( Nicole )

It was now the next day and my alarm was waking me up. Finally! One more day until Friday.

I rolled over and checked my phone I had a text message from my friend Ling Mae. She's half Chinese and half black.

Ling.Mae: Hey babes! I miss you like crazy. Life hasn't been the same without you. You kept life funny , now it's dull. Hope you have a great day at school! Call me later! Love you! 😩😽💕

I replied back to her.

Nickayyy_: Hey baby! I miss you so much too. I miss how you'd get mad cause we'd call you Chinese Eyes. Thank you and I'll call you. I love you too ! 😘💞💓

I locked my phone back and got out of bed. I went to the bathroom and did my business. I washed my hands then cut on the shower. I washed my body and shaved.

I stepped out feeling clean with a Purple towel wrapped around me. I went out onto my balcony and looked across the street. It was a few cars there. Maybe 4. I walked back in after waving at somebody who waved at me first. I went into my closet. It was kind of hot today , so I pulled out Jean Shorts , White Short Sleeve and Black Vans. I put on my lotion and body spray. I slipped into my clothes and walked into the bathroom. I decided on flat ironing my hair. I flat ironed it I put on carmex and leaving off mascara. I smiled and walked out. I grabbed a polo hat and slipped it on. I grabbed my phone from the charger and my book bag and keys and walked out my room. Riri was coming out hers too.

Me: Morning.

Riri: Actually I have a question.

Me: Shoot.

We went into the elevator.

Riri: Okay so my car was fucking up yesterday and mom is gonna take it to the shop so , can I ride with you?

Me: Yeah of course.

We walked out the doors and dropped out stuff in the living room couch.

Riri: Cool thanks.

Me: No problem.

We went into the kitchen and saw two plates covered up and a note in the middle of em. We uncovered it and Riri grabbed the note and read it aloud.

Riri: Hey girls. Your mom and I went into work early. Riri , your car is in the shop and won't be out until some time next month. Your rental will be here when your home from school. Dinner will have to be ordered , we won't be home until late. Love you girls and be good. Kisses. Love your moms.

Me: Well okay then.

Riri: Right.

Me: Well , let's go I guess.

Riri: Okay.

I grabbed my things and we walked out locking up the doors. We got in my car and I drove out the gates. I waved at Lexi across the street. She waved a come here signal so I pulled into the driveway and she ran to the car.

Me: Hey Lexi.

Lexi: Hey Nicole. I actually have a question for you.

Me: You need a ride?

Lexi: Nah. But my little cousin does.

Me: Where to?

Lexi: School.

Me: Elementary? Middle? High?

Lexi: High.

Me: Oh okay.

Lexi: I actually would like to talk to you.

Me: Okay. Speak.

Lexi: Out in private?

Me: Yeah okay. I'll be back Ri.

Riri: Okay.

I unbuckled my seatbelt and got out. I followed her up to the fountain in the middle of the circle like ours. I sat beside her.

Lexi: So I know we don't really know each other , but I need a huge favor.

Me: How huge cause I'm already carrying your cousin to school. I mean it's not a problem but ya know.

Lexi: Yeah I know haha.

Me: So wassup Lexi.

Lexi: So my cousin is pregnant.

Me: Oh. Wow. How many months?

Lexi: Actually , I don't know. I was going to pick her up early later for a doctor appointment.

Me: Oh.

Lexi: Yeah. I was kinda wondering if you could guide her to her classes.

Me: Did you forget I'm new in school?

Lexi: Kinda. How long did it take you to find your classes?

Me: Not long. On the schedule it has the subject written beside it. Over the hallways it has the subject written over them too.

Lexi: I kind of feel better if your with her. I hope it isn't to much trouble.

I looked at her and smiled showing my Black and Purple braces.

Me: Nah. It's good. What's her name , grade and age?

Lexi: Selena , 16 and Sophmore.

Me: Okay.

Lexi smiled at me and just looked at me for a while.

Lexi: Um you should probably go to school.

Me: Uh yeah. Yeah I should.

I got up and she walked me back to my car.

Me: So where is your cousin.

Lexi: She's coming now.

I looked at Lexi's car and saw a light skinned girl. She was wearing Grey Joggers , Black Tank Top and Retro 11's. She walked up to us.

Selena: Hi. I'm Selena.

Me: Nicole , that in the car is Zariyah.

Riri: I'm not a that!

I laughed.

Me: She's just to scared to admit it.

Selena laughed.

Me: Well are you ready?

Selena: Yep.

Me: Coo.

Lexi: Can I get your number?

She was looking down. I laughed and grabbed a sharpie from my book bag and wrote my number on her hand and put Nicky.

Me: Text me later. I may respond.

Lexi: You better.

Me: If I don't?

Lexi: It'll be punishment.

Me: Hm. Haha okay. See ya later.

Lexi: See ya. Be good Lena.

Selena: Okay.

I waved at Lexi and played Fetty Wap - 679 Ft. Remy Boys. I pulled out and drove to school.

I got in my Black and Red BMW i8 and sat in it putting Nicole's number in my phone as Nicky 😈🙌🏾.

I started the engine and cut on my music. Well the radio. They had Dej Loaf - Me U & Hennessy playing. I backed out and drove to the highway. By the time I got there they had Chris Brown - Look At Me Now playing. My phone had rang. I had it connected to my car so the contacts come up on the radio screen. It said Brittany. Since I was in a good mood ( thanks to Nicole ) I decided to answer to call. I hit the green button on the screen not taking my eyes away from the road.

Me: Wassup Brittany.

Brittany: Hey Daddy. I was kinda of wondering something.

Me: Oh yeah? What was it?

Brittany: I was wondering if we can go shopping today.

Me: Yeah. I'll pick you up round 11.

Brittany: Okay Daddy.

Me: Bet.

I hung up and found my self pulling into Erik's driveway. I grabbed my phone and got out. I locked my doors and walked up to the steps. I unlocked the door and walked in closing and locking the door behind me.

Erik's house wasn't big , but it wasn't small either. He had a 5 Bedroom , 4  bathroom , full out attic , full out basement , gym and pool out back. He loved his house and it was very cozy , so I stay here a lot. My house was a 10 bed room , 9 1/2 bathroom , gym , indoor theater , indoor pool , office , kitchen , living room , music room and a pool out back. All that room for just one person but I wanted to be living big. So I use hoes for my company.

Me: Yo! I'm here!

Erik: In the kitchen.

Me: Okay.

I walked in and saw him cooking. I wrapped my arms round him and stole a piece of bacon. He laughed.

Erik: Man get yo gay ass off me.

Me: Oh you don't want me on you?

Erik: Nah.

I laughed and walked away and sitting on the counter.

Me: Fine. Ion love you no way.

Erik: Liar.

Me: Chill.

I laughed dragging out the chill. He laughed and threw another piece of bacon at me and I caught it in my mouth.

Erik: So wassup.

Me: Wanted to come home.

I call his place home and mine a house for now.

Erik: Okay. Breakfast almost done. Nyah!

Me: Bruh , who you yelling for?

Erik: Nigga go somewhere. My cousin up there cause she ain't wanna go to school and missed the bus on purpose. She gotta car but I took it away cause she was acting like a little hoe. So I tore that ass up and left her there crying.

Me: You coulda drove her.

Erik: Nah nigga! Her school in another city!

Me: So?

Erik: To far plus she needa learn her lesson.

A girl around 17 came down stairs. I recognized her as the girl in Starbucks with Nicole.

Nyah: Yes?

Erik: Sit at the tae and eat.

She grabbed a plate and went to the table. I grabbed a plate and went to the couch. Erik followed me with waters. We just chilled until it was time for me to go.
