I wish I could rewind back to a few months ago where I was senior in High School not to now where i was standing in front my dorm building.I wanted to pack my bags right back into the car and tell my parents to stop playing with me and take me home.But I watched them drive and started up the stairs to my room. I lived in a traditional hall on the 2nd floor.

The name of my building was Kannnon sound lit right? I hope so because this moving into a new place with strangers going to blow my shit if it's not. My roommate was supposed to be my bestfriend but the hoe didn't get her Financial aid stuff done in time. So now I'm stuck with a random jawn that I didn't even get to reach out to during the summer. I headed into the room 301 it had on it in bold numbers. The door was wide open just like every other day.

I peeped in and there shorty was with her big blonde curly hair, 5'2, skin of a chocolate bar, and hypnotizing cat like hazel eyes. "Hey you must be Jay" she said in a hood accent, I could clearly tell that she was either from jersey or new york. "Yeah wassup, you are?" I said because shorty name could come to mind. "I'm Jaz" she said almost with a attitude and from then on out I knew me and this bitch was going to have problems. Like why are you tight because I don't know your name... um hello I don't even know you.

But i tried to keep my cool or whatever because I didn't want to have to fight her and get kicked out of school. So I was unpacking my stuff as random people started stopping by in my room introducing themselves to us. So first of y'all I thought she knew these bitches like the fuck y'all doing in our room if you don't know neither one of us. I look at her waiting to say something like 'oh girl that's my friend Rebecca' or some shit like that but she looked back at me and said "you know this bitch?" and I started dying laughing like "Hell nahh I thought you did" and right then we were cool.

I could tell our attitude would sometimes be a problem but besides that we're going to be good.

    So me and Jaz sitting there in the little area where the games at for the building. And I don't know about her but I was looking for the cuties. "GIRL did you see the tall dark skin guy that was just peeping you?" Jaz asked nodding toward the pool table but me being half blind and all I couldn't see him.

I was starting to get embarrassed when Jaz said it a little louder and started pointing in his direction like " HIM Right there " and I wanted to crawl into a hole because he was now making eye contact with me. "Okay chill Jazzy I see him" I said whispering and he went back to what he was doing like just continued his game of pool. We sat there for 30 more minutes watching people socialize with new friends while we stay to ourselves. Then we gave each other a ready to go back upstairs look and got up in unison.

Before we got halfway down the hallway we heard voices behind us.I wanted to turn around so bad but my shy habits wouldn't let me. But clearly see that wasn't the case with Jaz she turn right around like why y'all following us, me still facing the other way was listening closely. "My mans wanted to talk to ya friend" one of the mystery people said from behind me.

"Ya mans could speak to her himself I believe we're all grown here " she said snapping and I just wanted to snatch her away and run. And before I could even get to my next thought a tall shadow stood over me."Hey, my name is Khalil. How you doing" he said with his smooth deep voice. But I was still looking at the ground not ready to make eye contact with him.

"I'm good & my name is Jayla but you could call me jay" I said giving the floor my name. And girl let me tell you when I felt him putting his hand under my chin tilting my head up looking toward him. And y'all when I tell you I had to look all the way up because this nigga was so tall.

Or maybe I'm just extremely short I'm only 5'0 guys so he at least had to be like 6'2 hurting my neck looking up at him. But when I say he was fine I mean like fine fine guys I wanted to start crying because I never even have a conversation with somebody this fine before.
He started to chuckled and then grabbed my hand leading me back to the game room and I looked back at Jaz who was now flirting with the guy she was snapping on early. He pulled the chair out for me type gentlemen shit man my whole heart stopped. I know y'all don't know me like that but I'm a sucker for this cute shit because niggas be so rude now days.

I sat down and he went right across from me and started right into it. "Soo where you from babygirl" he said in the deep tone and I didn't respond for a couple seconds just stared at him. He probably think I'm weird or something because I couldn't get the words out of my mouth fast enough. But I replied back to him in like a minute saying "Newark" and he just was like ohh you from jersey that's wassup and started laughing. I guess I made a face when he did that because his follow up question was "why you making that face" and I started getting mad comfortable before I even knew it.

"Fuck you talking about why I made that face you laughing like there's a problem about me being from newark" I said lowkey snapping. He shook his head like "Nah it's not even like that I'm just saying I heard about girls from Newark" and I don't know why this bother me so much but this nigga was getting under my skin like the fuck he trying to say."And so wassup " I said now showing the hood part of me and completely getting rid of the shy part.

He just sat there still chuckling like this shit was really funny son I swear to god. "Nahh you seem different shorty forreal" he said after he finished giggling and by that I was turn off and wanted to go to my room. Where the hell was Jaz when you needed her man. So I did something I would've never did if I wasn't drunk on angry right now. Got up and walked away like fuck you nigga I don't have to take this disrespect because girls from newark are the shit and get that shit through your head.
    As the elevator closed Jaz slide right in like a snake and asked me what happened. I was guessing from her tone that I blow her shit with the guy she was talking to but I just told her he disrespected me and where I'm from.

And she asked where are you from shorty and when I told her she made a stink like face that she tried to hide. If I wasn't the christian I was today I swear I would've slapped her right in her fucking face like what the hell is wrong with these people at this college and what is they problem with my city. "Is there a problem shorty" I said leaning in towards her inching close to her and she said nah you good you got it.

I entered our room, then went straight to sleep because I knew I was going to be taken out of character if one more person tried me today. I wake up in a strange place and I badly wanted to cry I already was becoming homesick. I missed my best friend and the gang.
