When I woke up the next morning, I had a huge headache.  I looked to the side of me and there was the guy I was talking to.  Shit what time is it.  2PM!! JAX!!

Ethan-Yeah he's fine, was it a long night
Faith-Ok, um I will be over there in a little bit just have to, do something
Ethan-Take your time

I hung up and I looked at the guy, I don't even know his name.  God my head.  I got up and I went to make coffee, soon the guy walks out and he seems like in a rash.

Guy-Sorry, I have to go
Faith-Yeah, Yeah um I never got your name
Ivan-Ivan and yours
Faith-Faith

Before he walked out, he looked at me and I stopped and looked at me.

Ivan-Thanks, for listening last night, I really needed that
Faith-Yeah, no promble, come back anytime
Ivan-Trust me I will

I smiled and he smiled back, his smile, oh my God.  I finished my "lunch" and I went to go get Jax, I called into school and I have to make up time but I don't care.  I got to Ethan's and Jax came and hugged me, when I open my eyes I see my mom and dad standing there.

Mom-You know how much we have been worried about you
Faith-Jax, honey go get your things
Jax-Where were you
Faith-I was at school
Dad-Listen to your mother
Faith-No, why would I? With listening my son would be dead right now, I am done listening to this bull shit
Ethan-Stop you three
Jax-Mommy
Faith-Honey, come here

He ran into my arms and hugged me, I picked him up and I walked out with him and Ethan.

Faith-I do not want him to see mom or dad anymore
Ethan-Just sit down and talk about this
Faith-We tried that so many times to count, I'm raising this kid by myself
Ethan-I understand
Faith-If you don't repact my parenting then your out of his picture too and you know from the last 3 mouths I am not afraid to put my son first

Ethan said nothing, so I just walked away.  Jax started to cry and I was trying not to cry, but when I got home I put on a movie for Jax, gone in my room and cried.  I can't do this anymore.  I can't be a good parent.  I can't be like my mom and dad, raise two kids by myself.  What was I thinking.
