No one speaks as the pizza is consumed. We all sit silently around the table, my mother and step father keep exchanging quick glances, unsure of what to say. My step father breaks the trend.
"So, uh..." He begins, "are you going to keep it?" I gasp and Michael chokes.
"What the hell?" I scoff, "Getting rid of this baby is not an option!"
"Marley you are so young!" My mom cries, "You just graduated college, you'd be ruining your life!"
"Even if this baby was an accident, it's not a mistake." Michael says, trying to calm her down. He looks to me fondly. "And honestly, I'm glad that it happened with Marley because I love her, a lot." I can't help but blush.
"Really?" My mother looks to the both of us.
"Yes, mom. I love him and he loves me, and this baby is going to be loved as well." I say, and she looks to my step father and he nods quietly.

Hello! Long time no write...
I currently (and have been for awhile,) without a laptop, so that has been making writing difficult for me. I am so sorry that I have not been updating, but I promise as soon as the school season rolls back around I will be back at it with the frequent updates. I love you all and thank you so much for the support. Xx
