                               Harper's Pov
Well hey, I'm Harper. I live in BR, home of scary ass bitches and hoe ass niggas. I'm a Senior at Xavier High. Class of 19, of course I'm passing with a 5.1gpa🤪. Coming from where I come from it's hard to accomplish shit like this, that's why I'm glad I could accomplish such a thing. Being motivated by my best friend/sister and mother is the best thing ever. But let's jump into this shitty ass school.

"Ma," I screamed.

"What Harper," she responded.

"I'm finna go to school," saying as I grab my keys and walking out of the door.

"Okay, be safe" she assured.

"I will" closing out our mini convo.

Getting into the car, I FaceTime my sister Aisha.

"Why you up so early Har" Aisha said sleepily.

"Uh, we got school, getcho ass up, I should be over in 15, I gotta get some gas and coffee" I responded.

"Shit, okay okay, bye" she hung up

"This bitch" I groaned.

8:30 •at the gas station•

"Aye lil ma, where you going" a stranger said stopping me as I walked up to the store.

"What it look like" I spat back.

"Well damn fuck you too then hoe" he said loudly.

"Mhm, ain't shit ass niggas nowadays" I muttered.

I walked into the store, get a nose full of the freshly cooked breakfast.

"Yeah can I get 20 on 2 and a mocha frappe" speaking to the cashier, handing her the $25 dollars "keep the change"

"Okay" the cashier responds.

Walking back to my car, the same stranger was standing against my car. "Uh, excuse me, what you doing" I questioned him.

"Oh shit, nun shawty, just was wondering if you got a nigga or talk to somebody" he said answering my question.

"Oh ight n nope, I'm single, but I need to get to school" I said impatiently trying to end the convo whilst filling my car with gas.

"Lemme get ya number then" he pressed on.

"I guess" putting my number in his phone hastily.

"Calm down shawty, ian gone hurt ya" he insisted, winking at me.

"Yeah right" I said getting into my car.

"Well ight shawty, I'll hit you up later" he boasted walking to his Dodge Challenger

Starting my car, I think to myself, "Maybe he ain't bad after all"

Driving out of the parking lot I FaceTimed my sister.

Phone dinging "What Harper" Aisha said loudly walking away from my view.

"Goddamn but you ready or not, I'm bout 5-10 minutes away" I asked

"Yeah, lemme find my purse" she answered

"Check ya top drawer" I said

"Bitch, thank you, I sholl forgot where I put it" she said excitedly

"But ding me when you ready" I said

"Okay" she said before hanging up.

"Bitch, love hanging up on people" I rolled my eyes going through the intersection.

8:45•Aisha's house•
"Come on man" I said as I honked the horn, "Ian gettin out, its too damn cold"

"Hey bookie," Aisha said, hopping into the passenger seat of my Audi I8.

"Hey bae," I responded.

We talked about gossip and mess otw to school.

9:10•Xavier High•

"Damn, we ain't never been this early," I said getting my purse and hopping out of the vehicle.

"Shidd you sholl right" Aisha added.

We walked into the school, greeting everyone as we walk pass to first period.
