The Way

Lani,

"OK.....you can do this....just get it over with..." I said to myself as I help the small pill in my hand. I looked up at myself in the bathroom mirror seeing the tears roll down my cheek. Am I really about to kill my child.

I don't want to do this. Why doesn't Chris want to have a child. It won't be so bad having small feet run around the house.

Just as I was about to put the pill up to my mouth Chris knocked on the bathroom door.

"You good Lani?" He asked and I panicked quickly stuffing the pill back in the bottle.

"Ye.... Yea I'm coo...." I stuttered looking for a place to hide the pills. I sighed stuffing them in our closet where we kept the towels. I opened the door smiling at him weirdly.

"You sure?" He said raising one eyebrow. I nodded sliding past him trying to be as casual as possible.

"I'm good, why Wassup?" He shrugged.

"I thought I heard you talking to yourself...." I shook my head fast.

"Nope....just using the bathroom...." He looked like he didn't believe me but he didn't say anything else about it. "Let's go to the mall...." I suggested.

"Alright c'mon." I smiled going to get my shoes since we were already dressed.

"What you tryna get from the mall?" Chris asked pulling out the driveway.

"Nothing I just wanted to come and see what they had. Window shop unless I see something." He nodded grabbing my hand while driving.

Now what's wrong with adding a baby to this equation? Chris would be a perfect dad. I know I'm young but I made my own bed. Now I have to lay in it same as him....

"What's wrong?" Chris asked looking from me to the road.

"Nothing....." He gave me a funny look sighing.

"Is it something you ain't telling me?" He said looking at me since the light was now red. I didn't want to say no cause that would be lying but I couldn't tell him either.

"Um.....no...." I mumbled not looking in his eyes.

"You positive?" Nope.

"Yea...." I heard him smack his lips and the rest of the ride was silent.

When we got there Chris was walking extra fast knowing I wouldn't be able to catch up.

"Can you slow down?" I asked kinda annoyed.

"Can you walk faster?" I rolled my eyes running to catch up with him. I grabbed his hand mugging him a little.

"Where you tryna go?" He asked looking straight ahead.

"I need more bras...." I stated and he gave me a weird look.

"You brought me here so I could go bra shopping with you?" He said making me laugh.

"No....I just remembered that I needed some...."

We headed in the direction of Victoria Secrets. When we got there it was packed as usual. Chris already looked like he was ready to go.

"How do you like this one?" I asked him while holding up a red and black bra. He looked up from his phone for a split second.

"Its alright." He said not even paying attention.

"You not even paying attention to me." I whined causing him to sigh shoving his phone back in his pocket.

"Try it on then...." I smiled walking over to a dressing room.

"You gotta come in, I can't go out there for everyone to see me." I said peeking my head out the door. He walked in the dressing room looking at the bra. I could've just brought some bras but I wanted to annoy Chris so I was going through a unnecessary process.

"Is it alright?" I asked and he nodded grabbing my waist.

"Yea I like it." He kissed my neck rubbing my butt. I smiled getting an idea.

"Good. I might have to wear it for you tonight." I said winking. He smirked lightly pushing me up against the wall.

"Why not now?" He bit my bottom lip roaming his hands around my body. I felt his 'friend' rising which told me my idea was working. I pushed him back a little smiling.

"We're in public. Be good." I said taking the bra off putting on my clothes. I walked out the dressing room leaving him shocked.

"You so wring for that..." Chris said catching up with him. His friend was visible for everyone to notice.

"Aww I'm sorry!" I said in a baby voice. He mugged me pulling me in front of him.

"It's coo cause when we get home you fixing that." I chuckled.

"No imma be tired." I said and he smacked my butt.

"I don't give a fuck bout that." I laughed pecking my lips.
