Evelyn POV Pregnant I'm freaking pregnant, no no no how can that be possible I can't be pregnant right. Maybe this is just one of those dreams which feels so real I slowly open my eyes again I find myself in a room painted in white smelling of medicine I look to left and Mike is sitting with a worried expression and on my right Cathy is sitting with the same expression I look at the doctor trying to get up but Mike and Cathy stop me “What's going on” I ask holding my head trying to remember how I ended up here “Congratulations miss Roberts you are pregnant” the doctor says with a smile “What!“ I shout sitting up quickly not minding anything else “Don't faint again” mike and Cathy shouts in unison I would have laughed at there expressions right now but I have more pressing matter No way can I be pregnant with my r****t I don't even know how he looks like I'm only eighteen I still need someone to take care of me how can I take of someone else Why is my fate so unlucky I'm pregnant for a guy I don't even know I start hyper ventilating holding my chest suddenly everything seems so small The room seems like it's closing on me What am I suppose to do now I don't know how to take of anyone The doctor starts trying to calm me down saying soothing words After what felt like forever I finally come down with everyone in the room looking at me with pitiful gazes I don't like it when people look at me like that The doctor starts talking about what I'm suppose to do when pregnant The best food substance, the pills I should be taking and the like “Abortion” I say slowly I can't raise a child it's best I just get ruined of it rather than bring it in the world where it'll just suffer “What!“the doctor asks confused “I want an abortion” I say slowly “Okay it's not a problem but it has to be done as soon as possible” “How much will the process cost “ Mike asks looking at me the whole time “It cost $3000”the doctor answers “When can it be done” I ask looking at my belly “Tomorrow if you are ready” the doctor says After booking an appointment for tomorrow We walk out of the hospital each one of us stuck in there own thoughts I decide to take a walk at a park near Mike's house I start walking around and whilst being stuck in my thoughts I bump into someone instinctively my hand wraps around my belly protectively I decide to sit down and just watch the people walking around I don't know how long I have been sitting here dejectedly Until I feel a tiny voice snapping me back to reality I look toward the source of the voice and find a small child holding two ice cream She hands me one I take it and she tries to sit down on the bench but she can't reach I help her sit down after she has sat comfortably she asks what wrong I could help but chuckle at her cute focused expression “I just have a problem but I don't know what to do” I say smiling sweetly She smiles back showing her missing teeth “My mom says god never gives us problems we can't solve everything happens for a reason. Sometimes what we think is a problem might be a blessing in disguise “ Wow I have to admit no one has ever given me such a good advise After saying that the kid who I learnt her name is Laura left to go and play with her friends I stayed at the park a little longer looking at the kids playing around they seem so happy and innocent Full of energy and not yet disturbed by the cruelty of this world I don't know how but I couldn't help but smile at the kids My hands moves to touch my stomach even though they're is no sign of pregnancy yet I couldn't help but imagine my kid playing around like these kids Calling me mommy and coming to report every little thing I smile at my fantasy it would really be wonderful I would give my kids all the love I never received I shake my head stopping my thoughts from going out of control I start walking back home slowly my hand still unconsciously rubbing my belly When I reach home it's now evening I find Mike and Cathy preparing food in the kitchen I decide to join them to occupy my mind, I'm greatful neither mike nor Cathy talks about my pregnancy Wr decide to just focus on other things rather than on depressing matters We talk about anything and everything it almost feels like old times No worries just carefree attitude the way I miss those times After we finish cooking we serve the food and eat by the time we are done eating and cleaning the kitchen and table it almost twenty one We decide to just watch a movie and rewind, we couldn't decide on the movie so ended up playing rock paper scissors and Mike won So he settle for a comedy mad buddies,we start laughing enjoying the movie forgetting everything else and just living in the moment
