     before the girls got jealous and threw me and my baby out of their
          house.
          I was now homeless.
          The driver was nice to me and helped me find a room here and there. I
          eventually went back to where I worked. They took advantage of my
          situation—I worked just for a place to stay.
          After a while, the driver and I got too close. He was a kind person and
          was sorry for my situation. I got to meet his brother, and that’s when
          he let me know that the story I had been told wasn’t true. The driver
          actually lived with a woman who had two children for him.
          I cried forever.
          Because I had given him the “cookie” as a kind of payment for his
          kindness to me—thinking maybe we could be friends. Not knowing
          that the one time with him, the first time since my baby girl was born,
          I could become pregnant again so quickly.
          I wanted to die when I heard the truth about him—that he was living
          with a woman and had two other kids.
          This, you will realize, is the father of my only son. He meant well, but
          forgot he had a baby mother and two kids. I did not realize that the one
          time I spent with him would get me pregnant.
          Here is another example of my short stories. I love sharing them.
