I am now going into the later part of my twenties. I have a little girl that I have been raising alone. Her father blamed me for the dissolution of our relationship. It had nothing to do with his excessive drinking. It had nothing to do with his infidelity. It had nothing to do with him staying out all night or sometimes being gone for days at a time. I was supposed to just stick it out and let him get it all out of his system and wait for him to be ready to settle down. I'm sure he would've settled down eventually, right?

Another dream taking me back to my past. I move the covers off of me and I swing my legs to the side of the bed.

Chapter 1: Found Her The last four years I kept her safe. She has no idea who I am. Four years ago I accidentally bumped into her on the busy New York City sidewalk. I had my hood up because, well the sun would give me away. She was rushing and looking down at her phone not paying attention. Bumping into her I caught a flash of us. It was quick. She was next to me, looking at me lovingly. She was wearing a crown on her top of her head. Resting on her beautiful auburn hair.
