Erica p.o.v.Hey my name is Erica I'm 17 years old And I'm a brown skin beauty 😝I'm 5'2 i have naturally curly hair as well . I never knew who my biological daddy but I did grow a bond with my younger sister father that was until he was looked up for something so stupid I go to Hill Crest highschool I live with my 35 year old mother and my 14 year old sister kya, my household is not like a regular household my mother go's out every night and she thinks I think she's working...... She is working alright.
I'm basically the mother around here I watch after my bad ass sister Kya when my mama isn't around. And she hangs out with this ghetto ass girl she calls her bestfriend I been trying to tell her something not right about that girl she gives me a bad vibe she not up to any good but she don't listen they get into trouble all the damn time I wouldn't say they it's always Kya in the trouble mostlyIt was a Sunday the last day of the weekend before we went back to school on Monday. I was at home mama was laid out on the couch knocked out before she went to work later and I was in my room bored out of my mind and Kya was outside in the front of the house with her friends, and then my phone rang it was my friend Tyresha........
Me: hello
Tyresha: hey gurl wyd
Me: nothing in this house aint doing shit
Tyresha: come hang out with me
Me: yea only if you coming to get me ,mom's car ain't got no gas
Tyresha: sure if you got some gas money
Me: bitch how you gon invite me out and ask for gas money too
Tyresha: Ughh fineeee bitch it's not like you give me any usually anyway
Me: Damn !
Tyresha: I'll be there in 10mins tho
Me: Ight bye
I loved tyresha she was my bestfriend she's 5'4 dark skin she got long hair because she wore weave mostly but it ain't nothing wrong with that .She has always been there for me when I needed her she never let my down and she never gave reason not to believe her. And that's why she's my bestfriend .
As I walked outside my front door to the summer scenery my sister and her friends were there and one of them had the nerve to ask me where the hell I was going I couldn't do nothing but laugh cause who she talking to ......Tee tee: where you going Erica
Erica: 😂😂
She didn't have any response hell I wouldn't either
Erica: Kya be in the house by 8:00p.m
Kya: 8:00p.m. mann its still gon b light outside
Erica: ight 11:30p.m. and you better be in the damn house
Kya: ight
Tyresha finally got here and it took longer than 10mins more like 20mins ha ass never on time
Tyresha: Erica come on
I walked over to her car and got in
Erica: yo ass took longer than 10mins
Tyresha: my bad girl I had to make a quick stop
Erica: ummm hmmm where we going
Tyresha: to a party with a couple people I kno
Erica: a party with a couple people is not a party and party's usually don't start at 5:40p.m. in the damn evening
Tyresha: Well shit a hangout spot
When we got there it was hella people in the front of the house it looked more like a bbq but no damn food . In the inside of the house it was just more people a lot of guys too .It was a guy who called out to Tyresha and she walked over to him and I followed behind because I didn't know where the hell I was going
Mike: Aye Tyresha
Tyresha: Hey babe
And she leaned over and kissed him and she introduced me to him and his brother......
Tyresha: baby this my bestfriend Erica
Mike: hey how you doing
Erica: hello
Mike: Yo bro
Marshawn: yea bro wassup
Mike: C'mere I want you to meet are guys
Marshawn: Who i-
Mike: You remember my girl Tyresha
Marshawn: yea hello sweetheart
Mike: This her best friend Erica

Marshawn was fine he had pretty gray eyes brown skin he looked like he was 6'4, And he was a dread head
Marshawn: How old are you beautiful

Marshawn: Lol you funny
Me: Naw you just laughing cause I'm right lol but it's cool I understand you do what you gotta do
Marshawn : I like you shortie you alright
Me and Marshawn had a decent conversation and I found out him and Mike were really step brothers and they were drug dealers too which I already figured. Until Tyreaha called my name and it was 11:23 p.m. I had to get home mama was probably out like normal and I knew Kya was still out in the streets when I told her lil bad ass to be in the house by 11:30p.m.....
Tyresha: Erica come on we headed out
Me: ight I'll see you later Marshawn
He told me we should hang out another time and we exchanged numbers .Then me and Tyresha left the house ......
