that's what i thought

chapter one

madison +

let me introduce myself

my name is madison and i'm in senior year aka last year of school

i guess you can say i'm popular in school, i hang out with athletes and cheerleaders since i am a cheerleader

i have two siblings, i'm the youngest, i have one really overprotective one, he's my brother, mark

mark thomas

i have no idea what job he has but all i know is every night him and my dad go somewhere and come back at like 5 am

mark is 23 years old

i don't ask them where they go because it's not my business

i have an older sister, michelle, that is married she is 26 with two kids, i'm an aunty at the age of 18

my sister comes home only during occasions since she also has her own family to look after

my mum is like my bestfriend well i mean was my bestfriend, she died from a car accident just a few months back

i was really upset about it and for a whole week i wouldn't leave my room

but at the end of the day, how ever much i cry it's not like she is going to come back

and that's the day i actually left my room and started doing things my mum wanted me to do

she wanted me to be happy and do what i love and always be nice to everyone

and that's what i'm doing, you may be like how come a popular girl is nice

well i've always been nice but who likes nice girls, but i like being nice and it's better for me

now that's enough about me

my alarm rings, another day of school, i get up from bed and head to my bathroom and take a long cold shower and brushed my teeth

i wear a white strapless tight crop top and light blue ripped jeans with some air forces, i curled my hair

i head down stairs to see my brother and my father with some others they looked unfamiliar i didn't know who they were

i gave my brother a questioning look and he walked up to me and whispered, "they are just my friends and also wear a jacket over what your wearing"

i nodded and went upstairs to get my denim ripped jacket, i took a snack bar and grabbed my backpack

"have a good day at school honey"

i heard my dad say, "thanks dad" i kissed him on the cheek and my brothers

i  saw two of the boys stare at my ass for the corner of my eye but my brother gave them a dead stare and they looked away

i shut the door and headed for school

mark +

"what did you tell her" asked my dad, " i told her that these were my friends"

his face calmed down and we carried on talking about settling our gang in a safer place

yes i'm in a gang and so is my dad

michelle knows about it but madison doesn't it's just that if i tell her it will make her really stressed and after mum died she would feel even more terrible
