Its 6am now, I've been walking for quite sometime. I have a child, and no where to go. I was suppose to go to school, but thats not going to happen. Shit! Me and Jada needs food!! I walk into a local restaurant owned by Mr. & Mrs. Smith Called "Sniff. The Smiths" I always thought the name was corny, but the food is always popping. *ding ding* "Hello ma'am, we're pleased to have you here.. If you have any questions let me know, and as always you're more than welcome to sit and sniff the smiths." I lightly laugh and look over the menu. I only have $4.23 in my wallet i settle for an min bacon, egg, & cheese stuffed hashbrown. The total came out to be $3.19. I get my food and jada starts crying i look through my bag to find the half full bottle of formula that she has left over from her last feeding then i suddenly realize i have no money for formula. "Fuck it this the life i wanted for me or jada" I think as im standing in line for a bed at the shelter. I've been here for 4hours and we're next in line. "AMINATA JEALO" a woman yells from the rustic door. " C'mon child we aint got all day" I slowly walk, taking in my surroundings...
