Like the king of pop himself said, it doesn't matter if you're black or white. Be at Berryington High it did, well not in the way you thinking. We don't have segregation or anything or us black folks go unnoticed. The racism is more underground, so the teacher won't notice, even though everyone knew the teachers favored the white kids over the black. Not all of us get beat up or pick on. I mean if you're part of the favored crowd than you were in luck. Unlike me, Octavia Osborn, the most noticed unnoticed African American at my school, I was constantly picked on because of the color of my skin or how I acted, but mostly because of my skin.

I sit down on my bike looking around the school parking lot. Listening to music, I stand up begin to walk through the student-less parking lot. Honestly, it's not like I meant to be late. My music cut out causing me to hear a whistle. I stop in my tracks and pull my headphones down to my neck. Turning around, I seen a group of men with one guy who just smirked at me. "You new here beautiful?" one of the guys asked. "What do you think Einstein?" cocking my brow. "Ohh. Challenging? I like." he says walking towards me, about two inches away. "Really?" biting my lip, as he continued walking towards me. He reaches out and grabs my hip, "Mmhmm," smiling down at me.

I look at all the men in the group who had their jaws dropped, all except for one, "Touch me one more time, and I'll brake your arm in two." I stand and kick his back so he falls on the concert.

Choices We Make
As the bell rang, signaling school ended for the day. I watched everybody rush out of the class to meet with their friends in the halls. As for me, I tried to stall still inside the classroom, not wanting to face the bullying and teasing that came with not dressing nice in school. Standing from my assigned seat, gathering my things together before putting them inside my bookbag, I took my sweet time. Seeing the class mostly empty now, I tossed the straps around my shoulders and headed out of Mrs. Coan's classroom. Walking into the main hall, I brace myself to face the popular kids gathered by the lockers, showing off their new outfits, jewels, haircuts, and pocket money. Although we were in elementary school, it wasn't hard to notice which kids came from money and which students struggled at home. As for Myself, I was one of the bummy kids. Knowing somebody would pick on me for something they had & I didn't, I strolled towards my locker to get my coat. I was the student who never had money to buy snacks at lunchtime or books from the book cart that came to our homeroom on Mondays. I was always sharp when it came to schoolwork, and learning came naturally to me. It was effortless to get straight A's on my report card. Yet I couldn't add up how to change my living environment and earn money to buy nice things like the others in my class. Where most kids couldn't wait to get home to play their video games or sports, I was going home to an environment full of crime and drugs.Complete
Scholar
[COMPLETED] [Warning: Strong language used throughout the book.] He put his hand over my notebook and the other over mine. I glared up at him, his golden brown eyes catching my attention. "I can't write like this," I pointed out. "Is this all you care about?" Ryan asked. I shrugged. "Not this specifically, but yeah, I care about my grades." Ryan smirked. I swallowed nervously but refused to break my stoic expression. He leaned closer to me, my heart pounding so hard against my chest it felt like it might break out and fall on the table between us. His mouth was right by my ear, and I could feel his warm breath when he spoke which sent shivers down my spine. "Well, aren't you a little a scholar?" *** The only things Alex Moris ever cared about were his grades and his sister.

"Hey! She already said she was sorry. What more do you want?!" I screamed loudly in his face. His face turned from angry to shocked. No one had ever yelled at him that way at school before.

You probably have a million other shirts just like it. You spoiled rich boys have no respect for others. You think you're better than everyone else.
