"You're joking right?"

I just stood there with my head down. Staring at my feet

"Trinaty. Talk to me!" He said, his voice getting louder.

"I wish I was Dallas." I said, looking him in the eye.

"God I'm a fucking idiot!" He yelled, kicking the ground.
"I knew I should've wore a condom, man I should have been more care-"

"Dallas just shut up ok! It wasn't just your fault, it was mine too. But right now we've got more important things to worry about!"

"You're getting an abortion right?!"

"No I'm not getting a abortion Dallas!! It's not the baby's fault and I'm not about to kill it!"

"You can't raise that thing!" He shouted, running his hand through his hair.

"Baby!" I screamed. "It's a baby! And if you like it or not it's YOUR baby!"

"Do you hear yourself right now Trinaty? I'm not even 17, I can't raise a baby!"

"So what's it gonna be Dallas? Are you just gonna walk out of our babies life just like my mom? Or are you gonna grow a pair and take responsibility?!"

"I can't do this." He said quietly. He walked away, got into his car and drove off.

I felt like someone just stabbed me in the heart. I thought that if anyone was gonna be there for my baby, it would have been Dallas. But I was wrong.

I sank down to the ground and did what I have been doing best this past day. I cried.
