My name is Emerald, I'm 17 years old and for the past 10 years I have been living with my dad in Honolulu, Hawaii. He and my mother divorced when I was 7 and my father got custody of me while my mother received custody of my twin brother, Evan.
(Picture of Emerald, Evan, Frank, Maya, Kyle, and Marley)
My dad ,Frank and my mom, Maya,
never had a bad relationship, like most separated people I know, they just feel out of love with each other. It was kinda funny because the divorce was so easy going.
I loved living with my dad. He's so like me and every little way. My dad was my rock.. Sadly, my father had an heart attack passed away about 3 monthsago. So, I came to live with my mother, her new husband, brother, and my new baby sister in Boston, Massachuttes.Even though I'm still very sad about my father, if i could have picked any place to live, I'm glad it's here in Boston.
"Good morning mama, Good Morning MarMar" I said walked down the stairs. Even though my daddy passed away 3 months ago, I've stayed in Hawaii, gathering my stuff and saying my goodbyes.
So, I've been here for about a couple of weeks and my first day of school is tomorrow, which is Monday, September 4, 2015. Kinda weird going to school in September because in Hawaii we go back in August.
My mother was in the kitchen cooking breakfast, by time I had woken up Kyle was gone. I'm not like most kids who resent their step-parents,
I really like Kyle and so did Evan. He was a great guy (not a great as my father) but my momma's happy so I'm happy.
Kyle was Caucasian, about 40 years old, 6 ft even, dark brown hair and green eyes. My mother was accompanied by Marley. She was about 6 years old and man, she had the prettiest light brown hair. It was full of beautiful curls and her eyes were gray and she had just recently lost her first tooth.
"GOOD MORNING EMMY!" Marley yelled as she gave me a hug while still trying to eat her cereal. Lol, this girl.
"Well, good morning sweetheart." My momma said as she kissed my forehead and handed me some breakfast. "How are you doing, baby?" she said. "I'm doing okay. It's just hard but It's not going to be easy." I said sadly.
Before I knew it she was hugging me and I felt my eyes starting to water. "I know baby. I miss him too. Even though he's not here, he's never gone. I love you baby now, get dressed we have to go pick Evan up from the airport" my mother said.
I haven't seen Evan since the funeral, because he's at a basketball camp for the summer in LA and he took off a week to come to our dad's funeral. Even though he had to leave to next day, It was still nice to see him again.
I ran upstairs and put on my multi-colored bohemian pants (that I got from WetSeal+), mock crop tank , gold gladiator sandals, and my black satchel to finish off. Even though I'm plus sized, I LOVE fashion. I'm confident but at the same time I'm insecure. Like I wear crop top because I love them and I love how pair them with outfits, but I only wear them fit bottoms that are high-waisted and elastic. I also love leggings, but I'm insecure about my butt, because it nonexistence. If I had a dollar for every-time I tried the daggone squat challenge, I'd be rolling in cash.
There is one thing that I will not wear because I'm afraid and that's bathing-suits. I don't care if It's one piece, two piece, or 7 pieces. I'm not wearing one. That's one of the main reasons I don't go to the pool. Okay Okay, I can't swim and be dammed if somebody push me in. I'm the type of plus size were my weight is mainly in my legs.
I barely have breasts. I mean they say I'm a 38D but I have the problem
where one of my breast is soooooooo much bigger than the other and then
I have a big gap in between them, which makes me self-conscious. I want to lose some weight. I want to pull a Jill Scott, or a TamelaMann. They're big and beautiful.
I finished thinking to myself about everything I hate about myself, I went threw the things I love as I started on my smokey eyes. I love my teeth. Yes, I have a gap and no i will not close it. My gap is apart of me and I will never change that.
Another thing is my hair. I transitioned natural about 3 years ago and I absolutely loved it. I have about 3b/3c hair. The big chop wasn't no big deal to me, mainly because before I went natural I had a pixie cut, which I loved. I love to experiment with my hair. I've dyed it. Cut it. Had weaves. Braids.
Undercut. You name I've probably had it
When I finished my makeup and put my hair up into a curly bun. I looked at myself and smiled. No matter what I disliked about myself, the good outweighed my sadness. I ran downstairs and went outside where I sat in the car and waited for my mother to come so we could go pick up Evan.
When we got to the airport me, my mom, and my little sister, Marley had a sign up for Evan like the chauffeurs have. When he landed and waked out as his face lit up when he saw us.
Before he made his way over to us, he dapped up this realllllly cute boy. Once he finally came our way Marley just couldn't hold it anymore. She ran up to him and jumped into his arms. He caught her and spun her around.
"Hey Mar, I've missed you too!" He then went around, hugging as all and we gathered his stuff and made our way back home. It was about 6 o'clock when we got back to the house. We had went out to eat and did a little last minute school shopping. Which was much needed. Shopping is like my superpower.
When I graduate, I most defiantly want to peruse a career in fashion.
I picked up some shirts and bottoms, mainly skirts, joggers, leggings, and stockings. Who knows what Evan picked up.
Swear that boy spends more time in the bathroom than I do, and I'm a curly girl. It takes FOREVER to do my hair (when I wash it). Once we got home, I did my nightly routine. Since tomorrow was the first day I was going to wash my hair, and style into bantu knots.
I picked out my outfit. And I went to bed at about 10:30, I was to eager to
sleep. So many thought ran threw my head, eventually I let them go and ws
fast asleep.
