Her strength

chapter 2

Kyle goes to his "fan girls" when we reach and honestly I have no problem with that.
I just want to focus on my education so I could make sure Reece's life is waaaa better than mine.

Okay I lied. Not about making sure Reece's has a great life but the part about me not having a problem with it. I kinda do but just a tiny bit. It's not like I want him to do the same to me that disgusting

I am a social bird if u ask me so I have quite a number of friends in college. Am not known as the college slur but more like the fun funny girl.

I like it.

I like it when people like me because my parents didn't even bother liking me. They are supposed to love me but that's one thing they didn't do so it feels good knowing a liked by people. Nawatamean.

The rest of the day is just a blur.

Now am in the car alone since Kyle had a date or hookup or one night stand. Aren't one night stands and hookups kind of the same thing. Hmmmm. Well anyway you get the point. Holdup it's not night yet.
So one day stand. Let's go with that.

When I get home, I dress up casually just sandals sweat pants and a loose tank top.

I grab my purse and drive to Reece's school.
Oh.

My.

Goodness.

Reece is crying and his head is wounded.
The fuck did this to him. Without wasting time I run to him and take him to the car.

"Reece who did this to you?" I asked seriously.

Silence

"Reece"

Silence

"Reece talk to me baby"

Silence.

Lol. His sleeping. I was about to shout at him. Finally I can see our lovely home. With out wasting time I carry Reece and take him to the bathroom
Am pretty sure his fully awake now.

"Reece this is gonna hurt just a tiny bit okay not much"

"Okay ma"

Reece's wound wasn't that deep or big but it also didn't seem like it happened because he fell.
Looks like someone hit him with a stone or he bumped into a brick stone something of the sort.
I am gonna talk to him after.
Surprisingly he didn't even wince he just looked at me and after left without saying a word. Something is wrong. Recce always talks about school anf things like that. He is a talkative boy. This is not good.

I decide to follow him.
"Reece what's wrong?"

"Mummy  I don't like don't having a dad.
It's not fun. Jason has a dad, Michael has a dad even lawson has a dad and all there dads  buy them nice things." I shouted with his baby voice.

Am hurt.

Am hurt for him.

I knew this day will come. The day he feels left out. The day he stops thinking of me like his hero and heroine. I wanna cry but I know I will just look weak in front of him.

"Michael said you can't buy me things and that dads are better. He also said my dad left you and me because he doesn't like me. He said my dad left you because he doesn't like me. That's why dad left right?" He said with his head down.
Who is this Michael  and why the he'll would he tell a four year old such a thing.
I will have to talk to his parents.

"No Reece dad didn't want to leave but he had to go. Dad had to go because..." I can't. I can't tell him David died. Am still don't over here but I know I have to.

"Reece Dad left because a very bad irresponsible man knocked him. So he went to heaven so he could watch for us from up there. You know_ it's safer when his watching us from up because he can see everything from above. Reece dad is always with us he didn't and he will never leave us . Okay baby; he loves you so much you have no idea. "

"Really?"

"Yes. If you want anything tell me, anything Reece. Now, you have to eat, after we will have icecream."

"Can kyle come?" He asked. It's funny how them baby's forget so easily.

"I don't know honey. He is quite... busy" I hesitate while saying busy because I wasn't gonna say he has a hookup. Hell to the no. Not in front of my world.

Reece ran to eat.

I love him so much.

-----------😀---------------------------------------------------
"Reece decide. She has been waiting for over 15 minutes now. Hurry or she will leave you don't want that right"

"Mommy but they are so many. I can't decide"

" Okay I'll decide for you. How about like mine"

"Okay " He says with a sigh.

"Mommy why isn't kyle here. I wanted him to come." He asked.
Even if don't know. Honestly, am starting to get worried. Kyle has never been this late before. Unlike the other guys, Kyle doesn't do night time hookup thingys.  He is always early if not for me but for Reece.

"Isn't it mom?" Reece's voice interrupts my thoughts.

"Uhmm yes." I say hoping he didn't say something like. Mom you don't need me isn't it.

"Yayyy am done with my icecream let's go get my remote control car. "
Oh so that's what he wants.

Lucky I brought enough money.

After getting back home, Kyle isn't yet here, I shower Reece and take him to bed.

"Mommy sing a song. I like your voice." 
That's sweet. I actually sing. Surprise surprise.

Okay Reece.
I  decide to sing rackabay by Sean Paul.
"She tells him o  love no one's every gonna hurt you love am gonna give you all of my life nobody matters like you
She tells him your life ain't gone be nothing like my life your gonna grow and have a good life am gonna do what I have to do."

I sing that part 3 times and successful Reece is safe.
That song means a lot to me. I feel like I can relate. I feel like we single teen moms are being appreciated.

It's a good feeling.

Okay that's it am calling kyle.

He took a long time but he did answer.

"Kyle what the fuck man where are you
You can't just decide to leave like that it's 9 already." Am angry.

"Anna I'll you later" He says in a very husky deep voice. Am pretty sure I heard a female voice asking if him if I was his girlfriend.

Damn.

Well am kinda feel bad.

Won't let that get to me though.

I shower and go to sleep. Tomorrow someone's got a lot of explanation to do.
