Michael's POV
It's been a few days since Ocean and I talked and at first I was kind of hurt that she wanting to wait awhile before we renew our vows or have another baby, but when she explained to me why, I completely understood and feel really bad for trying to push her and I realised just how selfish I was being, trying to keep her home all the time just because of my paranoia.
Over the weekend I've been helping her look for some part time work, but so far we haven't been able to find anything. We both dropped out of school after we had DJ, so neither of us got any kind of degrees, but unlike me, Ocean doesn't really have any work experience other that a weekend grocery store she worked at for like a month and got fired from after slapping my old boss in the face (which he deserved) but other that that she doesn't really have anything and I know it's partly my fault that she can't find any work. If I hadn't have gotten her pregnant then she would have stayed in school and most likely would have gone to college and studied to be a doctor like her parents had planned and would probably be at university right now, but instead she has 3 kids, 1 failed job and a handful of attempts at going back to school which never worked out and now I'm determined to find something for her. At first I hated the idea and apart of me would still prefer that she stay home and just let me take care of her, but this is something she really wants. Having a part time job may not seem like a big thing to most people, but having that little bit of independence really means a lot to Ocean and I'm doing my best to try and help her more around the house and making sure DJ and Veah help too.
since it's Ocean's turn to sleep in, I'm downstairs getting DJ and Veah ready for daycare and DJ is still complaining about the new sleeping arrangements.
"But it's not fair. Why do I have to share with a baby?"
"We already explained why. You and Mikey will be sharing and Veah and Princess will be sharing"
"But why?"
"Because it's nice to share"
"Then can I share with you and mommy?"
"No"
"But you said it's nice to share" he frowns confused. "It is. Which is why your gonna be sharing your room with your cousin" I smile "If it's nice to share then why can't you and mommy share with me?"
"Because I said so. Now hurry up and get ready for daycare" I smile and turn to look for his shoes.
"Are you and mommy gonna make another baby!?" He smiles excitedly "What? No. We just think that it's best that everybody sleeps in their own rooms from now on"
"But Mikey and Princess share with you and mommy" he frowns confused. "Well now Mikey will be sharing with you and Princess will be sharing with Veah and mommy and daddy share" I explain and he nods and walks over to Veah.
"Their gonna have sex"
"DJ!"
"But that's how you and mommy said you make a baby" he shrugs "Not the point. Don't say things like that to your sister. That's for me and mommy to explain to her"
"Don't you think she's a little young to be teaching her about sex?" Janet says, walking into the room. "There’s isn't an age limit to talk to your kids" I point out. "No, but you told DJ when he was like 2 an a half"
"For good reason. If our parents had spoken to us about it when we were younger then maybe it wouldn't have taken me and Ocean so long to speak up about being abused and we told him where babies come from because Ocean's mom and aunt were filling his head with bullshit" I explain.
"They said babies come from a stork" DJ giggles, cutting in. "See What I mean?" I shrug. "I still think it's way too young. And the whole puberty and sex education talk is for the schools to deal with not the parents" she shrugs "yeah and look what a great job they did on that one" I chuckle slightly under my breath then turn to finish getting the kids ready.
