"Mom!" I yelled from my room, currently, my room looks like a war place, things are everywhere here and there and... whatever! 'Where the hell is my contacts? Where in potatoes did I put them?' in the bathroom? No... Kitchen? Eh, I don't think so.
"What is it, honey? And why is your room like this?" Mum asked when she got inside my room.
"I'll clean it up before leaving" I interrupted what I knew she will say "I just can't find my contacts"
"Can't remember where you put it again? Try ---"
"Mum, I said I will arrange my room later, I just need to find my contacts before Bam comes to pick me up," I said already feeling frustrated.
"Honey, why do you need your contacts? You're a beautiful girl. Your glasses are great on you" she told me as she helped me fold my clothes.
"You're just saying that because I am your daughter" I replied with a sigh.
"You know, that's the issue with you," Mum said and went to sit beside me on my bed. She put some of my curly black hair behind my ear "You don't listen when someone tells you the truth and makes a big deal out of the lies you hear all the time" Mum sighed and took my hands in hers. "Baby girl you're beautiful, don't and I mean don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Okay?" I nodded in response.
"Okay, Mum!" I smiled at her "Thank you"
"Nah don't thank me" she kissed my hair and said, "now hurry up with arranging and come eat before Bamrik finishes her food" Mum stood up and walked towards the door "And maybe eat yours," with that mum left. Holy shell. I quickly arranged my room well not properly, but it still looks okay. Yeah. Bamik is a vampire when it comes to food. 'Anything that is edible' my subconscious reminded me. Yeah, I still love her that way.
I still couldn't find my contacts and made a mental note to look for it after I get back, I rushed downstairs and saw Bam, Mum, and Dad sitting on the dining chair talking, and I made my presence known and went to give Dad a kiss on his cheek. Mum got up to get my breakfast but I stopped her and went to get it myself.
When I got back and sat beside Bam she whispered to me "Your mum told you I was here already, eh?" and put two pancakes in her mouth something she'll do I rolled my eyes.
"yeah she did, and I don't want to get angry at my beautiful, not too a good eating friend after she maybe finishes my food, it's a beautiful day let's not fight, but you get the gist, okay?" I said. She muttered a 'whatever'.
When we were done we helped clean up and Mum and Dad went to the Library like they do every time, 'weirdos!' I muttered and when we were done we headed for the door after leaving them a goodbye text.

"Hey girls" we heard someone say behind us as we entered Believe High School 'our school' and we turned to look at the person and it was Generous, he was smiling at us, well mostly at Bamrik.
Okay let me tell you a little story, Generous Michael Filet has and I mean for a long time had a crush on Bamrik, since we were in middle school or when he moved into the neighborhood, erm... I don't know but you get it's for a long time. I don't exactly know why she chose not to date him, but Generous is a fine guy, like with that ocean blue eyes, pink nicely shaped lips. Don't forget he is buff and all and—wait what the hell am I saying? Don't get it wrong okay, I have no feelings or whatsoever for him. But I wished she would at le--
"Let's go" my thoughts were interrupted when Bamrik dragged me down the hallway towards our class, I turned to look at a sad-looking Generous oh poor guy, what did she say to him.
Bamrik is a really nice girl but she can be really savage or let's say 'SHe can be really blunt'. I stopped in my tracks when we turned a corner making Bamrik stop as well.
"What did you say to him again?"
"What? must I say something bad or what?"
"Bam we both know how blunt you can be sometimes," I say to her and she rolled her eyes and told me what she told him that made him sulk.
"Girl, be careful with your words, unknowingly to you you're hurting people with it," I told her when we got to class and settled in our usual seat at the window side.
"Am sorry"
"Am not the one you should be saying sorry to" she just rolled her eyes at me, "And I am sure you saw some sense while rolling your eyes" I say making her stick her tongue out at me and at that moment Mr. Philip our math teacher, came in the class and told us we were having a test, earning groans and some cheers from people in the class.
"You know it won't hurt to give him a chance, he seems like a nice guy" I whispered to her.
"Shut up" she whispered back.
"Would you like to share something with us, Miss Alfredo and Miss Roger?" Mr. Philip asked and we both looked up at him
"No sir," we said in unison.
"Okay, so you have thirty minutes to finish this up" he checked his time "and your time starts now"
We then went on to finish up the quiz we were given 'easy', I thought to myself.
After we were done he took our test booklet and we continued where he stopped in the last class. 'Geometry'. I rolled my eyes at how of all mathematical topics that topic keeps keeping me in dismay. He asked some questions here and there to know if we understand the topic more clearly.
"So make sure to complete this exercise and it has to be submitted by my next class, am I clear?"
"Yes sir" we all replied and the bell rang just in time. 'Lunch break' we all got out to the cafeteria, I and Bam had to walk fast to get there before anyone does. We always take a particular seat in the cafeteria and that's like the best spot and other students have been anticipating to seat there first when it is lunch break.
When we got there we sat down and Bam volunteered to get us our food. It not like they sell great food here.
"Look what they got on here," Bam said bringing just a plate of what looks like pudding, it looks disgusting though.
"Do we actually pay for this?" I asked looking at the plate disgustingly.
"Do we have a choice?" Bam asked I shrugged. "but no need to be bothered anymore" she began and brought out take away from her bag "Bam Bam's here to the rescue" she smiled as she lay out what was the content of the plastic bag.
I opened my mouth and wondered how on earth she got that, we were practically together the whole day, so how did she? How... why am I surprised? It's Bamrik Estella Roger we are talking about, she can and will do the unthinkable (not bad stuff) to get her food anywhere anytime.
"Should I ask how you got this whole package when we were together all through today or just enjoy the fact my bestie is a foodie?" I asked already knowing the answer.
"Just enjoy dear friend" Bam replied with her mouth full of burgers and fries.
I shook my head 'she won't at all choke...unlike me the unprofessional eater' like mum will say when she sees Bam in this state and worries she will choke, so she just says that so Bam doesn't feel bad or so.
I put some fries in my mouth and drank the strawberry yogurt she got me with it.
Bam thinks it's weird to take yogurt and not ice-cream, but who is she to question what I eat and don't? Yep, my bestie.
We reviewed the questions of the math test we took not too long ago, and pointed out what we had difficulties with, and solved it while we were eating.
Hopefully, we do better next time.
