Janet's POV

It's the first morning at our new house and I wake up to the beautiful smell of mother's cooking downstairs.

"Breakfast is ready sweetie" mother smiles, as I walk into the kitchen. "Did you sleep ok?"

"Mhm" I smile and sit at the table. "I need you to eat up then start getting ready" she smiles, placing a plate of food in front of me. "I'll go get ready Your apointments in and hour and I'll let your father know that..."

"Dad's coming too!?" I cut her off. "Of course not. I'm just gonna let him know we'll be leaving soon" she chuckles slightly. "Have you spoken to Ocean or Michael today?" I ask, changing the topic. "No, why? Did you forget something at their house?"

"No, I was just wondering if they were gonna come over today or if I could go to them. I barley saw Mikey yesterday. Mrs Baker and her daughter spent more time with him than me"

"I know, but I'm sure they didn't mean anything by it. They were just busy helping us move and trust me, having a 4 year old, 3 year old, 2 year old and a one year old makes moving very difficult. Although it's wouldn't suprise me if they had another one soon. It's like they have mission to have a baby every year" she chuckles at that last part. "But they haven't had another baby since Princess and that was two years ago" I point out. "Oh yeah" she mutters to herself. "Speaking of babies. I should start getting ready" I say, getting up from my seat. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to...."

"It's fine" I cut her off. "How about I call them and ask them to come over after work? We need to discuss your trial anyway and it'll give you a chance to spend some time with Mikey" she suggest and I nod and smile at her through pursed lips then leave to get ready.

It's not that I have a problem with her talking about Michael and Ocean or the idea of them having more kids someday because their great parents and I'm sure one day the will have another baby, but it just annoys me the way people always include Mikey when they talk about their kids. Mikey's MY son not theirs. I'm sure mother didn't didn't mean anything by it, but it still annoyed me her even bringing it up. Especially today.

Once I'm done getting getting ready, I sit on my bed thinking about everything thats happened and there's a light knock on the door and mother walks in.

"Are you ok?" She asks walking over and sits beside me on the bed. "Do you think I'm doing the right thing?" I ask and she sighs slightly. "Sweetie, I've  already told you how I feel about this" she says softly. "But if you were me? Would you keep it?"

"It doesn't matter what I would have done because it's not my child and I've never been in your situation. Only you know if it's the right thing to to or not"

"Ocean was 15 when she had DJ. Do you think she should have..."

"Ocean's situation was different from yours" she cuts me off "Sure there are some simalarities, but it's not the same thing and that's why she wouldn't give you an answer either when you asked her yesterday"

"You heard that?" I ask and she nods. "I wasn't eaves dropping. I came upstairs to get another box for the moving van and heard the 2 of you talking"

"Oh" I mumble "Janet? Are you sure you want to go through with this?" She asks and I nod. "I don't wanna have Chad's baby" I shake my head "And I don't wanna be 15 with 2 kids and 2 baby daddies and be like those girls. I already have 1 child and the next time I have a baby, I wanna be married and have a good job and a stable home... I don't want this baby" I mutter that last part and she nods. "Then you don't have to. You don't have to do anything you don't want to" she says softly and wraps her arms around me.
