*****MATURE AND SEXUAL CONTENT WILL BE PRESENT IN VARIOUS CHAPTERS OF THIS STORY*****
Adalynne Marie Rivers- Friends call her Addie, 19 years old, living in LA, has a sister named Madalynne (Maddie). Lives on her own in an apartment, is kind of a lo...
I woke up the next morning and decided to just take things one day at a time until I decide what I want to do about the pregnancy. I get up and get dressed, and then text Maddie and ask her to come over.
Addie: Hey Mads, can you come to my place? I promise I'm not as depressed as yesterday.
I wait for five minutes and then my phone beeps indicating a text.
Maddie: On my way! Depressed or not, I told you I'd be here for you and I will.
Fifteen minutes later there's a knock on my front door and then Maddie comes strolling in. "How are you feeling today Ads?" She asks as she gives me a hug. "I'm feeling better actually. I decided I'm just going to take things day by day until I decide what I want to do about the pregnancy" I tell her.
"What're you thinking right now? Do you want to keep the baby?" she questions in a calm voice. "I'm not sure what I want right now. On one hand I want to keep the baby and raise it the best I can, but on the other I don't want to lose my career as a model. I know that will happen if I decide to keep the baby because I'll get too big and I'll also have a child to take care of and won't have time to model." I reply honestly, picking at my nails.
"Do you want my opinion?" Maddie asks with a small smile on her face. "Sure" I tell her. "Well, I think that you want to keep the baby and just don't want to admit it to yourself yet. You and I both know you would never get an abortion, it's against your morals. Plus even if you do have to give up modeling, you've earned enough money to raise this baby and have a comfortable life for the next eighteen years if not longer." she replies, waiting for my reaction.
I think about it for a minute. "You know Maddie, I think you're right. I could never get an abortion, this is a living human being. One that I created, I don't want to be the reason he or she never gets to see daylight. I'm just so scared. But I think I want to have the baby"
"Yay! I knew you'd do the right thing sis! I'll be there to help you, if you ever need anything you know I'm only a phone call or a text away. Now we need to make you an appointment!"
"Okay, I'll go call my OBGYN now." I tell her before grabbing my cell phone and leaving the room.
*Phone conversation:
Doctor's office: Hello, how can I help you?
Addie: Hi, I need to schedule an appointment.
Doctor's office: Okay, what's your name and why do you need the appointment?
Addie: My name is Adalynne Rivers, and I just took three home pregnancy tests and they all came out positive.
Doctor's office: Okay dear, does tomorrow at noon work for you?
Addie: Yes, thank you!
Doctor's office: Okay I have you in the computer. Have a nice day!
*End of phone conversation
I walk back into the living room and join Maddie on the sofa. "Okay, it's done. I have an appointment for noon tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?"
"Of course!" Maddie answers excitedly. "So are you going to tell Justin about the baby?" she asks me. I bite my lip and think for a moment before responding, "I may in the future, but not right now. Right now I'm just going to focus on keeping myself and the baby healthy"
"Okay, I'm here for you either way sis." she tells me. "Let's take a picture for instagram!" she says, smiling.

karenlaurent: Nice picture Addie, now answer my texts!
I read Karen's comment and then grab my phone to see two texts from her. Uh-oh
Karen: Addie, I need you to come to my office asap, we have some jobs to discuss.
Karen: Adalynne Marie Rivers, get your ass to my office now!
I notice that the last one was an hour ago, OOPS. "Hey Maddie, I've got to run to Karen's office, she needs to talk to me." I tell my sister, grabbing my keys. "Okay, maybe you should tell her about the baby now too." she suggests. I nod my head and leave.
"It's about time you got here Adalynne! I first text you over two hours ago!!" Karen yells as I step into her office and pull the door shut behind me. "I'm sorry Karen, I've had a rough day and a half" I answer honestly.
"I saw your instagram post, I was just going to ask you about it. What's going on Addie?" She asks, concern lacing her voice. "Well... I just found out last night that I'm pregnant.." I say, looking at her for a response.
"WHAT? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" she yells, standing up and pacing back and forth. "Adalynne, this will put your career on hold! How far along are you?" Karen asks as she paces. "I'm only like a week along, but I'm going to keep the baby. I know it'll put my career on hold, but this is important to me, it's a human being." I answer her honestly.
"Okay, well if that's what you wanna do, I won't fire you. I'm going to put you on leave once you start showing, and you'll be on leave for as long as you need." Karen says, still frowning slightly.
"Thank you so much Karen. It means a lot to me that you aren't going to fire me. I love having you as my manager. Thank you for supporting me!" I tell her, excited that I get to keep my job. "Now what did you actually call me here for?" I ask.
"Oh, I wanted to tell you that I got a phone call today and the client wants you to model for them tomorrow at 3pm. Does that work for you?" she says. "Yeah it should, I have a doctor's appointment at noon, but I imagine I'll be done by then." I tell her.
"Great, meet at the studio at 2." She says before giving me a smile and dismissing me.
