The next day I woke up and ana is right by my side and I hear a small ring A PHONE!!!! I reach into my pocket and grab the phone to see Oliver texted me 

Oliver: babe are you mad at me 

  OMG !!! he thinks I'm mad I start laughing and ana wakes up  oh sh*t ¨hey how did u sleep ¨ I said 

¨good is that a phone¨ 

¨ye-¨

¨don't worry I won't snitch but who are you texting¨ ana says 

¨oliver can u believe he thinks I'm mad at him¨ 

¨dude ¨ 

¨YESS¨ ¨hold on let me text him back¨ I say 

Me: hi no I'm not mad just got my phone taken away 

Oliver: Bro you scared me 

Me: sorry  How did you sleep 

Oliver: good And you 

Me: good I miss U

Oliver: I miss U too you want to hang out later 

Me: I can ask But most likely no

Oliver: GO ask, please 

Me: Um I just got in trouble Sir I have to wait for a little 

Oliver: OK I love you 

Me: I love you too 

Oliver: bye  

You liked Oliver's message 

¨HELLO, ¨ ana says ¨ I think you forgot I was here, and eww¨

I laugh ¨omg you're such a baby your 12 get over it soon you will have someone to text ALL DAY¨ 

¨NOOO, I only love me¨ 

¨sure¨ 

¨its true¨  and pulls out her phone and starts texting someone I just go on TikTok  but then I hear the sound of my mom's feet dragging on the floor and they are coming closer and closer so I stuff the phone up the sleeve too my sweater  just in time before the door swings open ¨ana out I need to talk to avery¨ mom says 

¨k¨ ana says 

Ana walks out and shuts the door my mom sits on my bed ¨listen yesterday I went a little overboard so I apologize here's your phone and I am going to listen to your side of the story so go¨ 

What the hell is happening my mom is not the apologetic type I have exactly 3 seconds to come up with a lie ¨im holding it for a friend I swear I met her 3 days ago I promise I never did it do a drug test ¨ I said so fast I took a very long breath after my mom looked so confused ¨um okay well I was hoping you said that and I will take a drug test now that u say 

                                                **** 30 min later****

¨'ll be back ¨ mom says as she gets off the car and into the liquor store 

I was not mad tho I gave her the idea  3 minutes later she gets back in the car and tested me and I'm not even going to lie I was worried what if for some strange reason, it came out positive my heart beating really fast time is up now we have to look at it thank god it is negative I let out a little sigh ¨ I think I owe you an apology but give that back to your friend¨ 

¨I  promise so now that your not mad at me can I go out with Oliver he just texted me asking if I want to go out¨ 

¨ I would say no but I guess you can¨

¨thank you so so so much mom I love you¨ 

My mom laughs 

I texted Oliver 

me: Oliver 

*Oliver has left you on seen *

I started looking thru peoples stories and saw Oliver posted something A  GIRL . What the hell? I was so confused and mad but all I could do was delete the message. But i did not have the guts to tell him anything

  *** The next day ***

I reach over and grab my phone 1 more minute so I press snooze and go back to bed but then it goes off again it is like the universe is telling me that today will be the day I remember for the rest of my life but then I remember it's the first day of 10th grade I get up and go to my make up I start doing my makeup and one I'm finished I look at myself in the mirror fair skin tone and hazle eyes with the smallest splash of my freckles peaking through.  Now time for an outfit I look in my closet and pick some light blue jeans with a black shirt and a black sweater over  then I get a text from Oliver  

Oliver: hey what are you wearing 

I just had the filling I wanted to leave him on seen but I couldn't 

Me: a black shirt light blue jeans and a black sweater 

Oliver: and your shoes 

Me: oh idk help me 

Oliver:  Jordan 4 black cats  

Me: ok see you at school 

*Oliver liked the message *

I changed and started straitening my hair when I heard my mom wake up a few seconds go by and I hear her feet dragging toward my room then a small knock followed by the door opening ¨hey it is almost time to go you ready¨ 

¨ no I just started doing my hair give me 15 please¨ I said 

¨okay but hurry or you will be late¨ mom said 

She walked out of the room and I continued doing my hair when I finished and asked me if I could put some makeup on her and I told her yes I did a natural look on her with just bb cream concealer  and bronzer then I did her lips  and we got in our car  on the way to school we stopped to get Starbucks  ¨ your turn to order¨ says ana 

¨really¨ I say 

¨yup¨ 

¨what do you want¨ I say 

¨iced caramel macchiato with extra caramel¨ 

¨can I take your order¨ the cashier said 

¨yes please can I have an iced caramel macchiato with extra caramel and a strawberry acai with half mango dragon fruit base no water and the other half lemonade with no ice  and a cup of ice on the side¨ I said 

The cashier looked annoyed she gave me my total and I paid I look back at my sister¨ you might as well take the whole damn store your order was so big¨  

¨shut up¨ I said in a playful way 

We walked back into the car and drove to school but i- i could think about how do i walk in? How do I smile? I just didn't want to be the girl everyone hated for no reason.
