Chapter 4

Yeah yeah

I met me a good African girl

We gotta no you know me I don't waste time

They say good things take-

Rolling over, I shut my alarm clock off. I had only one class for today and since the bakery was still shut down I would go to the community centre for a couple of hours before linking up with Kerry to do mine and Jessica's hair.

I picked out my outfit for the day as usual, laying it on the bed before hopping in the shower and taking care of my hygiene.

It was Thursday and I was excited that we were closer to the weekend. Jessica was dragging Shari and I to the club tomorrow night and I certainly wasn't excited to go.

With my breakfast completed, I grabbed my book bag, sliding my iPad in along with one notebook for the only class I would be having today. I didn't want to carry too much since I would be going over to Kerry's after.

Getting on the bus, I sat at the front waiting for my stop, bothered by how crowded and hot it was. When we got to my stop, I quickly hopped off the bus and walked to the tutorial class, seeing how I only had 15 minutes until the beginning of the class.

"Okay class. I'm not going to do too much for this tutorial seeing how it is our second last" Mr Jeff said as he pulled out a stack of papers from his briefcase. "I'm just going to hand out a revision worksheet. You are to answer all the questions and if there is anything you do not understand do not hesitate to ask me." He said as he handed out the worksheets.

After getting it, I popped my earphones in and worked on it for the next 30 minutes.

1 hour later...

I finally made it to the community centre at 11am and walked into the office to find Miss Kay rushing about. "Miss Kay, what's going on? Are you okay?" I asked as I quickly placed my book bag down, eager to help her with whatever it was.

"Ohh honey, thank God you are here. You know how every year we are visited by the Brown family which contributes to basically 95% of our yearly budget? Well they are coming next week Friday and I have to have all the books balanced and in place." She said as she continued to pull out various folders and place them on the desk.

"Ohh wow" I said in surprise. "Yeah and we have to make a powerpoint? Is that what those things are called?" She asked "Lol... yeah Miss Kay. Don't worry though, I will certainly help you with that. Since I'm early why don't I start now? I asked her as I started pulling files out from the cabinets as well. "Thank you so much dear!" She said as she rushed to give me a bear hug.

30 minutes later...

We had finally dug up all the paperwork we would need and I was about to begin working on the spreadsheets needed to be presented, as well as the powerpoint for the presentation.

I gathered everything I needed as well as one of the community centre apple desktops and went to set up in my classroom as I waited for the children to start coming in in about half an hour.

"Hiii Miss A!" I looked up quickly and pushed my chair back, reaching my arms out as I saw one of my children running towards me. "Hi my dear!" I said as I grabbed Jonah into a bear hug, watching him blush as he stepped back. "You're a little bit early today sweetheart." I said, noticing we still had about 15 minutes before everyone was usually set to come in. "Can I pwease play with the toys?" He asked looking up at me through his cute little glasses sitting on his button nose. "Of course! Go knock yourself out!" I said as I watched him put his bag in its cubby and rush to the back of the room to pick up the toys.

4 hours later...

We had finally come to the end of the day at the community centre and I had managed to get a lot done in regards to the books, without leaving the children alone.

I had packed up everything and decided to order an uber to take me to Kerry's place. I got to the apartment complex and took the stairs up to Kerry's apartment which she sent to me in a text a couple of days before. Walking in, I saw a mini salon set up in her living room, complete with a washing station, a wall mounted dryer, a floor length mirror, chair and a mini station that everything she needed.

Jessica was already turnt up, twerking with a bottle of ciroc in her hands. Her head was half braided down in preparation for the wig that was about to be installed.

"Heyyyy bestie" Jessica yelled as she continued to twerk. "Hey babe" I said as I burst out laughing at her actions. "I hope she hasn't been too much trouble for you." I told Kerry as she looked at me and laughed, assuring me she was having fun. I set my bag on the floor and went in front of Jessica, bending over and throwing it back on her to the beat while Kerry hyped us up, recording us briefly.

"Alright girl, get back in the chair so I can finish you up." Kerry said, pulling Jess to the seat. Kerry, Jessica and I had hang out for a couple of days since we met her, getting to know her even better. She was fun and definitely fit in with us.

It had been a while since I hung out with Shari. We invited her out with us once and she came, but she seemed to have an attitude with both girls the whole night and when we were done, she let me know that she didn't really want to hang around K and Jess. I didn't really understand why she decided to act that way but either way, I wasn't going to abandon these girls for her. I had tried to chat her up for the last couple of days but she simply ignored me so I let it be.

A few moments later...

"Girlllllll, sheesh! I'm about to flex so hard!" Jess exclaimed as K fluffed up the curls in her hair. K finished off by working on the edges, as well as spraying some hair sheen.

After washing and combing out my thick 4c hair, K then proceeded to braid it down, in preparation for the wig. Unlike Jess, I didn't want long hair. I decided on an 8 inch bob wig which always suited me. After oiling my hair with some ayurvedic oil, she proceeded to place the bold cap on, gluing it down before finally laying down the wig. She then pulled out the baby hair, laid down the wig with an elastic band and proceeded to flat iron the hair. While this was going on, we were watching Bridgerton, ogling over Simon and his perfection.

A few minutes later, K was doing the finishing touches on my hair and I was feeling myself hunny. "K where have you been all my life honestly?" I exclaimed as I took a couple of selfies in her mirror, being joined by Jess. "Girls! honestly where have you been in my life? You are such a breath of fresh air."

"You know you're stuck with us now K.!" I squealed while dancing along to some music. "Now that it is sealed we definitely have to go out! Tomorrow is a public holiday so there is no excuse." K said as she yelled, going to her bedroom to pick out an outfit so we could go get ready at Jess's place.

We decided to go to a hookah bar where we could chill, smoke a little as well as dance and hopefully meet some new people. We then stopped by my place where I picked a simple dark green bodycon dress with spaghetti straps and a simple pair of black heels to go with the outfit.

I quickly rushed back downstairs and met up with the girls who decided to get some air outside while waiting for me. We headed back to Jess's place and took 2 hours getting ready before jumping into an uber and heading downtown.

When we got to Dual, the hookah bar, we were seated immediately and ordered some hookah, along with some food and a couple of drinks. We then proceeded to dance the night away without a care for anything in the world.
