Chapter 2
After we got home from the hospital, my brother Bernard, who is younger than me by three months, asked me if everything was okay. Upon seeing my troubled expression, I just brushed him off by saying everything was okay and went to my room.
I cried and laughed at the same time. I couldn't believe how stupid I was. How am I going to take care of a baby whilst I'm still in high school?
I called Jane, my best friend—or ex-best friend—and it didn't go through. Why, why, why isn't she answering my calls? How could she do this to me?
...Wait. But I vaguely remember telling him to get off me. Is that why I can't get a hold of the both of them?
I was abused. I fell to the floor, feeling lethargic after the realization, and cried my heart out. I didn't laugh this time.
"I'm sorry, Henry. I really am," I said while crying.
But I had made up my mind that I didn't want to get an abortion. It was my baby, after all. I gathered all my courage and went to talk to my parents in the living room.
To my surprise, my mom had prepared a feast. I wondered if there was a special occasion, but she told me that a pregnant lady shouldn't starve. The tears I was holding in just poured, and my mom and dad hugged me.
Bernard was mad at me for getting pregnant at sixteen. I guess my parents told him the whole story. I tried to talk to him and explain things to him, but he looked at me with disappointment and walked out on me.
My parents told me to give him time, so I sat down to have dinner. But when I ate the meat, I immediately felt like vomiting—and I did.
After I came out of the bathroom with my mom, she told me that I didn't have to worry and that she and my dad would be by my side every step of the way, because they knew I wouldn't even consider the idea of getting an abortion.
I was so grateful that they understood me, and I began to tear up again. My mom hugged me and reminded me that school would be starting tomorrow, so I had to brace myself.
