Chapter 44 by Kobe Kobe

She'd better think of something to tell him.

She makes up some lie.

You really wanna know what's happening?

...Yes, absolutely. Are you okay? Zoey... you can talk to me. You've always been able to talk to me. I love you.

*She bit her lip. She had to think of a lie.* I...I missed my period last week.

...You what?

*She faked a sad sigh.* Look babe, I didn't want to tell you, but...I think...I just...I think even though we've been so careful...we...I...

...*She heard nothing but silence.*

I think I'm pregnant.

...*She heard a low sigh come out.* So...are you sure? I mean, you're on the pill, we use condoms...are you sure?

What else does missing my period mean, Tom? Do you think I wanted this? *She felt like throwing up.*

...Those odds...are insane. Have you gotten a pregnancy test yet?

Listen babe, I didn't even wanna think about it, okay? You wanna know the reason why I've been blowing you off for the last couple of times you've wanted to hang out? I don't want to see you right now. I'm ashamed. I'm embarrassed. I don't even want to look my parents in the eyes. I'm pregnant at nineteen, Tom. Nineteen.

...Hey hey hey, we don't know that yet. Look, we can hang out on Saturday. I'll call off and buy some tests. Just...focus on work then, okay? But don't do any heavy lifting or anything just in case. I understand, and no matter what you want to do if it's true...I'll support you, Zoey. I'll drop out of college and get a full time job if you want to keep it. I know how strict your father is. I love you.

*She bent her finger and put it in her mouth to keep from crying a little. She felt horrible.* I love you too. I'm going to get some sleep now, okay?

...Okay. And hey, this might be a good thing. If the baby survived both a condom and a birth control pill, maybe they're meant to be. I love, love, love you, Zoey. Never forget that.

I won't.

...Bye.

She threw her phone off of her bed as she put her face into her hands and then slapped herself. She lay face down on her bed and screamed.

"What the fuck is wrong with me?" She said aloud. "What the fuck is wrong with me?" She repeated.

She began to cry.

Proceed.
