Joslin POV

"C'mon Mercedes" Joslin Jones screeched.

She rushed her and her child through the alley. This wasn't the first time the police had chased after her. Shoplifting no longer bothered her. Stealing no longer bothered her. She climbed into the dumpster with Mercedes.

"Momma,"

"Shhh. Momma needs you to be quiet like last time. Okay?" she whispered

Mercedes nodded her head and laid it n her moms lap. As she waited for the cops to clear out, Joslin stroked her child's hair while thinking about how she had gotten into this mess.

Flashback

"Hey Baby" The man I loved whispered into my ear. Dimitry Green was the quarterback, captain of the basketball team , Mr. Fine, and all around good guy. He ran Lima High and when he saw something he wanted he went after it. And this time that something was Joslin Jones. She had always been very outspoken and upfront with everyone but also had a kind heart. He liked her not just because she had a bangin' body but because she was herself. The first time he laid eyes on her he knew she was gonna be his.

Joslin didn't really care for him at first. She couldn't believe a guy like that would be into her. Plus she thought he was way too cocky. But he was very persistent and persuading so ever since the beginning of sophomore year they had been together. Throughout high school Joslin knew he had a wandering eye but she didn't mind. She could appreciate eye candy every once in a while too but admiring a person with your tongue down their throat wasn't workin' for her. She immediately broke up with him but after a week of him begging she finally gave in and they got back together again. She would never admit defeat but somehow Dimitry could always change her mind; she truly believed she was in love with him.

After high school Joslin had gotten an academic scholarship to NYU and Dimitry got a football scholarship into NYU. Joslins parents didn't like Dimitry at all and didn't want her to go to New York with him but she was determined to go to NYU with her "love". Angered by her decision her parents refused to see her off to New York. It was hard knowing that her parents didn't believe in her choices but she toughed it out. NY life was wonderful for the most part. Dimity and Joslin lived in a small apartment in Harlem and their love was still going strong. All was well until she got a letter in the mail saying her scholarship money was depleting and soon she would have to use her own money.

She was devastated and soon started looking for another job to bring in money. Dimitry had a job too but it didn't bring much in and most of the time she had to pay the bills out of her own pocket. She didn't see Dimitry often during the week because of his football training schedule and her working 2 jobs. But when they got together on the weekends they christened every surface in their small apartment. There was one night where they both had been so tired and caught in the heat of the moment they forgot about protection.

The next morning they realized what they had done but she said she had been on the pill and that discussion was over. But through the course of a month she had started having symptoms that showed signs of pregnancy. It had been a rough Saturday morning for Joslin who had been throwing up all morning. Dimitrty was on the bed holding her in his arms lazily tracing patterns on her leg.

"Hey Baby" he said softly," Do you think you might maybe.. I mean... maybe you're you know umm pregnant?"

Joslin sighed inwardly. She had felt she might have been and now she could feel those pregnancy test she bought nagging her in the back of her mind. She looked down and grabbed his hands interlacing her fingers with his.

" Would it be so bad if I was?" She had always imagined having a family with him. This wasn't perfect timing but she had all she needed with him.

Dimitry smirked at her."Nah. We'd have the coolest kid. With our looks and confidence they would be unstoppable."

She cracked a smile and laughed." Looks and confidence aren't everything you know" Joslin said as she giggled.

He said nothing and just tickled her. Soon it was time to go their separate ways. Joslin was in the bathroom staring at the pregnancy test in her hand.

POSITIVE

It felt like an hours before she rushed out of the bathroom straight into Dimitrys arms. He held her as she cried. She looked up at him and slowly showed him the test. He stood in shock. He was going to be a dad. Joslin looked at him in anticipation.

" We're gonna be parents babe!" he wiped the tears from her face and hugged her close. "I'm gonna be a dad!".They stayed in comfortable silence until Joslin said,

"Don't you have to be at practice?"

" I kinda have a family now so everything else can wait"

" I kinda have a family now so everything else can wait"

Family his ass. It turned out that a certain cheerleader couldn't wait. During his "extra practice" time he was dicking down a girl and got her knocked up. Her name was Candy and she had perfect blonde hair, blue eyes and a lean body. She had hated that Barbie from the start when she started feeling up her man on campus. When Dimitry confessed about seeing Candy she didn't know how to react. Sure punching him in the face would've been nice but she took the lower road and kicked him in the balls. Maybe it would teach him not to stick his dick where it didn't belong.

Oh YES, they were over but she didn't want a fatherless child. As much as she didn't want his cheating ass around she felt he needed to be there for THEIR child. Dimitry had other plans though... plans that involved Candy. For 5 years ...5 years they had been together and now it was all gone. he packed up and left to go live with Candy somewhere in Brooklyn leaving her and their unborn child to fend for themselves.

He called frequently throughout her pregnancy but it always was awkward and filled with tension. Her parents called once during her pregnancy just to tell her off on how they knew they were right. She didn't have many friends so it was just her and the baby. There wasn't a baby shower. There wasn't shopping for baby clothes and other baby needs because she worked 2 jobs. She dropped out of college to provide for herself and the baby.

It all hit her when she started going into labor and when she got to the hospital she realized she had no one to call friend or family. She was only fighting for her little baby. And that was enough. Mercedes Aaliyah Jones. After Mercedes was born Joslin tried her best to provide for her but times got rough and on Mercedes 4th birthday they were evicted from their apartment. Having nowhere to go Joslin took some of their clothes and Mercedes favorite toy tossed them in a bag and left. They were now scavengers moving from place to place looking for any food ,old or new, and any place to sleep.

End of Flashback

Someone poking her side interrupted Joslin's thoughts. She looked down at Mercedes. Mercedes had been poking her letting her know the coast was clear. They had done this enough for her to know when the police,or "bad people" as Joslin referred to them as, were gone. Joslin slowly opened the dumpster and looked around. There was no one there so she hopped out with Mercedes in tow as they went in search for a place to sleep.
