AMARAH

"Amarah!"My mom shouted. "It's 5:45! You know the bus comes at 6!"

I pulled the blanket over my head. I was not feeling today or the rest of the week. It's only the third day of my junior year, and I'm already drowning in schoolwork...that I didn't do last night.

The blanket was pulled back from my body. My mother scolded me as she held the blanket. I gave her a smile, and proceeded to rolling my eyes.

"You've been pushing my buttons little girl. Get up and get dressed."

She threw the blanket back down on the floor. I lifted myself out of bed, and began my journey.

"You're father, the twins, and I are leaving. You better not miss that damn bus Amarah!"

I rolled my eyes again. She was always screaming at some damn body. As much as I loved her, I can't stand her. She made my life a living hell since she walked in.

I pulled out my school clothes. I had a silk tracksuit that was salmon colored. I put on a white bralette under it. Hopefully I wouldn't get dress coded, but I basically did every day. My teachers hated me, and I felt the same way towards them.

"Marah can I wear your jeans?"Nala shouted from my bathroom.

"Nala! Get out! Ya always in somebody shit!"I screamed.

"I'm gonna tell daddy you're being mean."

Nala was four years younger than me. She acted like a child, and I hated it. My parents made me act nice towards her. I hated it so much. She annoyed the living shit out of me.

"Lil girl I'll beat ya ass."

"Jordan died three months ago Amarah. You have no right to still be sappy. Get over yourself."

I marched into the bathroom. I dragged her out by her arms. She was not about to ruin my morning, let alone my day. She was so fucking annoying.

"Let go of me!"She shouted.

"Ya should be real damn happy ya ma sista. If ya wasn't I would've burned ya light ass with this house. Yea' Jordan died three months ago, but I didn't. I miss tha hell outta him. I'm not getting ova that in 10 fuckin minutes Nala,"I gritted. "Stay in ya fuckin lane bitch."

"I hate you too!"She screamed as she ran off.

I rolled my eyes and continued to get ready. I turned the water on to the shower. I needed to relax before I hurt somebody. I looked in the mirror at my belly.

"We'll be okay baby,"I whispered.

My phone lit up. I checked the screen and saw Janiya's text.
