'' she sobbed  " What am I going to do now? I can't let Adam go,  no no I can't sacrifice my love Ahhhhh! '' she sobbed   she cried herself to sleep that night   she woke up the next day with a serious headache   when she saw her reflection in the mirror she screamed  the young lady in the mirror looked like a ghost her make up was smeared her eyes were swollen from continuous crying and her hair was messy    " oh God I don't deserve this '' she sighed   she freshens up and went back to the kitchen   while eating she heard a knock on the door    when she opened it she saw her Best friend Rose.  " Hey Rose what brings you here? '' she asked  " Hey Lucy, can I come in? '' Rose said ignoring her question   " Yeah you can come in " Lucy replied moving aside so Rose could go in    After they had settled down Rose spoke up  " Lucy I heard about what happened between you and Adam," she said   " Rose I am confused what should I do I love Adam and on the other hand I don't want to give birth to sickle cell children " she sobbed  " Hey stop crying don't worry we will find a way out of this " Rose whispered   " no no there's no solution I don't know what to do " she sobbed   " Alright calm down stop crying okay Rose whispered trying to calm her down    Rose was Lucy's best friend since college when she heard about the situation she disagreed at first but when she saw that they were madly in love with one another she was helpless.
