I woke up and went to the bathroom to take a quick shower, got out, lotioned and wore my school uniform I am a head girl so I have to wear my blazer at all times. When I was done I made my way downstairs to the kitchen, I found my two annoying brothers already up and eating, well it was the two of them I guess mom and dad were already at work Me: (smiles) morning I say kissing both their cheeks, that's how we always greet each other Thapelo: someone's in a good mood Thato: morning pumpkin how are you? takes a seat Me: I'm good, did you guys make some for me?They were eating cereal Thapelo: I believe everyone has hands and legs pumpkin I roll my eyes Thapelo: u roll(ela) ban amelo wena?

(what do you want) Him: that's not a good way of greeting your mate Me: aaa uqalile ufunani? (you've started) Him: okay you got me, could you please come to my house this afternoon Me: to do what? Him: to help me with physical sciences, you know you the smartest and hotest girl in school Me: no! Him: please Me: no! Him: please We went on and on until I agreed to the nonsense he was asking me to do. We arrived at school, I went straight to my morning class immediately, I was 15 minutes late because of Lethu aaarg great!! In about 45 minutes we were done. I packed my books and went to meet my two best friends Kagiso (head boy) and Esihle (deputy head girl) at our morning spot. Kagiso is gay Esihle is straight. After a good 15 minutes of standing in the cold they finally showed up Kagiso: b***h Me: sfebe That's our way of greeting Me: where were you guys at?, I do not remember seeing you this morning we had a morning class Esihle: we were at a meeting Me: what meeting? Kagiso: didn't you see on the group, all head and deputies had to attend a meeting this morning Shit! Thapelo took my phone yesterday and deleted all my apps and files it was a prank Me: no I didn't see it, why didn't you guys come fetch me? Esihle: we did but you weren't in class Me: it's okay so what was the meeting about? They told me everything, after that we went to our separate classes because we don't attend the same class. My day went well it was now break, I went to meet my friends at our usual spot they were already there, seated Kagiso: so tell us friend why were you late? Me: Thapelo refused to drive me to school today he said he was 'busy' I said rolling my eyes Esihle: how is he vele? Me: who? Thapelo? Eshile: (smiles) yes dummy Me: Esihle are you eyeing my brother? Esihle: do you blame me? Kagiso: nope mina I don't blame you friend, her brothers are damn hot yerr Esihle: banobu yummy marn She said biting her lower lip Me: enough about my brothers, what are we eating? Esihle: first, could you please give me Tj's numbers Me: mxm I said getting up leaving them and making my way to the shops, I bought myself a Kota and a fruit juice then went back to my friends Kagiso: why didn't you tell us you going to the shops Me: I asked what are we eating and no body answered me, so suit yourselves Esihle: you such a b***h, Kagiso phakama sihambe siyothenga (stand up let's go buy ourselves lunch) Me: so you both are leaving me here? 'alone'? Kagiso: suit yourself doll He said making way to Esihle who was already on her way to the shops Me: traitor I said shouting, I sat there eating 'alone' nxah!! friends we keep Voice: beautiful I lift my head up, it was Liam and his annoying friends standing in front of me Me: (rolls eyes) Liam Liam is colored and is the most popular kid in school his also deputy head boy Him: I was hoping to see you at our meeting this morning where were you? Me: I do not have to explain myself to you Him: whoa what's up with you, I'm just trying to be nice Me: well I do not need your filthy sympathy Well thing is I did not like Liam, but I kind of had a little silly crush on him Him: yho okay, look I want to invite you to my birthday celebration this coming weekend Me: forget it, I'm not coming Him: please (he smiled) God he had a cute smile Me: fine Him: I'll fetch you bye He didn't wait for my response he walked away before I could say anything. The syrine went indicating that break is over, and these fools I call my friends hadn't come back yet. I took my bag and made my way to class. The day went smoothly till it was after school, I told Thapelo to not fetch me I'm going to the library which was all a lie because I was going to Lethu's house to help him with 'physics'. I was now outside the gate waiting for Lethu since I did not have any afternoon classes today Voice: Let's go I turned to look, it was Lethu standing behind me Me: sure We walked for about 20 minutes till we reached his house. We went in to his study and I helped him with everything he needed 'help' with, after an hour we were done Me: yeah it's time for me to go now see you tomorrow at school Him: yeah sure, ohh and thank you Me: it's only a pleasure I said exiting the room I arrived home at half five, and found my two brothers watching a movie in the lounge, something slipped my mind, I tip toed and took the remote from the side of the sofa, they didn't hear me become they were concentrated on the TV. I took the remote and switched the TV off before running to my room and locking the door behind me. I had them knocking and shouting my name from the other side Thapelo: pumpkin marn open this door Me: (laughing) never Thato: if you do not open this door in the next 5 minutes, I'm going to break it Me: zama nje (try) Thapelo: pumpkin please, I beg Me: (laughing) ayy wena stop begging me coz I'm never opening this door not anytime soon Thato: Kamva marn!! I knew he was pissed as f**k, so I took my ear pods and listened to music before taking my books and studying. When I was done I unlocked my door and made my way to the kitchen. I found everyone eating including mom and dad they were back from work Me: mama, papa I kissed their cheeks Mom: mama wama simba uyimosheleni TV yam I hear Thapelo chuckle Me: no I didn't Mom: then why is it not playing? Me: mama I took the remote to my room by accident Mom: ohh bendi cinga imoshekile ke mna (I thought it was broken) I went to take a seat in between my brother's, we ate over light conversations, when we were done I cleared the table and went to my room, Thato and Thapelo were the ones who are going to wash the dishes Thapelo: pumpkin He said getting in followed by Thato Me: keng? Thato: make space for us He said getting inside the covers, I did as told Me: when are you guys washing the dishes? Thapelo: could you please wash them for us? Me: and what do I get in return? Thato: anything Me: anything? I asked with a huge smile on my face Thapelo: yes pumpkin anything Me: okay then there's this birthday celebration I'm invited to on... Them: no!! Me: just let me finish Them: no!! Thato: you not going anywhere pumpkin forget it Me: I guess you should get going, coz the dishes won't wash themselves Thapelo: okay ke, finish Me: so our deputy head boy Liam invited me to his birthday celebration on Saturday and I want you guys to cover for me, Mom and Dad should not suspect a thing Thato: and how are we suppose to do that? Me: you guys are going to sleep here in my room till I come back, for incase mom comes to check up on me Thapelo: you must be back by Twelve sharp Me: no problem Thato: and you are going to wash the dishes for the next 3 months Me: hell no!! Thapelo: 3 weeks ke Me: it will do We sit and talk, well we were kind of like arguing till I fell asleep. I'm woken up by an annoying sound on my phone "alarm"!, these two were still here they slept with me yesterday, my head is rested on Thapelo's back. I got up and went to the bathroom to take a bath, got out lotioned and wore my school uniform, the weather today was sunny so I went for my short sleeve shirt, a tie, my skirt and stalkings, I decided not to wear a blazer today. I comb my short hair and did edges before applying lip gloss. I looked myself in the mirror before exiting the bathroom
