Honor Thy Teacher

Chapter 13

It was the last day of school and after that it would be Spring Break. India, Asia, Egypt, and the rest of the girls couldn’t wait. They had been anticipating this moment since the beginning of the school year and were more excited to be attending one of the biggest parties of the year. Finally no work and all play.

“ So have y’all decided on what you are going to wear for tonight?’’ India questioned the girls as she placed her pink MAC lipstick over her plump lips.

“ Yeah… I have a cute red dress with the back cut out,’’ Egypt replied as she set on the end of the twin sized bed.

“ I have a new outfit that Chris had just bought me yesterday,’’ Asia said proudly with a smile.

“ Oh… really? Humm...that’s sweet of him,” India replied.

She couldn’t be more happier for her two best friends.

“ Speaking of Chris. How is he anyways?” India asked as she turned around and looked over at her.

Everyone else was just as curious as they all looked over towards Asia.

“ He’s doing fine now. He just had to come to the realization that he’s never going to be able to play ball like he use to. But  on the other hand ecstatic to find out that he’s going to be a daddy.’’

She rubbed across her flat belly that hadn’t even begin to form a shape as of yet.

“ Oh my God you’re pregnant! I didn’t even know. Girl why didn’t you tell me? Congratulations! Me and the girls are going to have to plan you a baby shower,’’ Egypt said excitedly all in one breath as she jumped up and down.

Her eyes were as wide as golf balls as if it was the best news ever.

“ I really haven’t got the chance to tell much of anybody but Chris, India, and my mom, but yeah we are going to be parents. Thank you so much.’’

Asia felt so overwhelmed with the news herself and was trying to adjust to the her life and the thought of becoming a mother. She was so happy, but was still very scared and nervous all at the same time. She was thankful that Chris was by her side though.

Asia looked around at all the girls until something shiny caught her eyes. Her mouth dropped wide open in shock.

“ So you mean to tell me that someone has been holding out secretes?’’ She said as she looked over at India while holding up her hand and pointing at her ring finger.

India looked down at her hand and there it was; her promise ring that August had given her just three days ago. She had almost forgot.

“ Oh, this thing? I almost forgot. It’s a promise ring that August had given me. We made promises to each other after sharing a romantic,’’ she admitted, but didn’t mean to brag.

“ Umm...humm a romantic dinner. What the fuck is going on here? Promise ring? Romantic dinner? Pregnancies? What am I missing here? What’s next a wedding? ’’ Egypt says as she looked back in forth between the girls.

India looked over at Asia as they busted out into laughter.

“ I don’t see anything funny...you secretive bitches. I thought we were all tight, but how about I’ve got a secret of my own,’’ Egypt said as she crossed her arms over her chest and turned her head to the side.

India and Asia’s laughing came to a halt.

“ Believe it. It ain’t even like that girl. We all just got caught up in school, activities, our boyfriends, and daily life that we just haven’t had time to kick back , converse, and have girl time,’’ India said honestly.
