Thirty-Two Bridge (Luke Bryan)

Everything is Changing

Three months later:
I'm back at home in leesburg. Sitting on the pier watching the water. I'm just thinking. Mariah is seven months pregnant now which is crazy. Times flown by so fast. I'll never forget about two and a half months ago Mariah was talking to me about getting an abortion. She didn't want the hassle. She just simply wasn't ready being a mother. I'll never forget the words that came from her mouth.
"Luke I don't know if I can do this. I'm not ready. I don't want a baby. Kids are a lot of work. I think I might get an abortion." I did nothing but sit there and listen to those devastating words leave her mouth.

"Mariah baby you can't do that. That sounds so selfish and completely unfair. When the baby is born you'll love the little life it lives. You can't do that to a helpless little child." I remember telling her. I remember thinking to myself that she can't just kill the baby. I talked her out of it. She decided not to aboard the little baby.

I broke up with her a month after that. I wasn't happy. I couldn't see a future with her and she didn't like how busy my music career was keeping me. I also think she 'love' my money and not me. But whatever you need to try different things to see what you like. So yeah I've been single and happy for over a month now. Mariah and I are still really good friends. I always want to be there for her. Her and I were the kinda people that were great friends but when they started dating it was horrible.

I cracked opened another beer. My third. This one was for Chris. I grabbed a at rock from my pile and skipped it. 6. Nice. That was my best so far. I got a week off so I decided to come home for a few days. See everyone and do some fishin on the Flint and come out to the pier. My phone began ringing.

"Hello?"

"Hey Luke. I need to talk to you."

"Okay, what is it Mariah?" I asked.

"I think I'm going to put the baby up for adoption." She said.

"What why?" I asked astonished.

"I need to finish school. I've got 5 years left. And my parents said they won't help me with the baby. It's not what I want to do but Luke I need to. It'll be the best."

"Mar you can't do that."

"I am gonna talk to some adoption centers later today."

"Listen to me. If you are putting that baby up for adoption then I am going to adopt it." I said. And when the words came out I wasn't sure if I was going to regret them.

"Luke no you can't you're beyond busy. No."

"Mariah yes. That baby deserves a good home. And I'll give it the best I can. I'll adopt it. And you can see the baby when you want." I said.

"Thanks Luke." She said.

"I'll call you back tonight okay?" I said.

"Okay bye."

"Bye."

No way. Did I just say I'd adopt a child.
