A U G U S T
Today was Tuesday, which was my 18th birthday and I had my meeting with Dej Jams after school. I hadn't told nobody but Mel. Speaking of him, I missed him so much. I wasn't even feeling my birthday today but it is what is.
We were now in history in groups of five. In my group Payton sat beside me, Pierre sat infront of her, Travis sat on the other side of him, and Rodney sat on the end. We was playing Jeopardy and I felt this shit was about to be funny.
"Ok ladies and gents let's begin. The first people to go is Tyanna group" she pointed at tyanna group.
"Can I get Presidents for 100" she said and Miss.James went to the board pressing it.
"Who was the first president?" She asked and Rodney stupid ass stood up.
"Abraham Lincoln" He said like he was right. The class started laughing and Payton smacked her forehead.
"We definitely bout to lose" Payton said and I couldn't help but laugh.
"Mr. Baxter it's not you turn and that's not the answer" Miss.James said and he sat back down.
"Abraham is the first president, nigga the first person I ever heard about being president" he said and Payton busted out laughing at him.
"George Washington" tyanna answered for her group. They got they point and Rodney mouth dropped making me laugh harder.
"Oh my god" Payton said shaking her head. It was our turn and since Travis was captain he had to choose and answer for our group.
"Lemme get Slavery for a 100" he said and Payton sat up.
"Who created the Underground Railroad" She asked and Travis looked at us for a answer.
"Ruby Bridget's?" Pierre said and I started laughing.
"No dumbass Harriet Tubman" Payton said and Rodney looked confused.
"Who is that?" Travis asked and she smacked her teeth.
"Harriet Tubman" Travis answered the question. We got or hundred points. Once everybody went and got they point it was our turn again.
"Can we get Rights and Justice for a 500" Travis said and she clicked on it.
"Who refused to give her sit on the bus?" She asked and Rodney looked at Payton.
"Was it Oprah?" He said and Payton busted out laughing.
"No nigga, it was Beyoncé" Travis said and she almost fell out her seat laughing.
"Boy on god it was Oprah, she said don't beat me harpo and ran on the bus" Rodney said making Payton fall out her seat laughing.
"Are you ok Miss.East?" Miss.James walked over to her.
My jaw started to hurt because I was laughing and smiling at the same time. Smiling because Payton was dying of laughter on the floor. Her dimple was deep and she was holding her stomach that's how funny it was.
