Being Autumn

One

I step out of the Uber and stare at the large house in front of me. Great, now I have to start all over. I'm just glad they enrolled me to the local school already, otherwise I would have to deal with it, and that shits annoying.

“Aye, big head. Getcho ass inside so we can choose rooms already”, my brother, Felix, yells, already running towards the house.
I grab my duffle bag and walk inside. The living room was white and black, there was two couches and a tv on the wall with a PS4 connected.

“I call the largest room. Period”, I say and walk around, knowing the master bedroom would be upstairs. I open it and it's pretty big, just like the rest of the rooms. The covers were white and purple, just like the pillows.

There was a bathroom attached along with a medium sized walk in closet. I drop my duffle bag onto the white furry carpet, which covered the entire floor and placed my slides on a shelf in the closet. Most of my clothes wont be here until tomorrow, so until then, I might as well go around and explore the city, so I put on my new Jordan 12's, the pink and white ones.

Oh, my bad. My name is Autumn Leanne Young, I'm 18, and I just moved down to Orlando, Florida. I am from New Your City, but I now live down here because of... Well, I don't really like thinking about it.

“Aye, Felix, I'm going out to look around. Aunty supposed to be here soon, so don't do nun until she get here. Here's some money for a pizza or sum, but don't leave”, I tell my sixteen year old brother.

“Bro, I'm sixteen, I do what I want. But, I got you, cause I wanna see aunty anyway”, he shrugged, taking the money. I grab my keys, which had a furry black puffball attached to it. I clip it to the belt loop of my jeans and walk out. I had on a white hoodie which was cut half way up my stomach, and a pair of dark blue jeans with my Js.

I decide to go left and I walk around the corner. I see a park and a basketball court, both had a crowd of people, so I don't go there. I had my airpods in, listening to the Moana soundtrack. Nothing compares to Disney, period.

“Yo, no funnt shit, it's hot as a bitch out here”, I mumble to myself, moving my curly hair out of my face. My hair was in an afro, the curls going everywhere. My hair was dark brown, but it could be mistaken for black.

I realized that I actually need to get my braces tightened, and I don't know no orthodontist down here. “Fuck”, I groan. I see a corner store and go inside. I grab a bag of Skittles, a bag of hot fries, and a can of Arizona sweet tea. It came up to $5.87 cents, so I gave the man six dollars and walked out.

“I'm gonna have to get a job down here, otherwise I'mma be bored and broke. We don't need no broke bitch”, I say. I walk around a little more before feeling my phone vibrate in my pocket.

'Incoming FaceTime from BestieButtz💟☯', my screen said, and I answer.

“Hey, best friend!”, I shout through the phone, and she flinches, pulling her headphones out. “Damn bitch, shoulda gave my ass a warning. Anyway, lemme tell you. Word to mommy, I'm finna fight Micheal, with his pea head ass. Pinhead Larry head ass. I chew on chalk face ass. Fucking flip phone lookin ass. Brick built ass”, she roasts my boyfriend, and I start cracking the fuck up.

“Bro, what he do?”, I ask, wiping the tears from my eyes. “Bitch, tell me why the moment you left, he gon go over Mya house. And she told me they was fuckin! That some grimey shit right there, no lie”, she shook her head.

I made a fake sad face, jutting my bottom lip out. “Aww. Okay, so now that we figured out that I realy don't give a fuck, how's it up there?”, I ask, heading back to the house.

“It's hot as fuck, deadass. And I can't find my Nike slides anywhere, and it got me tight”, she whines, and then I hear her scream, making me turn my volume down. “Lemme guess, you dropped your phone?”, I ask her, and she nods once she picks her phone up. “I'm glad it ain't crack yet”, she laughs.

“It's fucking hot down here. I'm going back in the house”, I say, turning the corner to where my block is. “Speaking of which, when am I coming down to visit? I'mma miss you”, she said, placing her phone on her window sill and sitting on her bed with her legs crossed.

“Prolly when one of us buy the plane ticket. But, there go my aunty, so I'mma call you tonight. Don't fall asleep, hoe”, I tell her, and she rolled her eyes. “Fuck you, but love you”, she waves and hangs up.

I see my aunt Tia and I run over to her, hugging her. “Hi aunnie”, I say, and she hugs me back. “Hi baby, how you feel?”, she asks me, and I shrug. “It's too hot, no lie. But, I'm cool. How are you, you ok? ”. She nods and I help her bring her bags into the house.

... And fuckin Felix is passed out on the couch. I slap my forehead as I end up showing her where her room is. I go up to my room and pull my laptop out of my duffle bag, and I see my suitcase by my door.

I open it and see two pairs of shoes, another pair of slides, jeans, shirts, and my underclothes. My duffle bag had my body washes and stuff in it. I also see my Bluetooth speaker, so I connect my phone and Moment 4 Life by Nicki Minaj comes on.

I strip and go into the bathroom, which had a grey carpet and shower curtains, and marble sink countertops. I figured out how to turn the water on and got in.

After my shower and me washing my hair, I sit on the sink and began combing my hair out before it got dry and nappy. Next, I put in curling cream and brushed it up into a messy bun. I put my face mask on and went into my room, putting on a pair of black panties and a pink bra, then I put on a tank top that ended above my belly button and a pair of spandex shorts.

I go down stairs and see that my Arizona was sitting on the counter, so I open it and drink it. And, this nigga actually ordered a pizza and a large orange soda. “Nice, Felix can do something right”, I mutter, opening to see the pepperoni pizza.

After a half an hour of me doing absolutely nothing, I went back upstairs and went to bed.

This is who I want as Autumn.
