The Hood Don't Love You

Chapter 1

Jamerica Williams|Bambi

"King Jamir Jackson, if you don't sit your behind down and eat this food I know somethin' !", I yelled at my four year old son.

"Yes mommy.", he said as he sat down in one of the chairs and began eating his chicken nuggets from McDonalds. I went into the living room and began eating on my McChicken as I flipped through the movies on NetFlix.

"Can we watch Spongebob mommy? Please?", he asked while putting on his pouting face. My son was really a trip, but I loved him to death. He was a splitting image of his father and deceased uncle, which explains his name.

"Okay, but only if you promise to sleep in mommy's room tonight.", I said with a smirk. He hated sleeping with me, but I love having him up under me. He is mommy's little man.

"I promise.", he said with a smile before stuffing his face with another chicken nugget. I chose a Spongebob episode and began fiddling with my phone. I'm not the type to sit and watch cartoons, but as long as he is happy, I'm happy.

Lay(BestB♥) : i just landed back in Miami, i'll be in Tallahassee by Wednesday night.

I started smiling and did a little happy dance. My best friend was finally home from England, and I've been missing her these past four years.

'turn up boo!', I replied before getting up and throwing my trash away. I grabbed a moist dish rag from by the sink and began wiping the area where King was eating, as he sat on the couch and watched Spongebob. I went a grabbed a blanket from upstairs before picking him up and laying him on me. I covered us with the blanket and continued to fiddle with my phone as he drifted to sleep.

I sat down at one of the tables in the visiting room of the Leon County Correctional Facility, after going through the complete evaluation and search from the guard police officers. I waited patiently before the buzzer went off and the love of my life walked through the iron door in an orange jumpsuit and some newly grown facial hair. He had gotten buffer and looked better than what he did before he came to jail. It had been a month since I had seen BJ after he was sentenced to five years in jail, which was a short term due to him having a gun and drug charge.

"Baby!", I screeched out as I ran up and pulled him into an embrace. Lord knows I missed this boy with all of my heart, and going without him was not easy. He hugged me tightly before pulling away and kissing my lips passionately.

"No physical contact!", the skinny, white police officer yelled out.

"Aye man, shut the hell up.", BJ yelled back while pulling away and guiding me back to the table by my hand.

"So what's been up baby girl? You look nice as fuck, and your body turning into-. Just damn ma!", he said while sitting down. I smirk, knowing that I had wore my fitted dress and heels just for him. Had to look good for my baby.

"Awe, thanks boo. You did it.", I said with a wink."And I have some news to tell you."

"Which is? Don't hold out on me.", he said while smiling back at me.

"I'm pregnant.", I said with a smile. I was happy about my pregnancy, although I was only 18, I had made it into college and I was going to be able to provide for my child. Even with the fucked up situation their father is in.

BJ sat on the other side of the table looking back at me. His smile had dropped and he looked as though I had just ran over his most latest version of 2K with a semi truck. He sat in silence for a few minutes, as though he was thinking about what to say. My smile eventually dropped to, considering that I thought he would've been happier about the situation.
