《What's Really Hood》SEVENTEEN
Advertisement
Last period finally came and I now have gym with the guys. I maneuvered my way through the crowded hallway and down the steps to the gymnasium thats located on the first floor. Friday last period is the best to be honest. I get to have fun and hang out with Chyna and the rest because it's gym. I'm really active in gym though, thinking about joining a team.
I made my way to the girls locker room and banged on the door, being too lazy to walk all the way around inside the gym and then having to enter the locker room from there. It's just too much. A line started to form behind me as a few girls waited trying to get in the locker room this way also. I banged on the door one more time getting annoyed because I clearly hear girls giggling from behind the door.
"I'm tired of these bitches in this school, I swear." A girl named Raven said out loud clearly annoyed
"Facts, all they do is suck dick and pop shit." Another girl named Jackie agreed
I snorted, trying to hold in a laugh while everyone else started laughing. Mainly at my snorting.
"What's funny Trinity?" Raven asked laughing
Raven and I never had a conversation before. She's not in any of my classes but when we're on the same team in gym, it's a different story. Raven is athletic and can get very competitive. She's a pretty, short, dark girl with a medium length bob. I envy her on how effortlessly she puts into her looks, but manages to still look good.
"It's true." I said simply jiggling the handle
"Watch out Trinity." Jackie said making her way through the small crowd thats surrounding the locker room door
Jackie is also another girl I never had a conversation with, come to think of it I don't talk to anyone but Chyna and the rest. Jackie's around my height, average, brown skin girl who has a severe temper. She's really funny in the locker room though. We can be talking about anything and she manages to make a joke about it. I moved out the way and watched as she brought her hands up to the door, turning them into fists.
"Open the gottdamn door!" She yelled banging on it like she was the feds
"This ghetto ass school." Raven said running her fingers through her hair, sighing
The door then swung open and Sara, this short Puerto Rican girl was standing there with attitude written all over her face once she looked us all over. She was one of the girls that glared at me in the car this morning. I honestly don't like her. She's a sore loser and very competitive in gym for no reason, always trash talking. And she's always half naked. She walk around the school building with nothing but a crop top and these black leggings in this kind of weather, it boggles my mind.

"Well you gonna move out the way or not? Damn." Raven said walking in pushing past her
We all piled in the locker room and went to our lockers. Where's Chyna? Her and I would usually be chatting it up by now while Kae would be with Sara gossiping.
"I mean y'all could've came into the locker room through the gym like everyone else." Sara argued
"Now why the hell would we do that?" Someone said from another section of the locker room
Everyone erupted in laughter as Sara just rolled her eyes. I smiled and unlocked my locker grabbing my school gym clothes.
"We're playing flag football today." Some girl announced walking into the locker room
Some girls got excited but I just cheered to myself, I'll probably join the flag football team. I changed into my gym clothes and put my regular clothes in my locker, locking it.
"Uh oh!" Raven exclaimed
"You know what time it is Trin!"Jackie chimed in pointing at me
I laughed agreeing "True." Was all I said
I appreciate Jackie and Raven acknowledging and including me in their conversations when Chyna isn't here at the moment, but I still feel a little out of place. My father told me to talk to more people other then the kids I already know. It's really difficult then it sounds, but I guess I can stick with Raven and Jackie for now.
As I was about to exit out of the locker room, Dominic's name quickly caught my attention. I quietly sat down on the bench and began to lace up my huaraches.
"Girl you ain't see him? He was parked right in front of the school this morning." Sara confirmed lotioning her legs
Now this is what I don't get. Girls love to spray perfume and lotion up their skin when at the end of the period, they're gonna gonna sweat it off and smell again. The late bell then rang and the locker room door opened.
Kae entered the locker room and went to her locker right next to Sara's "What y'all talking about?"
"Dominic was here this morning, and guess who was in the car with him?" Sara said putting her straight hair up in a ponytail
I rolled my eyes and finally got done tying my laces for like the past three minutes now. I left the locker room before I can hear my name being called and entered the big gymnasium. I pulled up my large sweatpants that was hanging off my butt and made my way over to my floor spot. I looked around and didn't see Chyna or Michael anywhere in sight, but I did see Chris sitting on the bleachers being surrounded by people on every side of him.

"Get to your floor spots or get a zero for today." coach said as he took a seat in front of the gym
People groaned and started sitting on their floor spots, a bunch of conversations were buzzing around me as the gym teacher was taking attendance.
"I'm going to need the boys to get your flags and go to the other side of the gym while I guide the girls." He announced
The boys went to the front of the gym to get their flags and all ran to the other side. I even spotted Michael with his gym shorts saggin' running with the football since he called quarterback.
I drowned out the instructions we were going over just wanting to play already. Raven and Jackie both ran over to me right after coach was done giving instructions. They dragged me over to the flags wanting me to be on their team. We got opposite colors as Sara as she was glaring at all of us.
"We about to catch this quick w, right Rae?" Jackie said putting on her belt with the yellow flags hanging
"Facts, this is light work." Raven said replying putting on her belt also
"Jackie, you gonna be quarterback?" I asked as coach gave me the ball
"Yeah." She said taking the football as I gave it to her
I took that as a chance to put my belt on and look around the gym one more time. Chyna apparently showed up sitting on the bench, Kae was putting on her belt with a different colored flag then mine, and the boys were already in the middle of a game.
"Alright girls, get in formation. Red team is going first." The coach announced
"Hike!"
'''
The whistle blew and I threw myself on the floor, I must admit we destroyed the other team. I dropped like five touchdowns.
"Girls, please put your flags in the correct bag!"
"Oh my god Trinity you need to join the team!" Raven yelled pulling me from off of the floor
"Facts, like you broke that bitch Sara's ankles that last touchdown! Everyone saw it!" Jackie said jumping up and down
"Really?"
"Yeah, the boys game finished early and they were just sitting on the bleachers watching us smoke the other team. They were all cheering for you." Raven said as we all walked over to the bag where the belts go
After I put my flag in the bag I looked around to see Sara pissed off talking to Kae, the boys obnoxiously laughing and pointing at her. She was embarrassed, her face was red.
"I didn't mean to cross her like that, I was just really into the game." I said throwing my curly hair up in a sloppy, effortless bun
"We're having tryouts in a few weeks, hope to see you there!" Raven said running off to the locker room
Jackie disappeared a few minutes ago play fighting with some boy. I saw Chris, Chyna and Michael sitting on the bleachers so I made my way over there.
On my way there, coach stopped me "Good game today Trinity, I hope to see you at try outs soon." He held out his hand above his head purposely
"I'll think about it." I said jumping up to high five him
He laughed at my struggle since I only touched his wrist and walked away
"Hey guys." I said walking up to them
"Wassup, Tom Brady." Michael instantly said
I scrutinized him "How long was you saving that joke for?"
"As soon as I saw you embarrass the fuck outta Sara and her poor ankles." He said loudly laughing obnoxiously
He was literally howling and I couldn't help but laugh, I ignored him and waved at Chris and Chyna.
"Hey mamas." Chyna said
"I would hug you but I'm all sweaty." I said chuckling
"She's most definitely not gonna let this go." Chris spoke up looking behind me
We all looked behind me and saw Kae and Sarah talking while staring over in my direction. I sighed heavily and fixed my messy bun that was falling apart since I didn't secure it with any bobby pins. Great, another girl on my list.
"Hey Trin, Michael and I are going to this party tomorrow and we're planning on going to the mall right now, you coming?"
I thought about it, I've been here for almost three months and never have I went to any malls around here. All I do is go to school, and go right back home. But then again, I'm hot, sweaty and tired. I can go another time.
"I would love to, but I'm not in the mood right now." I said declining the offer
"It's alright maybe next time, bye." Chyna said smiling "Let's go babe." She said standing up from the bleachers with Michael's hands in hers
"Later guys." Michael said who was changed out of his gym clothes
I watched them exit out the gym. I looked back at Chris and saw he was already looking at me.
"So whats plans for today?" I asked him wiping the sweat off of my forehead
"Don't have any plans, might just head to the studio." He said standing up
"Oh ok..." I looked down at my feet not knowing what else to say "We're still tutoring tomorrow at my house right?"
"Yeah."
I looked back up and saw him looking down at me "Great... So I'll see you later?"
"Yup."
"Cool." I said walking away to the locker room

I Totally Don't Have Anger Problems!
Discontinued 7/11/2020 Sorry if anyone was hoping for more updates. It seems I'm losing interest in the character as time goes on - not sure if that's due to miscalculated character development direction or just a limited amount to express in the first place. If I do any writing projects in the future, I'll make sure the premise has a lot of room for long-term, interesting, development before posting anything. Thanks to everyone who gave feedback! I’m Talia Shimada, and my life just got a lot more complicated. One moment I was just doing some regular investigation of an interesting boy from my senior year in high school, and then suddenly, everything went wrong and I was stranded in another world in the middle of nowhere. It’s not my fault he left a clear line of sight to his house keys where they could be photographed and replicated on a 3D printer!

What, am I supposed to know which plants are edible in some far-away wilderness on another PLANET!? This is a planet right? It has to be! What did I do to deserve this? At least that class I got is useful. Now, when something doesn’t do what it’s supposed to, I can keep smashing it until it CAN’T BE A PROBLEM ANY MORE BECAUSE IT’S NOT ABLE TO DO ANYTHING AT ALL! If anyone else tries to get in the way of my plans, I’ll just PICK UP THEIR PUNY BODIES AND THROW THEM ASIDE and watch them sail away, never to trouble me again, because I am DONE having people mess with my life and not being able to do anything about it! From now on, anyone who tries will get to briefly realize their error as I SMASH THEM INTO PASTE BECAUSE THEY PICKED A FIGHT WITH THE WRONG WOMAN! I totally don’t have anger problems!
