I arrived to Taylor's house at around 1:30. It's been a few days since I found out that I'm going to be a father twice over at just 20 years old. My dad was still furious and he insisted that I face my responsibilities and go talk to Taylor today.
I knocked on the door and heard footsteps slowly approaching. Taylor opened the door, glaring at me.
"Look, I know you're mad, but I'm here to talk."
"There's nothing to talk about, Bronny!" she snapped. "I've been trying to reach out to you forever!"
"And I'm here now, taking responsibility for my actions!" I stepped inside and closed the door behind me. Taylor turned around and walked over to the couch in her living room, sitting with her arms crossed.
"Are you sure it's mine?" I asked, trying to break the tension.
"Who else was I with, Bronny?? You were literally MY boyfriend!"
I sighed and rubbed my eyes.
"I still don't understand why you broke up with me." she said in an upset tone.
"Because I just didn't want the relationship anymore, Taylor. You need to understand that."
"But everything was going so well. The media loved us together."
"Exactly why I left you. I hate being in the media, Taylor. You know this."
This wasn't the first time I felt as though Taylor and I weren't a compatible couple. Taylor thrived in the spotlight and loved the attention, whereas I did not. I'll be honest, I never saw a long-term future with her.
I sat on the couch across from her and leaned forward. "How far along are you?"
"11 weeks."
I sighed again. Last time I saw Sophia, she was about 6 weeks along.
"Are you keeping it?"
"Yes, Bronny."
I looked down, feeling overwhelmed. "What are we going to do?"
"We're going to do what most parents do when they're expecting a baby: take care of it."
"Fine, but let's keep the baby away from the media."
She froze for a moment, then cleared her throat. "Yeah, about that, I already posted about it on my Instagram."
I looked up at her in shock. "What??" I pulled out my phone. I haven't been on Instagram in a minute so I haven't been keeping up with anything on there.
