Life has been one cruel letdown after another, but I refuse to let it break my spirit. This time, this little bean and I will make a life for ourselves and forget all our troubles. Despite losing my job to the jerk who knocked me up, I managed to turn my passion into a career by going independent.

Despite losing my job to the jerk who knocked me up, I managed to turn my passion into a career by going independent. My grandfather’s house was finally sold, giving me the padded cushion that I needed to secure a great living for this little one. Ms. Hoffman…you’re not having one little boy…you’re having two. The best night of my life ended with the sun coming up and the sheets cold. She ran away, and I knew I should have bolted the doors before we even hit the mattress somehow. I wish we’d have exchanged numbers or something. Now, there was no way to find this woman in a city of millions where I wasn’t even familiar with anyone or had any connections. Still, there was no way I’d give up because she was mine. less

I made a big mistake. There’s no taking it back, but I wish I could. I kissed Colter North, my crush, my former friend, and he pushed me away. Then he sent me home while he returned to his date, breaking my heart, and I don’t know if I’ll ever recover. Then he had to come back into my life, refusing to leave and taking charge like we were still friends. She ruined my plans for us. One kiss and my future went out the window. That girl couldn’t even behave for one night... moreI made a big mistake. There’s no taking it back, but I wish I could. I kissed Colter North, my crush, my former friend, and he pushed me away.

Unfortunately, I had responsibilities, goals, and a lot to accomplish in a short time if we were to have a real future together. less
