"So how was your first day or school?" my mother asked me while she cooked dinner. My dad wasn't home yet.

"It was pretty good actually. I got 2 new friends named Asia and Tasha. I think I could get used to going to school with African Americans. " I said. She smiled.

"Well, that's nice sweetheart. Maybe they could come over this weekend?"

"Sure I'll ask them tomorrow. I didn't get their numbers." She nodded.

"Alright. Go get washed up dinners almost done." I headed upstairs to my room. I got out my selfie game to strong shirt, black cotton shorts, and my undergarments and headed to the shower. After washing, I braided my hair into 2 big braids and went back downstairs. My dad was home already eating his dinner. He looked at where I was and smiled.

"Hey Iggy, how was school?" He asked. Thats his nickname for me by the way. That was my first word.

"It was good." I told him the same thing I told mom. We all ate, and talked about random stuff. We do this every dinner.

"Goodnight guys, Im off to bed." I said kissing an hugging my parents.

"Goodnight sweetheart, sleep well."

I woke up to the alarm on my phone going off. I got out of bed and went to my closet. I got out a pair of High waisted denim pants, a white bandage crop top, and my timberlands. The only shoes I got that the people at my school wear is my timberlands and some Jordan retro 6s with purple in them.

I washed up really quick. did my hygiene routine & put my clothes on. I unloosed my hair from the braids and added light makeup. I grabbed my phone and jacket and left my room. I said my goodbyes to my parents and left the house.

Since school didn't start until 15 minutes, I went to Starbucks to get me a Carmel Frappichino.

I pulled up to the student parking lot, and got out of my car. I spotted Asia and Tasha. I walked over there towards them. They looked over at me.

"Hey Nel" Asia said hugging me.

"Hey guys." I said hugging back.

"Oo snowbunny thank she all cute with her timbs on! I see you!" Tasha said. I laughed. We walked into the school. The bell was about to ring in a couple of minutes.

"We'll ima see yall next block, Bye boos" Tasha said going to class. Me and Asia had honors classes.

When we got to our history class, our teacher wasn't there yet.

"Aye yall Know where Mrs. Martian at?" Asia asked some of the students. They shook their heads no and She shrugged it off. I went to go sit at my seat, when I noticed the students were starring at me again today. I called Asia over so she could sit with me.

"Why are people always starring at me like they never seen a white person before?" I asked with aggravation in my voice. She laughed a little bit.

"Girl don't worry about them. They just not use to havin a white person at the school, Or in Harlem period." I nodded. "You know the last white person at oue school got shoot right?" She asked. I looked at her shocked.

"Forreal?! Uh I'm about to leave" I asked e grabbing my bags. Asia started laughing.

"Calm down girl I'm just playin" she said holding her stomach.
