Hey guys!!!
Thanks for all of those that directly contacted me to give me such wonderful review, I'm beyond thrilled that many ate enjoying this chapter series of my life. So with that said let's just jump right into Chapter 7....
On the day I was returning home I felt like running away lol but I didn't, I was tired of running everytime I had a problem. On the plane I reflected on my amazing summer and unfortunately it came to a end. Lucky for me I took the night flight and just drifted into a nice restful sleep. When I arrived mom and Edison picked me up at the airport and we drove to our nearest walgreen and went in and bought a vanilla cappuccino then continued on home. Once there mom went to bed and left Edison and I awake and we spoke and I decided to give him another chance but I cut the engagement off. I showered and went to bed where we had sex til the sunrised. As time went on I found out he had cheated on me when I went to New York and I was not thrilled but already had a feeling about it and continued the relationship. I decided I wanted to go back to school and signed up for night classes that helped me get credits faster and graduate high school sooner. I lasted in the school a couple months and dropped out due to teachers missing classes and having to wait 2 hours for the next class. Time went by and one day I received a call from my dad and he was crying and he said he had no one their helping him and he was lonely etc. I knew this was true because he wasn't the kindest man on earth and my sister's had stopped visiting him. I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to bond with my daddy and also a way I can be near my sister's and get close with them. I spoke to my mom and she agreed to send me to live with him, at this point I was turning 17 years old. I was excited but Edison was not, but I really didn't care. We decided to try to work things out for a long distance relationship but deep down I knew that it wouldn't work or better yet I knew that I didn't want it to work, it was my time to grow and work on me. Soon my plane ticket was bought and I left back to New York. Mom had given me money to take cab to my dad's house when I arrived and I did that. When I arrived I saw my brother as soon as I got off and I ran to him. He had a girlfriend named Melanie, and she didn't look to thrilled to see a girl jump on her man but that didn't stop me from giving her the glare of death. My brother then introduced us but I made up my mind, I didn't like her. He helped me bring my luggage up to dad's house. I was very happy to see dad and he was happy too!!! He showed me my room and I was happy I was going to have my own room. It was pretty big and I liked it. He came in and told me house rules and that the next day we would go on and buy me new sheets and comforter for my bed and some stuff to personalize my room, and boy was I excited. That night we ate chinese food and watched movies. The following day we went to Third Avenue and I bought myself a nice bed in a bag, I can't even tell you the color it's been so long since. We next went into a store and I bought candles and a plate to put my jewelry on it. We then went into a discount store where he let me choose my towels, body wash, lotion and some pajamas. Things were going so good but I wish it lasted. Days passed and I was obligated to cook 3 meals a day, clean the bathroom daily, wash clothes every other day and scrubbing the floors on my hands and knees. When I was done I would tell dad I was going to my sister's house that lived on the other side of the projects. I swear I wouldn't be there a hour and he would call for me to go back home. I was starting to see that living with my dad was the worst idea I've ever had, he never needed company he needed a maid and I was stupid enough to fall for it. The following week I was at my sister Lhasa house and he calls for me to go home after a half hour of arriving and my site told me to tell him I'll be there soon, but the response I got was to go to get my things and move in with my sister. Omg I was heartbroken to say the least and for the first time in my life I felt stranded. I asked my sister if I could stay with her because dad kicked me out, and all I got from her was a yes and I told u so! She went over with me and helped me pack up my things, I then left my dad's house without a word, regretting leaving my home in Puerto Rico to then being homeless. I stood with my sister for a little less than a year and in that time I became single Edison and I was not working out and months after I met someone that would leave a mark in my life forever!!!
My thoughts:
As I re-read this chapter I see how impulsive I was and smh but I also can't believe my dad did that to me, but then again this is the same person that never protested giving me up as a baby. My sister Lhasa always been there for me when I needed her the most, and in that year we became close. My life always been a damn roller-coaster but through it all I learned life lessons from it. So when you feel like giving up just know that things get better with time.
I hope you guys enjoyed Chapter 7, nothing really interesting happened Chapter 8 should be more intense. Thanks for reading and stay tuned for Chapter 8: Gary coming in a little while as today I'll be posting 2 chapters since yesterday I didn't post a chapter due to tiredness. Hey being a mom to 5 is alot of work lol...X0x0Xox0X
