My life hasn't always been easy. I was raised by my grandmother and my other siblings . My mom had abandon us to pursue her career as a backup singer for some big artist in the 90s. Funny thing is, she said that she'd come back for us. 22 years had pasted and I STILL believed that she would come racing through the door. My dad ? Ugh .. where do I begin? All I knew is that the man had 15 children with different baby mamas, so he probably was somewhere in jail for child support . " Nicoleeeee?!" My grandma called out to me . "Today is the big day, I'm so proud of you"! Today was the biggest day of my life!!!! In less than a couple of hours I will be graduating from Duke University. Lord knows I had prayed and dream of this day since those little career fairs in high school. I knew that God had a purpose for me and my purpose was to become a teacher. Who would've thought my career path would lead me to the love of my life .... Jordan Wells 🤒 boy .. was he to die for .. tall , muscular , chocolate skin ... juicy lips and a nice fade. I felt like the luckiest girl in the world with Jordan. He made sure I was straight 💰. We both were graduating together and for the first time I was happy. Both graduating with honors , same job offers , we were on a money making mission , TOGETHER.. I had finally found a man who loved me for all that I was and all that I was becoming . It's like we connected instantly. Jordan didn't know his father either. We both promised to not let our child grow up in a broken home like we did ... I was 7 months pregnant and the only thing left was marriage .. a bit out of order but knowing how me and Jordan " got down" it was expected 😏. " Nicole you're going to be late Jordans outside , don't keep that man waiting"! Grandma yelled . I put my cap and gown on and Rushed outside. As we drove off, Jordan said " Today's the day beautiful we start our journey together "😌 I smiled and kissed him . Finally we arrived late because he couldn't keep his hands to himself .😝 We were so close to not lining up I could've killed him . Before I knew it both of ours names were called. I could hear our families cheering for us , but honestly I wanted my mom , it was on this day I needed her the most .... Jordan could tell something was wrong and grabbed my hand , gosh where had he been all my lifeeeee! I smiled and continued walking. Just like that graduation was over 4 longggg years spent to not even have an hour long graduation lol but I didn't complain . Afterwards we all went to eat with our families . Of course him and I planned to
" celebrate " on our own , but that was for later . It was a little after noon and Jordan had promised his mom he would attend his little brothers championship game. He loved kids and I knew he was going to be a great father . I kissed him goodbye and told him to call me when he got there... a hour went by and I heard nothing from Jordan , however I wasn't worried because he sometimes was so forgetful .Lol that was just him I bet he would've lost his head if it wasn't attached to him. At the restaurant a breaking news report went back & forth on the tv and everyone forced their attention to the news . Before I could think I saw what had looked like Jordan's car ... split .... in half .... I knew it was Jordan's car because the license plate was 457-JOR .. before I could react I felt something running down my legs... My water broke ..... head spinning feeling like this was the end of a new beginning.... my grandmother screamed and cried begging someone to call 911 .. All I wanted was my Jordan , his mother had already been at the scene and they had pronounced him dead shortly after she arrived ... the only thing now was to make sure the baby made it . Coming 2 months early was not what I expected but I had to stay strong for the sake of our child .. the ambulance arrived and by that time I had passed out .. I remembered seeing Jordan and his exact words were " God has called me home, and I just had to enter the gates of Heaven, you and my son gonna make it"...............
NICOLEEEE... NICOLEEEEE !! Please wake up ! Please baby girl" .... My eyes slowly opened to my grandmas face as the contractions grew extremely painful , I could see my grandmother crying tears of sadness and joy . The doctors counted to 3 and I give one big push.... before I knew it I had given birth to a beautiful baby boy . Still torn from the lost of my boyfriend I just wanted it all to be a dream. The doctor came in and gave me some pain meds and I was sleep in a matter of seconds . 4 hours had went by and Jordan's mom and a strange man were in the delivery room .. I had seen the man in pictures with my mom in my grandmother's scrapbook , but I never questioned it. I felt uncomfortable with the man just looking at me and the baby. So I ask Jordan's mother who was the man ? she said in a calm voice ..... "this is Jordan's father "... my grandmother stormed out the room only to find out that the man standing beside me was the man from the photos ... he was my father .....Jordan was one of my brothers .......
