What Are You? Abesadarius: Nonfiction

Written by Kaylee Jade Warfield



Are you mixed? Or are you just...


Black?


You’ve got that ethnic-mixed hair that everyone obsesses over now‌


Can I touch it?


Woah…it feels so


Different -


I mean that in an intriguing way… You know,


Everybody


says you have “good” black people hair because when you...



Flat iron it, it doesn’t get


Greasy like a regular black girl… I’m curious,




How often do you wash your hair? Wait— I just remembered! Are you...


Into white guys, or



Just black guys?


I wanted to ask because I’ve always been engrossed with how it feels to



Kiss a black guy, since their


Lips are so big and all…


I guess I’m just enticed by the idea because


My parents would...Â



Never


actually let me date..


One… So, do




People always ask the



Question...


what Race you are? I mean, I can tell you’re mixed with...




Something, but it’s just not that



Transparent what you are. Oh—I meant that in a good way! You really do have such a



Unique look! It must be a lot of fun, right? To have such a


Variety of looks you can pull off. I mean, I wish I could do something like that




With all my boring hair‌ This is random, but have you ever heard of an



Xenogenesis child? Actually, never mind.



You wouldn’t fit that category… But seriously, it must be thrilling to be so exotic! You’re like a


Zebra, almost. I’m just really stuck on the rarity in being what you are, you know?
