Chapter 4

It had been two months since the "incident," I still wasnt speaking to Jay. I threw up again this morning, the fourth

morning in a row.

"I'm probably coming down with the flu" I thoughtto myself. I refused to let the fact that I was five weeks late, had morning sickness, and getting abit rounderget me down. I could be very naive when I wanted to be, but something inside of me kept reminding me that I really could be... pregnant.

I decided that I needed to wake up and smell the coffe, because I had to make a decision about what I was going to do soon, before it was too late.

I walked over to the drug store, and bought a home pregnancy test. On the way back home, I contemplated what I would do should I actually turn out to be pregnant.I just hoped that I wouldnt actually need to make those descisions...

As soon as I got home I ran straight to the bathroom and locked the door. I opened up the little package holding that fatefull stick that would determine the rest of my life. I took the test, set it on the counter and waited.

Needless to say, those were the longest five minutes of my life. but finally I heard the buzzing noise of the timer on my favorite watch, the one with Marilyn Monroe on it, which meant that it was time.

I made my way over to the counter, and picked up the stick. My jaw dropped when I saw the result. I was pregnant.
