Marley's POV

I walk over to the Jackson's house like I do all the time, though I'm feeling a little under the weather. Momma Katherine invited me over to talk and have some soup. So I came, who says no to their future mother in law? Not I. I knock on the door and Jermaine answers "oh hey Marley! Toriano isn't here right now.." I smiled "hey Jermaine! I'm not here to see Tito, I'm here to see your mom." He nodded "okay.. come in!" I came in and hugged him "heyyy! By the way-" I laughed and went to the dining room.

Suddenly I smell the soup and start feeling nauseous again. Ms. Katherine looked at me and smiled "hey baby! Sit down, let me get you some food." I nodded and sat,trying not to gag. I'm so excited to eat the soup, she makes the best soup. But I can't stand the smell at all for some reason.. I gag and stand up "I can't- we can't eat the soup today, there's something wrong with me." She stopped and walked over to me "let's go upstairs instead, is that okay?" I nodded and we went upstairs.

Now you see, the Jacksons have a big ass house and they got a living room upstairs too. I plopped down on a couch and sighed "I'm sorry, I've been feeling weird lately. Just like off for some reason, I don't know why, mom. I'm always nauseous in the mornings and my appetite is all over the place. I'm real sensitive to different taste and smells too-" She sat next to me "are you active" I nodded "yeah I get all my proper exercise. My doctor says I look perfectly healthy." She stared at me "...sexually active I meant." I sat up. This conversation is gonna take an uncomfortable turn.

"Do you want me to say what I think you want to hear or the truth?" She sighed "The truth Marley. The truth." I nodded "then um.. yeah.. only with Toriano though, no one else" she nodded and sighed "do you think you might be pregnant?" And I thought. Hard. oh shi- "Um.. Maybe?" She looked at me "Maybe?!" I nervously giggled "yeah. I'm on birth control, I have been since I started menstruating, to help my cycle. But like maybe a month or so ago Tito was at my house and he wanted to do things but we didn't have any more condoms so I said no. But he convinced me it'll be fine and so I said yes but you see, he didn't get out in time. But we were like "I'm on birth control, it's going to be great!" And I had forgotten all about it. But now that I'm thinking about it I was supposed to get my period.. 3 weeks ago.."

Momma Katherine just pinched the bridge of her nose "Dear lord, child. You are a different kind of girl." I nodded "it's because I went to private schools. They didn't teach sex ed" she just kinda stared at me "I'm putting my kids back into public school." She stood up "come on, we're gonna go get a pregnancy test. And something to help your nausea." I got up and followed her.

We put our coats on and left the house. I got in the car with her and she started driving to the store "what was he thinking... I'm so sorry Marley.." I looked at her "For what, mom?" She shook her head "He should've know better.. I should've taught him better..." I nodded "It's okay I guess.." she stopped at a red light and looked at me "Do you know your choices? For if you are?" I thought for a second "Adoption, Foster Care, Abortion-" she stopped me "You'd really consider that?" I shrugged "If I had to. Which I probably will. My mother would kill me and the baby if I was pregnant.." Momma K just shook her head "That won't do at all..." I sat up "If I chose to keep it I'd be out of the house immediately." She look at me "well, is that what you want to do?" I nodded slowly "yeah... my fuck up, my responsibility. Though I'd never tell the baby that. I've always wanted to be a mom! Plus I get emotionally attached too easily to ever want to give my baby up for adoption. Once I had them in my hands I would never let go.." I chuckled a little

"My own little baby, just for me and Tito! Could you imagine that? We'd raise the baby together and- and take care of the baby. Give all our love and attention ti the baby. Well not all! We'd save some for each other too. I want to have a lot of babies. But not as many as you. I want like 4 or 5. Something that's be good for all of them. So everyone feels treated fairly through their whole childhood. I could never do 9, I don't get how you do it.. it's so admirable.." I smiled to myself, slowly falling in love with the idea of having my own baby.
