It's Me!!!

Oct 25th

"Hey guys! It's me! Kali! Thank you so much for checking out my channel! Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share your thoughts in the comments below! I love reading them! Until next time!" She blew two kisses towards the camera as her goodbye to the viewers. As soon as she saw the green check mark, Kalana quickly released a large sigh as her broadcast finished uploading.

She turned off the blinding ring light and whipped her long brown curls and wrapped them up tightly in a bun. She tore the fake lashes off and began to wipe the smokey red shadow from around her eyes. Taking another remover pad, she began to contort her face, as she erased the contour around her cheeks, nose, and neckline. Her naturally pink tinted lips were all that remained of Kali.

She had successfully removed her online persona and transformed back into Kalana Petillo, a twenty-one year old student at a private academy in San Francisco, where she studied digital marketing and graphic design. As Kalana, she was able to cruise her campus without ever knowing that she was also a huge influencer on multiple social media sites.

Kalana tore off the layers of clothes and threw them to the floor and grabbed her old high school gray sweat pants that read 'SPARTANS' down the side of right leg and her boyfriend's Timberwolves high school sweater. Throwing herself on the bed, she wrinkled the neck of the sweater to her nose and took a deep breath in, as if she could still smell his scent. She grabbed her phone and began to scroll through and respond to her followers that shared their love and thoughts. She knew to avoid the trolls in the feed, but she still got angry when she would come across hate messages. She took that anger out by gnawing on the salt water taffy that she got from the pier. The cold San Francisco fog had practically hardened the candy like a rock. As she finished, tossing her phone to the side, she debated brushing her teeth again.

Her phone began to ring, ending her internal debate. It was her high school sweetheart, Andy.

"Hey Babe!" she squealed, but got no response. She could only hear the music and a bunch of different voices. "Heeeellllllooo!!" she yelled, as if her screams could break through the sound of the music and chatter.

She hung up the phone, "Great another butt dial!"

She quickly began to text him back.

'I'm going to bed, so don't you dare wake me up when you come home!'

She followed her message up with 3 angry face emojis and went to sleep.
