MAY

I woke up around seven in the morning and that was normal for me, even though I hated waking up early. I checked on Jazmine and I saw that she was still sound asleep, I smiled at myself cause she looked so cute sleeping in he princess pajamas.

I went into the kitchen and made myself a bowl of Captain Crunch. I sat back on my bed and turned on the tv, I made sure that the volume was on low so I wouldn't wake up Jazmine.

Luckily I had free cable. When I first moved here I screwed in the cable plug into my tv and thankfully I was able to get some cable channels. I turned the channel to BET and it was showing last nights episode of "Being Mary Jane" one of my favorite shows.

I had to go to work in a few hours, and I was gonna drop of Jazmine at her grandma's house. I hated working on weekends but I needed the money. I wanted to move into a bigger apartment and I also wanted to get a car, cause I'm getting tired of taking the bus and I can't rely on Dee all the time.

I checked my phone and I had a few messages from Dee and Devon. I didn't feel like replying to neither of them so I tossed my phone to the side.

Sometimes I wish that I could go back in time, and undo all the things I did with Devon. I'm not saying that I regret having Jazmine, I just wish that I would of had her at a later time. I think things would be easier for me if I wouldn't have gotten pregnant at 17.

But I felt like I was doing good for a single mother. I had job and I made sure Jazmine was taken care of plus I was in school. I didn't see many young mothers doing what I was doing, but who I am to judge.

It was a lot of work for taking care of a kid, going to work and school. Dee was always asking me "how do I do it?" And honestly I don't even know the answer to that.

I heard a knock on my door and I furrowed my eyebrows cause I was wondering who could be at my door early this morning. I got up and went to the door. I looked through the peep hole and I saw that it was Devon. What was he doing at my house? I don't recall inviting him over.

"What do you want?" I said as I opened the door.

"No good morning? Hi how are you?" Devon said.

"No! You didn't even have the decency to take your daughter to school yesterday, so don't expect me to be nice to you." I said

"Damn it's like that?" Devon said

"That's what no good fathers get treated." I said.

"I am a good father! Unlike some of these guys here I take care of my responsibilities." Devon stated,

"You didn't even call me to tell me you wasn't going to take Jazmine to school and on top of that you gave me a lame ass excuse! Your daughter wants to see you Devon. She's always asking me when can she you again! Now does that sound like a man who takes care of his responsibilities?" I said

I was beginning to get upset, I was somewhat having a good mining but Devon was starting to fuck that up.

"Girl I know I know. That's why I'm here. Now can you let a brotha in." Devon said.

I opened the door wider, and let Devon in.

"I forgot how cute you looked when you get mad." Devon said.

I blushed a little. "Don't try to get on my good side, I'm still mad at you."

"Girl you know you can never stay mad at me. I always found a way to make you happy." Devon said with a perverted smirk.

I had a frown on my face, because I didn't like the fact that Devon was flirting with me even thigh he had a girlfriend.

"Umm don't you have a girlfriend.... Whose pregnant?!" I said.
