It was a challenge getting out of bed this morning. I managed to fight sleep and get dressed for the first day of school.

I sluggishly waltzed down the stairs for breakfast. I met the housekeeper on my way and ordered her to tidy my room since it was a mess.

I got to the dining and met my mom sitting there with an unsure look on her face.

"Morning mom." I gave her a kiss on her forehead and she smiled at me weakly. I wasn't comfortable with her demeanour, it means something's up. I'm sure that boyfriend of hers must've done something again!

"What's wrong?" I asked her worriedly. "What did that monkey man do this time?"

She gave a deep sigh, "Changed my life?" I furrowed my brows at her statement.

"What?"

"Son, the hospital results are out."

That's when I remembered she visited the hospital two days ago because she felt sick. I don't really pay attention to her, though she's my only family right now. It's just, I have a lot going on in my life.

"What does it say?"

She paused for moment contemplating whether or not to let the cat out of the bag. Then she released a loud and deep sigh once more.

"I'm pregnant!" she announced lowering her head and smiling shyly, but I wasn't amused at all. I stood up from the dining and smacked the table angrily.

"Son, what's wrong? Aren't you happy?"

"No! As a matter of fact, I'm disgusted!" I lost it.

Mom got up to face me, "It will be better you start accepting Eric as your father."

"He is NOT my father! He will never be my father and I will never be his son. Mom, I keep telling you, he's just using you for your money, he dosen't love you! And now you've gotten yourself pregnant for that scum.."

"Behave yourself Ramson! What insolence is this?" Mom yelled at me.

"Ever since that father of yours walked out on us, Eric has been doing everything he can to please you. He is willing to treat you like his own son, but you keep pushing him away."

"Well fuck him! I don't give a damn." I grabbed my school bag and headed out.

"Ramson! Ramson! We're not done yet." she called out to me.

I stopped for a while to face my mom.

"Congratulations on your new child. I hope you and Eric have a wonderful family together, but count me out!" I slammed the door behind me and got into the car.

                  ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───

Arriving at school, I put on my airpods to appear snobbish, after all I wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone.

I blasted my hip-hop playlist on Spotify and strolled to my class.

"I like the way your body is (I do)
"Is that too obvious?
"Okay, I like your confidence (I do)
" Oh, that's what good karma is, okay.
"Li-Like Kehlani is, bad just like Kehlani is...."
