So this story took a change since yesterday ;) the original plan to have the characters wealthy and privileged just didn't fit well with where I want the story to go :D Nevertheless, I home you enjoy it 3 thanks for reading!
Character Introduction:

Oh boy, where do I even begin? Okay, let's start with my name... Danika. Danika is my name, but I go by Danny. I guess you can say I've had quite an eventful life already. I'm 27 years old with a beautiful 5-year-old daughter named Brynn. She is the light of my life; my everything. My pregnancy was not planned, if I'm being honest. It was a result of one too many glasses of wine, and a gas station condom. But after much debate, my then boyfriend and I decided to keep her, and that could not have been a better choice. For me at least. Brynn's father struck gold with stocks. He was one of those lawyers you see, wearing those fancy suits, sitting in that big office. Yet as if he wasn't already well off, his stock game took a turn for the better, and he became a millionaire. Keeping Brynn didn't seem like such a big deal. We had been together for 3 years then, both had Ivy League education, him graduating from Yale Law School, and me from Columbia with a degree in English, we had a beautiful condo in Central Park West... she would have an amazing life.
Though about a year after she was born, Mr. Fancy Lawyer decided that with all the money and glam that his life had, being tied down with a kid was not what he wanted. I guess I should've seen the warning signs, such as him not wanting to put a ring on my finger, or the constant Instagram posts of him "celebrating the winning of a case" with some blonde making duck faces too close to him for comfort. Well I came home one day, and found all of his stuff gone. A note was taped to the door explaining how he just simply couldn't keep pretending to be happy, how he was so so sorry.. how he would continue to pay alimony in big numbers to insure we could keep living in this upscale apartment. I felt sick; I wanted nothing... NOTHING of his.
That same day, I packed our stuff, took my baby girl, and moved in with my two sisters, twins Mattea and Jasmine, into an apartment in Brooklyn. They are 25 and absolutely beautiful people.. so inseparable, yet so different in many ways. Mattea is a party girl, who's never had a serious relationship. She is young and always felt that life is too short to be tied down. She loved her job at Hooters and we were happy as long as she was. Jasmin is the mature one. She got herself a good job at the Wall Street Journal, had savings.. had it all together. She is always taking charge, making sure everything in the household is running. With my income as a flight attendant, and hers, we all managed to get by. Then, she was laid off unexpectedly... and since then, we've been financially screwed. We have all been working so hard; Mattea taking 12 hour shifts at Hooters 6 days a week, me working 14 hour shifts in the air, yet still trying to make time for my baby girl, and Jasmine has been a "stay at home aunt" to Brynn, and playing the stock market. We don't understand it, but she does, and we trust her that she doesn't make us more broke. Life is difficult for us, but we are all trying are damn hardest.
Little did any of us know just how much our lives were about to change.
So sorry it's short! But I've never been good with introductions... I love just getting into the story and have little patience for the crap beforehand :D anyways, next chapters will be longer, I promise! I don't own anything other than the characters introduced above ;) please read and review. I'm 100% new to writing, so please go easy! Thanks so much for reading. It means the world!
