i head to the bleachers while yaz follows behind me
it's lunch so i'm supposed to be eating but the school that i'm enrolled in serves nasty food.
half of the time the food looks like a whole blob of shit
i sit down and pull out my planner. i start write down the things i'm planning to do today
7 am - 2 pm
go to school if i don't decide to skip this time
3 pm
go to in n out with yaz and javier
5 pm - 8 pm
write more poems please don't let yaz stop me
9 pm - 2 am
watch romance films alone since nobody wants to watch them with me
it's not like i care or anything
"okay i'm about done with filling this out, are we still up for in n out at 3?" she says yes in a duh tone, like she was saying of course we are
i mean we always go there so what did i really expect to hear?
fast foward
javier is the sweetest guy ever. i can bond with him about 80's films and he won't get annoyed like yaz does.
he drives us there, goes thru the drive thru, and orders all of us our food. not quite surprised that he remembered what we order all the time.
he parks in the parking lot and we take out our food to eat, i'm so hungry i haven't eaten all day i feel nauseous
"so mar how are your poems going so far?"
"going great haven't really tried my best these past couple of weeks." i replied
yaz adds, "poems? really? you're still writing those? you've been writing them since 6th grade mar, take a break."
"ur right i don't feel motivated."
"don't listen to her, why don't you send me one of your poems on text? i love reading them." he says. a second later he remembers that he got a new phone yesterday and didn't bother to tell yaz and i. well since we didn't really notice and didn't ask.
he asks for my phone and adds his number into my contacts and i do the same.
we finished and he drops us off separately. i'm the last to go so i get out of the car but he shouts something while i tiredly walk to my front door
"don't forget to text me" i take a deep breath and say in a quiet voice, okay jamba juice.
