"London Zhiloh." The principal called through the microphone

The crowd roared all my fake friends stood up and clapped as I walked on stage.

I wasn't really feeling today so I just slopped my hair in a bun slipped on whatever my mom thought was nice for me to wear.

I accepted my diploma and I guess my mom saw my facial expression because she walked me off stage and to the car.

"Enjoy today baby girl." She said squeezing my hand then proceeded to drive home

"Thanks ma." I said grabbing the last box from her

"No problem baby. I'm just so happy to see my baby all grown up." She said tears coming down her face

"Ma please don't cry." I said hugging her

"Alright now baby." She said patting my back

She kissed my cheek before leaving out.

I didn't have much so it only took me the rest of the day to have it set up.

My mom said she had the "hook up" at her job so I could just slide in and start working. I had about 300 left so groceries were basically took care of. I guess I'm on that mission tomorrow.

I wanted to say my goodbyes to Joey but when I'm with him I would only think of Gerald.

I laid in bed thinking about my life. My stomach turned at the thoughts.

I couldn't help but feel bad about this but then again it's my body and Joey wasn't my boyfriend.

"I need to get it together." I said to myself for the 3rd time this month

Ugh!
