Hi all just a quick note from me. I actually wrote this story for a Bible Studies assignment discussing abortion. Sorry about the short chapters (you know what my writings like) but since the whole story's already written out I can update regularly. Some of the things won't be exactly to the story of the game, so keep an open mind!
I hope you like it J
Rinoa
Endless tears streamed down her face, I wish I knew how to make them stop, her cheeks were streaked with them and her bottom lip quivered ever so slightly. Pausing she took a shallow breath and continued, shaking her head and mumbling words I could not quite make out.
I was in total shock. I had never seen her like this, so full of raw emotions. Quistis is my best friend; I don't know where I'd be without her, she is one of those independent, strong willed, ambitious people, and crying wasn't a very common event. So as you can imagine I was quite taken back when she turned up at my door tonight, puffy eyes and blotchy faced. I proceeded to pass her another tissue. She was calming down now, although her breath was still shaking. I decided I was going to let her explain, because she would know when she was ready.
"I'm pregnant," she stuttered finally when she was able to talk. It took a while for those first words to sink in.
"W-what do you mean?" I asked in utter astonishment. Her eyes met mine, and it seems as if they were searching; for support and answers.
"I'm sorry, I mean…how?"
She swallowed before proceeding. "You know that End of New Year's party?" I nodded, "Well things with me and Irvine kind of got…out of hand."
"So…Irvine's the father?" I affirmed.
"The one and only," she tried to smile then but her mouth seemed to tremble with the effort, as though it was such an impossible task. Instead she let out a moan, "How am I going to tell him Rinoa?" she put her head in her hands.
You see everyone loves Irvine; was one of those guys who had it all; talented, mature, attractive, good sense of humor, the life of a party and was friendly to all. Quistis was the same, beautiful, friendly, career driven, and a good sense of morals. Except on that night, she normally steered well clear of any kind of alcohol but just before Christmas her boyfriend, Alistair who she'd been going steady with for 2 years just turns around and dumps her. That night all Quistis was looking for was a good time, but looking at it now it seems as if she got more then she bargained for.
