MEGAN POV (TWO WEEKS LATER)

I sit in my car waiting for Aaliyah to come down as I'm in front of her condo. She has a matter that she wants to meet and talk to me about but couldn't say it over the phone. I just hope it's nothing bad.

Before I know it, my passenger door is opening and there's Aaliyah. I take in her look seeing a pale flushed Aaliyah that looks like she's been sick for sometime.

"Girl are you okay? You want me to take you to the hospital?" I ask as she gets into my car

She just shakes her head till she closes the door.
"Meg...what I'm about to say please don't look at me different... please"

"Whatever it is. I could never look at you any type of way. You're my sister, so what's wrong?"

"..........I'm pregnant" she says facing me completely

We look at each other for a bit letting the silence settle till I break it.
"How do you feel?"
"Sick. I've been throwing up non stop......I'm terrified Meg"

"Why? - What's wrong?"
"I don't wanna have this baby...I-....my mom thinks this is the best thing to happen. She thinks Kelly is good for me, but she doesn't know...."

"Know what Liyah? H-Has he been hitting you?" I ask getting upset
"No. No. He's just weird.... Very weird....its a lot"
"Well I'm free and have nowhere to go so you have time to tell me"

She folds her arms looking straight ahead, "after...cause I need you to take me to the clinic"

It's been two hours and Aaliyah is still in the back, once they were ready to start they kicked me out the back. Having me wait here in the waiting room.

Pregnant. Aaliyah is only 19, and Kelly is like 36, the same age as Aaliyah's mom. I can't believe her; first she signed her rights over to Kelly basically making Aaliyah his child. Then on top of that the perv married her. Ugh I truly can't stand or like him. He's just a piece of shit if you ask me...

And her mother is too.

Who gives their own child away, that trick does. Sometimes I'm truly grateful that I don't have a mom, cause the ones I've seen so far is pure shit. Except Afeni, she's an Angel. An angel that none of us deserves to know.

I look up and see Aaliyah coming out the door. Standing up I grab her putting her hood over her head and rushing to my car. With her prescription in hand I fill it at a small local pharmacy and as I wait for it I look around for some things I know she'll need.

Tylenol, pads, pint of ice cream, anything to make her feel better. Knowing that she doesn't want to go home I dread having to bring her to Pac's house; cause that means I'll have to tell the truth. Well face it.... Kenneth doesn't love me anymore. But to tell someone outside of Pac and his family, makes it even more real....

"I got your prescriptions and some goodies to make you feel better"
"Thanks Meg, you're the best. The best sister I wish I could've had...."

"Me too. You're the best little sister I could have"
"Stop you're going to make me cry! And I don't need to be doing that....can we get to your place I need to lay down"

"Well....I don't live there anymore"
"What you mean?"
"I don't like there anymore.... Cause Kenneth broke up with me and kicked me out"
"WHAT!"

"Why didn't you call me!? Are you okay!" she says semi shouting looking in utter shock at me
"I'm fin-"
"Where have you been staying?" She ask cutting me off
