Zuri

 I'm going to meet Anthony's family today. Mr and Mrs. Miller. I'm kinda scared since he told me his family relies on first impressions. I'm not sure what to wear. I have been also vomiting sometimes during this week. I think I'm just sick or sum.

* she'd facetime anthony*

"Hi my love, I don't know what to wear and I'm scared too," I say stressed.

"It's ok baby. If you feel uncomfortable, you don't have to come." Anthony says calmly.

"No, I'm coming. Should I wear the black and beige fit or red?" I ask very stressed.

"Red may look a little too fancy for the restaurant we are going to so I think you should wear black and beige," Anthony says.

"Ok bye. I love you." I say while hanging up.

---------------------------------------------------------------

I guess I'm going to wear the black and beige outfit, do my makeup, and do my hair last.

Dinner starts at 6:30 and Zuri makes it there around 6:40 because of traffic.  When I arrived I had a seat at the table, and Anthony kissed me on the cheek and whispered in my ear saying "You look good." I gave him a slight smile and he laughed.

"So you must be Zuri, my son seems very into you and talks about you all the time." Mr. Smith says with his hand out to shake mine. I shake his hand back. "I didn't know he talked about me all the time!" I laugh while saying. Mrs. Smith jumps out of her seat to hug me and says "You're so beautiful. You can call me Jada." I say "Ok" 

I have a seat and the food comes around 7. That's when his cousins arrive. This is when I have to stay calm. 

"Wow, I thought this girl would back off Anthony. I guess she's just stubborn" Girl number 2 laughs. "Stop it,  Amelia." Girl number 1 says. So the girl's name is Amelia? Interesting name for her mean attitude. Dinner ends around 7:30 and Anthony walks me outside to my car.

"Ok well, I have to go. I'll see you later." I say while opening my door.  "Ok bye, I love you," Anthony says while he kisses me on the lips. I drive home and I see my parents standing at the door waiting for me. I wonder why. They sit me down in the living room to talk.

"So Zuri, you haven't been yourself for a while. You have been eating strawberries and ranch, you have been vomiting, and haven't had your monthly period either. We also know you are sexually active." My mom says very seriously. 

"Ok. What are you trying to say?" I ask my mom. 

"What your mom is trying to say is we think you might be pregnant. I mean we bought a test while you were at dinner to see. Please do the test." My dad says.

"Ok." I say with no emotions trying not to cry.

I can't believe they wouldn't even talk to me or anything and just buy a test. I take the test and after 15 minutes, I show my parents without looking. "Oh my god! You're pregnant!" My mom squeaks and jumps to hug me. I start to cry and tears fall down my face. "Why are you crying?" My mom asks.  I run to my room with the test to show Anthony. 

*she'd Facetime Anthony 5 times till he answers*

"Wassup, Zuri. *he looks at the camera* Are you okay? Why are you crying?" Anthony asks concerned. 

"I-i-i'm pregnant. *sniffles* and I don't know what to do. I don't want kids. I want to graduate, Anthony!" I say crying so loud.

"Oh shit. Can't you get an abortion?" He asks me. "No, my mom doesn't support them, and they're banned here," I say trying to reason with him. 

"Yeah, Mom! Listen, I gotta go Zuri. I'll call you later." He says quickly.

*he'd hang up*

I hate my life! My boyfriend just hung up on me, my mom expects me to be happy, and my dad doesn't even care! Why am I even alive? *prays*
