7:00am

Nia woke up on time. She didn't even fight her alarm clock. She got of bed and went straight to the bathroom, memories of last night flooded back.

"Nah, sis we ain't going out like this". She spoke to herself.

"We too beautiful to be stuck on Trey's ass. It's a million and one niggas out here who would want us. But we don't need no nigga long ass we got ourselves, cause at the end of the day we all we need". She continued, washing her face and putting in some eye drops.

She decided to put on her best casual outfit. She did her makeup and added lip gloss. She did her hair and checked the time.

Nia grabbed her bag and took the books out and put them in her purse

Nia grabbed her bag and took the books out and put them in her purse.

"Ma!". Nia yelled walking downstairs.

"I'm in the kitchen". Her Mom called back.

"Can you drop me off to school please?". Nia asked.

"School? I thought chu would want to stay home". Her Mom stopped what she was doing to look at Nia.

"Nah. I'm not giving him the satisfaction of seeing me crumble. I'm gonna go to school today and cry him out of my system tomorrow and Sunday". Nia nodded.

"Ok...if that's what chu wanna do. I'll drop you off once I finish making my smoothie". Her Mom turned back to the blender.

Nia waited in the living room for her Mom to be done.

"Ok come on". Her Mom grabbed the keys.

Nia stood up and headed for the front door.

"Don't forget sweetie your Father and I are going to a conference this weekend so you'll be home alone. If you need me to stay I will". Her Mom reminded her.

"Nah, I'll be fine. I'll just ask Anaya and Jameer to stay with me". Nia dismissed.

"Ok, I love you". Her Mom said before driving off.

Nia turned around and came face to face with Anaya and Jameer.

"Bitch is you good? Boston just finished telling us about last night". Anaya pulled Nia into a hug.

"I'm chilling. I'm not about to let somebody kill my vibe. So I'm bout to chill and enjoy my school day". Nia smiled.

"Ok...but we definitely coming over after school cause I'on trust whatever this is and-bitch you look cute as fuck today". Anaya had finally assessed Nia's hair and outfit.

Nia giggled.

"Nah but bitch do you got on shorts under that?". Jameer pulled up Nia's over sized shirt seeing the short jean shorts.

"Bitch yeah! I ain't that bold". Nia slapped Jameer's hand away.

The boys had walked up and Trey was just looking at how beautiful and unbothered Nia looked. 

"Wassup wit chall?". Nia asked smiling, showing off her deep dimples.

"Nothing, you good?". Boston asked looking her dead in the face.

"Like I told them two already, I'm chilling. Matter of fact, I'm having a kickback at my house tonight at ten, y'all can come and bring some friends". Nia planned.

"You sure?". Kyle questioned.

"Yes damn! Stop treating me like I'm fragile or some shit. I told y'all I am chilling. Like shit I'm fine. I'm over everything and I just wanna move on". Nia was getting irritated wit all they questions.

"OK. I'll call my boy Roscoe and see if he can DJ". Kyle pulled out his phone.

"I'll get drinks and shit". Anaya spoke.

"Ok. Then its settled. Remember tonight at ten tell all yo peoples". Nia walked off as the bell rang.

12:07pm

It was lunch and everybody was at the table except Nia. 

"Yo anybody seen her?". Trey questioned.

"Why you looking for her? She obviously don't wanna be found". Boston spoke.

"Look man, I told you I was sorry for allat shit that happened between me, you, and Nia". Trey sighed.

"I know that and you fogiven and allat but I'on think Nia really wanna be sitting at the table right now wit all this going on. Think about it, this shit still fresh like y'all broke up forreal last night, this shit ain't gon blow over in a matter of twelve hours bro. You just gotta give her some time to sort her shit out the best way she know how". Boston spoke.

Trey took in what he said, he knew he did need to give Nia her space and wait until she was ready to talk.

"Hey y'all". Nia came rushing to the table with a couple papers in hand.

"What's that?". Jameer asked.

"College acceptance letters". Nia grinned.

"Yaas bitch go the fuck off". Anaya cheered.

"I know right, I sent some pictures to my parents and they're really excited. So am I, I just don't know where I wanna go". Nia looked through the five acceptance letters.

"Go off bitch damn, I see you wit the UCLA acceptance letter". Anaya looked through them.

"Bitch you got into NSU, that's all the way in Florida". Jameer looked to Nia.

"A change in scenery would be nice". Nia shrugged.

The lunch bell rang and everybody went to their classes.

Trey felt sick at the thought of Nia leaving California to go to a school all the way across the state.

One thing was very clear to him, he had to make her stay, under any circumstances.
