chapter 2

Riani Nalani Brown | Riri

one week later.

Unlocking the door to my apartment as the fresh scent of a light lavender and warm vanilla scent hit my nostrils. I wanted the apartment scent to be more of a vanilla scent but then also wanted a little lavender scent so i decided to look for a scent of both and got lucky with this candle that smells heavenly of the two. i also use plug ins, room sprays, candles, and things like that to achieve the scent and i loveee it, but the candles do play a big part.

i had just got back from my nail appointment where I just got some cute Frenchie's with gems and a bow and my toes are just regular white french to match my nails. i also decided to do a little "prep with me for school" vlog so for later when my hair appointment comes ill also record that as well.

placing my things down i sit at the kitchen island as i eat my chipotle because boyy was i fucking starving.

"As y'all can see a bitch got her hair doneee. And the experience was great and I will see myself there again. here's the salons official Instagram page" I say into my camera holding my phone up that has the Instagram page on there as the camera is set up in front of me.

I had did a little cute natural cat eye lash set on me earlier while recording then I recorded me going to my hair appointment while also a little bit of the process of me getting it done. then earlier, earlier I did a nail vlog as well and now I am just recording while finishing up building my vanity.

It had arrived earlier but I am just now building it together but it's finish now so I am wrapping this vlog up since imma try to edit it all tonight or at least half then I'll finish editing the other half tomorrow if I get sleepy.

"But guys this is my vanity all set up. It is very pretty. On my next vlog my vanity will be decorated so yall can see that but overall I think my apartment decor is going very well so far. My room and bathroom is finished decorating but that's another video for another time. i just a few more things for my kitchen and living room, and the half bathroom is also finished decorating so very soon y'all will get a house tour. But anyways that is it for today I hope yall enjoy this vlog and I will see yall another day." I blow a kiss then end the video.

I clean up the mess of everything then take a shower for school tomorrow.

After five minutes I finally get up and brush my teeth and wash my face before walking out of my bathroom.

I turn my tv on playing my apple playlist list which the first song is Bryson Tiller.

Honestly, I'm not really nervous for the first day. I was about a week ago but now I'm just like whatever.

Walking in my closet I search for an outfit since I didn't pick one out the night before. Which is bad because I swear I'm always taking the longest to find an outfit.

I decide on a simple outfit. A black skims short sleeve top, some loose fitting black-grayish distressed jeans, and some black Christian Dior slides that imma match with the matching bag to put my things in.

Cute and simple.

Taking my bonnet and scarf off my hair is in a side part bone straight lace front so there wasn't much to do. I do my edges and straighten and hot comb it so it can look extra bone straight like how she had it yesterday. my shit is long as hell to like ayeee. lace melted in alllll.

I then do my skincare and start on my makeup. I just put some concealer under my eyes and a little bit around my face then start blending it in. I set my face using the powders and then after a few minutes, I brush it off and put some lipgloss on. My lashes are already done so I think I look really cute. Then I put my stud earrings in my ears, some necklaces, and pandora rings and bracelets.

Checking the time on my phone it was almost time to go so I grabbed my lip gloss and put it in my bag along with the rest of my school things. I spray myself with my vanilla perfumes and some vanilla body oil and throw the perfume in my bag as well.

Looking over myself in the mirror I take a picture then turn my tv off and walk into the kitchen to grab some snacks.

Parking in the parking lot of the university, it was hella people. Some are in the parking lot and a bunch just outside or walking inside.

I get out of my car. the university was really big as well. Very nice and clean though.

"Oh my gosh, heyy your so pretty and caught my attention" i hear a girls voice making me turn to see a pretty girl standing there.

"Hey and thank you" I said softly.

She was brown skin with pink glossed lips, her hair was in a cute side part deep wave wig and she looked nice she was also on the taller side as she stood at 5'8.

"Im kamryn by the way, are you a freshman, ive never seen you before." she says.

"Yes i am and my name is Riani."

"Im a sophomore, come on ill show you inside." she says.

"Damn, it's big in here." I look around.

"Yeah, it's cool," Kamryn says.

"Class isn't until another twenty minutes so we can just do whatever right now." Kam shrugs as she sits at a table and i follow behind her. It's a table and chairs set by a wall as many people pass by us.

We start talking some more until I see a good looking lightskin boy walking up to us. well theres one other boy he funny looking.

"Don't look." Kam immediately whispers.

"Nahh Kam. I told you run my runs when i see you didn't I?" The light skin one says making Kam roll her eyes.

"I don't see how I have anything to do with it." she turns towards him.

"Because YOUR the one who put me on with her." He glares.

"Yeah cause you were begging." she says in a duh tone.

"So?" He questions.

"What she do, Isaiah." She huffs looking fed up with him.

"What did she do? Oh, I'll tell you what her trifling, gummy smile ass did alright." he stands up straighter.

"Here he go about to tell this story for the 100th time." The other brown-skinned one shakes his head.

"You know what shut up." He turns to him while mugging before turning back to Kam but halfway he catches my eye.

"Wait woahh. Where did you come from." He grins at me making Kamryn shake her head.

"She have been here the whole damn time dumb ass."  She rolls her eyes.

"Shiii. Well, excuse me."

"Riani, this is Isaiah. the brownskin one is Vaugh and- wait where's my brother?" She then questions.

"Man fuck your big neck ass brother. How come I haven't seen you before." He sits in the chair in front of me then puts his elbows on the table resting his head in his hands making me smile at the childishness.

"Because it's my first day." i say back to him.

"I like your voice, and your smile- Isaiah stop flirting with my friends. And tell me where my brother at?" She cuts him off pushing him making him almost fall off the chair.

"Kamryn what the hell? Embarrassing me in front of my future wife" He mugs her and she mugs him back making me raise my eyebrow at what he said.

"He's probably somewhere with Aaliyah's dumb green ass or something." He shrugs.

Damn, he just coming for everybody.

Looking at the guy in front of me he was cute. had a taper fade cut, and looked around 6'1 with tattoos on his arms. "class about to start, let's go." Kamryn says standing up and so do i.

"I will hopefully see y'all...never. goodbye." She says to them making them flip her off.

"So how was your classes," Kamryn says as we're now in the cafeteria eating. During Kam's study hall, she decided to get us some chickfila which was really sweet of her then she skipped to our lunch.

"I mean they were cool. Pretty boring though." I shrug.

"Mine were boring too." Kam huffs.

"Mine was really fun. Lots of cute girls too." Isaiah smiled next to me making Kam side-eye him.

"Who even asked you." Vaugh raises his brow at him making Isaiah mug Vaugh.

"Stop dick riding." He mugs him.

"You see how I get treated? It's like this every day." He shakes his head next to me making me laugh.

"I'm sorry but where is y'all friend at because y'all sure aren't mines," Kam says.

"No really where is he? His fat neck ass always somewhere trying to be mysterious." Isaiah mugs.

"Nigga think he blues clues." Vaugh chuckles.

"Scooby Doo having ass." Isaiah continues making us crack the fuck up because whatttt.

"He was like in one of my classes than left. And that was earlier." Vaugh then says.

"He took me to school and was trying to get Aaliyah but I ain't want that girl not one breath away from me so he just took me and then went back to get Aaliyah and that was the last I saw of him," Kam says drinking out of her milkshake.

I also learned that I guess whatever friend I haven't seen yet is Isaiah and Vaughs best friend and is Kam's brother. And they're all juniors except for Kam who's a sophomore.
