NYC PREP
Prologue
Sometimes I wake up, and I wonder…. What would my life be like if my dad was still alive. And then I remember, I would still be in Brooklyn, living in the projects. My brother would still be at home, trying to pursue his art career. My mom would be working the late-night shift at the local Laundromat. And my father, he would be working at the Brownstone paper mill. What a life huh? And every morning I wake up, and think, how did I get here? To this nice townhouse in the upper- east side of Manhattan. I wake up in satin sheets, I have my own personal maid, and driver, and of course all the clothes you can ever imagine. I'm not trying to brag, honestly, I think that's tacky, only people who pretend to be well off brag. But I want you to understand what a huge change I had to go through. Who am I? I'm Kaylee Johnston. Formerly Kaylee Williams. After my mom remarried she changed all of our last names…except for my brother. Well this morning is the start of a different change in my life. Are you ready to see what its like to live in the city?
