Chapter Two
"Mom…where exactly are we going, this place doesn't look like somewhere we would live."
My mother didn't even glance my way instead she gripped the steering wheel even harder and twisted her lip real funny. Of course she's going to flat out ignore me! This means that this whole new house thing is going to be bad!
"Mom! Julie could you please answer me!" I said angry that she would just flat out ignore me.
"Kaitlin, don't call me Julie it makes me feel….old"
"Maybe because you are…" I said this very quietly and under my breathe sure that my mother wouldn't be able to hear me.
"Were….were here" She said pointing to what looked like a trailer, because guess what it was! I looked at it disgusted, was this some kind of sick joke?
"Mom…you've got to be kidding…right? We don't actually live in a trailer, do we?" I asked concerned.
"Well….The thing with Caleb is….is that he kind of left us without any money so…this is our home…temporarily!" she looked at me and smiled. "Well come on Kate, I'll grab your stuff and get you moved in" she hopped out of the car and went to the trunk to grab my stuff.
"Mom…."
"Yes honey" My mother walked up next to me with my luggage in her hands.
"I…I have to tell you something when we get inside…ok" I have to tell her at some point in time, she's bound to find out sometime.
"Of course you can sweetheart, now come on In I don't want our creepy neighbors to stare at us" She pushed from behind into the house and set the suitcase down in the kitchen. "I'll have to show you how to make your bed" my mother said walking over to the couch.
"M-mom before you do that I….I think I need to talk, maybe you should sit down" I motion her to sit down on the couch and she does so looking concerned.
"Kaitlin honey what's going on?? I knew something was wrong when you came home…what is it? Money, Drugs, abusive boyfriend? Those are things that can be fixed honey" my mother was about to get up and start making phone calls until I pushed her back down.
"Mom, it's not that I'm……."
"Honey come on I don't have all day! What is it?"
"I'm Pregnant! Mom ok!" I shouted out with rage. I sat down on the couch and cryed into my hands.
"Oh Kaitlin…..what boy did this to you?" she got up ready to call a cab so she could to my school and beat up the boy who knocked me up.
"Mom…it wasn't his fault it's mine….i could have stopped it"
"Kaitlin honey why in the world at your age would you be doing stuff like that? Well we need to get this fixed!!"
"NO! Anyway I think I'm to far along for that now"
"How far along are you??"
"Almost six months!"
