It had been a week since me and Marcus had broken up. He already had a new girl friend and to be honest it made me sick. Literally. I had been throwing up every morning for the past week. It was probably just because of all the things I had been feeling lately.
"Damn girl get yo ass up" Monae said
My moma had most likely let her in. I didn't feel like getting up though I was sick and hurt all I wanted to do was lay in the bed all day.
"I know you heard me get up and go take a shower" she sniffed the air "Eww stay yo ass in there to you stink" she yelled after me when I had gotten into the bathroom.
Just then a wave a nausea hit me and I ran to the toilet the and everything that I had ate earlier came up. Damn I wish I could get over this the depression thing it was starting to change my body. I got in the shower and enjoyed the hot water that came down on my body.
Then something hit me dead in my face. I was late. I was suppose to have had my period earlier last week and I was never late.
This explains every thing. I was completely alert for the first time since the break up. The throwing up almost every morning, me eating more than usual, always being tired and finally gaining a little more weight recently. I wasn't depressed I was pregnant. Pregnant.
The word hit me hard and I had to hurry up and get out of the shower. When I got to my room Monae was changing my sheets for me.
"You better be glad that you are my best friend and I know you having a hard time or you would be doing this shit yo self" she said the turned around to look at me "What wrong why you look like that" she said staring at my facial expression
"I'm pregnant" I said quietly but loud enough for her to hear
"What wait do you want to repeat what the hell you just said cause I think I heard you wrong" she looked at me with a funny expression on her face
"I'm. Pregnant." I said I was sure I was loud enough that I know she could hear me.
"What the hell" she yelled at me
"Do I need to tell you again hunny cause I sure that you heard me the last fews times I told yo ass" I screamed back at her I could feel a mood swing coming on.
That's when it really hit her and she realized exactly what it meant and so did I. Yea I was pregnant and it was Marcus' baby. At that moment I realized why her face looked this way.
"What the hell are you going to do" she asked me she fell down on the bed and I could tell that her thoughts were going just as fast as mines were.
"I got to be sure we need to go get a test" I said to her she just nodded and sat back down on my bed. I went to my closet and hurried and got dressed. When I got back into my room Monae was ready to go to the store and I grabbed my keys and my pocket book.
I walked out the room with Monae right behind. I told my mom I would be back later when I passed her in the living room. When I opened the front door to walk out there was a girl standing there. Strangely the girl looked almost exactly like me.
