"Oh if she thinks she's getting away with this she's so wrong!" Katy said to herself as she exited the elevator on their floor.
Katy walked into the apartment with her mid set on one thing, grounding Maya.
"Aha!" She said as she saw Maya's bag on the floor. "Gotcha."
"Maya! I know you're here!" Katy yelled angrily.
She stalked down the hall to Maya's room.
Maya wasn't inside, but there was only one door closed off, the bathroom.
"Maya! Maya Penelope Hart you open this door right now!" Katy pounded on it.
She didn't know why Maya was refusing.
She went to pound again but heard the faint cry of Maya coming from inside.
"Maya? Baby Girl? What's wrong?" She said more calmly.
Maya just continued to cry.
"Maya, please open the door?" Katy cooed.
There was a click and then a crying Maya standing there.
"Baby Girl!" Katy sighed wrapping Maya in a tight hug as Maya cried a little harder.
"It's gonna be okayy Maya." Katy cooed not knowing what she was trying to make okayy.
"Nnnoo it's not." Maya said in between sobs. "I mmesssed up!"
Maya buried her face inter her moms shoulder. Maya was glad she was short for reasons like this.
Katy patted the back of her hair and rubbed her back just shhshing Maya. She didn't realize what could Maya have done to make her so upset.
Maya was such a proud girl, she never felt regret in anything she did.
The last time Maya cried this hard was that night she came home from that party telling her mom about Lucas. That was the only time… well, except for when Maya was little and her father left. Maya cried for weeks. All she wanted was her daddy to pick her up from school and play with her and love her, but he wasn't there anymore. Maya couldn't ever understand why.
As Maya continued to cry into Katy's shoulder Katy didn't know when, but she looked at the scene around her. There was a ripped open box on the floor. She couldn't see what it said or what was on it, but it was pink. She looked around to see Maya's phone on a timer screen, and a white stick on the counter.
Katy might have stopped breathing right then.
"Oh Maya!" She sighed heavily causing Maya to whimper more.
"It's gonna be okayy, I promise." Katy said with what she hoped sounded like confidence.
In reality she didn't know what was running through her brain right now. Her baby girl was gonna have a baby girl or boy. Katy didn't know what to think or feel. Maya's 15, almost 16, having a baby, what could possibly go wrong?
