My heart dropped to the floor. This can't be I said bursting into tears no I'm not I said shaking my head in disbelief. Well the pregnancy test we have you take says other wise.. get some rest we will talk tomorrow and get everything sorted out. I'm not pregnant I whispered to myself I immediately thought of Jodie and what occurred last month. Noooo!! I cried the whole night until I had no more tears. I already know they notified my mother about my whereabouts but that was least of my worries.

Nina ! The P.O said softly your mothers on the phone. I got up slowly with my arms in the jail suit. They put cuffs on my hands and feet and walked me to the booth. "Hello I said wanting to fall off the face of the earth. "Ari !! My momma said crying why just whyy did u have to go to that party why didn't you listen to me !! Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant!! She screamed through the phone. My mother was truly hurt and I know she was done with me once and for all. Good riddance to I'm your mother forever. " I stood there in silence unable to speak. "Umm I said with a watery voice ... I didn't know I was pregnant mom I swear ... "So who is the father ? She said sternly and fed up. "It's Jodie ... ommggg!! you know what Ari u did it this time ! I swear !!! Everything you put me through do you even appreciate me even a little bit cause !!! It seems like I don't matter my protection over you doesn't matter!!
Mommm !! Ofc you matter I need you right now to be my support momma please don't be mad at me. I'm sorry I need time Ari sorry ain't gonna fix it this time. After she said that she hung up the phone... my heart was completely shattered. It was me my mother and older sister that's all and who we got.
A couple hours later ... they was deciding if I was gonna go to the pregnant side of the system or stay in the main building and soon as my baby is born It goes straight to the nearest family member. I sat there quietly praying to Jesus to get me out. I didn't even fully accept that I had a human inside of me I can't even believe it. How am I gonna tell Jodie. Alright hello Miss Carter I am Mrs. Wang and I am the nurse of the people here who have babies and soon be eligible to keep them here. "Hello I said nervously. "Alright come with me.. she had short brown hair and looked Japanese. She walked me to this small room and it was pink it had a baby ultra sound monitor and pink soft bed. "Okay so they told me you didn't know you were pregnant how did that happen. She said with a warm smile while putting a blood pressure thing on my arm. "Well I didn't have any sicknesses or pains. "That's common in some pregnancies. Okay so we will take another pregnancy test to make sure then we will do a ultra sound to see how far along you are... and don't feel sad or pressured we will go over baby plans when we are done to get you into the system. I had my first child when I was 15 I know exactly what you are going through just take it day by day. And I will be your mentor and baby support specialist. I liked Mrs. Wang it was surely a huge judge free zone.
After I peed in the cup and gave it to her she ran some tests. "Ouuu see your most definitely having baby.. I rubbed my head looking down at my belly I just thought it was a food baby. She soon then put the jell on my stomach and rubbed it around. I stared at the screen unsure of what I was looking at. "It's wayy to early to tell the gender but here is the head and feet. And you are a month and 3 weeks pregnant. I have a planner to keep track while your here and we are all done nice meeting you  miss Nina. Tomorrow we have to talk about plans and you will see if your eligible for the program. " the officer walked me back to the cell.. I laid there cold and shivered myself to sleep.
