Melody's POV

"Mommy! Mommy! It's time to wake up!" ,Shouted my almost four year old nephew -more like son - at six in the frigging morning.

"Tommy , baby it's too early to be up. How bout you go back to bed?" ,I said in my groggy morning voice .
"But mommy I'm not sleepy and you promised to take me to the park before you went to work" ,He said while giving me those puppy dog eyes that I seem to fall for every time.

Crap ! I knew I shouldn't have promised to take him to the park, but I couldn't help it, I was excited because I just got my paycheck and made a promise to Tommy without thinking much of it.

But the kid deserves it, He's always stuck indoors with Miss Barnes from next door who babysits him while I'm at work. He definetly needs some fresh air. Groaning inwardly and getting up from bed , I began to move to the bathroom to get ready for a long long day.

"You win kiddo , Why don't you go get ready while I freshen up?" ,I said in a defeated voice.
"Okay mommy ! Thank you so much" ,He said and kissed my cheek .

It just seems like yesterday when my brat of a sister dropped of 5-month old Tommy on my doorstep with a letter saying she didn't want a "stupid" baby in her life . This happened 3 and a half years ago and she was 19 at that time .She claimed he was a mistake and he would ruin her chances with a rich old man who she was seeing. I hadn't heard from her since then and to be honest I don't really care.

Tommy is the only and most important person in my life right now. He may not be my biological son but I love him to death.I felt pride when he called me mommy for the first time. My heart seems to sink everytime I think of the fact that at some point in Tommy's life I would have to tell him about his biological mom but I hope with all my heart that he doesn't hate me.

My brat of a sister truly didn't want him when she left his birth certificate with my name and signature on it. My sister truly wasn't like this but mom and dad's death changed her for bad.

We like any other family were happily living a normal life when it was snatched from us in just a day. My sister and I came home from school only to find out from an officer at our doorstep that our parents had died instantly in a car crash. I was eighteen then and my sister was 17.
We lived off on our parents bank savings which was estimated to take care of us for not more than two years.

I had to get a job to help us survive along side going to school.My sister on the other hand continued her schooling . I noticed some changes in her as time went on but she always told me off when I asked her what was wrong. I got pretty busy with school and work that I paid less attention to her. When she turned eighteen she ran away from home with some dude she always spent time with . She took along with her all the money left in my parents account and left me a letter saying she couldn't deal with me anymore.

With nothing but my job left I managed to finish high school and 2 years in community college studying medicine before I had to drop out to save my parent's house. I ended up loosing the house and moved into a crappy apartment working as a full time waitress at a coffee shop.

Snapping out of memory lane I moved to the bathroom and did my morning routine .As I was brushing my teeth I stared at my self in the mirror.A 23 year old woman (24 in a few weeks) with a cute son even though I'm a virgin in every aspect . Yup you heard it right! Never had a boyfriend before since I was too busy trying to make ends meet. I prefer to save my virginity for my future husband ,not that I'm a prude or anything. Sighing ,I made my way out of the bathroom after taking my bath and dressing up. Well let the day begin!
