1. "Hi! Nice to meet you! I'm so glad that we are meeting each other!"
“Whoa, too much, um...I guess that would work, no, too much Kierra, and now I'm talking to myself again, I'm so not ready for college...."
knock knock
"Who is it?"
A girl comes into her room, all dolled up, wearing a beautiful thick curly hairstyle, a short red dress and heels, with doll-like makeup and you know accessories, in other words, she's beautiful.
"Hey sis, going on another date? Whatever happened to dating Shawn?"
"Oh, him, he had other women, and plus he was one of those kids with Arkemia, so, it just didn't work, you know, with all that he is dealing with."
"This is your seventh date now though?" "So? Hopefully it will be my final match with another guy."
"Oh, well I hope it goes well, I’m praying for Shawn."
"Thanks lil sis, and don’t worry, I’m praying for him too.” The girl’s sister smiles, until she stops, saying, “hope that college you applied for is going to let you in, since you just graduated and all, or you could come in the graphic designing field with me." "I said that I wanted to drive first, that's all."
"Alright, well you have time to make your decision, bye."
Later on, Kierra walks toward the bathroom where she passes her brother, who happened to come over this day, as well as her other brother, who happens to be downstairs.
"Hey, Kaleb, when did you get here?" "Well, just now, and I'm going to be going overseas next week, and I wanted to see you guys before I go. I was just coming to my old room for some pictures, when I was just in the army." He walks past her into his room, causing her to look at him saying, "they're in the top draw!"
"I know!" He says from a far.
She walks downstairs and sees her parents laughing and talking with her oldest brother, Kevin, who is a government worker, and has a baby girl with his wife Jeva. He screams happy, and holding his cup of wine properly, he seems to be slightly drunk or whatever, but you can never tell with him, he soaks everything in, and holds things dry.
Kierra walks in the living room and says, "hey Kevin." "Ah, lil sis, i'm sorry I couldn't make it to your graduation, had to work all night last week, but I want to know what plans you have now."
"Plans?
"Yes, do you know what you want to do now?"
My mind went blank here, what do I want to do, I never thought about it exactly, it's always either soldier, designer, or businesswoman, but none of them scream me, my siblings have those jobs, they give me everything of theirs, but I don't know me, what do I want to do? What can I do? My siblings are so talented and amazing, besides Keisha's dating problem, but still...I need something of me, even everything I have belongs to my sister, from clothes, furniture, toys, makeup, and objects, I honestly can't tell what my favorite color is, maybe...purple, yeah, because my sister loves pink. Oh...They all can sing! Powerhouses! But, I, kinda, my high pitched voice is no match to them, my parents can sing, so, why am I left out of this beautiful trait?
Why am I the only one who can't draw, who gets left out of everything, even by my own parents? They see me as, oh, Kerra, Kara, oh Kierra, far fetched, but it's that bad that they mine as well do that to me, I'm out stead and talentless, it saddens me so much, is it homeschooling? No, because at the graduation, I was with 180 other kids, so, no, it's something else, and that something else, I'm going to find out.
