1992
Tionne.
I opened my eyes and see the sun shining bright through my small window. It was always so sunny here in Atlanta. I got out of my bed and walked into my bathroom. After I finished brushing my teeth and taking a shower, I stopped and looked at myself in the mirror. My mom calls me beautiful all the time....I just don't see it. I'm so freaking light. My hair is so short. Not to mention my voice is so deep I sound like a man. I felt my eyes get watery but I blinked them away. I can't do this right now. I left the bathroom and got dressed for school. I put on a white, baggy sweatshirt and white, baggy sweatpants. I looked under my bed and pulled out my white adidas. I slid them on my feet and put on some hoop earrings. I love to wear baggy shit but I'm still feminine with it. I walked out of my room and closed my door. I opened my little brother, Kayo's room and saw him still asleep. I smiled and closed the door. I began walking into the kitchen but stopped when I heard shouting and glass breaking. I knew it was my mom and dad fighting again. I couldn't go that way cause I knew my dad would start to hit me. Everytime my dad is angry, he hits the first person he sees. Mostly me. My dad always tells me I'm ugly and I should just lay on the ground and die. I went in my room and opened the window. I climbed out and landed on my feet. I have to go through this process almost every goddamn day and I hate it. I brushed myself off and began walking to school.
At School
I walked down the hallway to my first period class. I got the same comments from the same people everyday. Mainly, everybody at this school doesn't like me. Except for a few people. I always got called two things: ugly and stud. I mean, I never told anyone this..but I do like boys and girls. If I told anybody that, the things that happen to me at school would be waay worse. I walked inside my class and sat all the way in the back of the classroom. The bell doesn't ring for another 25 minutes so I just sit here and think to myself. I was so deep in my thoughts, I ended up falling asleep.
A/N: Comment and let me know if you want me to continue this book. :)
