#Her- Part One

If Time Machines Are Real I Would Go Back In Time To Where She Was Happy In My Arms. I've Always Thought I Was The Shit Until She Came Along. She Made Me Feel Equal And Loved. She Was My Everything Until It Turned Into Dust. She Would Say Goodnight To My Belly Even Though It Wasn't Her Child And I Cheated For The First Time. I Mean I Still Had A " Boyfriend" But Behind Closed Doors I Was All Hers. Me Being Hot Up In The Ass Fucked Everything Up. Now That I'm Alone And Just Had A Baby. She Still Doesn't Notice Me. I'm Just Erica Mena, A High School Student And She Is Ms. Cynthia Santana, My Music And Arts Teacher.

" Hi If I Don't Answer It Don't Mean I Forgot About You. I'll Always Have Time For You And Call You"

That's The Eighth Time I Called Her. All I Wanted To Tell Her Was My Baby Was Born. She Even Has His Own Room Set Up At Her House. I Wonder If It's Still There. She Actually Wanted The Child And To Help Me Raise Him With No Problem But That Was Five Months Ago. I Want Her To See The Child At Least Once Before Linda And Jason Try To Drag Me Back Home. Apparently My Mother Miss Me, Which Makes Me Laugh Because She Kicked Me Out For Dating My Teacher And Being A Girl At That. Cyn Helped Me Move Into The Place I Have Now.

" Fuck This Shit Man" I Mumble To Myself As I Get Up Going Into My Son's Room.

I See His Tiny Body Finally Sleeping After A Long Night. He Actually Favors Her A Little Bit But Still Looks Like His Father, Which Made No Effort To See Him. Cyn Signed The Birth Certificate But Haven't Seen The Baby, Which Is Weird. It Shows She Still Care About The Child Though. I Packed Up His Baby Bag And Got Him Dressed Gently Then Called A Cab And Left.

"Where To Ma'am?" He Says To Me As I Give Him The Money.

Erica: " To 216 Apple Mable Street" I Respond Back Buckling Up My Son As I Buckle Up Myself.

" Alrighty Ma'am" He Says With A Genuine Smile.

He Makes Small Talk But I Just Nod. The Only Thing On My Mind Is Would She Actually Give Me Some Of Her Time. I Know With Her Ex- Husband Ray Out The House She Would Finally Have Some Peace Since He Was All Up Her Ass When I Came Around. The Cab Driver Pulled Up To Her Beautiful House. I See She Made Some Changes With The Colors. It Used To Be White And This Tan Color As The Outline And Not It Has Black Outlining, Her Frames Changed, And Overall It Changed For The Better.

Erica: " Don't Leave Yet Please. I Don't Want To Be Stranded" I Said Back To Me Laughing Softly.

" All Right Ma'am" He Laughs As Well In Response.

I Grabbed My Baby And Our Things Then Walked Up Her Driveway With A Mix Of Emotions Overtaking Me. Maybe This Is A bad Idea But If I Turn Back Around I Will Never Know What Could Have Happened. I Slowly Stepped Onto Her Porch And Pressed On Her Doorbell.

Ding Ding

" HOLD ON! I'M COMING" She Yells Out Through The Door.

Seconds Later She Opened The Door Looking Beautiful As Always. The Simplest Things Makes Her Curves Stick Out.

Cyn: " Hell- What Are You Doing? Is The Baby Okay" Avoiding To Look Into My Gaze.

Erica: " I Just Came For You To See The Baby Since You Left After Signing The Birth Certificate And Missed The Birth" Looking Down At My Feet.

Cyn: " Oh...Um Well Come On In. I Don't Wanna The Baby To Get Sick" Holding The Door Open For Me.

Erica: " Well Thank You " Walking In After Waving The Driver Off Still Not Looking Up At Her.

I Look Around And Nothing Much Changed But The Furniture. It Do Smell Good Ass Fuck In Here. She Stay Cooking And Won't Let Anyone In Kitchen Besides Her Mama.

Erica: " I Like The New Changes To The Place" Putting The Car Seat On Top Of The Wooden Table.

Cyn:" Thanks...I Needed A New Change Yanno" Sitting On The Opposite Couch. " Oh Shit Let Me Wash My Hands. I'll Be Back" Smiling As She Gets Up From The Couch.

Erica: " Well Here He Is " Giving Him To Her As She Walks Back Into The Living Room.

Cyn: " Omg He's So Precious And So Tiny. I Can Crush Him With One Hand " Gushing Over Him As She Is Smiling Ear To Ear Sitting Down.

Erica: " Please Don't " Laughing A Little Bit To Her Response.

Cyn: " I Won't...So How Have You Been Yanno Since You Are A Mother Now" She Asks Me.

Erica: " I'm Making It By " I Say Laughing.

Cyn: " What Do You Mean Making It By? I Paid Up To Four Months" She Has This look Of Concern On Her Face.

Erica: " No Nothing Like That But My Ma Wants Me Back Home Where I'm Supposed To Be And Wants To Help. Well That's What Linda And Jason Say. " Looking Down Playing With My Fingers. " Besides That I Am Happy With Him But I Have To Work Two Jobs To Provide For Him. He's Worth It Though" Looking At Him Smiling.

Cyn: " Despite Of What Happened In Between Us I'll Watch Him And If Needs ANYTHING Don't Hesitate Come Over. I Barely Answer My Phone These Days Because Of Toll Calls" Playing With His Curls.

Well That Makes Me Feel A Little Better But She Still Avoids Me.

Erica: " That's Means A lot Coming From You But Um...Can I Ask You Something?" Looking Up At Her.

Cyn: "Sure Wassup" Playing With His Little Hand. " Wait I Never Asked What Was His Name. I Signed It While While They Cut His Ebilical Cord But I Had Another Emergency"

Erica: " His Name Is King Javien Conde Mena. He Didn't Come Into The World Without Him So That's Just A Gift To Him From Me " She Looked Sad Once I Mentioned Raul But Happy I Named Him The Name She Picked Out Since She Has A Dog Name Prince. " Will You Ever Forgive Me" Looking At Her In Her Eyes.

Cyn: " I've Already Forgiven You But That Doesn't Mean Its Forgotten" With That Being Said She Got Up And Left Out Of My Sight.
