Tina had moved herself from the the bathroom floor when she had finally decided that the mourning sickness was over and was now curled up on her bed. She wanted to sink into the mattress and stay there for the rest of her life. She thought about going to pick-up a pregnancy test, but she already knew for sure. Then again she wanted it to be confirmed, that way she could stop kidding herself.
Her thoughts then went to her parents. Her parents. What would they say? She knew they wouldn't be happy. She would prove herself yet again a huge disapointment. She never got along with her parents. They were not warm and comforting. They never held or played or laughed with her. They forced her to take hidiously boring classes and wanted her to follow their layed out path for her. They never payed attention to her, which was probably a good thing considdering the last few days. But then again when they were around in the mournings and she was sick, they never asked her if she was ok or tried to help her. They only scoffed and turned the other way. They hated her dress of choice and especially hated her boyfriend. They wanted her to marry someone they chose and could support her and take her off their hands. But she stopped caring years ago. she did her own thing and didn't care what her parents thought or said. She wasn't lonely anymore anyways. She was in Glee club, the best thing thing that has ever happened to her in her life, she was dating and in love with her best friend since sixth grade, and had many amazing friends from Glee club. Again her mind went to a place where she thought she was going to loose it all.
She didn't know what she was going to do. But her mind suddenly went to a stronger and brighter place. She sat up strong and tall on her bed. She knew she could get through this if she tried. She grabbed her bag as she swung her legs off her bed and made her way downstairs to her kitchen where her parents were eating their breakfast. She took a deep breath before stepping into the kitchen where her parents sat.
"I'm going to school now," she shakily announced to the two of them.
"Have a good day of school," her mother told her coldly as they continued eating their eggs and toast.
"Um, when I get home we need to talk," Tina nervously added as she chewed on her bottom lip.
"Fine. You better hurry before you're late," her mother added dismissively.
Tina rushed out the door with worry entering her mind once again as she made her way her way down to street. But instead of turning left like usual, she turned right to make a quick detour.
