Junior POV

I unbuckled my seatbelt on the passenger's seat. I was about to open the door when I felt my mom grabbing my wrist.

"No goodbye?" She said. I looked outside the window and watched as my sister got out of the car and marched towards her friends. This private school of ours has middle school and high school combined so I have to see my sister both at school and at home.

"Goodbye," I said dryly.

My mom sighed and I turned to see her rubbing her temples. "What's with the attitude so early in the morning boo?" She said.

Really? Does she have amnesia? Doesn't she remember that she whopped my entire body this morning?

"Look ma. I don't have an attitude OK?" I said lowly.

"Really Junior? Are you still mad about this morning?" She said. "You didn't wanna wake up and when I tried to wake you up you almost kicked my stomach really hard. You're lucky I backed away when you were doing your flying kick."

Damn. I did all that? It must have been a reflex then because I don't remember trying to kick her.

My bad.

"I'm sorry ma. I honestly didn't mean to attempt to kick you," I said looking at her and she smiled. "Do you forgive me?" I said smiling weakly.

She sucked her teeth. "You know I can't be made at my baby for long. I forgive you sweetheart," she said and she kissed my cheek. "Now get out of here before you become late," she said and I got out of the car.

I entered the school building and went straight for my locker to get my books.

"Junior!" I heard someone call my name. I turned to see Cole jogging towards me.

Cole and I have been friends since last year when he moved to New York with his folks

Cole and I have been friends since last year when he moved to New York with his folks. We formally met in the cafeteria when he was sitting and eating alone. I decided that I should go and keep him company and become well acquainted with each other. On top of that we are in the same class but he's a year older than me.

"Hey man," I said dapping him. "I haven't seen you in a minute," I said.

He sucked his teeth. "Always being melodramatic. We were just talking just yesterday on the phone," he said shaking his head. He looked me up and down then he patted me on the back and I flinched. "What's up with you?" He said chuckling.

"My mom whopped the shit out of me this morning," I said taking out a book from my locker and putting it in my bag. "She said I almost kicked her stomach with a flying kick," I said and Cole busted out laughing such that all eyes were on us in the school hallway.

"Man, I don't blame your mother for beating you because of that flying kick," he said catching his breath and I just gave in a death glare. "Aye man. Don't look at me like that. Every time you sleep over at my house, I know that when I try to wake you up, I must be far away from your legs as possible because your stupid reflex of this flying kick might hurt me."

I guess it is a reflex because I never remember trying to kick anyone in my sleep. I should really warn everybody about my sweet ninja moves before anyone gets hurts.

Cole then smiled sinisterly. "Silent but deadly," he said lowly. I looked at him confused and then it clicked what he was talking about.

"Dude sick," I said playfully punching him. "Warn somebody before you fart," I said. It then started smelling like rotten eggs plus rotten cabbage at the same time. "Dude. What crawled up your ass and died?" I said fanning away the smell with one if my textbook.

Cole came closer and placed his arms over my shoulders. "Relax. Its a normal bodily function," he said as we walked and made our way to Biology class.

Brooklyn POV

I can't wait for school to be finally over. Right now I'm stuck in my last class of the day and its Math class. I mean, who puts such a boring subject at the end of the day? I wanna know who's in charge of making this stupid schedule. On the bright side, its a Friday so I have the weekend to look forward to.

I was snapped out of my thoughts by someone throwing a crumbled ball of paper. I turned my head and saw my best friend, Candace waving at me. She made hand gestures for me to unfold the paper. I did likewise and read what she wrote

"What the fuck is that white nigga, Mr Howard talking about?"

I slightly chuckled and and wrote back

"I don't give a damn about what that Einstein-looking-freak is talking about. I just wanna get out of here"

I then crumbled up the paper and threw it back to Candace. She read it and started giggling.

"Mr Howard. Brooklyn and Candace are busy passing notes to each other," I heard and I saw it was this bitch, Susan who fucking snitched.

I so much wish to stick my foot up her ass right now.

Mr Howard turned and walked towards me. "Give me the paper," he said with his hand out and I simply shrugged. He then walked further and went towards Candace and asked the same question.

"You mean this paper?" She said confidently, holding out the paper and Mr Howard nodded. Shawn then tore the paper into a million pieces and threw the pieces up in the air. "Here you go," she said smiling.

"That's my girl," I said loud enough for the class to hear.

Mr Howard then stormed back to his desk and took out some book and frantically started writing. He tore two pieces of paper and walked towards me. "I'll see you after school for detention," he said handing me the detention slip and he did likewise to Candace.

The bell then rang which marked the end of school. Candace and I walked out of the class and went to our lockers.

"Man. This white nigga be tripping. I ain't going to no detention," I said taking my books out and leaving the ones where I have my homework.

"You and me both sista. I ain't going either. Does that nigga know that we got lives?" Candace said strapping his backpack.

We in the hallway busy making small talk.

"White nigga at five o'clock," Candace said and she pulled me in the girls bathroom. We stayed there for a while until it was clear. We then rushed out and ran outside.

"That was close. Mr Howard almost caught us," I said laughing.

"Brooklyn. Mom said she ain't picking us up so she sent a driver," I heard my brother say as he walked passed us. "Hey Candace," he said with a smile.

"Your brother is hella cute," Candace said blushing.

"Eewww. Don't say that. You are making my skin crawl," I said with an appalled expression.

I said my goodbyes to Candace and I followed Junior to the car where we found the twins sleeping. We made a quick stop and picked up pizza for dinner.
