I felt as if this was all my fault. I shouldn't have been so stupid. My son , lied in a hospital bed due to an overdose of crack cocaine... was my fault. How ... How could I let something like this happen. I should've knew better. I should've known better ... for the safety of my son. But there;s no excuse as of why I did what I did. I'm just blessed that Jordan was alive and stable. I don't know what I would've done without my baby , JoJo. . .

I knew that , as a mother I need to do a better job. I'm not perfect but I should've went about things differently than I did. I'm an adult. Things like this shouldn't happen and that is why I felt as if this was my fault. My son deserves the world , and although I messed up , I won't EVER let anyone prosper against me or my family , again.

"Mamaaa... " Jordan whispered . My eyes filled with water. Hearing his voice again was all I needed.

"Hi babbyy ... Mommy missed you so much ." I said kissing his forehead .


This was my world. My entire heart.

I couldn't be more grateful.

"Ahem!--- Helllooo . . . if I could just get everyone's attention breifly. . "I said , gathering everyone's attention.

" I would just like to thank y'all for coming out and supporting Tori & I on our new house. We really appreciate y'all and all the house warming gifts. " I smiled brightly and looked at Tori playing with Jordan . She looked beautiful as always , She wore :

I could stare at her for days.She was so beautiful... The baby bump made her look like a big dwarf because she was so small but I didn't mind. She was stunning .

 "Also I would like to thank everyone for the gifts of our upcoming daughter. Once again , we love and appreciate y'all a lot , man. Enjoy the rest of y'all evening" I stated. 

It was a beautiful afternoon. I had Mark on the bbq grill , Tori whippin it up in the kitchen , Mya was the DJ &  Our family was here . 

I couldn't ask for more. 

I walked up to Mya , my palms were sweating and I couldn't think straight.

"Yo , I'm freakin out... I ain't never purposed before... What the hell do I even say??? I don't do that corny shit , I ain't bout to get all sentimental and shit." I told Mya , nervously. She laughed at me and kept fixing Raelyn's hair. 

"Just do it .. How you would straight out do it. It don't gotta be that regular will you marry me type shit. Do it how you would. On some real nigga shit , if you get what I'm saying."

She was right. I had to man up and do this shit , like a G. Everytime I  get around Tori I get nervous. It's like she make me feel some typa' way I never felt before. I got a vibe with her that I don't have with anybody else. We connect. I'm in love with her. I gathered everything I wanted to say , grabbed the mic and gathered everyone's attention. 

"Bae , come ere'"I told her. She slowly walked over to me with a fat ass plate of BBQ chicken , potato salad and baked beans in her hand . I laughed at her as she ate .

"What? " She questioned with her mouth full  as everyone stared at her

"Look . . . We been doing this shit for a long time and ... I just wanted you to know that I love you , man. With everything in me and I couldn't ask for anyone better to be in my life. As corny as this shit sound. . . I wanna spend the rest of my life with you . . . You , Jordan and my babygirl . . . Marry me , T .  "

She looked at me with a smile on her face and nodded. I pulled the ring out my pocket and slid it on her finger and held her tight. 

"Shiddd.... I guess this turned out to be a House Warming , Baby Shower , & Engagement party." Mya said , clapping her hands along with everyone else . 

"I guess so."
