"I think this is up for discussion. I mean, for starters, I'm small.There's nothing about me that's even remotely intimidating and, actually, on numerous occasions, I've been told that just looking at me makes people laugh.I also don't do anybody any favors by being the smartest person in the room.And no one wants to feel dumb when they can't pick up what I'm layin' down. It's belittling. You follow?" Ruby asked. We all hummed."You see, this is what I'm talking about. I transcend the universal plane of thought and linger on the precipice of the celestial realm.I can't even keep up with myself.But it's who I am. But if all of that isn't convincing enough, then dare I remind you of my sensitive skin and inability to wear thick cotton." I took my streaks and sent it to my people.
"What are you talking about?" I said as i hit send to my streaks.
"I can't hide my sweat. And I sweat profusely when I'm nervous. Which I am right now. I mean, look, full clam. No shell. I rest my case."
"Mmm." Jamal hummed. We all started to clap. "That was impressive."
"So eloquent." Monse said.
"You told me why he shouldn't do it. Which is exactly why he should! - Congratulations. You got the job. Again." I said as i walked away. I saw Carlos. I wrapped my arms around him. He believes we are a thing. We never made it official.
"Aye, mami." He whispered in my ear. "Theres a open closet."
"Oh yeah?" I bit my lip. We walked in the closet and started to make out. "Carlos." I moaned. Then we jumped off each other as we heard a knock. I quickly put on my shirt and slowly open the door to find Monse.
"Uh yes?" She gave me a look.
"After school. Ruby's house. 3:30."
"For what?" i asked her.
"Practice." She try to look in the closet.
"Ill be there."
"Whos in there with you?" She asked.
"Its just me." I nervously smiled. "3:30, ill be there! Love you Monse!" I closed the door.
"One more round?" Carlos asked.
"No, but later." I gave him a quick kiss. I gathered up my books and bag and walked out of the closet. After a long day at school, i went home to a empty house yet again. Im not even surprised. I dropped my bag in my room and headed to Rubys house. I saw Jamal and Monse roll up with Cesar behind them. Great.
"You're here to decorate Rubys room." Monse whispered to me. She rang the doorbell. Ruby answered. "We're here to feng shui your room! That's why we're here."
"I don't have my own room, but," he took a deep breath. "I have a boner." I looked away. "My cousin just moved in. Not like my cousin cousin, like, "What's up, cuz?" You know, like fam, but not fam." He likes someone. Uh okay. Um. Im not hurt. I mean we're just friends!
