not...anymore?

"What's gotten into you Shayna?" Estelle asked, while I'm on the schoolground's stairs. The first place I occupy whenever they come to school.

I come to school just before early dawn only to sit here in peace. When you've got nobody to accompany you, you prefer to leave the home as soon as possible.

"What are you talking about? I'm normal." I replied calmly to the question.

"It's okay if you wanna keep things from me. I respect your personal space. But couldn't you just be honest and tell me not to bother you, instead of lying to me!! You're such an inconsiderate friend Shayna! You don't even take care of yourself and don't even let me do it! I hate you for doing so! " Estelle snaps at me. She's really a whiny kid who just can't take it when it comes to our friendship.

"Oh come on, I just watched an intense comic tonight that's why I'm just thrilled of it!" I made up an excuse, not really wanting to tell her a thing of which I myself am not sure of. Estelle didn't quite buy it and assured me that she maybe helpful in whatever is bothering me.

"I guess, I have a C..Crush." In my whole life, I've stuttered for the first time. Well, something's not in it's place.

"Oh really! Who's the lucky guy?!" Estelle investigated, really curious about the thing I told her.

"The guy I'm performing with." I responded, she was really confound, i could tell, seeing my calm state.

"I have seen girls getting all shy and blush like crazy while telling about their crushes, but you're so normal with it. You're straight forward as hell, that makes you the girl I like the most!" Estelle said, I hit her forearm softly and chuckled a bit.

"You admit your feelings. seems like it's serious. Don't loose him if he's worth it! And don't lose yourself if he's a jerk! Just be yourself and don't try to change him too." Estelle simply adviced to the love rookie like me.

"You sound so much like a sixty year old." I said, she gasped dramatically and we shared a laugh.

"Hey! did you check out Nas's new composition?! it's so great, Shayna! you would really love it for sure!" Estelle exclaimed. I nodded at her in response.

"Yeah, his compositions are quite great. I'm just waiting for him to add one more masterpiece to his rap collection though."

One of my hobbies could be concluded as creating new beats and rhythms. However, I couldn't afford to own a music studio by herself, I have an application on my cellphone which is rare.

"Would you remember me when you're famous?" Estelle asked, Puppy eyes graced by the sparkles, I was really astound as what to say to such an adorable piece of flesh.

"Who wouldn't remember a dumbass like you." I replied in a mocking tone trying to get on her nerves, Major Role of every bestie. We both snicker and giggle, fighting with each other playfully.

Everyday, we spend our time like this. Today was not different than daily. Only until a nuisance appear and ruin the mood.

"Hey, Shayna shit. get up, I wanna talk to you." The so-called pretty Idol of the school, Zoe commanded, expecting me to listen to her. But lil girl doesn't know who she's tryna mess with.

"Wanna kiss my ***?" I responded with a death glare, already pissed off by the attitude she's talking with. She could have just simply asked me to stand up if she wanted to have a fair fight. But now, the done is done. She's chosen the wrong way; me playing dirty.

"Well, tryna be arrogant huh. Talk like this again and I'm gonna kick in you in the guts, bi*ch! Now listen you sh*t. Stay away from my man if you don't want yourself in any trouble." She spits out poop, earning scoff and chuckles in response.

"I can't recall getting closer to any creep you've been hooking up with. Obviously, I wouldn't want to do that only if I want to acquire some germs." I crossed hands accross my chest with a grin.

"Who the **** are you to be talking to me like that, you lowlife! Do you even know the consequences of these!! Don't blame me when I kick your *** to get you away from my man! Whom you're trying to seduce, with whom you're planning to dance. That hottie is mine." She explained her daydream, her minions adding up the background music. Pretending to be interested in the talk, I nodded my head, as if I'm trying to hark back on her memory if I've ever danced with anyone. Keyword :- Pretending.

"OH! you're talking about him!! I can't get it together in my head. He never mentioned you as his girlfriend. Are you such a disgrace to him such that he didn't even mention your name, not even for once?!" I asserted with an innocent tone.

"Don't talk bullshit! Who mentions their girlfriend on meeting someone for the first time? You b*tch!" She starts to panick, a guilty conscience needs no accuser.

"Oh, perhaps can you tell me his name? I've been addressing him with hey's all along the practice. That kinda seems rude right? and I'm generous enough not to be rude to my fellow classmate's boyfriend. So bother telling me his name?" I exactly pointed out the main point. The only talent I've been born with was I could dug into the insides of hell in an instant and take out punch lines.

"I.. Uh.. I, you know... I can't tell you his name." She starts stuttering, signifying my victory. It's been obvious since start who would win. I smirked, proud at myself.

"Oh come on, Shayna. What are you trying to pull? She apparently doesn't even know her own man's name. Living in imaginations isn't good for you as well as others, Zoe bi*ch." Estelle adds up to her nervousness.

She stated those words in an extremely sexy tone with a triumphant chuckle following up. I gave her a "You-prove-to-be-my-daughter" look with a pat on her head. The brief moment of our sisterhood was immediately intercepted by the ugly voice of Zoe.

"You bitches better not dare to near him again or be ready to get ruined! Sl*ts!" she tries to escape embarrassment and put on a 'I won anyway' look which was absolutely of no use as everyone knows who won the show.

"Piece of shit doesn't of know his name, still trying to claims him her own. Wh*res be  struggling to get into every other dude's pants." Estelle comments when Zoe exits the scene. I scoffed.

"Atleast, we've got some fun to poke at. let's just watch what she's got. Let's go." I assured Estelle that I'm really looking forward to whatever shit she's gonna come up with next.

We both enter the class with so much commotion and occupy our seats. Finley, the mutual buddy of the girl gang is always late. No wonder he just occurs to be a sleepy head.

Followed by the teachers steps, we both laugh hearing Finley running towards classroom trying to arrive before the teacher. Lucky enough, today he runs into the classroom just a fraction of second before the teacher. Miss. Martin giggles at his silly *** but soon obtained her stiff character by fixing her glasses.

"Shut up everyone! Take your seats." She yelled at the kids who are studying in freaking grade 11.

Each student settled down and she didn't waste a second to start the discussion. No one was really paying attention to the class, trigonometry does play a role of lullaby for students.

After a lot of suffering, we got a lunch break. Me and buddies step towards cafe and seeing the huge crowd, I let out a sigh. I tried to find a place to sit. Estelle initiates to buy a meal for them and I was really grateful of her.

"Why's she taking to long..... Huff!" I whined with a frown, Finley giggles at me whining like this just because of food. I hit his head playfully, for 'offending' me.

Whilst waiting for Estelle, I bumped into shade somehow. More like he approached me.

"I can't make it to practice today. You can go on your own after school." Shade informed, to which I nodded.

"Hey! what's your name again?" Just at the moment, Estelle jumped up.

"Hello, pretty lady. Name's shade." He smiled at her, looked back at me and headed back after throwing wink at her. Estelle blushes and heads to sit beside me. Truth be told, I was pissed off a little, god knows why.

"Perhaps, he's just a playboy." I said with an annoyed face.

"Aww come on! are you jealous!" Estelle, as always, doesn't miss out a chance to tease me.

"He's not my crush anymore. He's just pervert. Not my type." I responded to her while shaking my head sideways. Estelle lets out a sigh.

"Let's just focus on the food." Finley says not caring about me having a crush. He just cares about stuff which is really serious. So not a matter of his concern.

After all the school stuff, we all leave for our peace of mind. I'm headed to the game center, Estelle and Finley to the girl's residence.

_

"I'm gonna kick your ***, opponent!" She agressively says out, completely concentrating on the game screen.

"Young lady, make sure you're at a public space." The supervisor of the department has said this for the tenth time since evening. I gave him a death glare and said "I'm mafias secret daughter. Make sure not to offend me!"

"ZAMNNN!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.

"Miss, what does Zamn mean?" The pathetic supervisor asks her so that she could remain calm for a little bit of time.

"Zombies ate my neighbours." I replied quickly.

"You appear a pro in this game. your voice is really threatening isn't it?" The other side of the battle spoke.

"Ofcourse I'm dope, Zaddy." I exclaimed. I've been here after so long, I'm about to explode out of excitement.

"You're kinda interesting." The guy converses with me whilst fighting.

"Are you interested in skirt chasing?! I can't help you, Zaddy. I'm a tomboy." I replied the anonymous opponent.

"And what if I'm tryna get into your pants?" The unfamiliar voice responds. The sound this time came out a bit strange. As if he's doing something other than playing.

"Whoa, you're worth, Zaddy. Savage, I'm impressed." I added, "But, DUH! I'm not interested. Boom." I doomed the game with a cool comeback at the unnamed dude.

With a loud sigh, I rested my head on the head of the comfortable chair and took off the headphones.

"At last, you're the one who lost. but you've won my interest, Zaddy." I giggled at myself and further spread out, causing my head to turn one-eighty degree behind. I could see everything behind me, upside down.

"Wait- is it him? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!"
