Thanks for your time and patience and thanks for your comments.

"Aye… Latoya… sleepy head…" Anthony said, gently shoving his half sister back and forth. "Toy… rise and shine…" he said, getting a little bit impatient. Anthony soon then kissed his teeth, "Latoya, get up."

"Mmmurph… five more minutes…" Latoya groaned as she turned to the other side of her bed.

"That's what you said… five minutes ago." Anthony said. "Pa and Ma sent me to your room to wake up. So wake up! Latoya I have to get ready for schoo'!" He complained.

Latoya groaned even louder from the word 'school' and pulled the covers over her head. "I hate school…" she mumbled. "When you're dressed for school… then you can wake me up," she said under the covers.

Anthony gritted his teeth, irritated with Latoya's behavior. "Mom! Dad! Latoya isn't getting up!" He yelled.

There was no response.

"Oh Damnit," Anthony cursed under his breath. He looked out the door and remembered Sampson, the dog; this made him smirk, evilly. The young teenager chuckled as he put his two fingers in his mouth. This caused Anthony to whistle very loudly.

It didn't take long but there was a thumping noise that was coming from downstairs that seemed to be getting louder and louder by the second. Suddenly the dog came into the room panting about.

Anthony smirked from the sight of the dog, "come here boy," he encouraged. Sampson ran up to Anthony as he tried to stand up. "Good boy!" Anthony continued to encourage. "Now," he started as he pointed at Latoya who was still trying to sleep. "Sick 'em boy!" He commanded.

Sampson soon looked at the bed and then pounced on it. The dog soon then removed the covers that Latoya was under and started licking the girl's face.

"Ah! Ew! Sampson! Get off me!" Latoya exclaimed as she tried to stop the dog from licking her face. "Anthony! Help! Get him off! Please!" She begged, still trying to get Sampson off.

Anthony, who was laughing, commanded the dog to come to him. The dog hopped off the bed and walked to Anthony panting heavily. "That's a good boy!" He praised, ruffling the dog's head.

Soon, Kyndra peeped her head in Latoya's bedroom, wondering what the commotion was all about. "What is all the commotion?" Kyndra asked.

"Hey ma," Anthony said, still petting the German shepherd. "Latoya is awake."

"Yeah… I'm wide awake, no thanks to Sampson's morning shower." Latoya said in a sarcastic manner as she wiped off the remains of Sampson's drool from her face. "…yuk!"

"Heh, my work here is done, I'm going to go and get ready for school." Anthony said. "Let's go Sampson." He said as he and the dog walked out of the room.

Kyndra smiled as she shook her head and watched her step son walk out of the room. "Thanks again Anthony," she said.

"Anytime!" Anthony called out.

Kyndra turned and faced her daughter who was still wiping off the drool from her chin. She smiled at her daughter as she walked up to her daughter's bed. "Come on Latoya, come out of that bed and start getting ready for school." Kyndra said.

"Great school," Latoya said sarcastically as she forced herself out of bed and wiped her eyes.

"I love the enthusiasm you have for your first day of school." Kyndra replied. "Hurry on up and brush your teeth shower and show me what you're going to wear for school." She said as she headed out the door. "I'll be downstairs. And don't take to long in the shower; you don't want to be late on your first day in Edgar Hoover Elementary. "

Latoya rolled her eyes and plopped back onto her bed and groaned loudly, like a hungry bear.

"Get a move on!" Kyndra yelled from the hallway.

"Yeah, yeah," Latoya said as she got up and off her bed and dragged her feet across the floor all the way to the bathroom to brush her teeth and to take her shower.

Once she had finished her shower, she went to her room, into her closet and grabbed the first pair of pants and shirts and sweaters she saw, put them on and headed down the stairs. As she was walking down the stairs, she had noticed that the house was very quiet. Latoya finally reached the kitchen to see that it was just her mom who was drinking her coffee and reading the news paper and her little brother Jerone who was drinking from his sippy cup as the dog was eating from his bowl.

"Where is everybody?" Latoya asked.

Kyndra looked up from the news paper and saw what Latoya was wearing. Kyndra was appalled as she put down her mug.

"I think the better question is, what are you wearing? You're not going to school like that." Kyndra said staring at her daughter in distraught.

Latoya looked down at her clothes and then looked back at her mother. "What's wrong with what I'm wearing?" She asked.

"Latoya, baby, you're not going to wear baggy, torn, old pants with a large-extra large baggy sweater. The kids at school will think that you came from a broke down home." Kyndra said.

"Who cares? I'm not searching for anyone's approval. The kids are probably white, rich snobs. I don't care what people think of me."

"I care, and I told you before not to talk like that. I'm not going to allow my daughter to go to school, on her first day, dressed like that." Kyndra said as she got up from where she sat and picked up Jerone. "Come on, let's go."

"But Ma, I don't have any other clothes." Latoya protested.

"Come on, I know you have a lot of clothes in your closet. I know we just moved, but recall unloading a lot of clothes that belong to you. So let's go and get you out of those rags." Kyndra said.

"But aren't I going to be late for school?" Latoya asked.

"We've got time."

-----

BLEEP, BLEEP, BEEP… BLEEP, BLEEP, BEEP… BLEEP, BLEEP, BEEP… BLEEP, BLEEP, BEEP… BLEEP, BLEEP, BEEP!

Huey groaned loudly from the sound of his alarm clock along with his younger brother Riley. Huey slammed his hand on the alarm clock to stop the ringing noise. He then got out his bed and walked to his brother's bed to try and wake him up.

"C'mon man, wake up… you gotta get ready for school," Huey said, still half asleep, shoving his brother back and forth, trying to wake him up.

"Mmm… aye… leave me be! I want to sleep!" Riley groaned.

"Don't make me bring Granddad." Huey warned. "Seriously man... get yo ass outta bed."

Riley kissed his teeth as he turned the other way.

Huey gave out and irritated groan as he folded his arms. "Normally, I would beat yo ass outta bed but, I ain't got time for you," he said as he walked out the door. "Granddad, Riley ain't getting up!"

"Then force him outta bed!" Granddad yelled back from downstairs.

"I tried, but he ain't moving," Huey yelled back.

"Ugh! Damn kids!" Granddad cursed from downstairs. "Where is my belt? Always got to do everything around! Damn!" He continued cursing.

Both Huey and Riley heard Granddad coming up the stairs, grumbling like there was no tomorrow. The thumping noise that Granddad made as he was coming up the stairs grew louder and louder which made Riley's eye widen. He soon began to feel nervous as Huey left the room without a room.

As Huey walked down the corridor he went passed his grandfather who was wearing nothing but a towel that was wrapped around his waist. Huey didn't even want to know what his grandfather was up to as he continued to walk down the hall to the bathroom.

"Granddad, you don't gotta wake me! I-I'm already up! I'm already up!" Huey heard Riley say.

"Too late!" Huey heard Granddad say. "You made me stop my morning workout! So get ready for some ass whoopin! Come here!"

"Wait Granddad!" Riley begged.

And before Huey knew it, he could already hear his brother getting walloped by his grandfather, but Huey didn't care as he blocked out the sounds of his brother getting whipped by Granddad's belt. He already had enough issues to worry about-Jazmine. She was still mad with Huey after the whole caviar incident last night at Sir Ed Wuncler's mansion.

After Huey finished brushing his teeth, taking a shower and getting dressed in his baggy jeans and his long sleeved black shirt that was airbrushed with a black and gray fist printed in bold letters 'BLACK POWER,' he walked downstairs for breakfast.

While Huey was eating his Branflakes cereal for breakfast and reading the morning paper, he had noticed Riley stomping down the stairs wearing his black sweatpants along with his long-sleeved white shirt which was overlapped with his green jersey that printed number '27,' making his way to the kitchen.

"Granddad managed to get you out of bed." Huey stated.

"Aye, you shut up punk!" Riley barked as he opened the cupboard to grab a bowl.

"It was for your own good Riley. I don't want to miss the bus and end up late for school." Huey said still reading the news paper.

"Tch, who cares? After finding out that that trick Latisha was going the same school as us… shoot… I don't even wanna think about that…" Riley said grabbing the cereal box.

As Riley grabbed the cereal box, Huey noticed a swollen area on Riley's right hand and even teeth marks that seemed to be fading. "Riley, what happened to your hand? It's all swollen and bruised."

Riley stopped pouring the cereal into his bowl ad looked at his swollen bruised hand. "Oh right… that hoe, Latrisha-,"

"Latoya,"

"Bit me last night, she's such a dog, seriously, damn."

"When did she bite you and why?"

"Nigga are you deaf? I said she bit me last night at Ed's house when he was about to meet the girl's older fine sista." Riley explained. "She only bit me because I covered her mouth to stop her from screaming."

"Why was she screaming?"

"Whats with the twenty-one questions? I can't breathe with all your questions nigga!" Riley complained.

"Quiet boy! Don't make me come down there!" Granddad yelled from upstairs.

Huey gave Riley a look.

Riley relented with a sigh, "tch, I don't know, she freaked out when she saw Ed's gun." He responded as got up from where he sat to get milk from the fridge.

Huey wanted to ask more questions, but decided not to. He didn't want to get his brother in a worse mood than he already was so he decided to let him be. So Huey continued to eat his morning beverage as he was reading the daily news.

"Still… that's a hell of a bite," Huey commented.

"Nigga what?"

"You can still see the teeth marks."

"That's what I'm saying!" Riley exclaimed. "I'm could've sworn it was bleeding out a river after she bit me!" He exaggerated brining a carton of milk to the table and pouring the milk into the bowl of cereal. "And to think, that hoe is go n' be in the same class as me! I'm going to have a hoe for a classmate!"

"Riley, you're overreacting." Huey said as he ate another spoonful of cereal with his eyes still glued to the newspaper. "There is a slim chance that she may or may not be in your class, so relax!" He said, finishing up his cereal.

Riley pulled a face, "whatever nigga, I might have to wear gloves." He said munching down his cereal.

Huey looked up from the news paper and gave his brother a confused glance as he raised an eyebrow. "Now why the hell would you want to wear gloves?"

"In case that…dog bites me again! She might be carrying some rabies or something; I don't know where her mouth has been." Riley replied.

Huey just shook his head, "whatever," he said, beginning to fold up the news paper and finished up the rest of his cereal. Once he was done with his cereal, he had got up from where he sat, rinsed his bowl and put it in the dishwasher. "Just finish your finish breakfast; I don't wanna be late for school."

"I can't believe you were planning to go to school dressed like a, a… hobo," Kyndra said opening Latoya's closet, to check out Latoya's clothes."

Latoya, who was sitting on her bed watching her little brother Jerone play his video game on his Gameboy, rolled her eyes. "And I can't believe that I'm going to the same school as Riley Freeman," she said scratching behind the ears of Sampson that was lying down on Latoya's bed next to her. "You couldn't have put me in a boarding school? Not even a Catholic school…" she said plopping back on her bed.

"Well I didn't know what you were on bad turfs with that boy, even though you just met him." Kyndra responded as she brought out a sunflower dress from the closet.

The young girl grimaced from the sight of the dress, "I'm not wearing that,"

"Baby, don't you want to look nice for your first day?" Kyndra asked.

"I'd rather stay at home or got to work with you or papa or go to my brother's or sister's schools. Anywhere but mine," Latoya responded.

Kyndra scoffed. "Even if you had that option, you wouldn't leave the house dressed like that." She said putting away the dress. "I'll never seem to understand you, Toy," she said with a sigh.

"And I'll never understand the fact to why I'm here, even though heard it so many times; 'we did it to make you happy, blah, blah, blah…'" Latoya said. "It's already been two days, since we've moved to Woodcrest and I've already made and enemy."

Kyndra couldn't help but chuckle softly to herself at what her daughter said as she brought out a whole bunch of clothes and laid them out on Latoya's pillow.

Latoya pulled a confused face as she got off her bed and sat on her desk chair so their was more room on the bed for her mother to spread out the clothes.

"What's so funny?" Latoya asked still confused.

"Oh Latoya Renée Johnson, the things you say. How can that young boy already be your enemy?" Kyndra asked, laying out the shirts and pants on Latoya's bed.

"You don't understand ma."

"Oh, on the contrary, I do understand," Kyndra said waving her finger. "Yesterday's performance said it all."

Confused Latoya thought back to what her mother was talking about and then remembered Sir Ed Wuncler's dinner party which had occurred last night. The same night when Ed the III met Tenisha, the same night when herself and Riley got into another fight, the same night when Jazmine ate caviar a.k.a fish eggs and ended up getting mad at Huey and the same night when she and Riley both found out that they were going to go to the same school and might even be in the same class.

Latoya frowned.

"I find it funny that you would use such a strong word, 'enemy.'" Kyndra said turning to her daughter flashing her chestnut eyes.

"Well I can't say acquaintance, mama; we can't stand each other."

"Look, I understand that the two of you don't like each other but, you should at least try to make amends with each other now, before your little… feud gets out of hand." Kyndra advised, "Now come here and look at the shirts and pants I picked out for you."

Latoya sighed heavily and walked up to her bed to look at the clothes. "This is stupid ma, aren't I going to be late for school? And I swear you have work and Jerone's preschool."

"We've got a lot of time," Kyndra started. "On Monday, work sometimes starts later in the morning. I'm driving both you and Jerone to school which means, we've got time." She explained, "Now pick," she ordered.

The young girl grimaced from the frilly clothes that her mother picked out for her. They were all mostly dresses. "Ma, I'm not going to wear a dress or a skirt," Latoya told her mother. "Infact, I'm not going to wear anything so, frilly like to school. So that's a definite no dresses. We agreed that I would dress 'nicely' to church, picture day or on special occasion."

"This is a special occasion; first day which means impressions," Kyndra said.

Latoya just blinked and stared at her mother.

Kyndra sighed, "Please wear at least this red shirt with the small flower on the right top with these nice black capris. It's more of your kind of style…"

Latoya looked at the red shirt and the black capris and gave out a weak smile. "Okay, but only if I can wear the matching headband and my black air force ones."

"Done, and you also need to wear small earrings and a necklace to go."

"Fine," Latoya said with a sigh.

With that, Latoya finally got out of the rags she was in and was dressed appropriately the way her mother liked it. They then let the dog out the backyard for it to get some exercise and then got themselves into the mercedes and off they went.

Kyndra admired to the clothes she picked out for her daughter.

"You actually look like a girl," Kyndra said, "we're gonna drop off Jerone first to his pre-school/daycare, okay?"

Latoya wasn't really paying much attention to what her mother was saying. She was still to busy thinking about her new school and the new people she was going to meet, was she really going to be in the same class as Riley? Was she going to make new friends or new enemies? All these thoughts kept wrapping around her head.

"All I know is… it's going to be one hell of a school year for me…"

----

Huey and Riley were waiting at the bus stop for their school bus to arrive- obviously. Around this time, Jazmine would usually meet up with Huey and Riley and greet them. But this time, Jazmine wasn't there she didn't meet up with the Freeman brothers. This slightly bothered Huey.

"Aye yo Huey," Riley started, "where's yo girlfriend at?"

Huey sighed irritably as he folded his arms, "she's not my girlfriend, and I don't know where she is…" He responded, rudely. "She's going though extreme lengths to avoid me…" he added silently, "damn…"

"Whatever nigga," Riley said he stuffed his hands into his pockets. "As long as that other girl ain't riding with us, I'm totally cool with it."

The school bus had finally arrived and there was still no sign of Jazmine. Where was she? Was Jazmine truly going through extreme lengths to avoid Huey because of last nights incident? However, the bus door had opened and Riley and Huey got onto the bus.

The yellow school bus that the Freeman boys were on, was almost nearly packed with the kids (majority of them were white of course), who attended to the same school as them. As both Huey and Riley continued to walk to the back they began to recognize some familiar faces.

Familiar faces like Huey's best friend and classmate Michael Caesar a.k.a Caesar, a young dreadlock aspiring MC from Brooklyn, New York who is pretty funny character. Caesar usually agrees with many of Huey's criticisms and usually makes jokes about issues that occur. Another one of Huey's friends that him and Riley recognized was Hiro Otomo, a young Asian – American DJ. Some kids from Riley's class was also spotted out who seemed to like food a lot. The slightly chubby red head, freckle faced, Charlie Huffdale and other kids. Next was Cindy McPhearson a Caucasian girl, Huey's classmate who seems to be very fond of the black folk and does what ever she can to be just like them. From listening to rap music and trying to talk 'street'; she's very clueless about racial issues that occur. And right to Huey's surprise, the person who sat ext to Cindy was-,

"Jazmine?" Huey asked still shocked as Riley continued to walk to the back of the bus to sit by himself.

Jazmine had looked up blankly at Huey and continued to look out the window.

"Hey Huey! What up my brotha?" Cindy greeted.

"Hey Huey," Caesar and Hiro said in unison.

Huey didn't actually pay attention to his friends or Cindy at all. In fact, their voices were blocked out from Huey's mind. Huey was still in shock to see Jazmine there. How did she get on the bus before him?

"Jazmine," Huey began, "what-,"

"Cindy," Jazmine's voice was stern when she cut Huey off. "Tell Huey that I'm not speaking to him." Her arms were crossed and she was staring out the window.

"Oooh… dat's cold…" Riley said from the very back of the bus while playing his video game.

"Jazmine is not talking to you." Cindy said. "Ya did bro?" she added as she added with a fake 'ghetto' accent. Sometimes Cindy tries too hard to act black- too hard.

In defeat, Huey rolled his sighed at Cindy, still unimpressed to try and sound ghetto and act ghetto. He just continued to walk to the back of the bus to sit next his good friend, Caesar.

Caesar watched his friend Huey sit beside him along with Hiro who sat right next to Riley, behind Caesar.

"Is everything alright man?" Caesar asked out of curiosity.

"Not really," Huey responded irritably. He then folded his arms and turned to Caesar. "Jazmine is mad at me."

"Yeah, I kinda figured that there was some sort of…" Caesar trailed off, trying to come up with a word to describe the situation.

"Weird vibe," Hiro finished, hearing on the conversation.

Riley wasn't paying any attention to what Huey and his friends were talking about. Riley was to busy playing video games on his own PSP.

"Yeah… a weird vibe," Caesar said. "You felt it too, Hiro?" He asked Hiro.

"Definitely," Hiro responded.

"So what did you do that got Jazmine so upset? I mean she went on the bus with Cindy and you and Cindy don't exactly live on the same street, at least not anymore…"

"Let's just say she's a picky eater and leave it at that…" Huey said.

Caesar and Hiro both exchanged confused glances.

"Don't ask any more questions at the moment, I don't want to talk about it." Huey responded massaging his temples.

Caesar and Hiro both exchanged one last confused glance before Hiro sat back down on his seat. The Asian- American was about to put his headphones on and listen to his music until he head realized something about Riley who sat across from him.

"Um… Riley… any particular reason why you are wearing gloves? It's not even cold out." Hiro said.

Riley stopped playing his video game as he looked up at Hiro and then looked at his gloves that he was wearing. "Oh… the gloves," Riley said, "some hoe bit me over the weekend."

Hiro raised an eyebrow, "Who?"

"A hoe! Damn nigga are you deaf?" Riley barked.

"Huey, any idea to who Riley is talking about?" Hiro asked Huey.

"He's talking about our new neighbor." Huey responded.

"You got a new neighbor? Since when?" Caesar asked.

"Her name is Latoya. She and her family moved in over the weekend. Riley and her aren't exactly the best of friends. Infact they're the exact opposite."

"Sound's like a black name," Caesar stated.

"She is and she's Riley's age. You'll see her at school." Huey replied.

The bus ride continued for a few more minutes until finally, they made it to Edgar Hoover Elementary School, all the kids who were on the bus, got off the bus one by one. Jazmine and Cindy were one of the first kids to get out of the bus and continued to walk into the school not waiting for Huey and the others.

That slightly bothered Huey but he chose to ignore it as him and the boys got off the school bus and continued to make their way to their school. Once they got into the school, it was the same old routine, trying to get through the small crowd of elementary students to reach their lockers. Finally, they reached their lockers. As they unpacked their items, Caesar had noticed someone.

"Yo Huey, is that the new girl that you and your brother were talking about?" Caesar asked, "'Cause, well she seems beautiful and all but she looks kina old to be going to our school…" he joked.

Huey, Riley and Hiro all stopped what they were doing and all turned to see who Caesar was talking about. Who they saw was a young African American woman with her hair all tied up in a bun with a younger version of herself tagging along behind her. The younger version of the older woman didn't seem to look at all very happy.

Huey then sensed a small twinge of anger from his brother, Riley but then chose to ignore him as he turned to his best friend, Caesar. "The woman you just saw was Latoya's-,"

"That's the hoes mama," Riley growled.

"Uh… yeah…" Huey said as he paused; the school bell had rung. "And the black girl walking behind the woman, her mother is, Latoya Johnson, the new girl."
