"I just... um... noticed you were in history with me and was wondering what's your name." I respond, slightly confused by his cold tone. "I'm Hakeem." He says simply. So he's not even going to ask for my name? Who does he think he is? He should be honored to know my name. I think to myself jokingly. "Don't you want to know my name?" I ask, raising an eyebrow in confusion. "Nope." * Roxanne Williams has everything a 17 year old girl could want: Two loving parents. A ride or die best friend.
