Sunday Morning

I woke up to my puppy Price licking my face. I hate when he did shit like this because last time I checked dogs don't have good breathe. Stank ass. As soon as i sat up my momma walked through the door, "Good You're up. I don't have to go through a hassle to get you up." She joked, closing the door behind her as she walked out. I got up look myself up and down in the mirror, Chile you about to be some work.

After taking a nice shower, and completing my Sunday Morning routine I went straight to my closet to decide on what to wear. Scavenging through my closet I found a few dresses: Strapless Black dress, It stopped a bit before my knees. This would go good with my nude heels and a nice thin sweater. Nice plain Jane Grey dress, It would've went nice some black heels and a black thin sweater. Knowing how the congregation was, plus my father. I chose the Grey outfit.

I walked downstairs once I was finished with everything. "Jayla Tere Jones, Dont you think you look a little too old?" My Dad questioned looking at me while his glasses were on the tip of his nose. "Michelle." He leaned back in his chair glaring at her.

"What Chancy?" She said continued to fix whatever she was making in the kitchen. Most likely, a fruit bowl.

"So you approve of this dress." He said getting up standing next to me. Looking me up and down she turned and leaned against the counter.

"There is nothing wrong with her dress." She said eating the rest of her food, while finishing her routine getting ready for church.

"Just this once Jayla." He growled following behind her to finish getting ready as well.

9:00 Church

As we arrived to church I Immediately took my seat on the first pew behind my fathers stand.
We Got To Church And I Immediately Took My Seat On The First Pew Behind My Fathers Stand On The Stage. My Dad Came Up Here and Said

"Alright , Alright . How's Everybody Doing Today ? "
******

"Like I Said You Can't Come To Church On Sunday , Then Go To School Monday And Bump And Grind !" My Dad Said Rapping Up The Church Service . "Bow Your Heads And Close Your Eyes"

We Said A Quick Prayer , Then Dismissed The Church . I Walked Outside With Church Members Asking Me How's School , I Talked To Some Girls My Age . After My Dad And Mom Came Out We Left .

Dinner

"Jayla I Told You To Wear A Dress More Appropriate For Church , You Have Church Members Asking Me What Do You Have On" My Dad Began With His Stupid Nonsense.

"Look , Im 15 Not 14 Long Dresses Are So Last Year" I said Rolling my Eyes At Him And His FoolishNess.

"Little Girl-GCO" He Began Before I Cut Him Off. "Excuse Me ! Little !? If You Dont Leave Me Alone Now Old Man !!" I Stormed To My Room Not Eating Anymore Of The Rice And Gravy My Mom Michelle Prepared .

I Walked To My Room And Plopped On my Bed Thinking About How My Dad Can't Be Happy For me For Once ! For Some Reason I Always Do Something Wrong In His Eyes .

I Grabbed My Nike Shorts And Sports Bra And Fell Asleep.
