My whole life I haven’t been the nicest, but now I have a baby coming on the way. It won’t have a father in its life. So I have to be better, for my baby. I am twenty three years of age, and my name is Anahi. I need to be better though. I started off by stoping to drink, I’m supposed to anyway. And no more Coffee.

Now I will go shopping end my day, as I started to walk I realized, how will I provide for my child? I needed to go back to school. I was in luck because I had stopped going to school a couple weeks back, but I didn’t email. I can just say I got sick. I was still living in my dorm. I walked by a man, he was the babies father and my roommate. He had been gone for a while.

I only was a good cook for special times, this felt like one. When he came home the first thing he did was kiss me. We sat on the couch and I told him that I was pregnant. Then He said “ then we need to get married.”

But I wouldn’t do that because I was pregnant, I told him that we didn’t love each other so we shouldn’t. Then he said he thing “You are the mother of my child. Of course I love you. But even if we aren’t together, I still want to be part of their life.”

I couldn’t fight with him on this. Even if I felt like I should do this alone, it’s his kid too.

“Ok” I said finally. Later on I popped and it was noticeable. My childhood was harsh, that might be why I’m horrible. But not anymore, the baby will make me better. Threw this time in my life i will become a better person. So my child won’t suffer how I did. I broke out in tears thinking about my childhood. Moving to America with my parents was suppose to make my life better. But they took me away from my parents only to have plastic as blankets. And never seeing them again.

But threw the time they had me with them. They taught me to fight, so that’s what I did. It was time to find them for my child, for that little girl crying herself to sleep every night, and for her parents who wanted a better life for her. So I found them. And never had to be pulled away from them again. There had been many tears threw this journey. I was ready for what would come
