- Here are your results..said the nurse and gave me the results
- Thank you...I said, grabbed them and left.
I didn't want to see them right away. I wanted to go home and open them with my friends. Then I thought that the others weren't so close friends, so I only called Lana.
After half an hour the bell rang. It was her, probably.
- It's open..I yelled
- Open it, open it now..she started yelling after she entered
- Wait..I said and grabbed the envelope
- What?
- I am not ready to see the results. We have to calm down first.
- Oh, gust give me that..she said and grabbed the envelope from me
- Oh my god I am so nervous.
- Me too...she said and opened the envelope
- Ahh..I am scared!
- Are you ready?
- Say it...I said with my eyes closed
- Do you believe in fate?
- I don't know,maybe?
- Your fate says that you are lucky. You actually...
- Lana! Just say it, please...I interrupted her
- It is their father. The fate..
- I don't care about the stupid fate. We have a problem.
- What's the matter?
- He has a girlfriend.
- He should break up with her. She ruins your family.
- No, I will ruin their relationship, if I tell him.
- Rydel..
- I don't know what to do...I said and started crying
- You' ll tell him.
- But..
- Okay, forget about the family, but he has to help you raise your children. They are not only yours, they are his too.
- If other women could give birth, I could do what I want, but now I have to help the whole world, I have to help Mother Nature.
- I know, just stay calm. Everything will be better after you give birth to those children.
I decided to tell him. I just had to wait for him to call me. I didn't want to call him, because his girlfriend could pick up the phone. I just waited patiently. After a week of waiting I decided to call him. I couldn't wait anymore. It seemed that wouldn't call me. So I called him.
- Hello?
- Hi Nick.
- Oh Rydel, how are you?
- Good you?
- I am fine. I am in Germany with my girlfriend. We are getting married and we will stay here.
- Uh, great...I said disappointed
- Sorry, I didn't tell you, but I was really busy.
- Yeah, okay, it's cool.
- Did you wanted to tell me something?
- Eh, no. I just wanted to make sure you are okay. You left quickly from my house the last time we met.
- Yeah, it was quite weird. Uh, eh, Rydel, I have to hang up now. See you soon, probably in my wedding. You will come right?
- Yes, I will...I said with tears in my eyes
He hanged up right away, he was probably busy. I couldn't believe it. I was alone, again. I would raise my children alone. That was my stupid fate. Yeah, that was it.
After a few minutes my phone started ringing. It was Peter.
- Hey, Peter what's up?
- I am good, what about you?
- I am good too.
- Rydel, I need help.
- Tell me.
- I am looking for a steady, but can't find. The friend requests I receive in V are from girls only.
- Haha, it's funny that you are gay but only girls like you...I said and started laughing
-...
- Ok, I am sorry. I don't know, you should look for gays in V, don't wait for them to find you.
- I know but, it's weird. I mean I called a man yesterday and he wasn't gay, so he started making fun of me. It isn't easy to find your other half when you are gay.
- Oh, well. Why don't you ask Cindy for help? She is a gay too, she could help you.
- When I asked her to help me, we were in public. So she started screaming : «This guy needs a steady! Who is offered?»
- Oh shit. Really?
- Yes and I was like..
- Dude I know, omg.
- Well, can you help me?
- We can go to the bar I used to go when I wanted to fuck.
- Are there gays?
- They might be, but we can't be together.
- What do you mean?
- If we sit in the same table, they will think that we are dating, so we're gonna be in different tables.
- Okay.
When we got there was a lot of people.
- Just be yourself and act normal okay?...I said and sat in a table
- I'll try...he said and sat in another table close to mine.
Everyone was looking at me. The were pointing at my belly. This wasn't good. They weren't making fun of me. They seemed to be shocked of what they were seeing. Was my pregnancy illegal? I stood up and started running. They all started chasing me. I was running, faster and faster. I looked behind me. There was no one there. It was all in my imagination. Suddenly, I saw Peter running behind me.
- Rydel! What happened? Why did you left like that?
- I don't know. Everybody was staring at me. I panicked.
- Oh..
- Peter, can I ask you something?
- Is my pregnancy illegal?
- Eh..
- Peter!
-....
- Tell me!
- Maybe.
- Oh my god! Why didn't anyone told me?
- Look, it's isn't illegal by a law, but if government sees you..
- What?
- I don't know what they'll do but you destroy their plans.
- Alright, I will stay in my house forever.
- Rydel, you can't! What about your job?
- If they want, they can fire me.
- Rydel, come on!
- I will stay in my house Peter. I don't care. I won't let them make me eliminate my children, because that's what they gonna do.
I really stayed in my house and never got out. After two weeks my friends came to visit me with food, drinks and movies. They were so cute. I loved them. They actually wanted to hangout outside, but they couldn't leave me here alone. We had some fun, we watched two and a half movies and then fell asleep - in the other half of the third movie - all together in my big couch. In the next morning Lana's brother, Nathan came to pick her up. They and their family were going on a trip for a couple of months.
- Be careful, sweetie. I will probably come back before you give birth.
- Okay, me and my babies will wait.
We both laughed and then hugged each other.
