TATTOOS HAVE MEANINGS.

"Squeee! " my father finally said yes. I could not come into terms with what actually happened a few minutes ago, but my father bloody said yes. He agreed to my brother and I going to a friend's party something both my parents never approved of,   especially my mother who was strict when it came to house parties.

The party was to be held on Friday evening till dawn and one thing for sure I had to be on fleek on that night. Am not bragging but being the second most attractive girl in school I had to up my game especially when it came to my fashion sense, I went to an extent of watching YouTube tutorials for some help. I smiled at the thought of picturing my best friend, Tina telling me of how materialistic I was everytime I did up my fashion game.

It was my first year in highschool but I had soo much fame, maybe its because of my beauty. Many people liked me and I got many compliments of how beautiful and short I was, even teachers called me weird romantic names. I remember one time I went for detention because of how my laughter emanated across the room when one of the teachers called me
"Spicy mommy"

OMG, its already 3pm and I have to go shopping for my dress. Checking my iPhone, there is a message from Tina and notifications from my twitter and Kik. handle. I open the message from Tina, Tina is coming to pick me up 15 minutes from now we go shopping. I take a shower real quick and dry my hair. I wore my pink tank top and my black leather shorts and put on some boots. I did a light make up real quick. Just then Tina walked in, she looked flawless. She was taller than me and very beautiful. She wore a black pair of jeans, a black sleeveless shirt and black ankle boots. The outfit looked simple but the black colour looked really good on her. It made her look confident, reminding me of how we became best friends.

It was actually my first day in high school. I was quite nervous and happy at the same time. Its not like I liked school or anything. I just anticipated to see how highschool looked like, that is why I hardly slept on that night. I kept imagining, the cute boys my cousin Caleb talked about, the beautiful girls, the top games, parties and all that.

My mother dropped me to school the next day because to her at that time I was too young to own a car. Before getting out of the car I looked around, the school was great and huge. The buildings looked a little bit old but beautiful. There were many people at large, some of the parents dropping their children and waving them goodbye.

I alighted from the car hoping that in some few weeks I will feel at home. I waved my brother and my mum goodbye. There were many students outside the buildings, some of them were stealing glances towards me. I opted to touch the end of my hair because that is what I always did when I was nervous, it did help alot I must say.

I walked past the students ready to enter the main school building.

" Hey, new girl " the voice came from behind, definitely it was for me maybe.

I looked behind to be precise and a tall beautiful girl came running towards me. I was not a person who did tolerate company but I really did need some company in the school

She took her position beside me.

"Hey, am Tina. "

She was pretty, her hair was in a pony. And she looked at me and gave me a smile and I smiled back. She really looked like a very social person. I bet she is very popular.

"Am Talisha "

"Nice to meet you Talisha"

" My pleasure"

Curious, "and,  how did you know am new here? "

Smirking, "you had no tattoos all over your body. "

"In this school many people get tattoos on a daily routine. " "They believe that, Tattoos have meanings."

She showed me a tattoo on her right arm. It was a picture of a woman and right next to it was a word calligraphed, Beloved.

" I got this tattoo as a remembrance of my late mother. "

"Am sorry. "

"Don't be, its fine. "

This is where the start of a new friendship began.
