"mhm." i mumbled

"so like i was explaining, a select group of students from every senior class will be picked and moved to the building across the street for the rest of this semester, as you know it ends in about 3 weeks, over there you will get a chance to earn college credits, and any credit you need to , to graduate. now the names are , already picked and you will be picked up in about 20 mins." she said

"Jaylen, Kristin, Rashaad, Tyron and Namiah, you 5 are the chosen ones please pack your things." she said

"Hello Everyone My Name is Mrs. Tejda, one of the school counselors, if you did not know. There is 20 of you in here, all seniors, all promising students, i hand picked you all because i believe in you a little more than the others , don't tell 'em i said that" she joked

a few chuckles let out around the room.

i started looking around.. 1.. 2.. 3 .... and 4.
interesting, the whole bus crew is here.

"You all will get in a circle and tell your name and age.. now" she smiled " I'll go first"

"My Name is Mrs.Tejda i am 46 years old"

"damn.." one of the guys from the bus crew said

"Ok you next." she cleared her throat.

"My apologies miss." he said

"all good just go ahead."

"My name is Cane, I'm 19" he said

"pick some one else." she said and he pointed over to Deja.. the gay girl.

"I'm Deja, i'm 18." she said pointing to her sister

"I'm Rayna, also 18." Rayna pointed to me

"i'm Miah, i'm 19" i pointed to the last of the bus crew and he gave me a slight mug,

"ain't scaring nobody , you already ugly, stop mugging and answer the question." i said

"fuck outta here. i'm sexy as fuck and you know it."

out the corner of my eye i saw the counselor smile

"Ok, So i know you all are wondering what this is, now that we're all acquainted, this is a test Program , we will meet here , every morning on school days, maybe on weekends, and we're going to create a mural for the school and class of 2023. You will automatically pass all your classes and earn credits if you get here, everyday and on time." she said "there's a reason i picked you guys. don't prove me wrong." she said

i looked around one more time and nodded. this gone be easy, but it's not a very diverse group and some of them look like they not even interested in college

"Hang out for the rest of the school day in here, if you gotta use the bathroom just do so, we start on Monday." she walked out

"Yo Miah i heard you selling" Some dude named Mir said to me

i felt all eyes move on me

"where you hear that?" i asked putting my phone down

"the school." he said

"oh." i nodded

"it's true?" he asked

"naw, why?" i mugged, i didn't like him, he just didn't give me the right vibe

"i was tryna cop" he laughed

"aw my bad, wrong miah" i shrugged

"damn that's crazy" he said

i nodded going back to my phone..

"you not selling for fake or for real" Deja moved a chair next to me with her sister Rayna following.

"dumb bitch" i tried to snatch it back, but he moved away and he was taller by at least a foot.

he smirked looking down at me..

"come here" he sat down on a desk

umm... he kinda fine and that just made me nervous.

i walked towards him leaving space between us, he grabbed me by my waist and pulled me closer.

i let out a little gasp and he started laughing.

he took a long hit and tapped my cheek, i stood on my tippy toes and he opened his mouth and i took the smoke from it.. i inhaled it and blew it out
