☆Miesha★ (Editing)

*Chapter 1*

~Take me to the king, I don't have much to bring, My heart is torn in pieces, It's my offering, Take me to the king.~

"Truth is I'm tired, Options are few, I'm trying to pray, but where are you? I'm all churched ou..." "Miesha that's great, but can you sing it without all the movement? It's distracting." "Sure." My name is Miesha Harvard. I am 17 and a Senior at North Heights High. I sing in the First Baptist Church choir and we have a recital coming up and we're singing Take Me To The King by Tamela Mann. I'm an all A's student and is hated by many people. My parents, well my mom committed suicide when I was 3 years old and my dad works as a cashier at Walmart. I never knew my grandparents on my mama side because they both had passed away when I was only 10 months. My dad parents live in Memphis, Tennessee and I never get to see them, so my dad is all I have.

"Truth is I'm tired, Options are few, I'm try..." The teacher, Mrs. Dearn, interrupted me. "Sweetheart, what's up with all the moving? You know what? We're gonna work on that but time's up." I rolled my eyes and I grabbed my stuff and walked out the church to my dad's car. I'm tired of Mrs. Dearn.

"How was practice?" I huffed. "I was moving a lot and Mrs. Dearn was on my butt about it." He laughed as he pulled out the parking lot. "I gotta work the late shift so are you okay with being at home by yourself?" I chuckled. "Now dad, you know I am not going to be at the house by myself. I'm bringing Kristina over."

He shook his head. "I've been meaning to talk to you about that. I don't want you hanging out with Kristina anymore." My smile started fading. "Are you kidding me? That's my homie I can't stop hanging with her." "You will do as I say. She is a bad influence on you. You're just 17." I rolled my eyes. "How is she a bad influence on me?" "One, she's not a virgin and she can lead you into having sex, Two, she cusses too much, Three, she's ghetto and don't have any respect, Four, just look at what she wears. She looks like a hoochie mama with her cleavage all out." "But dad it ain't like I'm going to do those things. We've been friends since the 4th grade and I haven't act like her yet." "My answer is final."

He pulled up to the house and I hugged him bye. I got out and walked into our 2 story house. I grabbed my Samsung Galaxy 4 out of my back pocket and called Kristina. "What you want?" "You to come over. My dad was being a fucking bitch I swear. He said I can't hang with you anymore because you are a bad influence on me." I heard her smack her lips. "No way. Make me have to kill his ass. You might be without a daddy."

"Don't kill him. He is all I have." "Well he should've never said that." Our maid, Brea, walked into my room with my laundry. "Are you still coming or nahh?" "Yea I'll come and I'll see if Taioni wanna come too." "Ok see ya." I hung up and Brea was putting up my clothes. "Don't you have anything better to do than clean our house and do our laundry?"

"Well, this is the only job that I can earn money. Imma 17-year-old girl. I need money." I laid on my bed. "Brea, you're one pretty girl and you don't deserve to be our maid. Take the day off. Be with your man." She laughed as she finished putting up my clothes. "I don't have a man. Not planning on having one either." My mouth dropped. "No way. Ayye #single." We shared a laugh. "You is not about to stay here cleaning this hellhole. You're going out with me."

Brea put her hands on her hips. "How? I don't have anything to wear." I got up and went into my closet. "I'll give you an outfit. Anything to help a friend." Brea laughed. "The 2 years I've been working here you haven't acknowledged me, now you wanna call me a friend." I rolled my eyes. "I know I haven't been the best to you, but you seem like a cool girl to be friends with." Brea wiped her hands on her apron. "I should get back to work. Thanks for the invite but no thank you. I'll keep my job."

"Your lost but anything in my closet is available." My speaker rang. I pressed the green button. "Yes?" "Ayye Miesha, buzz us in." I pressed the orange button and walked out of my room. I walked down the stairs and opened the front door. "Taioni, Kristina." They ran up the porch stairs and hugged me. "Are you ready? Our clothes are in our bags. Let's get ready."

"I decided to invite the maid. I couldn't just let her clean this house while we're partying." Kristina popped her gum. "Why are you worried about her? She'll be okay." We went upstairs to my room and Brea was nowhere to be found. I went into my closet and found a black spaghetti strap, v-neck, mid-thigh dress. I got my black wedges and set them all on the bed.

Taioni and Kristina were getting dressed. I took a shower and then put on some lotion. I put on my robe and walked out the bathroom. "Oh y'all scared me." Taioni, Kristina, and Brea was standing there looking cute. "I see someone decided to come." I grabbed some underclothes and slipped them on under my robe. I took off my robe and slipped on my dress. I sprayed some perfume on my body and put on some jewelry. I grabbed my shoes and slipped them on. "Who's ready to go party?" I grabbed my keys and we walked out the house.
