Hello everybody I am back and I have a new story hope you enjoy it xxx

Alisha's POV

Hey I am Alisha people call me Ash but you know whatever I am a typical girl well not really I'm not all cute girly girl but I love makeup and hair I want to follow in my mothers footsteps as a beautician hopefully one day be a we'll know famous makeup artist hairstylist.

Well I am a black girl yeah from Africa born but raised in London, I get racist comments thrown at me all the time and when I react I get in trouble yeah I know what you're thinking it's the 21st century racism doesn't exist oh well hunny those little comments are still racist don't get me started anyway I'm used to it now but I don't really care to be honest well I do but not that much once I kicked a guy in his balls and now he can't have children hahaha I'm joking but I did kick him. What it's not that bad I mean he did call me the 'N word' friendly or not do you expect me to let him say that about me no way.

And guess who got in trouble yeah me whatever but seriously I re-

"Ash get down here now" my mum screams from the bottom of the stairs crap my mum sounds angry.
I live alone with her my father died when I was young he was a war veteran he's my hero I never really knew him that well but I remember his scruffy beard and his wavey hair I always used to brush it for him I'd hide his durags all the time it was the funniest thing, but its alright now I got my mum and she's always there for me.

"Ash I'm not speaking gibberish get down here now I need to talk to you" I walk down the stairs to my mum her hazel brown eyes glaring at me. "Mum you look beautiful" she has short curly hair just touching her shoulders and some light makeup on she works as a hair dresser I work there part time it's not a lot of money but it's something.
" Oh don't you start"

"Yes mum" I say innocently giving her the best baby face I could pull.

"I just got a letter from your school saying you kicked a guy in his private parts what have I told you about this Ash" she tilts her head to the side frowning at me.

"Mum he was being racist people can't just casually go around calling people the 'N word' and I'm not just gonna stand there and take it I have to react or everybody's gonna be doing it"

"Ash I get that but still you can't be doing that you're gonna get kicked out and I want my only child to have a good education go to university and do something good in life I don't want you to turn out like me I didn't get that in life if I had the opportunity you have free education teachers not whopping my ass if I get in trouble I'd be so much higher in life other than just owning a hairdresser, please Ash for me try to behave you're a good girl would you're father be proud to see his little biscuit getting in fights" my mum smirks she knows I hate that nickname my dad used to call me little biscuit it was one of the few words I know how to say 'Mama, Papa, Bikit'

"Okay okay I'm sorry just don't call me biscuit god it's embarrassing ma"

" I want you to apologise to the boy please his mother comes to the store some times I can't afford to loose a customer please Ash"

"Huh I'm sorry what did you just say" is she mad she wants me to apologise to that racist pig.
"Please you don't have to mean it, just so when I see his parents there isn't too much tension that woman gives a big tip after her trim please"

"Fine fine"

"There's my girl now come here" she gives me a hug "Now go get ready the new neighbours are coming over for dinner they moved from America can you believe it a American neighbours how exciting"
