Please Give Me Some Answers
(Ray)
For the rest of the day all Ray could think about was both of them were pregnant. How had this happened? He wished he could just walk out that door and disappear.
(Ray's Apartment)
Lily was curled up in the sofa chair with the latest copy of Cosmopolitan Magazine.
Ryan was laying on the sofa flipping through the channels til he landed on MTV. He was beyond bored and was itching to get out of the apartment." Hey Lil' lets go do something fun," he suggested.
"Its Lily," she said, she didn't let anyone call her Lil', the only nickname she had was Li, and only her sister called her that.
"Okay Lil-Ly," he said exaggerating the name." Let's go do something fun."
"What do you want to do?" she asked in a bored tone, as she flipped the page of her magazine.
"I want to go to a party."
"There aren't any parties during the day," she said logically.
"I know, but I want to do something til all the parties get started."
"Like what?"
"I don't know anything. Starbucks, something. The movies. Something outside," he said waving in the direction of the doors.
"Alright let's go," she said closing the magazine tossing it onto the coffee table. She grabbed some cash from her purse putting it in her pocket.
Ryan grabbed his wallet and the keys to the
apartment," Ladies first," he said as he held the apartment door open for her.
(Neela)
She grabbed some water after cleaning up after a trauma; she was feeling a little bit dizzy. She sat down to drink her water. What was she gonna do? There was no way that she could have a baby and raise it on her own. She buried her face in her hands. She took a deep breath to calm herself down.
Abby was walking by but stopped when she saw her friend,"Neela, what's wrong?" she asked sitting by her.
"I told Ray," she said quietly.
"What did he say?"
"He wants to help with this baby, but I can't let him."
"Why not?"
"He's married Abby. His wife is expecting, how do you think it'll look?"
"At this point its done. He should be responsible for something."
"So what? Child Support? Seeing his or her son on weekends? How fair is that?" Neela asked.
"Life's not always fair Neela," Abby said, using the same words that Neela had said to Ray.
(Diner)
Ryan and Lily were at a small diner to get something to eat.
"Lil, you haven't said anything to Ray since you yelled at him," Ryan said after a moment after they had placed their orders.
"Lily," she said correcting him," and there isn't anything to say."
"It wasn't his fault," Ryan said playing with sugar packets.
"Yes it is. He could have done something to make sure that she was okay," she snapped."To prevent her fall, though there's more to it then that. She couldn't have just fallen down the stairs."
"So what? Are you saying he pushed her?"
"I don't know."
"He wouldn't do that! How can you say that?" Ryan couldn't believe Lily was saying the things she was about Ray.
