ASHLEY
4 months later
I stood in the living room, pasting back in forth. With this Walgreens bag in my hands. Demetria walked in from the bathroom.
" Wassup with you ?" She asked.
" Umm, I'm scared, confused, might be a little stupid." I say continuing to walk.
" What's in the bag ?" She asked.
" 4 pregnancy test " I respond.
" Omg Ash, I thought you were on the pill ?" She asked.
" I was, then I stopped about 2 maybe 3 months ago, and now I think I'm pregnant, what the fuck was I thinking ! I can't do this" I respond.
" Calm down sis, maybe this is how it's meant to be. Just go and take the test." Demetria cooed.
" I tried, but I don't know, I just can't pee." I respond.
" Come on, let's drink something & then I'll take one with you, you already know you not alone in this" Demetria says putting an arm around my sholders as we walk towards the kitchen.

Demetria and I took the test and I sat on the roof of the toilet looking at mine in my right hand, and hers in my left. Demetria went back into the living room the watch tv while I was panicking my ass off.
" Umm Demetria ?" I called out.
" Yeah ?" She answers.
" The test came back." I respond.
" What they say ?" She asked.
" Well, they both positive " I respond.
" What ?" Demetria says snatching them out of my hand.
DEMETRIA
As soon as we got them results back, Ashley and I went straight to the clinic and it was true, we were both pregnant. I was 2 months and she was 3 months. The last thing I wanted was to get pregnant & have a baby before I finish school, and while Kyson out hustling and shit.
" So when you gone tell Kain?" I asked Ashley.
" I don't know, I may make a party out of it." She says
" That sounds like a good idea, we can tell the whole fam at the same time." I respond.
" Well I finish business & get my degree, in about 2 weeks, we can have a party then, back home in Cali." I say.
" Okay, yeah that's good." She responds.
By me being pregnant now, I knew I needed to grow up and do what's best for me and mine. Kyson out here selling drugs, may even be using I don't know and at this point I really don't even care. The same day I tell him I'm pregnant, I'm going to break up with him. I just need to be on my own.

2 weeks later I received my bachelor in business & now I was back in Cali for my party my parents thrown for me.
" What you think of this brown sugar & Caramel smelling candle, I got for your apartment?" My grandma says.
I take the candle and take a sniff & instantly started feeling sick.
" Ohh god....umm it smell good grandma thank you....uh let me run to the bathroom right quick." I say standing and running up the hall to the bathroom.
I go up there and puke my stomach out, finally after rehabilitating I stand and wash my face.
" Everything okay ? Can I come in ?" My grandma says.
