Today is the day I'm moving back to New York, I'm  more excited than the first time because me and Ricky are still together. I'm in the room packing the rest of my things thinking about the baby growing in my stomach, when I suddenly feel a pair of tiny arms wrapped around my leg.
" mommy please don't leave me"John says with tears in his eyes.
I bend down to John and engulf him in a hug
" I would never leave you John"

"Yes you would, you are doing it now" John says while pushing himself out of my arms.
" John you and daddy are going to meet mommy in New York, I'm not leaving you I promise" I say trying to get hold of him, but he keeps pushing my hands away. John runs out the room as I call out his name, tears began to form in my eyes. I can't believe John is acting this way towards me I think to myself he really is making me second guess my decision. I stand up from the floor and continue packing, I suddenly feel a pair of arms wrapped around my waist.
" He is only three, he doesn't understand" Ricky says in my ear.
" I know, but he looked so hurt Ricky"
" I don't know if I can do this" I say turning to face Ricky. He looks me in the eyes and he leans his forehead against mine.
" yes you can, go and be happy " I look into his eyes and see a flash of hurt and sadness but is quickly recovered to reassurances.
" ok, but promise me you will be out there in a month or two" I say as a tear falls.
" I promise" he says, I lean in and give him a simple but soft kiss.
I break out of his grip on my waist and turn around to grab my things. I walk out the room and into the living room to see John playing with his toys.
" John give mommy a kiss, I'm about to leave"
John just looks at me and doesn't say anything
" John come here please" I say almost pleading.
" no" John says as he gets up and runs to his daddy. My heart begins to break and I can't stand to be in this apartment anymore. I speed walk out the door and down the stairs with my things I rush outside to see my taxi already outside waiting on me. The guy grabs my things and puts it in the trunk as I get in the backseat. I look out the window to see John and Ricky standing outside, Ricky is waving and John is sticking his tongue out at me. The taxi pulls off and I break down and start crying.
