The Struggle

Promises being made

~Jalen P.O.V ~

Well hello my name is Jalen. I'm 14 years old born November 10th. I have a twin sister named Jayla and a older brother named Josiah. Me and my sister Jayla were originally triplets but our other brother died. I am born and raised in Compton California but now I live in Georgia. I play baseball and I run track I'm very good at both of them for my age but I like track better.

Right now me, Jayla, and Jasmine are walking from the bus stop together.

I really like Jasmine and want to know more about her I want to know if the rumors about her are true and if so I want to know her side of the story.

We were all talking.

"So how was you guys first day." Jasmine asked

"It was good the teachers were nice but I didn't really meet that many people except you, Bridget, and Brian. "I said

"Ok that's cool what about you Jayla."

"My first day was good I met alot of new people mainly because of you the only person that I met outside of the people you introduced me to is this guy named Romeo he tried talking to me." Jayla said

"Ok well hopefully you two will meet more people tommorow and what was Romeo saying to you?" Jasmine asked

"He was just trying to talk to me I think he likes me." she said

"Ok do you like him?" she asked

"I don't really know him like that but he's cute why u ask?"

"Because that's my ex and I was just wondering." she said by this time we were infront of our house but I really wanted to talk to Jasmine it's like she talks more to my sister than me so I whispered something into my sisters ear.

"I really want to talk to Jasmine so can u go to the house and let us talk pleaseeee" I asked in a sweet tone she looked at both of us back and forth then she just smiled and walked away

"So can we talk I know we really haven't talked today?" I asked

"Yea sure but I really want to tell you what Romeo said was not true." she said

"it's ok I didn't think it was but how did u know what we were talking about?" I asked

"Well I was being kind of noisy." She said while sitting down on the little green box thing that be outside

" Ok well can I know your side of the story?" I asked sitting on it next to her

"I really don't feel comfortable talking about It with you we just met." she said

"Alright I understand but I do want to get to know you." I said She was about to reply but then a escalade and a Toyota camry pulled up with a women coming out of one and a man out of the other  I want to say it's her parents but they look real young.

~Lauren P.O.V~

Me and Dontavious pulled up to my house. When we got out of our cars I saw Jasmine outside talking to some guy. He looked around her age but I've never seen him around here before.

"Hey Lauren hey Dontavious " Jasmine said when we got out

"Hey Jasmine" I said

"Wassup" Dontavious said

"So who's this" I said talking about the boy who was next to her

"Well this is Jalen he's new to the school they moved next door he has a twin sister named Jayla." she said

"Alright well hello Jalen I'm Jasmines sister Lauren and this is my boyfriend Dontavious"

"Ok nice to meet you" he said putting his hand out for me and Dontavious to shake it and that's what we did
