"Cuz Ima ride, I'm with you still the night is young...."
2 days later...

As soon as I walk into school, I can sense something was off.
"Uh, am I the only one that felt that vibe change?" Roman asks beside me as we shuffle through the hallways of the school.
"Yea, I felt it..." I say, looking around. Nothing seemed out of place to me. It seems like regular old Panorama High School.
I walk to my locker and twist the combination lock on it. As I do, my phone dings in my hands, signaling a text.
I look at the message and see it's from Robyn.
Robyn 😇👅🌊: Call me. I wanna hear ya voice.
I shake my head, smiling, and do as she says.
She answers on the first ring,"aye, baybeh gal."
I can feel my body reacting to her accent as it always does. I shake my head and ignore the sensation that ignited in me.
"Hey, wassup? Are you feeling better?" I ask, searching for my chemistry book.
"Nah, but it'll 'appen soon," she says, a dry chuckle coming from her.
I smile, finding my book and tucking it under my arm,"do you not know how to pronounce your h's?"
"Wha' ya mean?" She asks.
"Say hey," I order, closing my locker.
"Aye," she replies.
"H-ey. Push you breath out, like you huffing," I instruct, making my way through the hallways once again.
"Huh-aye," she says, struggling.
I burst out laughing at her struggles. She makes the simplest things cute.
"Tha's nah funny," she says, a pout evident in her voice.
"Yes it- tr-try it again," I say, smiling.
"No, I call to tell ya some important, but ya makin' fun of meh."
"Awe, did I huwt the babwy fwewwings?" I ask in a baby voice, walking into my chemistry class.
"Shut up, Nika," Robyn grumbles.
"Okay, I'm done. What'd you want to say?" I ask, sitting in my seat towards the back of the room.
"Ya gon' come when ya finish school?"
"After dance practice, yea. What you need?" I ask, checking the time. 3 minutes until the bell rings...
"Can ya bring meh suh real food?"
"This one time. But you can't make it a habit, because all you doing is laying down in that bed. And if I keep bringing you food, you gone sit there and get fat."
"Meh? Fat? Psh. I still pull gals though if I do," Robyn comments, laughing.
I watch as the teacher walks into the room, a smile on her face as always.
"Hey, I gotta go. I'll call you later," I tell Robyn.
"Okay, mama. Make sure ya bring food."
"Alright. Bye," I say, ending the call
