"Damn, that shit was dope!"

NYLA HARRIS walked through the hallways of Washington Preparatory High School, with her best friend Lisa Waters. This was the last day of school and she couldn't wait to go home. They were now at their lockers, gathering all of their stuff.

"Do you like it?" Lisa asked, showing the purple polish on her nails. "Yeah, it's pretty." Nyla answered. "I don't like it." Lisa said. "Okay, so, go change it." Nyla told her. "You wanna go with me?" Lisa quizzed. "Girl, please, as if." Nyla scoffed.

"Girl, you know I'll pay. Don't worry about it." Lisa assured. "No, it's okay. Besides, I gotta watch my little brother." Nyla said. "Well, tomorrow, then?" Lisa suggested. "I don't know, Lisa." Nyla shrugged. "Please." Lisa pleaded.

"Okay. You get on my nerves." Nyla said, making her laugh. "I love you too." Lisa joked, playfully nudging her. "Mhm, whatever." Nyla replied, making her smile. "You know you love me too, don't even do that." Lisa voiced.

"Come on, girl." Nyla said, shutting her locker close and carrying her textbooks. "Look, ima catch you later. I gotta go meet up with D." Lisa told her, and she nodded. "Aight. Have fun with your man." Nyla teased, making Lisa smirk.

"Whatever. See you, best friend." Lisa waved, before walking off.

Nyla began walking down the hallway by herself and making her way towards the exit. She pulled out her cassette player and wrapped the headphones around her neck, before walking outside.

Nyla was on her way to the bus, when she felt someone tap her on the shoulder. She turned around and saw her friend, O'Shea, standing there.

"Oh, what's up, Cube?" Nyla greeted. "Hey, Nyla." Cube replied. "You riding the bus today?" Nyla asked him. "Of course." Cube responded. "Good, because I hate riding that fucking bus alone." Nyla stated.

"You wanna roll with me to Jinx's?" Cube asked. "Uh, I don't know. I have to watch my brother, so he'd have to come too." Nyla told him. "Aight, that's cool. Jinx's mom could watch him." Cube stated.

"Okay. Fuck it. We'd have to walk by my house and get him first, though." Nyla said.

"Aight, cool." Cube shrugged.

"Let's hurry, before we miss this hot ass bus." Nyla remarked, making him laugh.
