College Life

Episode 1: Getting to Know

"I just don't think I can do long distance ya' know? So maybe this break up with be what's best for us." I hit send.

Breaking up with my boyfriend of four years, I know a long fucking time right. You're probably like "Sis, why you leaving a four year relationship" but let me tell you everything is NOT always what it seems. If you don't get it you'll understand later. I was leaving for college in a couple days and couldn't have been anymore excited to finally be getting the fuck up out my mothers house.

"Dejah!" I heard from downstairs. I rolled my eyes and got to walking.

"Yes" I replied, "Here look I couldn't get you much, but don't you got a meal plan? You better use that shit" My selfish mother replied. I opened the bag to see one box of pop tarts, two boxes of hot pockets, and a bunch of other shit. "Uh if we get food stamps than why couldn't you get more?" Of course I didn't say this, but I thought it "Thanks" I mumbled under my breathe and tied my bags up so my siblings knew not to touch anything in them. You see my mother gets food stamps and shes fucking loaded, I mean that little grey card must have thousands, but does it really matter? cause the last thing she does is feed her kids.

*DING*

"I'm outside" I read

"coming"

I opened my front door to see my best friend Theresa, she wasn't going away for school so we thought it would be best to spend as much time together as possible before I leave. I had met Theresa freshman year of high school, she's Jamaican, accent so thick you'd think she just hopped off the boat, her ass? FAT AS FUCK. I mean i'm not gay, but hey my girl is packing. We both cheered together and had to wait for the West side bus after practice. After the months went by we became mad cool and eventually she became like a sister to me, then sophomore year we found out we're actually cousins crazy right?

"I broke up with Craig today" I told her closing my house door.

"Dejah noooo!" she replied with a locked jaw.

"Yeah bitch close your mouth, see you bitches thought I'd never be able to do that"

I was with Craig since my freshman year of high school and what made him different was that he was white. Although bi-racial couples are the new "thing" this time around he had been my first everything, so honestly I thought he'd be my last, but in a relationship when one person is putting more effort in than the other shit happens. He had cheated on me 3 times in the whole relationship so you can see why I wouldn't be able to trust him while I was away at school.

"You drinking?" she asked me as we both entered the liquor store.

"Come on now, do you know who you're talking to? of course I'm drinking." I replied

Although Theresa was 20 and I was 19 we both had fake ID's cause honestly why not? Theresa had bought "Hypnotic" some blue shit that people love to mix with Henny and make some drink called "The Hulk", but we weren't trying to be superheros today. I bought "Svedka" that Russian shit no one can pronounce.

Now Theresa and I are two different types of people, shes quiet and reserved basically the mom of the group so when it came to drinking and smoking it wasn't quiet something she NEEDED to do, but me on the other hand, Your girl Dejah was a straight up pothead I mean I need to be high before I do just about anything I don't drink too much only on special occasions. We had left the liquor store and walked to the beach. Soon as we pulled up I started to do what I do best and roll my blunts.

First I gut the backwood and I only smoke Woods and Leafs cause everything else is trash, Then I take my weed and I break it up evenly on my wood, once I got it evenly broken up I began to flex and boom perfecto a flexed wood.

"Are you smoking?" I asked "Eh maybe lata" she replied

"Nigga now or never"

As time goes by and Theresa and I became drunk and high we decided to call it a night. I had only lived 5 minutes away from the beach and she had only lived 20 minutes so we'd both end up walking home fucked up.

"Text me when you get home" I said before we split ways because she had lived farther than me.

As I'm stumbling to get home I pull out my phone and of course like a dumb bitch I began to drunk text Craig.

"This is your fault, if you hadn't did what you did maybe i'd be able to trust you enough while i'm away at school, but I can't" I sent him, but then later regretted it.

*DING*

I look down at my phone quick hoping that it would be Craig, but nope it was Maxine she was RSVP to my graduation breakfast. "FUCK" I screamed I had forgot all about that. I had planned a graduation breakfast with all of my friends two days before we had to leave for school.

"Bitchhhh, how about I forgot about this whole damn breakfast" I texted my friend Keyshia.

See Keyshia is different from all my other friends because she's been around for years, I mean we use to run the block together couldn't nobody tell us shit!, but of course all good things come to an end and they evicted everyone in our hood, so Key and I had to go our separate ways. Yall know what they say though if it's meant to happen it'll happen so eventually Keyshia and I hooked up again and continued to do what we do best and that's run shit. Now I say shes, different because shes a smart ass hood girl and way older than all of us. What bitch from the hood you know graduate with a 4.0? My bitch was going to school to be a nurse she was gonna get us all out the hood, I had faith in her.

"SMH, how you forget?" she replied "Bro I don't even know, I'm drunk right now so when I sober up I'll remind my mom" I replied "Good because I'll be there bright and early ready for my plate" I giggled and locked my phone.

The next day had came the morning of my breakfast I woke up at 6 am I wanted to make sure all my food was done before my guest got here. I wasn't expecting any help from my mother, but as I walked downstairs I saw she had beat me to it. Pancakes, Waffles, Sausages, Bacon, Muffins, Orange Juice, & Coffee it was all there. "I guess she isn't so selfish after all huh" I thought to myself.

"Thanks" I said

*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK*

I looked through the peep hole seeing Keyshia, I opened the door "Hey Hoe" I said with a huge smile "We technically still cooking, but we're not gonna eat until everyone gets here anyways" I added on. "That's fine hoe, where's the TV remote" she replied

As my mom finished cooking for me I began to make the table and my guest started coming.

"Hey!" said Sarah and Tracy "Come in have a seat" I replied

Now Sarah and Tracy were like two peas in a pod, they had known each other for as long as I had known Key, I had met them in middle school and we've been cool every since, but it was always a fake thing because I knew they weren't friends that would stick around. They were both from the north side of town so they had money, and we'd always use Tracy cause she had a car and smoking outside can be a drag, but bitch started wanting gas money so those parked car sessions became a dub.

Theresa came and right behind her was Sam and Maxine, surprised that they had showed up together because they were beefing I just smiled and enjoyed my breakfast with my friends.
