Lust Of Fortune

Chapter7

3 MONTHS LATER
Joelle POV
"You really have disappointed me Joelle! How could you?! You my daughter, not a hoe?!" My father shouted.

"Romeo!" My mom shouted.

"Don't ever call her a hoe! She is grown enough to make her own decisions!" My mom held his hand.

"You've gotta accept the fact that I ain't the little girl that you used to buy ice cream for. I don't get why you shouting at me. Ray had his daughter when he was 16. Why should I get the talk and not him?".

I really did upset my father that night when I told them that I was pregnant. Yeah, pregnant. I'm 3 months and we're not even in the middle of the academic year.

I have disappointed my family, well my dad. He doesn't wanna talk to me. He expects me to be the good girl, good grades and good life. Okay, I understand that but everybody makes mistakes. I was drunk that night and I didn't even know what was going on. He's just gotta accept the fact that I'm gonna do mistakes one day.

Have I told Jamal? No, not yet. I didn't want him to know. He doesn't really need to. No one knows out of the family, only Anastasia and Teyana. He gets back next month and I'm kind nervous. I haven't found out the gender yet. I'm excited though. Boy or girl? I don't mind both.

I know we both have our future ahead of us but I'd like it if he'd stick around to help. Some niggas just deny the fact that they got a female pregnant. I just don't want Jamal to leave me on my own. I just hope and pray that he doesn't.

Walking to my bedroom, I felt a little tired. I needed to sleep. I grabbed my MacBook and laid on my bed. I started on some assignments. As I was in the middle of it, I noticed that Jamal was skyping me.

"Hello?" I answered his call.

"What's up baby?" He asked.

"Hey." I smiled a little.

"Where you at?" He rubbed his chin.

"Home. Doing my assignment." I lifted up my book.

"Same here, they got us doing some 3 page essay about slavery and shit. I'm tired as hell. We have practise nearly everyday. The only free time we get is only for an hour and that's it. On Saturdays, I'm free." He told me.

"Well, you gotta rest up then." I laughed.

"How are you doing? You look a little tired too.".

"Oh nothing, just working." I lied.

I could feel my head spinning.

"Anyways, we got one week off. I was suggesting that you come out here and chill with me.".

"Erm..yeah I'm free. I've got one week off too but I don't know if my grandma still wants me to help with the church committee. I'll come for sure." I smiled.

"That's great. Imma have coach to get your ticket booked.".

"Okay.".

"Well, I'll call you back. The boys are back and they really loud. This is the only time I could get some peace and quiet." He chuckled.

"Okay, I'll talk to you later." I waved.

"I love you." He said.

That was so sweet.

"I love you too." I laughed and grinned.

I felt so guilty as I was talking to him.

He just sat there not knowing that his seed was growing in the inside of me.

Jamal POV
"You still talking to your girl?" Callum came in.

I didn't say nothing to him.

"I thought you left her ass. That explains why you never coming out to parties with us. So now you faithful?" He chuckled as he grabbed a can of soda.

"Shut the fuck up mane." I smacked my teeth.

"You gotta drop her ass. Last time I heard, she was pregnant." He told me.

"Pregnant? Nigga you trippin'!" I shook my head.

"Never saw you slippin' it on in the video." He smirked.

SHIT!

I messed shit up big time! If my moms finds out, I'm dead! I'm not ready to be a father, I don't wanna be a father, not right now. I don't what I'm gonna do but I'm thinking of dropping her though. I've got basketball to think of.

I love Joelle but right now, it isn't a good time for me to be getting girls pregnant.

I got up and walked out of the room slamming the door. I walked out of the house and got inside my car. I drove to the other side of town. Once I got there, people came around and lingered around my car. I needed to do what I need to do to get my mind off of things.

"Gimme a bag!" A woman with bad breath came over.

"Yeah yeah, just take it bruh.." I held my nose.

After she handed me the money, I started selling more until it got to 2 am. I was a little tired as I already told Joelle so I cracked up my car and headed back to the hotel.

Once I got back, I slowly crept into the bathroom to take my shower. Once I was done, I laid in my bed and just thought about Joelle. I can't believe we didn't use protection though.

I don't know what I'm gonna do.
