It's Me, It's You (Lesbian Romance)

CHAPTER 23

"Tops is pregnant."

"What the fuck? For real?"

"News have wings, y'know. We don't know if it's true or just a rumor."

Heather heaved a deep sigh as she combs her wet hair. She's in the terrace with her cousins talking about Tops. She doesn't know what to react.

"She deserves it. She's a crack whore," said Olivia. "Incidentally," she added when she saw Heather's expression.

"Then who the hell is father?" Jelene asked. "I always see her at the construction site having drinks with the workers there. Just so you know, it's yuck."

Heather was silent. She doesn't know if she would give a damn mercy for her ex-girlfriend or just move the fuck on. Her cousins are right. Her friends are right. Her family is right. Now, it is the time to weigh her certainties and uncertainties. She immediately type a message. She wants to try if she can do this starting with Jo. Show time, Heather!

<<._ wow, bilis mqreply ha.. kayanq-kaya mu nuh?>>

Oh my sweet lord, just like that? No questions? No explanations? Just plain good-bye?This creature is impossible! I feel.. shattered.

<<._ uu .. aco dn.. di co alam kunq bkt qnun.. what I kn0w is that, I'm happy knowing you..>>

<<:) same ..>>

Heather's odd demeanor for Tops was questioned by her love ones. She didn't have a conversation with Tops the whole day, pestering her with this issue and that. To move on, she summons herself not to care at Tops after all.

With regards to her relationship with Jo, she thought she can make it, but actually can't. She's not yet ready. Ready for what? She doesn't know.

To give herself a peace of mind, she hauls away from her cousins and borrows the bike to buy herself some medicine.

<<._ mine, wait ha.. mutor lan co bile nq qamot.. pra qumalinq nco kqad..>>

<<cqe.. inqat ka ..>>

"Paracetamol and Rotacap, please," she said. The pharmacist gave them to her immediately.

"P48 Miss."

"Here. Thanks!"

As she drives the bike peacefully back home, she noticed that many students were in the street hanging out with friends. The school year is near to end. She's not surprised, but brimming with anxiety as she misses her two bestfriends: Marie and Marie. Same name, different personality.

While scanning her way, she recognized a familiar figure. Chubby, white skin, petite, beautiful face, black shirt and maong pants.

Tops!
