The Story Of Us

Chapter 2

Tasonna's POV

My phone began ringing loudly as Zaria's signature ringtone "Nebula (Scream)" by Chris Jay started going off (don't ask she's the one who picked that ringtone, not me).

"Yes?" I said as I answered the phone.
"Sonna where are you? Mj is over here freaking out and threatening to throw her binder at someone if you don't hurry up and come..." Zaria began.
"Look y'all, I woke up late my alarm clock is acting dumb so I'm gonna be late for school," I said slightly aggravated.
"Ok, ok. It's cool. Just text me when you get here, okay?" Zaria said.
"Okay" and I hung up.

I paced around my room rubbing my temples and sighed. C'mon Sonna, focus, focus, focus, I thought to myself.
I sighed.

I had already showered so I dug through my dresser drawers and pulled out some black and white Aztec print leggings, a white tank, and my light jean jacket. I put on my black Toms and pulled my curly hair up in a high bun, and I put on a long necklace that had a Eiffel Tower dangling from it. I grabbed up my floral bag and hurried downstairs and grabbed my car keys and left out the house.

**********************************

When I got to school there was no one in the parking lot. I texted Zaria:

Me: Zee, wya?
Zee: going to class hurry up and get ya schedule from the office
Me: K

When I got inside the school building I rushed to the main office and there was a lady I hoped to never see again, Mrs. Kendrick. I gritted my teeth and sighed.

"Morning! So uh I was wondering if I could pick up my schedule?"
Mrs. Kendrick rolled her eyes and didn't bother to even look up at me. She dug through the stacked papers and gave me my schedule.

Just as I was about to leave she said "be glad it's your last year, let's not have a repeat of your freshman year Ms. Tasonna."

I turned around and looked at her "oh, that won't happen ever again as soon as I leave this hell-hole of a place you call a school." I said smiling at her.
"Oh and have a wonderful day as well Mrs. Kendrick." Then I walked out.

**********************************

As I got to Science class I saw a hand go up slightly and wave me over.
The teacher was up at the board and he gave me a look which meant for me to sit down somewhere.

I hurriedly sat in the seat Zee and Mj saved for me and I put my bag down.

"Where in the fricking universe where you Sonna?!" Mj whispered-yelled to me.
"Woke up late but hushhh I ain't getting in trouble on the first day!" I whispered back.
Zee looked back at me and mouthed "you okay?"
I mouthed back "yeah."

She turned forward and I took out my notebook and began drawing illustrations in it while the teacher droned on and on about responsibility, respect, and blah, blah, blah.

Finally the bell rung and almost everyone rushed to get out of class.
I hopped up and grabbed my bag but this boy accidentally bumped into me.
"Hey! Watch where you're going..."
Then I stopped.
Because I knew this boy. I had seen him before.
