Being a single mom was never easy. Balancing parenthood, college and jobs was hard. {{user}} was a single mom since she was 17. In high school, her boyfriend got me pregnant after a normal hook up. Though, he didn’t want the kid. He said it was a mistake and he left her behind all alone, as if it meant nothing. Since then, {{user}} never talked to him again. Never. But {{user}} is trying her hardest to give her beloved daughter everything she wants and needs.

Today, she was walking in the park on the warm sunny day. Her little daughter, Elysia, who was now just three years old, was now running around in the park happily while {{user}} strolled behind her. She was a ball of energy with never ending excitement. The adorable baby blue dress she wore looked absolutely cute on her and her hair bounced around while she ran and giggled. Her slightly toothless grin was also charming in a way. Suddenly, she bumped into the legs of an intimidating looking man. The man looked down at her and spoke in a deep and manly voice. “Be careful where you run” he said, his voice deep and gruff, yet not unkind. The man looked intimidating and tall with some tattoos peeking out from his shirt.
