Simone pov
Yesterday we had received the news that we're having twins and still couldn't assimilate the situation. Was this really happening? Two? My head wouldn't stop spinning
- Simone — my mother's voice was heard throughout the room — Come down now, you're gonna to be late.
They still didn't know anything about it. I didn't want to tell them that I was pregnant so young. I knew they would go crazy. Especially my mom and if they were going to go crazy with just one baby, imagine with two of them
I felt a lump in my throat and decided to go down. At some point i had to do it, so it was now or never.
As soon as I enter the kitchen my dad's eyes fell on me and I felt like my heart stopped beating for a second.
- Hey — I tried not to break my voice
- Hey baby — Dad's voice made me calm my nerves a bit
Of both of them he had always been the most attentive to me. Mom was always "very busy"
- I need to talk to you guys — I said again
- Not now Simone. You got school and you're gonna be late. We're already late — I sighed and turned to look at dad once more
I don't know what I was looking for, he was never really someone to contradict my mother.
His eyes met mine just to give me a small smile which I could understand as "this is not the time" ... it never was.
"You will have time. There will already be. "
I went straight to my car and continued on my way to school. I would already look for the best moment.

"Please don't let Jordan get in my way ... please don't let it happen" was the only thing that went through my head as I walked through the halls on my way to my first class.
Suddenly, my body collapsed next to someone else's. I had no idea who it was because to be honest, I barely paid attention to the road.
My hands unconsciously rested on my belly causing me to look up to meet Olivia who directed her eyes to my hands
- You guys are good? I mean you ... — she said a little nervous — Did I hurt you?
- It's okay — I said with a small smile — It was my fault, I wasn't looking
We were silent for a few seconds and her eyes returned to mine
- Are you okay? — she ask
I knew very well what she was referring to, however I wasn't sure I really wanna to talk about the situation.
-Hey Liv — Layla came next to us saving me
- I'm gonna ... keep going — I said without waiting for an answer

The rest of my day continued in a seesaw of emotions. I couldn't avoid Jordan my whole life, nor could avoid my family... it's just that it was difficult. His family took it better and I can only think of my mother sending me to a nunnery somewhere far away and as soon as the children are born? adoption... "what were people going to say about her daughter?"
- Hey stranger
His voice made me feel in a way I couldn't explain. I don't even know if it's a good thing.
Jordan came over sitting next to me.
-Liv told me that you're being strange all day — he spoke again — Are those two behaving very badly?
