Maya's P.O.V
"We can't keep doing this Shawn"
"I know that Katy.I'm trying to work extra shifts at work,it'll give us some help"
"Ya well I work til night everyday and it's not enough to keep us going"
Is what I hear before I walk into the kitchen.
They both see me and say good morning and smile like nothing happened.
"What's going on?"
"Nothing,you should be heading to school now Maya"
"I know that,but can I please know what's happening here?"
My mom sighs and sits in front of me.
"We're getting kicked out"
"Why what happened"
"Nothing,it's just we haven't payed rent and we're trying,we really are.It's just not enough"Shawn says.
"Oh"my voice cracks.
"Hey,hey it's ok baby girl.I promise it'll be ok.We're going to stay here ok.Just don't think about it,I promise it'll be fine"
I give her a nod and my mom kisses me on the cheek.
"Have a good day kiddo"
I walk out the door and blink my tears away.
........
"Maya?...Maya...Maya!"I hear.
I snap out of my thoughts and look at Mr.Matthews.
"Oh...sorry"
"Maya were you paying attention?"
"No"
The whole class laughs and he rolls his eyes.
"Well pay attention and stop thinking about whatever is in your head.This lesson is way more important"
"Ya,more important than losing my home"I sarcastically say in my head.
The bell then rings and everyone leaves.
"Next time pay attention Maya"
"I know,I get it"
I walk to the cafeteria and I notice my friends already sitting down and talking to each other.
I get my lunch and sit away from them.
They don't even seem to notice.
"Looks like you lost the friends you don't deserve"
Missy Bradford and her stupid group says before going to their table.
I'm so tired of this.
First I might lose my home,and everyday my friends barely notice me and Missy and her group always gangs up on me.
"Hey,why aren't you sitting with us?"I hear a voice say.
I look up and see Lucas across from me.
