BRONX, NY JAISHA RIVERA ▃▃▃▃▃
I never really grew up with a father figure. It was always my mom and step dad. My father was black and my mom was Dominican. She wasn't as strict as my dad.
She didn't allow us too cuss, only a few words like 'damn' , 'nigga' and that's pretty much it. Being raised in the Bronx people would refer to a female like me as a 'treesh' or a
'Smoochie' but me on the other hand i was nothing like that, I've never had a boyfriend before, dudes would ask me out but I would always reject them.
Or even ghost them. Hopefully at my new high school I can change that?
"Jaisha! Get up you finna be late ms gurl." My mom shook me out of my sleep, "okay mama give me five minutes please." I begged. "No. Jaisha up now" my mom straight faced me.
I layed in my bed with my eyes open looking around the room, before getting up, "thank yo— I'm doing this for me." I cut my mom off.
But my step father James happen to hear what I said and took it as me disrespecting her, "jaisha what I told you bout disrespecting your mama?" He asked me.
"That's not disrespecting. I simply said I'm doing it for me not her." I turned around seeing both of them standing outside my bathroom door.
"Young lady— James baby leave it alone for me." My mom cut him off, "okay bae..." he rolled his eyes.
I took me a 20 minute shower, did my skin care and brushed my teeth, i was now doing my edges in my bathroom.
"Jaisha school start in 10 minutes hurry up!" My mom knocked on the door. "Okay I'm finished." I said opening the bathroom door.
I walked over to my bed picking up my phone off the charger, i put it in my back pocket and put on my white Apple Watch and took my AirPods.
Forgot to tell y'all, I got dat motion.
"Alright mama I'm ready." I said fully putting on my spray ground bookbag. "My baby growing up so fast!" My mom fake cried.
"Let me take your pictures— no mama please, I'll have someone take them for me.." i cut her off.
"Y-you sure baby?" She said, "yes mama lets go I'm already late a bit." I said walking out the front door, i walked over to my moms bmw.
"Okay baby I love you." My mom said recording me thinking I don't know. "Mama I know you recording me" i laughed.
"Oh shut up! Getcho ass to school." She said as i got in the car and drove to school.
