"Y/n get up!" Mani said. She picked my mattress up and flipped it to the side. Instead of getting up I just grabbed my pillow and blanket. Then curled up in the floor. "Oh my gosh! Ashelee she won't get up!" Mani whined. "Go finish getting ready. I got her." Ashelee told Mani. "Alright you little turd. You need to get up." I felt Ashelee pick me up bridal style and start tickling my side. I laughed and kicked my legs around. "Why won't you get up with Mani?" She asked me. "I'm still sleepy." I simply said.
"Well you have to get up young lady. It's your time to take a bath." She said and carried me to the bathroom. All the females were squeezed into the small bathroom that was big enough for us to fit. Except grandma. She's always up early. So she's dressed and has breakfast hot and ready. "Come on. Stop being lazy." She said as she put me on the ground. Ashelee caught me as I started falling over. "I told y'all to stop babying that girl." Aunt Andrea said. "I don't. I just care for her more than usual." Ashelee said.
"That's called spoiling." Her mom said as she curled her hair. "Mommy I'm not spoiling her." Ashelee whined as she helped me take off my clothes. "Are you sure about that?" I asked once I was fully undressed. Ashelee smacked her teeth and lightly shoved my head. "Shut up and get in the tub." She told me. I laughed and got in.

"Alright Y/n. Are you excited for school?" Arielle asked me as we walked through the neighborhood to get to the local store. "Yeah but it's so crowded in class." I said. She chuckled and nodded. "I know how you feel. You won't complain anymore when you start liking boys." She teased. I made a face and gagged. "Ohh do you like a boy Y/n?" Ashelee came up and asked. "No! I don't like anyone. "Y/n has a crush?" Normani asked.
"No I don't like any boys!" I whined. "Girls leave Y/n alone. If she doesn't like anyone like she says than she doesn't. Besides she should be worried about her education right now. Not about no boy." My aunt said. She took me by my arm and we walked ahead of my cousins. Soon I could see the store ahead of us. I held Mani's hand as we walk over. Across the street I saw these two white men beating up on a defenseless black guy. Yelling the n word and spitting at him.
I felt a hand on the back of my head force my head down. "What did I say to do when that happens?" Normani whispered to me. "To look away and mind my own business." I mumbled. "Exactly. We don't won't any trouble from them. You hear?" She said. I nodded as we walked in the store. This happens a lot. More than it should. But that's life for you.
A/n~ from what's happened so far in this story, what do you think will happen in the future of it?
