Chapter 6

                                    

                                          
The next few days went by fast. Unfortunately for me I had to go back to school. Which sucked for me. I haven't stepped inside a school in two years.
                          
What made my parents decide to being me back now, I'll never know. I know I could have fought being eighteen and all but Kenzie needed to be around her grandparents. So I gave in and moved back home knowing I was making a mistake.
                          
I didn't hear from Noah at all over the weekend. I didn't really expect to either. I don't know maybe I was just...
                          
Hoping.
                          
It is his daughter, after all. I kinda thought it would dawn on him. 'Oh, that's my baby. I need to get to know her. Be a father to her.' But no.
                          
It's okay between my parents, Jonah and me. She'll never have to know what neglect is or wonder what love is because the way we dote over her. She'll know. I know I still have to deal with the 'daddy doesn't want me' part. I don't know what I'm going to do about that.
                          
I just hate it.
                          
I got up, getting ready for school with Kenzie trailing behind me the whole entire time. She's my little shadow.
                          
We went down for breakfast. I made both of us a bowl of cereal.
                          
"Momma what ool?" she asks me, curiously.
                          
"School." I correct her. "Well, it's this big building where you learn stuff." I tell her. Then an idea pops into my head. "How about we talk Nana into taking me to school so you can see?" I ask her. She nods happily, turning to mom.
                          
"Nana pwease." she says, giving mom her no-one-can-resist-this-puppy-face. Mom instantly cracks smiling.
                          
"Of course sweetie." mom says. We finish our breakfast then we head out.
                          
When we get there early, I take Kenzie out of the car and take her inside with mom beside us. On our way to the office I show Kenzie what a classroom is, what lockers are, and what a teacher is. When we reach the office we go inside and get my schedule. I take mom and Kenzie back outside so they can leave.
                          
"Momma." Kenzie says, pulling me to a stop.
                          
"Yeah pumpkin?" I ask her, looking down. She looks up at me worriedly.
                          
"You okay here?" she asks me, concerned. I giggle and squat down to her level. I take both of her hands in mine.
                          
"Yeah baby, I'll be fine." I tell her.
                          
"I don't wike it." she tells me.
                          
"Neither do I pumpkin, but I'll be fine. I promise." I tell her.
                          
"Nana, tell momma she can't stay." she huffs, looking up at mom.
                          
"She has to sweetie. She only has to stay here half of the day then she gets to come home to you, remember." mom tells her. We've already told her I won't be able to spend all day with her like I've always done. She threw a fit at first but calmed down once she found out she got to spend the day with mom at the park.
                          
We finally get her into the car with more convincing that I'll be fine. Silly little girl.
                          
As I'm watching them leave some girl walks up to me and looks at me in disgust.
                          
"So you're the new school whore?" she sneers at me. "Just stay away from my man." she huffs. I cock an eyebrow, amused but I don't say anything. "How old are you, seventeen? Who has a child at fifteen?" she sneers. I just shrug and walk away.
                          
I was sixteen thank you very much! I'm not a whore. I've had sex one time that resulted in her and I'm not ashamed of her. I know who the father is. So everyone can kiss my ass. I don't care what they say about me. I'm proud that I have Kenzie.
