Daya POV.

The summer was finally over. It was so long. My mom, me, and my lil sister moved across the state to live with my grandmother and tomorrow I'd be starting my junior year at a new school. 

I was sitting down in the basement I turned into my bedroom once we moved here. It was big and nice. It gave me privacy too.

My mom came down and sat next to me on the sofa.

"How you feeling?" my mom asked me.

"I'm good. Just a lil nervous."

"I understand that baby. I'm sorry we had to up and move like that all of a sudden," she said.

"Nah don't apologize. It's not your fault you lost your job. They missing out on a bad bitch," I joked with her.

"I would slap your thin ass in the mouth but I still got it huh?" she asked standing up and doing moves from the Ciara Body Party video.

"Where is yo chill Julia?" I asked her calling her by her first name.

"Don't hate the player hate the game," she said walking up the stairs.

"NOBODY SAY THAT!" I yelled up as she shut the door behind her.

My phoned buzzed and I saw I had a text from Zellian. She was my best friend who lived in my old city.

Zellian: Jeff had the nerve to pick Rinashe up from work today. I swear I'm done with that short dick nigga.

I rolled my eyes. Zellian and her boyfriend Jeff were on and off for the past year. They were always arguing and fighting with each other over the pettiest shit. I loved her though.

Daya: You saying that now but gonna be in his bed tomorrow night.

Zellian: The fuck I look like? You schleep ma ma. When you talked to Vante?

Daya: Vante can lick my tip.

Me and Vante started talking at the end of my freshman year. When I realized all he wanted was to do was fuck I cut him loose. When I saw him again he asked for another chance. We were lowkey rocking with each other until I moved at the beginning of the summer.

Zellian: Stunting hard on my brother huh?

Zellian and Vante called each other brother and sister. She was the one that introduced us.

Daya: It ain't nothing to cut that nigga off. I understand though. I'm here and he there. No bad blood, no love lost.

Zellian: Look who just showed up outside my window.

Attached was a picture of Jeff outside her window with puppy dog eyes.

Daya: You gonna let him in?

Zellian: That nigga better get a boombox and start playing some Confessions from Usher outside my window if he trynna get on my good side.

I laughed at her.

Daya: You foolish lol. Goodnight

Zellian: peace. goodluck tomorrow.

I walked over to the bed and set my alarm to wake up the next morning.

When I woke up that morning the whole house was smelling good.

I went to the bathroom to take care of my morning routine and then put on my outfit I had picked out last night.
