As soon as I stepped inside I swear I could smell the ganja from the future. Of coarse olive was already there and waiting, like always, she's there first. Tom just showed up, like olives yellow sweater, Tom always wears plaid.
Kush is usually late, girlfriend keeps him sometimes but hey go on proving it right?God as soon as I hit it I felt the wave of relaxation hit, Tom was saying something about the universe but I can never tell.
I heard somebody call my name, think it's kush, soon as I snap out I see him. He looks happy, pretty sure it's just cuz he gets to join in.
Was there always music? I don't remember but it's nice, meditate by Vanessa? Olive has weird music taste. It's late, I know we were talking about something, I can't remember what but I'm headed home, the parents are gonna freak anyways but whatever, I got better shit to do than deal with them. I remember hitting the bed and then I was out, no clue how I'm gonna handle tomorrow. Nice end to another normal day.
"Come downstairs" it's my dad, he probably found my stash or something. I got up, threw on a shirt, underwear? I've got pants on, I'm good this time, not like last time, grounded for a week after that.
He's at the table, pink slippers, newspaper, blue shirt and slacks, work day. My mom was there with my sister neti, everything seems fine I guess. "You know son, I'm proud of you." Oh god what now? "You're not doing the best but after seeing what goes on, I'm glad, you turned out ok".
Ok lost, wtf? I thought I might as well check, I read the paper from behind him, damn cholos shot the soccer players at school. Guess that's the new low, fine with me, means I'm off the hook for at least a week. Last time it was a robbery and damn I got away with a lot, never underestimate a Mexican parent though, I lost everything for a week once. My dad legit took away everything, from my phone to my open window privilege.
I went upstairs changed, phones ringing, olive, "hey beaner you coming to the park today with us?" I laugh "fuck you china, ahorita llego." hung up, grabbed my backpack and headed to the bus. Every day that I stare outside this window I see everything, the empty fields, the river, the graveyard that my uncle chucho works at, I can even see olives family store, god I hate this town.
Walked in to school, whole crews here, feels like breakfast is the best time to live in Highschool, nothing is better than those first few minutes.
Another haze, I vaguely remember the park at all, I remember going to the store though, I remember olive not wanting to go in, then we were back at charr house. I walked home today, swear everythings weird but I guess it doesn't really matter, it's all just the weed I think. Right turn at the old mans place, there it is, that stupid blue house, two stories, big ass roof.
I feel like the high stupor for the past few days is coming down, gonna have to go back to normal ass society for a few days, I even feel it slowly coming down. The strange gravity of it all has me tired. All I know is I dozed off....
