Jimmy's POV
Me and Hazel had been living happily with our baby for 2 weeks when Manny called me and asked me to meet her at the Dot. I knew it was about the night we had hooked up, but that as three months ago.
Jimmy: I'm going out to the Dot, do you want anything?
Hazel: A burger and fries with a vanilla shake.
Jimmy: Okay I'll be back in no more than a hour.
Hazel: See you then.
I walked out knowing that the news she had wasn't going to be good.
Jimmy: Hey Manny.
Manny: For the last month, I've been thinking about how I was going to tell you this. Then finally I decided to just come out and tell you plan and simple that, I'm going to have your baby.
Jimmy: And you've known this for a month.
Manny: Yeah.
Jimmy: Do your parents know.
Manny: No just you and Emma.
Jimmy: Well what are you going to do?
Manny: I really don't know but, I'm going to have my baby and I'm going to keep her. I promised my Mom I would be home by 4 so I have to go.
Jimmy: We'll talk later.
Manny: Okay
I had to tell Hazel ASAP, but I just didn't know how.
Hazel: Jimmy I have something I really want to tell you. Alexia has a sister, her name is Nikki Alisa Matthews, and she's living with her father, she's 4 years old and their coming over tonight.
I was really mad, what I had to say was no better, but at least I had just found out.
Jimmy: I have two things to tell you, I don't think we should be together anymore, and Manny's going to have a baby.
Hazel: What does that have to do with us? And why are you leaving.
Jimmy: Manny's baby is also mine and she needs me more than you, and if we can't tell each other things like this we cant tell each other anything.
I knew Manny needed me more, she had been through so much, the only thing she needed from me know was for me not to be there for my child. I knew this was the thing to do
Hazel's POV
I can't believe he was leaving, he was walking out on me and our baby.
Hazel: So your leaving us?
Jimmy: I'm still going to come on the weekends to see my baby girl, I'm just leaving you.
I watched him leave money on the dresser for two months rent and grocery. I had to make another hard decision.
Hazel: Take her with you.
Jimmy: Take Alexia, With me?
Hazel: Yeah, she needs a mother and father.
Jimmy: Why weren't you thinking of that when you gave Nikki to her father?
Hazel: Because he did the same thing your doing now, he left my for another girl.
Jimmy: Well I'll take her with me, but you have to sign over your rights to Manny.
Hazel: If that's what I have to do to let my daughter have a mother and father, then that's what I'll do
Jimmy: Lets go to the social service building.
Hazel: Let's go then.
I packed Alexia's things and put them into Jimmy's car. We drove in silence, I signed the papers in silence, cried in silence, and went to my empty apartment in silence. Then in silence I stood on the fire escape with Alexia's blanket, and jumped all in silence.
