Chapter Three

Malia Andrews

Knock knock knock

The rapping sound of the door woke me from my sleep. I picked up my phone from the nightstand beside me to check the time. It was too early in the morning for this shit. Especially when I used Saturday as a sleep in day.

I frowned in confusion and stumbled out of bed to open the front door but was pushed back into the room. My sleepy legs weren't stable so I almost fell before I caught myself. "What the hell." I mumbled.

"Hey best friend why you still sleep?" Alayna asked taking a seat in a chair.

"Yo what you doing here Alayna?" I ignored her question and rubbed my eyes.

"You rude I came to see yo ungrateful ass." She answered. I laid back down before I replied to her. "I love you too but damn you know what time it is? You woke me up."

"Girl why you sleeping so late anyway? It's bout to be eleven I know like hell you ain't pregnant." Even though I was grumpy I couldn't help but laugh at that.

"What ima do with a child hoe? I'm just sleepy as hell I get up five times a week at six so tell me who in they right mind get up at seven on the damn weekend?"

"Obviously your momma them cause she let me in. Get up remember we going to that community thing today at the center ?" She reminded me.

"That shit start at 3, yo voice annoying as hell right now. Wake me up at one if I don't wake up sooner." I know I was being meaner than usual but I am not a morning person at all. Her mumbling was the last thing heard before I fell asleep.

It felt like I was sleep for five minutes when I was shaken awake. Immediately my ears were met with loud ass screaming, "Wake yo dumbass up damn."

I groaned and sat up. The sun's light shined into my room and it was hard to adjust to after just waking up. "It's bout 1:15 I swear I don't know how the hell you sleep so late."

"Okay damn. I'm finn to take a shower." I stretched my legs and made my way to my bathroom. Grabbing a towel and wash cloth from the closet, I turned on the shower to let the hot water run for a while before I stripped out of my night clothes and stepped in. I guess Alayna had music playing from her speaker but it carried off into the bathroom so I hummed along to the songs while I bathed. After I was sure that I was fully woke and my body was clean, I stepped out the shower and wrapped the towel around my body. I seen that Alayna wasn't anywhere in sight so I quickly dried off and threw on a pair of sweats and a T-shirt.

I repeated my daily routine of brushing my teeth and adding aloe Vera to my skin and by the time I went downstairs it was probably a little past two or getting there. "Dawg I'm hungry as hell you ain't get me nothing to eat?"

"And why would I do that?" Alayna asked. She sat on the couch with the TV remote in one hand and in the other she had her phone. "Girl nah I'm talking to Lia ass she just woke up."

"Bitch I'll bring you some McDonald's when I get there." A voice yelled through the phone. I laughed and opened up the refrigerator to find something to eat. "Thank you naé and on my ma fuck you layna."

"I was just playing with her ass I got her some Chick Fil A in the refrigerator." She said into the phone. "Ma'Lia I'll take my shit back stop playing."

"Thank youu hoe I swear I love you to death." I said in appreciation. I know we was going to the cookout but I was hungry as hell the last thing I ate was that dinner last night. I went through the bag and found a box of chicken nuggets some waffle fries with a chicken sandwich. "Girl you spent a brick on me I already know."
