I missed practice, because Jaun had fallen to sleep and i knew he wasn't waking up any time soon, chico could sleep. I honestly love my son, but i couldnt full time raise him i literally dont have the material, i would love to keep him all the time . I laid him on the couch i usually slept on cos i dont even own a bed. I laid on the floor infront of him and fell asleep.

"Papá?"

"Papá?"

I groaned. "Que?"

"Papá Tengo que ir al baño." Jaun said. ( i have to go to the bathroom). I groaned again gettin up grabbing his hand and taking him to the bathroom.

"Que hora es? Su mamá tenía que estado aquí (what time is it your mama was suposed to been here)" I wondered as he did his business and washed his hands.

"Papá teñgo hambre" ( dad im hungry) Jaun said. And i sighed i didnt bother with looking in my fridge because i know its empty this apartment lack food so much that roaches don't even wanna live here. I checked the time on the stove, 9pm? Emily was suposed to have been here. I sighed and took a few dollars out of my rent money and put Jaun on his vans and his varsity jacket. I pulled on my beat up worn out jays i got from the thrift shop.(A/N hey macklemore can we go thrift shopping?lmao anywaays back to work)

After locking up i took Jaun to Mccdonalds why? Because its cheap,and delicious at times. I didnt get anything, just a dollar fry and a mcChicken. Im so broke i can barely afford a happy meal for my kid.

"Daddy!" I groaned.

"What is it that you want pumpkin?"

"Why cant we live some where other than the berbs? Why cant we live somewhere more.... Diverse? More than one race? Don't get me wrong i love white people..... But im black, shouldn't i be able to know what it feels like to be black?"

"Tiara, a person is a person, im getting the idea that you wan't to live with....ghetto- hood trash. A white person can be "black" too if thats how you want to put it. Skin aint nothing but a thang, There are several other black people who are as wealthy and educated like your mom and me, you want to be "hood" but trust me sweetie, the ghetto aint like what you see in movies, its worse."

"But daddy -"

"No but's young lady, i barely made it from those sides of town, i made it out from those sides so you wouldn't have to see the struggle."

"Well can i at least transfer to Western?"

"Why Western?"

"They have a great cheer & basketball team?"

"I will think about it, but Tiara, princess you have got to stay out of trouble! Try not to get kicked out of this high school okay.sweetheart?"

"Yes daddy." i say smiling, I longed to go to Western, even tho its on what's considered to be the ghetto side of town. I wanted badly to be around people who looked like me, thats why i have been getting kicked out of every highschool my dad enrolled me in because it wasnt Western. I was so excited i was going to Western i went shopping to treat myself.

Emily hasnt been back in 2 days, tomorrow i have school so she has to come get Jaun. I rode over to her house to drop off Jaun thinking maybe she forgot that she was suposed to come get him but when i pulled up, there was a for sale sign up in the front yard. I went in the house but all that was there is Jaun's Stuff boxxed and bagged and ready to go and i letter that i quickly began reading.

"Dear Pedro,

Im moving far away, and where i am going i can not take Jaun along. I have a new boyfriend now so i cant be bothered with the Kidd. I know he's in good hands with you. I left 600 dollars in his spiderman bookbag. All his medical informationan and his birth certificate is also in there. I don't know when im coming back or if im coming back at all. Take care of Jaun like i know you will.

Xoxo Love,

Emily"

I got so mad i wanted to kill her. How was i suposed to provide for Jaun? Who'a gone watch him while.im in school or at practice? What am i suposed to do? I sighed. Okay. Okay. Calm down. I just started loading things into my car i just gotta do what i gotta do.
