Not proofread

I woke up quite early today . I'll take a bath , tidy up the whole house , prepare all my school stuff and take a two or three hour nap.

When I left the room earlier this morning,  uncle Bastard was not here anymore.  I thanked my lucky star.

Else he would have done something I would never bear .

After taking a bath . I tidy the house . Having done that too . I head back to my room.

I prepare all the things I'll need on my first day at school .

My phone rings , interrupting me .

I groan to myself and take the phone in my hand .

It's Tamara . I smile upon seeing his name . Well , her name .

Her preferable pronouns are She, her,herself. 

He's actually gay .

He's my only friend.  My best friend to be specific.

"Girl ! Before you say anything.  You need some explaining to do ." She says on the other side of the line before I could even say a word .

"You have ghosted me for almost two weeks now." She yells .

"Listen babe. I-'' She doesn't give me a chance to say anything.

"I'm not done talking.  Don't interrupt me " she says.

"Okay . Go on" I say. Letting her yell at me all She wants .

"You make me so mad ! " She says , finally stopping blubbering non stop .

"Can't I explain now?" I ask her .

"I hope it's a good explanation" she says .

"I got caught up with work . I was busy preparing for school . It's starting a few days as you know " I say .

"Did you get enrolled ?" She asks .

"Yes babe !" I say with full excitement in my voice.

"You lie !" She says .

"I'm dead serious " I say .

She squeaks like a little rat and I can't help but laugh.

"That's wonderful" she says .

We talk for almost an hour.

"I have to go babe . We'll see each other in a few day's time" she says,  dropping the call .

I feel happy after talking to my best friend . I had missed her so much .

I put my phone down and start putting everything In order . My books , textbooks... everything. 

My dad told me he'd take care of the bills.

So the money I earned this month was to but stationery and a back pack .

There was still a lot of change that I saved up .

Having done everything that needed to be done , I went to bed. 

I need a nap really badly . I barely did anything but I was so tired . I guess it's due to lack of sleep.

...

Days passed and neither mom , nor dad had returned . Uncle Bastard on the other hand tried coming in the house but I never opened the door for him.  I kept the door locked since , I don't know when.  I never left the house since the day my parents left.

Tomorrow I'm going to school.  It happened too quickly . Days passed in a jiffy. I was so excited because I'd be seeing my best friend tomorrow.

I'd also be meeting new people. The feeling in indescribable.  I'm elated .

I make myself some food when I was done, I went to watch a movie .

It was a comedy . I laughed throughout the whole film. 

I received a call from Tamara today . We talked until the sun set .

The day passed quickly and I decided to go to bed.

I set an alarm on my phone. 5:30.
