Denial
Roman: Hey. When you planning on moving your stuff in the apartment?
Jonathan: I'm not.
Roman: You're getting new stuff or something?
Jonathan: No. I don't need the apartment.
Roman: You & Té gon move in here together?
Jonathan: We are no longer together.
Roman: Wait what? Since when?
Jonathan: Since 2 weeks ago.
Roman: Dude you gotta tell me these things. That's why you've been acting weird. What happened?
Jonathan: You remember how you said she wouldn't cheat on me?
Roman: ...no she didn't. Do you have proof or are you just assuming?
Jonathan: Nigga she TOLD me.
Roman: Did she sound drunk? Are you sure-
Jonathan: It was her & she was sober.
Roman: ...damn, man. I'm sorry.
Jonathan: Nah it's all good. I'm ok.
Roman: Are you really?
Jonathan: We were already fighting & already on a break. This is just like we're on a break....except indefinitely.
Roman: Well did she say she was drunk? Who was it with?
Jonathan: I don't know if she was drunk.
Roman: Would that change your mind about the breakup if she was drunk?
Jonathan: ...I don't-I don't know. But she kissed Exavier.
Roman: Exavier?! As in the gay best friend?
Jonathan: He's not gay.
Roman: It seems like he's not but what if he is?
Jonathan: I have proof that he isn't. Yesterday I got Alivia to flirt with him through Instagram & guess who sent her a dick pic?
Roman: Oh wooo-wait.
Jonathan: What?
Roman: You got her to flirt with him?
Jonathan: I was hoping he was actually gay but...clearly I was wrong. But I'm ok.
Roman: Don't lie to yourself.
Jonathan: I am. I swear.
Roman: Ok.
Roman's POV
I know he's not ok because for the past 2 weeks he's been distant & he's been keeping himself busy. I rarely see him & when I do he seems out of it but I just assumed it was because of the break. I don't know if I want to believe that she actually cheated. I think there's more to the story than either one of us knows
*a week later* Shanté's POV
I've been throwing up just about every morning & my period hasn't come. I thought maybe at first that it was just late but it's been about 5 weeks & the throwing up isn't making my thoughts any better. I decide to go to the doctor to get checked..to see if I'm pregnant. I lay in the chair & the nice lady proceeds to put cold gel on my stomach. She presses this stick thing against my stomach & starts moving it around. I look at the screen & I don't see anything odd so my nerves go down
Doctor: You see that little pea right there?
...
Doctor: That's your baby.
