The Sahara Slumber

Chapter 1 About a month ago I graduated high school, I just had my birthday two days after I graduated. it's the first week of June and I woke up out of my sleep because I had to use the bathroom I looked at the clock on my phone, it's 5 a.m. I have a few more hours until I have to officially wake up. I have a flight to catch I'm going to Brooklyn, New York to stay for the summer with my cousin Keyshia. I haven't seen her in 3 years and some change. It's about to be lit when I touch down. We are supposed to visit Jay-Z's "Book of HOV" exhibit in Brooklyn's public library. After I finished using the bathroom I check my phone for text messages It's a few from Boo Daddy and my cousin saying she can't wait to see me and Boo Daddy said he was going to miss me. I replied to both of them telling my cousin I couldn't wait either and telling my favorite person that I have that effect on people. 5 minutes later when neither of them responded, I didn't expect them to either cause of what time it was so I went back to sleep.
