Why are you in my life?, chapter 1
New York. Yup, thats were I live. Well so far I know I haven't made a good inpression but I really don't care. So my names Ashlee Williams. I'm a 19 year old punk who most everyone hates. I don't care though. I live in A cruddy apartment in downtown Berkley with my daughter, Yes you heard me correct my daughter. She's 4 months, her faggot ass father left when she was born. She looks just like me, Black hair and Brown eyes. Although she has her fathers nose. Right now, I'm sitting in my living room watching TV, rocking her to sleep. She fussed for a minute as I stuck the bottle in her mouth but calmed down.
"Shhhh... Its okay Emma... Shhh, Mommys here." I whispered. I flipped the channle to MTV and TRL was on. "Ladies and gents... Green day!" The chick on the screen said. Green day was my favorite band. They walked out and started talking. Finally Emma fell asleep. I got up and took her to her room. Her room wasn't anything special. It was painted white, The carpet was a beige, I had a crib with Pink blankets, a couple of diapers, and toys scattered across the room. I set her gently in her crib and covered her up. I walked back out and realized how cold it was. I turned on the heat and sat back down.
My eyes started to droop and I fell asleep. *Ring! Ring! * I woke up to my phone ringing. I got up, stretched my arms, and walked to my phone. It was my friend Riverz. I picked it up.
"Hello?"
"Hey Ash."
"Hey Riv, Whats up?"
"Nothin' I'm down at work and I need you to come in."
"But I have Emma!"
"We really need you!"
"Umm alright, I'll be in, in about an hour."
"Alright bye."
"Bye."
I hung up the phone and walked back into Emma's room. I picked her up and got her dressed in a black sweatshirt and black pants. Yeah, she's taking after her mom. I grabbed her stroller and walked out. I walked to my friends house and knocked on the door. "Oh hey Ash." My friend Elle said. "Hey Ell can you watch Emma for me, I have to go to work." I explained. "oh sure." She said taking Emma. "Thanks!" I said running out of the place. I looked at my watch and realized I only had five minutes to get there. I ran faster, almost running into people, Until I finally did.
"Oomph!" I groaned falling to the ground. I looked up and saw a body standing over me. "Oh shit! I'm sorry!" a familier voice said. A hand was extended out and I grabbed it. He pulled me up. "No, I'm sorry, I wasn't watching were I was going." I said. "Well its okay, My names Mike by the way." he said. I looked up at him and my mouth dropped. "Uh Mike Dirnt?" I stuttered. "You got it." He said smiling. "Oh my god." I said. "Ha, So whats your name?" He asked. "Ashlee Williams." I said. "Oh, well Ashlee where were you off to in such a hurry?" He asked. We started to walk.
"To work, I had to drop off my daughter real fast." I said. "You have a daughter? You look to young to have kids." He said. "Yeah, her names Emma." I said. "Cute name, I have a daughter too, Estelle." He said. "Yeah? How old?" I asked. "Oh she's two." He said. "oh wow, I didn't know that." I said. "Yeah not alot of people no about her, How olds your little one?" He asked. "4 months." I said. "She's still a baby baby." He said. "Yeah.." My voice trailed. "So wheres her dad?" He asked. "Oh he left when she was born." I sighed.
"Oh, I'm sorry." He said again. "Its cool." I said. "Heres my work." I said as we approached the building I worked at. "Okay, Hey Ashlee, Maybe we can go out sometime." he offered. "I'd like that, Heres my number." I said jotting it down. "Cool, I'll call you." He said. "Okay Bye." I said waving as he walked off. He waved back smiling.
