Pregnant and feeling more tired than before, she falls asleep at the park. Someone started complaining that he wanted her seat.
She hadn’t seen Lucille in a while but when she dropped by her house she realized Lucille was still angry at her for being pregnant.
She feels more alone than ever and has no one whom she can ask advice.
She stops by to see Billy, the baby’s father, but when she lays down to sleep in his bed he tells her to leave!
How humiliating to be thrown out in the middle of the night barefoot and pregnant.
She does the only thing she knows to do, she walks around and looks for seeds so she can feed herself.
Finally she gave birth to a healthy boy she named Ashlar.
Since the ground is warm she lays him down while she tends her fruits and vegetables.
She brings the baby with her in the park where she freshens up a little.
She brings the baby to see Lucille hoping Lucille will be nicer after seeing him. But she’s as mean as before if not meaner.
She catches butterflies and bugs and sells them to a scientist.
She still finds time to fish to use it as fertilizers.
She doesn’t have much time to even think of herself anymore…
