"Late as always, miss Green"
My professor is riding my ass again. She is the type of woman that would find just a couple of people and pick on them, it's getting a bit old. I always arrive late to this class. Being early makes situations awkward when you have to tell people to bugger off because a seat is saved. I leave it up to my friends to save me a spot to sit.
"Is there a reason as to why you are not punctual, miss Green?"
"Professor, I think you don't care what answer is"
Her cheeks went flaming red at my retort. I never gave her a direct answer. In fact, I never really gave anyone a direct answer it was practice for if I ever became famous. Not that I think I will, its just nice to pretend and get away from reality.
"Take a seat"
Her curt tone is telling me shes annoyed. She usually said something else but I am assuming that she's getting just as bored of this game as I am.
I turn and hurriedly walk up the stairs. That woman needs a hobby and it shouldn't be busting my balls.
Gianna, Nella, and Romancia are the three best people in this class. They are the girls that I survive this terrible class with. They always save me a seat so it allows me to arrive late.
"Annet, get that sweet ass over here"
Gianna was not so quietly whispering and waving me over to a spot between her and Romancia. These cousins exist in a pretty weird situation. They have certain rules to live by and can't ever break them because of their family. They are only allowed to go to school until they're married, which I find stupid and old-fashioned. The only reason they were allowed to attend in the first place was that they have each other. Apparently, it's the woman's Job to take care of the household and family while the husband works. Their family doesn't think educated females are that important.
Romancia is actually a year older than Gianna, therefore, 2 years older than me. Romancia prefers it if no one uses her nickname which is Roma. She says its improper and we must use her full name at formal gatherings as well as school. She is a bit of a tight screw if im being honest. Her hair is always done up and she always had classy clothes on. Her sweet brown eyes were warm and inviting. Her skin was olive colored and she could tan like there was no tomorrow, fucking Italians. She has a larger nose and average lips. She isn't the prettiest person around but she has this important air about her. She walks with a lot of confidence and it's pretty neat to watch.
Gianna is a bit more outgoing. She is fun loving and as of last month not quite free. She has a fiance and is due to marry him in little less than a year. When she first brought it up to me she had broken down in tears. She wanted to have love but from what I understand its a beneficial marriage. She is supposed to marry this Italian man for a lot of reasons but I think money is the biggest one. Gianna is kind of getting used to the idea but I know she still cries over the fact that she can't fall in love. I asked her why she won't break it off but she said something about her family and blah blah blah. To these two girls family is everything and they won't go against them, even if it means sacrificing their own happiness.
She has these beautiful dark brown eyes that seem to light up when you ask her a question. Her hair is this sweet rich brown that always hangs in loose curls. She is a tiny bit taller than me with beautiful legs. Her skin is the exact same color as Roma's and she can tan as well. She and Roma have the same nose but Gia has bigger lips.
I walk towards my saved seat and sit down in a hurry.
"Gianna, do not speak in that manner"
Roma is spitting flames at her cousin and it's so funny to watch. Im guessing that Roma didn't like the "sweet ass" comment.
"Romancia, take that dick out of your ass its pushing shit up to where your personality should be"
Wow, that's a new one. Gianna is giving her cousin a sweet smile and just asking for a beating. these two fight all the time but they love each other. These two may be cousins but they were raised very close and act a lot like sisters.
"Gianna don't egg your cousin on, we will all get in trouble again if you keep on this"
Nella turns around to get a view of us. She is sitting a row ahead but knows that if those two get in trouble so do all of us. Professor Jane likes to kick us all out from time to time.
Nella was named after her dad Nelson Davis. He passed away before she was born. He had been a cop and died when he saved a woman in a robbery. A gun had been pointed at her and so he used himself as a human shield. He didn't know that Nellas mom had been pregnant at the time, maybe it would have made a difference, maybe not. Her mother raised three kids as a single mom. She never remarried because she always said "Just because my Husband has passed on doesn't mean he is any less my soulmate. I will wait for him like he's doing for me"
Nella is going through school to be a teacher which is great because she is amazingly kind. She is about 6 feet tall and has a lot of curves. I know she doesn't really see herself as beautiful but I find her to be breathtaking. She has these big Hazel eyes, medium sized nose, and big lips. She loves to wear this seductive color of red lipstick every which adds a pop. Her hair is long and braided so that it doesn't get out of control, the black velvety color of it is to die for. Her skin is a deep chocolate color and it looks stunning. She really is a plus-sized beauty queen.
"Nella turn back around and don't get involved, the Grinch will get us in trouble if you do. Gianna thanks for complimenting my ass and, nice comeback. Stop annoying Romancia. Romancia she is 20 years old for God's sake let her say ass when she wants to. You are not her mother don't chide her like one. Are we all good now?"
They all turn and look at the professor without saying a word. Looks like I still have that magic touch.
The rest of our class goes on great and the girls all seem to get along.
.....Everyone is having lunch
"Annet, Romancia and I have a small favor to ask you"
My stomach feels a little funny by hearing what Gianna said. She never asks for just a small favor its always something stupid. The last time I had to do a "small favor" she set me up on some stupid date with a then prospective fiance. It was the weirdest night of my life. The look on her face is telling me im not going to like this one either.
"Gianna I swear if its another date i'm/"
"It is not a date I promise, we just want you to come to a party that our family is throwing"
Romancia cuts me off and gives me a pleading look.
She is omitting something and I have no idea what it is.
"Girl, our little Annet is not that stupid. What aren't you girls saying."
Nella cut in. She is very protective over me. It may be because im the youngest but it makes me feel nice and cared about when she goes all mama bear.
"Wellllll our parents want to meet a friend and Nella would feel uncomfortable because she hates them. Please help us out, we need you."
Both Romancia and Gianna are looking at me with puppy dog eyes. I honestly wish I could say no to them but they always seem to get their way.
"I don't even have a dress"
Gianna lights up. She knew I was going to cave. That girl can be a real shit head.
"I can deliver like 20 up to your room by 3. there will be a car waiting for you at the main entrance at 6. Bye Nella, see you at the party Annet."
With that, the two cousins got up and left. They didn't even eat their salad.
"Girl, those two are not telling the whole truth"
Nella is right. What are they not saying?
