November

Grace was making me go to these parenting classes that were supposed to prepare you for parenthood. Their twice a week classes from 7-9:30. She wanted to go really badly so I agreed to go with her. As much as I say I don't wanna go I do because I need to learn how to be a parent I'm not even sure how to change a diaper.

"What do we need to bring you think?" She said putting makeup on

"Baby I don't think we need to bring anything aren't they supposed to teach us stuff"

"Yeah they are but I just wanna be prepared" She said

              "We are muffin"

                We got down to the living room and the whole family was awake. Rico was the only one who knew about grace being pregnant so he was the only one who knew we were going to these classes. Rico was sitting on the couch and he looked up at us from his phone. Grace was noticeably bigger because she's hitting the almost 3 month mark, she had a sweatshirt on that kind of hid it though because my aunt, and other cousin had no clue.

            "Where are you guys going" Rico asked

            "The place" I said

            "Oh the classes" He said with his coffee mug in one hand and his Nike sweats hanging low on his waist with a white shirt

"Yeah we'll be gone a couple hours just tell aunty we went out and we'll be back later tonight" I said

"Okay guys have fun and cover that belly they'll notice" Rico smiled

Grace and I stepped out into the darkness and coldness of the November Chicago nights that were almost below 20 degrees. Grace pulled my north face sweater tighter around her body trying to shove her face it it for warmth, her cheeks were a crimson red and her breaths were cold as she cuddled against me. I could feel my nose getting colder as I rested my arm around her shoulders and walked her to the car.

The classes were more towards the city we lived off of the city so it wasn't so busy it was kind of the ghetto if Chicago which was pretty dangerous. It was a class in the hospital we went to for her first and the other ultrasounds we've gotten so far. Their were slot of pregnant girls here but I didn't know which were here for the class or the doctor. When we got in their their was actually a lot of couples in their but the sad part was a lot of them were their by themselves I can't believe these dudes just get these girls pregnant with their kid and walk away.

"Okay so this class is going to teach you about what goes on inside the body during the first 5 months and a sped up version on how it happened" The teacher said

She put in a video of a cartoon having sex and it showed how teens are easy and they'll all fuck each other because their most horny when your a teenager when all your hormones are flowing through your body making you into a man or women one day. So it's proven teens hVe more sex and their more careless. Teens don't usually wear a condom on the poll the class took. She then showed us a video of how the baby grows and progresses during the first trimester.

"That wasn't too bad but I feel like the didnt teach us anything" I said

"Your not gonna learn anything the first day" Grace said

"Your right, wanna get food?" I asked

               "Yeah"

               I was thinking about the class we just went to and it was nice I guess I didn't really learn anything I already knew how you made a baby I was just careless and I thought my pull out game was strong but I guess not since I'm gonna be a daddy. I was hoping we were gonna learn how to take care of a baby because I already messed up on the making one part so we shouldn't relive the past.

               I needed to learn how to change a diaper and to feed a baby I don't know if Grace was gonna breastfeed or not I was scared of the day she was gonna have the baby. We were gonna find out what the sex of it was soon and I was so excited I almost didn't want a boy so he wouldn't follow in my footsteps and be in a gang and shit but I know if we have a girl that I'm gonna be so extremely over protective of my daughter especially because of Snake and shit nobody will come near her or I'll kill them.

               "I kind of already knew those things about how a baby was made" She smirked "We spent a lot of time doing that"

            I laughed "Yeah your right their muffin"

           "I guess we know more about it then we think" She said

           "Yeah maybe but you know that baby stuff you know how to change a diaper and feed it" I said

          "It's a natural instinct when your a parent it will just come to you and babe it might be scary and you might think you don't know but you will" She reassured

         "Maybe your right muffin" I said putting my hand on her thigh "I can't wait to find out the sex"

          "Yeah me too, I think it might be a girl" She smiled down at her belly

           "Please don't say that muffin" I chuckled looking at her

             "Why you don't want a daddy's girl?" She said

              "Of course I do but face it muffin if we have a girl I'll be so overprotective like some possessive guy" I said

             "But if we have a girl I can't really change that but I just have a feeling .we'll find out soon" She said

            We stopped talking after that and I pulled into a Chicago wings that was close to the classes we were just at.

           I was hoping that we weren't having a girl even though I would love to have a daughter but I would be so overprotective I wouldn't let anyone near my daughter and especially when she was older and got a boyfriend I would be crazy. If we have a boy though I'm worried he'll follow my steps but at least I can teach him how to protect himself and not worry. I knew I always wanted kids with her one day but I'm so scared of being a parent.
