Samantha's POV
Right now I'm at the pharmcy where I figure out I was pregnant. And the pharmacist Chie became my new best friend.
"If I'd told her, she'd never have left and her whole life would have been ruined, too. I mean, what's the point?" I told her about Alyssa.
" How noble. " I forgot she doesn't know about Scott.
" Oh, no, no. The dad is just some other loser." Scott's name is not that important to mention.
" You are turning out to be a lot more interesting than you look." She said before smoking her cigar.
"Why don't you just get rid of the thing?" Chie ask nonchalantly.
"My parents are Catholic. I don't believe in all that, but I can't!" I said complaining. I still fear God however.
"Oh, I had it all sussed! Move to Boston, study, get a great job, at 27, come back and open a hotel. Then get married and have kids." I said ranting about how I have a plan and now I don't.
"Wow. A whole life in bullet points." Chie responded oozing with sarcasm.
"Yeah, well now, it's pregnant, have sprog, full-time mother, wave goodbye to career, live off benefits, grow fat, lose hair." Ghad what did I turn my life into?
"Yeah. You might as well just kill yourself now. I can sort the drugs. Look. There's loads of people out therethat want a kid that can't have one. Give it away." Chie suggested. She's really a good friend even though she's busy manning her parents pharmacy and here I am ranting about my misfortune.
" I could still move to Boston. I can apply to college again, or get a job. I don't care. So it would all be the
same, just six months later." I said as if that's so easy.
"I don't even need to tell Alyssa, I could just think of an excuse." I told her as. I plan everything in my head but Chie interrupted me."Whoa. That's major denial, babe." Right.
"Yeah. I just happen to think it's the way to go." I said as if it's a fact.
