My name is Melissa Shay Jones I am 18 years old and I attend Benjamin E. Mays High School with my best friend Zaraiah Lee.  We have been friends since the first day of 9th grade, she holds me down and I hold her down. We have two different life styles though. I live with my mom and my older brother.

My dad passed away when I was 14 he had a tumor on his heart, my dad wasn't always there for me because of somethings that happened between him and my mom; but when I needed someone to talk to he was there and very supportive of me.

My brother had a different dad than me, but his dad was always in and out  of jail. It was difficult for him to keep any relationship with his dad so he became close to my father. So when my dad passed away it hurt him just as much as it hurt me. 

     My brother was now 21 years old attending college somewhere in Atlanta. My mom is a  great mother very supportive & always keeping her head up although, it was hard because my dad had passed & at the time they were still in a relationship together. Overall things were getting better she worked two jobs, we stayed in a house with 4 bed rooms, three bathrooms, & other necessary rooms for a house.  

  When I lost my dad I became very distant, I lost many of  friends from middle school as well. When I enter high school I instantly became close to Zaraiah, she is so beautiful, out going, & fun to be around. Although she was my best friend,  I never told her I liked girls, well I was into girls and boys. But I never mentioned it to her because I figured she might get uncomfortable, I will soon though.

   I often wondered if she was interested in girls but I never asked though. Meanwhile I was at my locker grabbing my things to head to class, while Zaraiah was greeting everyone as usual. She was so kind hearted and funny sometimes I even  thought maybe I had a crush on her or something but nall thats just best friend.

  "Aye come on bitch you gone we gone be late" Zaraiah yelled

    

   "Hahahaha shut the hell up I'm coming, the bell haven't rang yet"

  

     "Alright" she said

   Every morning we walked each other to class after we left our lockers. She would tell me she love whenever we left each other sight, I don't know why but she just did, I never asked. When I reached class I was annoyed as usual because I hate my first hour teacher, he be giving out plenty work in the morning and I don't even be focus. I really just do not enjoy math at all, I only like count my money when it hit my hand.

When class started I put on my head phones I didn't want to hear shit he was saying. Just pass me the work, I was very good at math but I swear doing it was annoying and too much thinking. When the teacher got to my desk I felt myself getting pissed because I knew what he was gone say.    

    "Excuse Ms.Jones can take the head phones out and listen to instructions please".

   "Look I ain't in the mood you know I do thia  every morning, don't act brand new".

   

   "Excuse me, looks like I need to see you after class".

  "Man whatever" (plugs head phones back in)
