I let ma sleep as Kai, and I get ready for our first day back to school. It’s a dreary day, although it’s the first day of summer. I hope it’s not a reflection of things to come for this term, but I guess we’ll see. I arrive back home…

The creepy guy continues to harass me. If I try to leave the club, he’ll probably follow me out, and I’d be outside alone with him. If I stay here, who knows what he’ll try to pull. The next thing I know, I hear Mr. Washington’s voice. Waddell: Hey love,…
I call up a ride share once I’m dressed and ready to go, but I regret coming as soon as I enter the club. Why did I let mama talk me into this? I feel silly as soon as I see everyone talking amongst themselves and having fun. Who comes…
It’s “Sun”-day, the first day of summer. Kai gets up early, brushes his teeth, and makes himself some cereal. His mom is not up yet, so he occupies himself by dribbling his soccer ball in the kitchen, although he’s pretty sure she wouldn’t allow him to play with his ball…

A young man is standing in front of our house when Kai and I arrive home for the day. I don’t recognize him until I step closer. It’s my baby brother…who’s no longer a baby. Prosperity: Meri! I almost didn’t recognize you. Merit: Hi, Peri. I greet him with the…
I put on my pajamas and stare longingly at my bed. With a presentation, homework for two classes, and two final exams to study for, I know I don’t have time to sleep. When push comes to shove, sometimes you have to take drastic measures, so I do. I decide…
Feeling hungry and tired, I drag myself inside and prepare a quick meal of fish tacos. I’m halfway through my first term, and I’m not sure how I will make it through three more. But right now, it’s time to turn my attention to my son, who I feel I’ve…
