Getting to Know Me Chapter 1

 

Hi my name is Angel I’m 22 years old and from New York. Fun fact about me, I was born a twin but I won’t die one. That sounds a lot creepier than I meant honestly. I have problems like everyone in the world. I just handle mine different from any of you. I’m very independent and highly intelligent. However that doesn’t stop me from making stupid decisions.

 

Unlike other households I didn’t have a gang of kids’ old lady in the shoe problem, where babies are watching babies; however like most my mother was a single parent living in Spanish Harlem. We weren’t poor or anything but it took my mother’s many hustles to get us by every year. Some of the things she did weren’t pretty, and fucked her up more than it helped. Like that job she had at the factory, working hard 15 years blows her back out she was working so hard and you think she even got a gratitude check. Nope they let her go because she was now useless in their eyes. At least I was graduating from prep and getting into NYU showed where her hard work was paying off. See although my story starts out typical, I’m determining to be anything but.

Tonight was Spanish Harlem’s Puerto Rican festival and a group of my friends were meeting up to go out for a drink. They would have to wait up for me as usual. As always I was too busy dolling myself up. They knew this so I expected them not to be mad. Yet as always as soon as I arrived Maria was on 100!

 

 

Eyes were rolling, gum popping, and one finger twisting in the air.

 

Where have you been?! I called you an hour ago; you told me you were like 5 minutes away! My ass!

Clam down I’m here now right?!
