1 Chapter Uno

"Phora mom said to get yo ass up" Dusty, my brother said opening the blinds in my room, "Damn I'm up and close the blinds." I said shielding my eyes from the blinding lights coming through the my windows "Nah" he said walking out my room closing the door well at least this time he did . I got out of bed closed the blinds then went to take a bath. After my bath I brushed my teeth and did my hair and lotioned my brown skin body then got dressed for my last first day of school.

After I got dressed I went downstairs and saw my btother and sister stuffing their faces and my mom washing dishes "Morning" I said sitting next to my lil sister Xamora taking some pancake stuffing my face as well. "Phora, I'm scared what if no one likes me " she asked looking liked she was about to cry. I mean I would be scared out of my mind too if I was going to school with the Caucasians then got to transfer to a school in the hood which is my school but she gon be ight I am and I don't even talk . "If them kids don't see how awesome you are then they ain't worth your attention." I said side hugging her while still stuffing my face.

"And let them touch you Imma beat they asses" dusty said getting on his phone.

"Your ras do duh and the police calling my phone like 'mam your son has been arrested 'yuh skunt agga stay right in deh" my mom said the living room.

My mom is Caribbean she is originally from a country called Guyana and she came here for school and got married to a hood nigga, my dad and we came along . She speaks creole at home and she taught us saying 'you need to learn your roots'.

My dad's in jail but my parents are still happily married and we go see him every other week end. Dusty took over my dad's trap when he was 18 and now he is 22 and the trap is the largest producing trap in the south side of the hood. Mom didn't like the idea cause that's how dad got in the dog house but she's ok with it now I guess." Ight ya'll ready " Dusty said getting up putting on his Forces "yup both Mora and I said at the same time while she was putting on Space Jams and I put on my Vans and left each telling mom bye and love you.

@School

"Hey Bitch" Kass said to me as I walked up to them.

"Wassam" I replied

"Where B at?" I asked.

"Her slow a…" Trev started but trailed off looking at something behind me so I turned around to see Brook coming out a black Charger the windows were tinted so there's no way we can see who was in there "Wassam" she said walking up to us

"Who was that? Trev said eying her just as we were.

"That Pooter he came back from ATL about a week ago" Pooter is B's cousin moved to Atl when he was 10 we were 8 which would mean he's at least 20 now so yeah and from that car he got he got to be selling fasho so I might see him at the trap this after school.

"Oh who coming to the trap this after school?" I asked cause we could carpool. "Me" everyone except Nova said . ��� Why you not coming"

"Girl got to get me some Vitamin D" She said flipping her hair over her shoulder.

" From who?" Trev fast ass said.

" Mind the business that pays you boo" she said walking to the building with Mora.

"I gotta go, fuck with you later" I said dapping everybody then going into the building.

@ Class

I walk in and there were only three students there I just took a seat in the back and put in my airpods and listed to Icy Girl by Saweetie. People started coming in and talking andall that but ion talk so. "Um excuse me but why don't you talk?" some girl asked and started laughing with her friends.

I ain't about to tell her that cause it's personal, I used to be more outgoing outside of home and the trap but shit happened and the only people who know are my mom, Dusty ,King, B, Rick and I'd like to keep it that way.

" Ion see why I should." I replied shocking them. "The actually thing talks" she said laughing again. I just didn't answer her, she a Latina they think they superior cause they the closest thing in here to white people, well other than the few snow bunnies around the place.

20 min. Since the bell rang and the teacher not here yet , but I'm not complaining. "WHERE THE FUCK IS THE TEACHER IF I WANTED TO DO NOTHING I WOULD HAVE STAYED HOME." A kid shouted but like why sleep and shut your skank ass up.

"SHE FUCKING YOUR DAD, SHUT THE HELL UP." Some other student shouted back. Whew child the ghetto the whole class bussed out laughing. It was funny but that was just mean as hell damn.

The class ended and the teacher still ain't come the class but what ever and now I'm in gym with Kenni and B. "Girl pooter would love you." B said to me while we were stretching.

"That nigga not gon even care that I exist." I said

"Yeah he like them quiet homebodies."

"But he gon see me at the trap I'm not quiet there"

"Yes you are you just socialize a little bit more" Kenni said joining the conversation

"Yeah whatever ion even want him tho he got hoes." I said seeing that I was losing this arguement
