Chapter One
Nayeli's POV
As I jolt up as I feel cold water on my body. I look up to see my demon of a sister Ember holding a bucket. I just roll my eyes at her and she finally leaves my room. I get out of bed to do my morning routine. Once done, I walk into my massive walk in closet to find something to wear. A few minutes later I grab a graphic t shirt, black skinny jeans, black and white Converse, and my purple pendant my mother gave me before she died. After getting dress I put my hearing aids on then grab my things and head downstairs.
Walking into the kitchen and I see Cassie my father's stuck up girlfriend on the computer ordering something that she doesn't need, Ember texting another guy, and my father on the phone. My father is the biggest drug dealer in California. Everyone wants to be him or take his throne. Anyway, I start to make breakfast for just my father and I. After thirty minutes of cooking, I fix our plates and I gave him his plate and I sat down then started eating. As I'm eating I see a hand in front of me and I look up to see Cassie and her demon child staring at me then at me my plate. Oh hell I know where this is going.
'What??' I signed to my father. Then I look over at demon seed and her offspring looking confused.
'They want to know why you didn't fix them anything?' He replies. I look at him like he's crazy.
'Why? They haven't done anything nice for me since you guys been together and they have two hands they can do it. They don't respect me so why should I?' I said honestly. Respect does both ways so if they don't respect me then why should I? He didn't say anything for minute.
'I understand that but can't you be nice?' He said and just look at him like he just lost his mind.
'Do I really have to answer that?' I ask him. He just shook his head and I went back to eating. I'm not about to kiss nobody's ass especially theirs. I'm not about to start not as long as I'm living.
One done eating I put my dishes in the in sink then grab my things and headed to the car. As I'm sitting in the car I pulled out my sketchbook and started drawing. I love to draw and I want to be a tattoo artist and want to own my shop one day. Ember and my father finally came out and we left. As we are heading to Riverdale High School, I see many crackheads, drug dealer, and prostitutes. I just shook my head at the sight but I love Compton. We finally got to the school and we got out and said goodbye. I walk into the old building and looked for the main office. After a few minutes of looking I finally found it and walk in. Walking up to the desk I tapped on the counter to get her attention. She looks at me then smile. I show her my phone and she nods then she went to typing on her computer. She finally handed my schedule and I thanked her and I left.
As I'm looking at my schedule I'm happy with what I have then I started to look for my locker. A few minutes later I found it and I started to get the things out that I need. Once getting everything I shut it then head to my first period class AP Art. Walking into class, I walk to the teacher's desk and handed her my schedule and told me to pick a seat. I went to sit in front row next to the door. A few minutes later, A young African American girl came in and she stood in front of me.
'My name is Justice and I'm your interpreter.' She said. I nodded in response. About ten minutes later the rest of the class came in. The teacher came up to the front of the room.
'My name is Mrs. Jones I am your AP Art teacher. Today I want everybody to pull out your sketchbook and show me what you've done over the summer.' Mrs Jones said. I did as told and waited. When she finally got to me I show her what I've done and her eyes went big as saucers. She told me great job and went to the other students. A few minutes later she said that we need ro draw something that's important to us. We did as told and started drawing.
Thirty minutes later, the bell rings and I pack up my stuff and head to my next class which is English. Walking into class I did the same thing I did first period. As I'm sitting in the same spot like before I start digging for my notebook and I felt a tap on my shoulder. I look up to see three girls in front of me.
I just them a blank face like I'm supposed to be intimidated. The middle on started to speak.
'You're in my seat' Justine translated. I looked all over this seat looking for a name.
'Is your name on it? is this your property?'I asked Justine told her. She didn't say anything and went to another desk. Yeah that's what I thought. As the class went by slowly, I pulled out a blank sheet of paper and start working on my art project. A few minutes later, I felt someone staring at me and I look up to see a pair of grey eyes and I gave him a blank stare. We stare at each other for a few minutes until he broke contact and went to sit down. Mrs. Justice looks at me with a confused look. I just shrugged my shoulders and brushed it off. A few minutes later, the bell rings and went through three periods before lunch finally came around.
Finally! It's lunchtime and I head to the cafeteria and got in line. Then I pulled out my phone seeing that my dad has texted me
Text Convo
Dad: Hey you want to the trap today?
Me: Yes! what time are we going?
Dad: As soon as you get home and change and I need you count the money and look at the book as well.
Me: OK. Wait what about Ember who's picking her up?
Dad: Cassiie is going to do it
me : Okay
Text Convo Over
I put my phone back in my pocket and moved up and started picking out my food. After picking out my food then I paid for it then I went outside to the courtyard. I sat under a tree and start eating my food. While I'm eating the three girls that's in my English class came up to me and I rolled my eyes. I wonder why these bitches keep bothering me? The girl in the middle is dark skin, maybe 5'6 or 5'7 with some cute braids, while wearing some black skinny jeans, a floral shirt with some brown Michael Kors flats and some gold earrings. Next is the Asian girl that's on the right of the dark skin girl has oval eyes 5'2 with a bob hairstyle, while wearing some blue fitted jeans with a 'Boss Up' crop top and some white Converse. Finally the American Indian girl who wears fitted blue jeans, with a long white sleeve shirt which is weird because we are in the middle of the summer but anyway and she's about 5'9 with long jet black hair and some Jordan's. The dark skin started started rambling at the mouth and I just look at her s if she was crazy. The Asian girl stopped her and told her that I am deaf and she'll translate for me and she just nodded.
The Asian girl turns to me and started signing
If you ever talk to me like that again I will make your life a living hell.' Then they left. I just shook my head. A few minutes later I feel a tap on my shoulder and I look up to see a white boy with dreads. He looks good for a white boy with dreads. Anyway I look at him with confusion. He sat down next to me and then smiles. I just gave him a blank stare. I just rolled my eyes and went back to what I was doing. I'm not about to entertain these bitches A few minutes later, I look up to see that they have left good. Seconds later I look up to see a olive skin guy with dark gray eyes sitting in front of me.
'My name is Carter. Are you new here?' He signed to me. I just nodded and we kept talking until class ended. As we are walking to my next class I feel someone staring at me and I met with a pair of dark gray eyes. He winked at me and I broke contact but I knew that he's still staring.
I tap on Carter and looks at me and I start to sign
'Who is that?' I pointed to the guy with staring at us.
'That's my brother Cairo Giovanni Di Caprio.' He signed. Where have I heard that last name from. My eyes grew wide when I realized that that's he's the biggest feared Mafia boss in the West Coast.
Whelp way to start off the year.
