Song that helped me create this chapter in the media. :)

Tongan Dictionary:
Talahu'i: being disrespectful to the elder
'Ofa atu: I love you, or much love.


A couple weeks has passed after my devilish siblings ganged up on me, and told me to give Samuel a chance. It was very unconvincing at first, but instead of being stubborn, I decided to listen to the three. Samuel and I have hung out a few times ever since then, but it was okay with me. If we didn't see each other, were texting non-stop which I know will soon be a pain in the ass to our cell phone bill. On the bright side, Samuel and I have gotten very close and I was more than happy to know a lot of things about him. It was currently 1:30 in the afternoon, and I was waiting for the three stooges to come back from school as I was home by myself again. I really need a dog.

I was watching some random tv show that I was barely half interested in, until I heard a slight 'ping' from my phone. I was mentally crossing my fingers that it was Samuel, but slump in my seat to find out it was just a text message in our siblings group chat.

Hey guys, I'll be at the field across from school after classes. Ollie wanted me to come try out for the soccer team so I guess I'll give it a try, we'll see what happens eh? Oh and Fina, I'll need a lift afterwards pleaseee :D. Starts at 4 finishes at 6. Love y'all x

As I was about to type something in to reply to the group chat, another message came in from Saia.

From: Saia

You better shut your mouth, woman! Jayden finna get his lil behind kicked. Hellooo! Everyone plays soccer here and Jayden never laid fingers on a soccer ball. Extra work I'm telling you... Extra. Work.

I sighed, getting aggravated at the fifteen year old boy. He's such a pain in the ass.

And how many times did I tell you to stop calling your sister woman? Hoi. Dw Jay, I'll come and watch. :) Do you need me to bring anything for your try out? You got cleats & everything? Lmk, I'll be there at 3:45. Hea, save me a seat. I'll text y'all when I get there. Love you monkeys :*

As I was about to put my phone down, Saia's irrelevant self sends in another message.

From: Saia
Take your time old lady, hopefully you don't crack ya back on ya way here lmao

I press my lips in a tight line, not even bothering to reply to Saia's ignorant self and decided to hop in the shower. I took my sweet time and did my business just enjoying the refreshing feeling. After my shower, I hopped out, wrapping my towel around me. I put on a pair of dark jeans, and a white sweater, looking for a scarf. I checked the weather today, and it was going to be in the negatives out, and I did NOT want that cold work.

After finding my outfit, I put some curl definer in my hair and parted it to the side until I was content with how it looked. I applied only a very thin line of eyeliner, and a coat of mascara, of course not leaving my eyebrows out. I smiled, satisfied with my appearance. I check the time on my phone to see it was three. Perfect. On my way out, I grabbed a couple of blankets, and packed some snacks, putting them in my bag. I made sure I had everything in my bag, especially my lipgloss tube. My mama always told me that there are three things a girl should always take when she's out: lipgloss, money and some more lipgloss. I slid on my Uggs as I made my way out the front door, making sure to lock it and head to the car. After that, I backed out of the driveway in my mom's car, with the address of the school address inserted in my Google Maps.
