Skye P.O.V
"Damn! It's 7:30 already ? Seem like I just laid down but I guess another day another dollar! I got to get up so I can get this money for us." I said looking at my sleeping daughter. I set on the edge of my bed for a minute rubbing the crust out my mouth. Then I finally got up to start my daily routine. After I finished doing my daily hygiene cleaning I went to the trashed bag where I had clothes for me and my baby girl since we had been staying with my grandma.
Ever since I left my mother house because of her abusive boyfriend Mark I stayed with my grandma. I'll stop by from time to to time while Mark was out but I would never stay to long. I usually give my mother a few dollars to get herself something to eat but most of the time she use it for drugs it hurts me to see her like this but all I can do is pray. I finally found me something nice to wear to school. I put my work outfit in a separate bag.I woke Peytonn up so I could give her a bath , comb her hair , and dress her so my grandmother would have less work to do while I'm at school and work.
Once I was finished me and Peytonn went down stairs to see my grandma cooking breakfast and reading her bible. "Good morning grandma I'm running little late but I have made sure Peytonn was dressed just if you have some where to go , and i also should have your money tonight for keeping Peytonn for me." I said while fixing one of Peytonn's plats.
"Child you don't owe me anything because I want you to get your education and your high school diploma now gone before you get left by the bus love you and be careful it's getting dangerous out there." Grandma said while pulling me into a hug. I hugged her back and kissed her forehead. "Okay Love You Too Grandma! Peytonn mommy loves you, be good for granny okay." I Said giving my daughter a big kiss on the cheek before walking out.Feedback is accepted
