This story is about Alya who's life has never been peaches and cream but one day she hoped that she would be fully happy but with people who pose to be somethi...
"Alya let's go to the zoo" Jas said as we watch Netflix. "Today?" I asked "yea we not doing anything else" she responded. "I guess" I said
"Ok we leaving at 4:30" she said getting up and going to her room. I go in the kitchen to grab a water and sit back on the couch to finish the rest of the movie.
"Lya why you still sitting there" Jas said walking to me "I'm finishing the movie it's only like 10 minutes." I responded. "Here you go. You been doing good for the past two weeks you been on time to dates and everything else you wanna mess it up by watching tv" Jas said shaking her head
"You so extra" I said cutting the movie off and going to my room. I had been on time lately especially seeing Chris. We see each other almost every day. Mostly we will go get lunch after my class or even picking me up after work going to see a movie or to a arcade. It's a little too early to say I'm in love but I know I really like him.
I got in the shower rubbing my body with my warm vanilla dove soap. You can say I might have a small addiction to the warm vanilla smell. Anything warm vanilla I want it from soap to perfume to candles to air freshener. I think it's the subtle ness of it like it's not too strong but you can smell it.
After getting out the shower I put on lotion then my clothes looking at the time to see it's 4:15. I put on my shoes walking to the living room to see Trey and Tyler. "Wassup my peeps" I said plopping on the couch next to Tyler.

"Wassup" they said at the same time. "Y'all ready" Jas said as she walk from her room "leggo" Trey said walking out the door as he follow him "Tyler how you feel you get to see your family today" Jas said as we step on the elevator. "That's racist" Tyler said seriously making us all burst out laughing.
"I'm tired of you" I said still laughing at him. The elevator open and Tyler walks out leaving everybody. We walk to the car to see Tyler laying on the roof. "Boy get in the car" I said pushing him and going to get in the car.
"Alya you are abusive" Tyler said getting in the car after about 30 minutes we were parking to get in the zoo. "I haven't been to the zoo in a long time" Trey said getting out the car and holding Jas hand. "Me either" Tyler said walking to the front desk. After we got own tickets we start walking around the zoo.
6:14pm After walking around the zoo and making fun of each other my feet hurt and I'm hungry. So was everybody else's so we decided to leave. They did have a cafe but I was a little scared they might have slipped some zoo animals in the food.
"Where y'all wanna eat" Trey asked starting the car. "I can cook" I said I'm honestly tired of eating out. "Can you make shrimp Alfredo?" Tyler asked "yea everybody ok with that?" I asked "yep" Trey and Jas said excitedly.
After the ride home everyone is watching a movie in the living while I cook. I pulled the shrimp out removing the shell and tail and deveining them. After that I washed them and seasoned them. I put paper wrap on the bowl and put it in the fridge.
After cleaning my mess and washing my hands I start on making the sauce my grandma kinda taught me how to made before she died. After mixing the ingredients I put the sauce on the stove. After cleaning up my mess again I go and join them watching the movie.
"The food ready?" Trey asked looking at me "no not yet" I said getting comfortable because it take the sauce 30-45 minutes to get done "so why you sitting down" Tyler asked "Because the sauce gotta cook." I responded rolling my eyes.
After 30 minutes I went to check on the sauce and start cooking the shrimp. After the shrimps was half way done I started making the noodles. When the shrimp and noodles were done I added them together and then put the sauce in there mixing it. Then I put it in a pan sprinkled cheese on it and put it and garlic bread in the oven the garlic bread for ten minutes and the Alfredo for 20
I take the Alfredo out and call them to eat. I make my plate and sit at the table blessing the food and then eating. "SHIT" Tyler yelled making me drop my fork I look up at him to see him looking at me "what" I asked "This is goooddd" he said pointing to his plate "hell yea" Trey added on. "Don't yell like that you scared me." I said getting up to rinse my fork off.
10:00pm After eating and watching some movies I'm tired and I have school in the morning. "Alright y'all it's been real but imma call it a night" I said getting up as they say goodnight. I walked in my room took a shower and laid in bed. As soon as I got comfortable my phone ring I was ready to complain until I seen the caller ID making me smiling instant
