Ariana's POV
"Are you sure about this?"
"Yes, positive!"
The worker handed her the paperwork to fill out. I sat there beside her waiting for her. I looked around the big waiting room. A bunch of people walking in & out of this place. Wow, they must don't know how to use a condom. But then again, some aren't ready for motherhood. I can see the sad looks on every woman's face. They don't wanna do this but don't have any other choice. I can't imagine the reactions of the baby's fathers. I feel so sorry for them. They was prepared to become a father.
Meanwhile, others don't wanna be bothered with a baby. The life of being a human. Its disappointing but yet life changing. You learned from your mistakes.
"Wait" she stopped for a second "I think i made a mistake."
I frowned "what? You wrote something wrong on the paper?"
"I think I should I keep it."
I frowned "Why?"
"What if Tony is dead? He couldn't see this baby if he's dead. Then I wouldn't worry about him trying to see my baby."
"You wanna keep this baby & deal with the man that can possibly be alive?"
"I don't know, Ariana. I'm starting to have doubts."
I huffed "when did this happened?"
"Last night, I was thinking about my future. I've always wanted children. I could see myself in a house full of them. Loving them, caring for them. I know I can be a good mother. I have the patience for it. I've babysit kids all the time. Maybe i shouldn't do this."
"Brandy, do you even know Tony that well?"
"He hangs around Darryl all the time. We never talked when me & Darryl was together. But after me & tony hooked up i've learned a few things about him."
"And what is that?"
"He likes to drink henny & smoke loud" she huffed "that's absurd."
"Do you really wanna tell your future kid that their father is a alcoholic & a criminal?"
"No."
I thought about the living thing that's in my stomach. I have my future kid in my system right now. I wouldn't want them to find out that I'm helping a woman getting a abortion. It wouldn't sit right with me.
"Do you really wanna keep this baby?"
"Yeah, I do" she shook her head in approval "I don't know what I was thinking. I'm basically killing a living thing that's growing inside of me."
The worker walked towards us "brandy norwood?" The worker questioned.
Brandy looked at me in desperation. She doesn't know what to do at this very moment. She wants answers.
"Its your choice, Brandy. I can't make decisions for you."
She spaced out for a second "I changed my mind. I'm keeping my baby."
"That's fine ma'am" the worker said "have a good day."
