know.”
    “You don’t know that Aaliyah.”
    “Yes, I do J.” “Why can’t you just trust me?”
    “Why can’t you just listen to the people that love you?”
    “Because you’re being paranoid.”
    “Well, maybe you should try it sometimes and stop being so reckless.”
    “Goodnight, Jason.” “I’m done talking.”
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Chapter 10
    The next morning Aaliyah got up and out of the house before the boys. She just didn’t feel like dealing with Jason so early in the morning. She text Ray to meet her at the campus café for breakfast. Of course, he happily obliged.
    “Hey beautiful,”
    “Hey.”
    “Everything ok.”
    “Yeah. Sort of.” “Jason and I got into a big fight last night.” Said Aaliyah
    “Let me guess, he’s upset I brought you home so late last night.”
    “You got it.”
    “Let me talk to him.” “I’ll smooth things over.”
    “No, not with Jason.” “It’ll just make things worse, trust me.” “It’s ok I got it.”
    “Ok, whatever you think is best.” Said Ray
    “Enough about my problems with my overbearing brother.” “What are your plans for today?”
    “Well, I have class this morning, and hopefully, I get to spend more time with my beautiful lady after.”
    “Oh really?”  “Do I know this beautiful lady?”
    “Look in the mirror and you’ll find her.”
    They both laughed.
    “Oh! So I’m your lady now?”
    “Yes, and you better not forget it.”
    “Come on, let’s get to class.” “Who do you have?” “I’ll meet you there after it’s over, and we’ll go to lunch.” Said Ray.
    “Professor Lawrence, Adams building, room 1304.”
    “Ok, cool, see you then
     
     
     
     
    Chapter 11
    “Good morning class.” Said Professor Lawrence.
    “Good morning.” The class responded in unison.
    “Today we’ll be discussing the class project.” “I’m going to put you all in groups of three.” “Everyone in the group will get the same grade, so you might want to make sure you hold each other accountable.” “Ok, First group, Aaliyah, Leslie, and Elliot.” “Second group, Ashely, Amanda, and Katelyn.” “Third group, Sarah, Bradly, and Brittney.” “Next will be Brandon, Asher, and Madeline, and last but not least, Gary, Samantha, and Andrew.” “The topic of your project will be, should social media presence be considered in college admittance selection?” “You must choose to be for or against and you must have supporting evidence as to why.” “You also have to come up with a list of pros and cons, and decide what the rules would be concerning this policy.” “Lastly, you must put together a presentation to explain your ideas to the class.” “You may use the rest of today’s class time to start discussing with your teams and come up with a game plan.” “Alright, get to it.”
    Everyone began moving into the respective groups chatting about ideas, and who was going to do what; when they were going to meet etc. After a while, the clock struck 11:50 and everyone began gathering their things to leave. As Aaliyah began to walk towards the door to wait for Ray, Professor Lawrence stopped her.
    “Umm Ms. Peirce, may I speak with you for a moment?” he said.
    “Well, actually I’m on my way…” Aaliyah began to say.
    “It’ll only take a moment.” He interrupted her.
    “Ok, sure.” Said Aaliyah
    “I saw you and I’m guessing your family Sunday at Golden Corral and, the other lady that was there looked so familiar to me.” “Was that your mom?”
    “Yes, sir.”
    “Oh ok, What’s her name?” “I know this is probably weird but, it’s just been bugging me because I think I know her from somewhere.”
    “Oh, it’s fine; her name is Lisa Davis; used to be Anderson if that helps.” “Do you know her?”
    “No, no, I guess not.” “Maybe she has a twin out here.”
    Professor Lawrence laughed.
    “Oh, ok,” Aaliyah said
    At that moment, Ray peeked in the door.
    “You ready Lele?”
