wanna ditch the car once we get far enough", I asked. "Yea lets go, we got invited to a college party tonight. So lets hope we dont get caught in time." Lets hope.

Its 10 and we finally got rid of the car. Now were just walking around the city looking for something to do. "Man Shon it's still early to be doing anything.

Can we please find somewhere so I can like pass out for couple more hours?", I whined. If you were me you would be tired to. "I guess. Lets find a phone booth and ill call Jake to give us a ride to his dorm." If your asking who Jake is, well I have no idea. Roshon has so many college friends, you would think that he was in college himself.

"Ok..." so we went into the mall that I spotted across the street. As we were heading towards the food court for a payphone I saw the new Jordans on sale. "Shon imma be in here, so find me when you call Jake". I told him as I walked into Finish Line. I tried on some gray true flights and then some blue son of mars.

Picking between those two I went with the grey tru flights. When I was bout to buy them Roshon walked in, "Ree what are you doing? You know you aren't suppose to buy anything with debit or credit." It's sad but true because mom could track us. "Yeah I remember", I say putting my head down.
