hours.
I just mgured he was with his friends or whatever. I didn’t
need the car, because I was at work, anyway. You know?
It didn’t really dawn on me that he would be with
somebody else, because I thought he loved me.
ͳen I found out I was pregnant. I didn’t know what to
do.
So I freaked the fuck out.
ͳis whole pregnancy thing made me feel like such a
loser. I felt so stupid. I still had all these dreams and goals
for myself that I wanted to accomplish, and here I was
knocked up by this broke-ass loser.
It made me really look at the big picture. I was just
barely living in this little studio apartment. Titus was living
with his mama. Titus didn’t even have a car or a job. He just
came on a cruise with $50 on him. How are we going to
raise a kid? I only make $400 a week at my job, and then
with the Bar Mitzvahs, I’m clearing $2500 a month. ͳat’s
not enough to raise a kid.
I can’t have no baby by this man. I can’t even be with
him. I don’t even like him anymore.
When I first told him, he wanted the baby.
Titus: “Yeah, that’s right. That’s mine.”Tiffany: “What the fuck are you talking about? How
we gonna pay for this? You ain’t got no job!”Titus: “It’s all right, baby, that’s why they got welfare.
