Back when I lived in Texas I got a job, I was so excited because I was going to have money again, in that moment I wasn't worried about making friends. Well, the next week I was called into orientation and there were only a few of us, but one girl in particular was a black girl. Me (being the spitfire I am) sparked up a conversation with her, after about 4 days of orientation she informed me that she had no car and her sister was bringing her to work and that she was going to need a ride back and fourth. I found that she lived fairly close to me and our hours were going to be the same, so when we started working I picked her up everyday and we became the best of friends. We talked about everything, we were inseparable, 3 years went by and I suppose we just drifted apart I had been moving around a lot, but  you know why we stayed so close being different skin tones? Because we saw each other as people, not a color chart. Now that this chaos has arose I still feel the need to say that with all this going on, we are all just people. We are all just people.
