One Day In Your Life

Calling For Trouble

It felt as if his grin got bigger with every minute that passed.
He sighed in a high pitched tone as he kept his eye on the road.
"I just can't believe it", he chuckled, "It's the best thing that ever happened".
I nod slightly not even with the strength for smiling in this moment.
"Diane", he snapped me off of my thoughts, "I promise you that everything's gonna be alright", he replied, "Nothing in this world could keep me away from being a father for this little star, ok?!".
I wish I could believe this too, my thoughts shattered as I remembered my parents.
"What about my mom?", I asked getting nervous.
"She'll kill me on purpose, I'm sure", I said feeling my throat tighten.
"Sweetheart she won't kill you", he smiled shaking his head.
"True, maybe she won't kill you, but me of course", I replied rolling my eyes, "I mean, get yourself in my situation and think about it Michael, I'm not even eighteen, I...", I sighed heavy shutting my eyes while I rubbed my temples.
"At least you should call her", he said calm as If nothing would happen anyway.
"As soon as possible", he added.

Clumily I got off the car with Michael walking close behind me, "I'm gonna make tea for both of us", he mumbled after a while, "Which favor?".
"Berry mix would be nice", I answered laying myself on the couch as I stripped out of my shoes.

I wrapped a blanket around my body and waited for my tea to arrive.
After a while I heard footsteps and knew Michael would come.
He placed the cup on the coffee table and kissed my cheek, "I'm off for sleep, see you then", he whispered in my ear before he diaspeared in the bedroom.
I licked my lips and sipped from the cup.
At least I should learn to control my temper for Michael, it's not his fault, I thought taking a deep breath as I lean back against the sofa before I closed my eyes.

~The Next Day~

My eyes fluttered open as I realised that I wasn't in bed.
I groaned and lifted my head to look around. Now I knew I fell asleep on the couch.
The smell of fresh toast filled my nose as I walked into the kitchen.
"Michael?", I called. But no answer.
So I decided to sit down and begin my breakfast alone, as I noticed a piece of paper under the jam.

Dear Diane,
I'm off for a recording today, that means I had to left very early this morning.
I'm sorry that i forgot to tell you.

Please enjoy the breakfast, I hope you like it!.

Love Michael.

"Didn't he promised me to get himself holidays as well?", I mumbled to myself as I narrowed my eyesbrows.
"Anyway...", I snapped and tossed the paper in the bin.

I ate my breakfast and went back to the couch.
So he left me all by myself with nothing to do, as I remembered my mom.
Should I really dare to call her?.

I fought against my thoughts as I couldn't take it anymore, so I grabbed the phone.
My heart almost burst out my rips as I hit the dial button.
The phone rang and I felt like passing out.
"Hello?", the sound of my mother's voice made me jump a little.
"Hey Mom, it's me Diane", I said getting nervous like never before.
"Sweetie where are you, to call me under that number?", I could tell she was confused even though I told her already.
"I told you that I'm in the USA...", I facepalmed.
"Oh right, I'm sorry", she replied, "So dear, what's the matter?".
"Well, where can I start", I chuckled awkwardly feeling my hands getting sweaty.
She kept herself silent.
"I need to tell you something, but mom?", I hesitated.
"Yes?".
"Promise me that you won't freak out, ok?".
"I promise sweetie", her voice calmed me down a little.
"Good, ok listen... uhm where to start...", i stuttered biting on my nails.
I took a deep breath, "Mom, I' pregnant", I hushed over each word.
"You're what?", she began to yell into the phone.
"Hey I begged for you not to freak out", I said feeling my heart drop right to the floor.
"Seems like you begged for something else as well", she snapped.
"Who the fuck think you are to get pregnant, do I need to remind you how old are you Diane?", she screamed, obviously loosing control of what she was saying.
"Mom, I-", I felt tears build up in my eyes.
"No!", she cut me off, "You move your ass as fast as possible back home, get it?".
"How many times I should you remind you that I'm in the USA?, it's not like a five minute ride back home", I said pissed off as i wiped a tear off my cheek.
"And when do you plan to get home?", she raised her voice again.
"Who's the father?", she yelled, not even giving me a chance to answer her first question.
"Ok for first, my flight goes off the day after tomorrow, and second I won't tell you unless you stop screaming at me like a little girl".
"You don't know it, do you?", she snapped and with this she ripped my heart out.
"What?", I blinked.
"You understood me damn well Miss".
"How dare you to tell me I wouldn't know who's the dad?!".
"Anyway I'm gonna pick you up on the airport, and no buts", and with this she hung up.
I just can't believe what just happened.
I sat down as i start crying like crazy.

~In The Evening~

"I'm home Diane", Michaels voice made me smile a little as I finished to wash the dishes.
"How was your day?", I asked I felt his arms wrapped around me from behind.
"Kind of bornig without you, but now I'm happy", I felt him smiling against my skin as he stroke over my belly.
"And what about you?", he whispered into my ear.
"Oh please don't ask", I sighed, "I called my mom".
"And what did she say?", he asked turning me around to face him.
"Well, she started screaming and all that stuff you know", I looked at the ground as I felt him lifting my chin.
"Look at me Diane", he said calm.
"Keep your head up, we'll go through this easily", with this he placed a soft kiss against my lips.
"Oh Michael, you don't know her...", I mumbled.
"Tomorrow is your last day with me, am I right?", he said breaking the silence between us.
"Yeah...".
