Unidentified Colors.

Sadness & Anger.

For the remainder of the day, August totally ignored me and I returned the favor by keeping my distance. We just passed each other in the halls without even sharing a glance. As if we were strangers. At lunch, I had to sit with a different group of friends.

He even ignored me during physics when we had to do this partner experiment. He just took over and did all the work. The nigga paid me no mind.

I was sitting in 6th period. Awaiting the bell to ring so I could exit this agony.

5 minutes...

4 minutes...

3 minutes...

2....1

*DIINNGG*

Everyone quickly grabbed there stuff and exited the room.

I greeted a couple friends and a few other people as I was walking through the hall. It was a Friday so the school emptied pretty quick.

As I was walking through the hall, I stopped at a sight that I thought was a dream.

There was August and his ex , well so I thought, Nadia practically eating each others faces off. She was feeling all over him.

I felt a lump in my throat, and tears threatening to fall. I quickly ran off to the bathroom, but quietly so they wouldn't know I had seen them.

I entered the bathroom, and thankfully there was no one in there. I looked up at myself in the mirror. I looked a mess. Mascara running. Eyes puffy red.

It shocked me how much I had cried over just this. I've seen so many beatings, rapes, and killings in my life. Sure I was scared and cried the first few times but I have no reaction to it anymore. So I don't know why just this fased me so bad.

The more I thought about it. The more I realized how much more strongly I feel about August, than I be telling myself. But then I grew angry. How the fuck does he think its okay to just jump on to some other girl after just trying to get at me. Especially Nadia's ass out of all people. Know what fuck him. Fuck her. Fuck everything.

I tried my best to forget abouy it. I just put my hair up in a pony tail, tried my best to fix my make up, and just decided to change into my track gear.

I finally finished after about 10 minutes. I looked at myself and figured I looked not my best, but decent. So I started to head out the bathroom.

*BUZZ BUZZ*

I felt my phone vibrate like a billion and one times. I clicks the lock button and saw that I had like 6 messages and one call. All from Dae. But I was already almost late for practice. I can't be late again. He can wait.

I speed walked to the locker room and saw my best friend Bree sitting on the bench tying up her shoes.

Bree and I have been best friends since 6th grade. She moved here in 6th grade from Alabama since her father got a new job like every month. But it finally stopped in 6th.

She knows anything and everything that there is to know about me. The good and the ugly. Same vice versa.

Bree is a pure black breed. She's real short about 5'2, with a jet black weave that goes down her back. Dimples too. She had a great personality, and is every niggas dime and piece.

"Hey boo", she said in her still thick Alabama accent since she still get back from time to time.

"Hey girl", I said back to her.

She looked up at me and smiled. But it quickly faded away.

"Why you look like you been crying?", she asked full of concern.

"I-its nothing ...", I lied but she could see right through me.

"I've known you damn near 6 years to know that there's something wrong", she said motioning for me to sit down on the bench. "Waddup whicha?"

I sat down and started from the beginning, to this morning, to August and Nadia.

"Then I just ran to the bathroom. I couldn't handle it. I shoulda just kissed him like I wanted to", I said on the verge of tears.

"Damn boo. It seems to me you feelin August way more than you claim", she said rubbing my shoulder.

"Ugh, I know. That's what I realized too", I sighed.

"Girl I been knowing. Everyone been knowing. Then y'all play and act like y'all don't know. You two been rockin with each other for a minute", she said.

I looked down.

"If it weren't for..", she paused. Looking around to make sure no one was listening. But there were some girls about to leave so she said, "If it weren't for.... you know. I foreal think y'all woulda been together boo", she said.

"Damn, I know. It sucks but its what's best", I said wiping away the last of my tears.

"I really hate seeing you like this cuz you always been so hard and strong ever since I met you. I know that whatever happens between y'all will be for the best. I promise you that", Bree said giving me a smile.

"Awww thanks B", I said getting up as she did, and hugged her.

"Anything for you. Now let's hurry and get out there fore "Ms. Thang" throws a fit", she said chuckling.

I chucked with her and we both existed the locker room doors to the track. I feel a little better after talking to Bree about this. But still.

When we exited we saw all the girls on the team on the floor stretching, practicing hurdles, talking and everything.

"Where the hell have you two been", Kelsey, captain, said with an attitude.

"I was just helping her through some shit. Find yo chill. I think yo uniform on too tight", Bree scoffed at her.

I heard some chuckles from some of the other girls.

"It's always on too tight", an Indian girl snickered.

More laughs came from the rest of the girls.

I started to laugh but acted like I was coughing.

Bree and I walked away from that bitch, leaving her dumbfounded.

Practice went on as usual. I said bye too Bree and everyone else. I grabbed my blue Nike bag/gateorade bottle and headed out in the hallway. I went through the schools doors, to the parking lot, then finally to my black Range Rover Dae got me for my 15th birthday.

I hopped in my car and started the engine.

But what I seen and happened after that was something I would've never guessed would occur...
