"Belcalis!"
"Bel!"
"Baby despierta" i heard as a cold hand shook me awake
("Baby wake up")

"Ma you hella cold deja me dormir" I told her pulling the covers over me
("Mom you hella cold let me sleep")

"Esta Tommy en la puerta" she said which made me immediately get up
("Tommy's at the door")

"This nigga really showed up at my door at 8am, this man brazy" I whispered as my mom left my room

I got up and just slid on some slides, ain't no I don't duck with no kore need my effort to get ready. I brushed my teeth and stepped out my room and saw him there at the door.

"Can I help you?" I asked him

"Yeah, you can start by explaining to me why you leaving me" he said

"Nigga ain't no one owe you no damn explanation, when Cardi say it's over, then it's done" I told him

"Is it because you getting that new job in Cali?" He said

"Who told you that shit" I asked him

"Everyone in the hood know, you moving out the Bronx to become some little ass fashion designer" he laughed

"Yeah I'm wasting my time with you, fuck out my house nigga" I said pushing him out the doorway and closing the door

"You still got my name tatted on ya!" He screamed as he walked away

"So i can remember that you ain't shit trick!" I yelled back slamming the second door closed.

My mom peeped her head through the hallway and as soon as I saw her she quickly hid behind the wall.

"Ma i saw you, you ain't slick" I told her cracking a smile

"I John Cena you can't see" she said doing that wave John Cena does

"Where you be learning this shit from, swear you got some new weird phrases to be saying" I laughed as I walked back into my room

"If he come back don't answer" I told my mom and she nodded.

I hopped back onto the computer hoping to see an email back, the due date for the registration was today 12am sharp, I was lucky enough to make it on time even though it was last minute. I didn't expect them to answer immediately, but all I could think about was that, and i didn't know how else to take my mind off of things, and since it was still early for me, I decided to go back to sleep..

3 hours later

"SISSY!"
"GIRL WAKE YA ASS UP" I heard my sister yelling to wake me up

"The fuck you want?" I said angry cause I had been awoken

"You got an email back!" She said with such excitement in her tone

"Don't tell me you opened it" i told her

"But I did, and I think you'd be happy to see" she said smiling handling me the laptop

"NO WAY!"
"NO FUCKING WAY" i tossed the laptop on my bed and me and my sister jumped around crazy in victory.

I had gotten the job, I would start next week which would be exciting. My flight would be Friday November 22, the departure was at 6:30pm and the landing was at 11:30pm. I was more than extremely excited, I couldn't believe out of all the people who must've signed up I got chosen, and on such short notice.

"Por que gritas?" My mom said
("What you yelling for?")

"I got it mom!!!" I told her

"Si?!"
("Yes?!")
She said with a large smile on her face which made me smile i know she cares about this as much as I did.

She congratulated me and we began talking about going to Cali. The email said they'd provide me with an apartment and transportation, only to work tho, if I wanted to go out I'd need my own car. They said they would send another email to give me all the info I needed and the smile on my face would not disappear.

"Sis we need to go shopping for some fire ass outfits so you can show up looking like a snack!" Hennessy said

"Damn you right, we got time today?" I asked her

"You already know any time you need me I'm here so of course" she said smiling

"Where we going to?" I asked her

"The mall maybe?" She told me

"Sounds like a plan, let me call star and tell her about this tho" I told her

"Ight ima be getting ready meanwhile" she said exiting my room

I called star and even though she was upset I was leaving she was still supportive and happy for me, she congratulated me and said I would do an amazing job. I couldn't ask for a better bestfriend. I told her I'd fly her out once I got the chance and she seemed happy I gave her that option. We talked about some drug shit that was going down and how I had to sell double this week since I'd be leaving soon, our conversation eventually ended and Hennessy and I were on our way to the mall, with her driving of course, cause I ain't got no damn license. We shopped for hours trying to find the perfect outfits to make the best first impressions. And once we found the perfect ones we ate then headed back home and I tried them all on and they were stunning.

"How you feeling?" Hennessy asked me

"I'm good, really excited and nervous even tho it's a bit of time from now" I told her

"You gonna do great, I know you will" she said giving me a hug

"Thanks sissy, you should try out for it too" I told her

"You have some bomb ass fashion" I told her again

"They already done tho right?" She asked

"Nah they doing it again soon" I told her

"Maybe, I'll think about it, imagine us being big" she said

"Only in our dreams" I told her.
