Lela

Man what am I going to do, I can't be pregnant. Jerrica is going to kill me. Oh well there is not much I can do about me now. I have to pack and getting ready to leave. Well I pack my things. Man I wish that Jasmine and Justine would get home from school soon so I can tell them about my suspension and pregnancy. Justine and Jasmine walk through the door. "Lela!" Jasmine called, "how did it go?" "Well what do you want first, the bad news, or the bad news." Justine asked, "What is the bad news?" I turned my back to the girls so that I wouldn't have to see their faces. "I am pregnant," I said lightly. "I also have to leave and go back home. I have two days to leave."

"Oh know!" exclaimed Jasmine, "what are you going to tell your parents?"

"I don't know. Jerrica is going to kill me when I get home." I said softly.

"Jerrica, I thought you said Jerrica was just someone you know, why would she kill you?" Justine asked.

I knew it was time I told my roommates the truth about me. I looked at them and said, "Truth is, I am a Starlight Girl, apart of the Starlight Foundation for foster girls and Jerrica runs the foundation. I have been there since I was three. Back then the foundation was run by Jerrica's parents Jacqui and Emmet. My bags are packed and I am ready to go."

"How are you going to get home, are you going to call Jerrica to come get you." Jasmine asked. I was shocked; I am not ready to tell Jerrica anything not just yet anyway. "No! I will find another way to get home." Justine spoke up, "I can take you, I don't have class, and we can leave now if you like." "Are you really going to take me home?" I asked.

I left with Justine and went home. I didn't talk just stare out the window. When we arrived at the Starlight Mansion I put my things in the servants' quarters, so that no one sees my things. "Bye Justine thanks for the ride!" I waved as Justine drove away.

I walked up to the door of the mansion and opened it. I walked inside, I felt like retreating but before I could I saw Terri. She ran into my arms. "Welcome home!!" she cried. "Where is Jerrica?" I asked. Terri told me that she will be home soon. For a moment I thought I was going to throw up. I ran upstairs to the bathroom. I have had a bad case of morning sickness. I don't know why the call it morning sickness it lasts all day and night. Suddenly there is a knock at the door. "Lela." I heard Jerrica call, "Open the door and let me in."
