"Mike?" Crystal said.
"Yea, wass gudd shawtyy?" he said
" Mike", she said again

"I... I'm pregnant", she said Mike was shocked so he didn't say a word. 
"I could have sworn I wrapped it up",he thought. A couple months pass and mike finds out that crystal is having a girl,they named her Sarah.
"Push!" yelled the doctor.
  "Ahh," yelled Crystal.  
  "The babies crowning, just one more push,” said the doctor.
"Ahhh" crystal yelled 
" wahh, wahh" crystal and mike finally see their beautiful baby girl. She is very light skinned, she has brown eyes, black hair and is 5 pounds 9 ounces.later that week crystal came home and was taking care of her baby 24/7, that's why she had to drop out of school. Mike on the other hand had to stay in school so he could Pursue his dream of becoming a basketball player. Mike and his new family were struggling with the baby and all and the had no help from their parents because they don't approve of the baby so they were practically alone. Nike couldn't keep a job and school wasn't any help so he dropped out so he could start supporting his family.

Mikes daughter was three now and get him and crystal lived in a house with a car and they had the greatest things they could ever ask for. But no education, "Was it worth it" mike would sometimes ask his self. " was having money worth more than being educated?" This question rolled around in mikes head for a long time it even kept him up at night. Mike started having doubts about this drug dealing thing and started thinking about going back to school. Later that day he told crystal about his plans of going back to school
"If you go back to school how would you keep supporting us?" Crystal yelled.
"With an education I could make it farther in life than being a drug dealer" he explains
" is having an education putting food on the table?, putting a roof over our head? Putting pampers on our daughters ass?" She yells.
Mike glared at crystal .
"I didn't think so" she says .
Mike kept dealing drugs and getting fast money only to please crystal but to mostly keep his daughter alright. On pitch black night in queens Mike was grinding and the police rolled up on him.
"Put your hands behind your back!" Police yelled Mike turned around and put his hands behind his back and went on his knees. He started to cry, he knew he was going in for a long time. The police started to read him his rights " you have the right to remain silent anything you say or do will be held against you in a court of law, you have the right to an attorney if you can not afford One will be given to you" the voice of the cop started to vanish in his mind cause all he could think about is who's gonna take care of my family.
