Liliths Boy adventure

My frugal mother

My name is Lilith Lin, im 16 and go to Eastside High. Its a co-ed school and definitely public.
Not many there are very rich or how you can say standard.

Making my way through the dusty halls of my house thats in shambles. I get ready for another day. Proceeding with my ritual of being clean. I be careful not to use to much water or have any unneeded lights on.

Putting on my socks and shoes I fix my worn out bedsheets to their original neatness.
The house seemed quite as I guessed my mother had went to one of her many jobs

As you can tell Im indeed broke,
pennyless. After my dad had suddenly vanished one day he left us his big debts too. Unfortunately, without even a goodbye my mom wasnt sad for long before trying to pay them. Before soon she turned frugal, entering in many contest along with magzines, lotterys and coupons.

At times when I recurring boxes fill the halls of many things. Like bottles of oil or ton of watermelons.
I know we were poor but she could hold off on all the free stuff.

I sigh seeing the TV left on which was a show about man. Talking about how a lucky person would win a scholarship to a school money and a lifestyle worth of essential oils. I unconciously made a cringey face at the screen. Hopping my mother hadn't seen the deal.
Before she casted in tickets to win. I could help but laugh to myself while I walked out the door. I glanced at the dying shrug next to the door. As I walked to open my gate its looked rusty and looked ready to fall off. I noticed my Mom had probaly noticed

I noticed some red tape along the railing and where it connects to the fence. I also cringed and hope if we get more money to fixed it. Walking to the school for extra excersize I made to the school gates seeing my two friends.

Waving to them with a weary smile they smiled back. The first ran up to me was Olivia Rees. With blonde hair and blue eyes. Her short figure rushed over to ask what the sulky face was.
One of the cutest girls I've met she was not from here, England her home land.  Unlike the others she was probably the most well off in the whole school, the only reason here was because she begged her dad she wanted to travel the world.

"Lilith! What is with the sulky face?" She asked worried. I laughed it off shrug. "My gates kinda getting rusty-" I said rubbing the back of my neck.
"Man Lilith one of these days you'll  need a new gate" my other friend butted in.

Faith Robert's, a friend I've been friends with for a but longer then Olivea. Having her curly hair in a bun she smirked. Her brown skin having bandages on her hands where she acidently hit a volley ball wrong. Un like Olivia she struggled to make friends taht could deal with her.

"Oh shut up you, wild boar" I laughed out raising an eyebrow.
Her eyebrows furrowed "Your just mad because you have smaller chest" she shrugged off nonchalant. I couldnt belive she said that, well kinda we talked about it many times and usually it ends with her saying that but this time I'm ready. "Well maybe mine wont sag like a grandma when I get older" I giggled out.

It wasnt the best but it was enough to make the two laugh. While Faith raised an eyebrow to that. "One of these day Lilith you'll cut all your hair and it might be me" she threstened jokingly. Olivia gasped grasping one of my long braids. "No way Faith! Theses are lucious locks can never be cut" she said worriedly

I laughed along with the others as we diverted ways. Going into my class for and sitting on my desk near the window as I peered out I watched as the boys played in the field.
