Break Yo Chest (STAR)

"I'm pregnant."

I got a text from Tio Jahil asking to come to the studio for the girls rehearsal so I guess I gotta sell it to him straight that I ain't at his beck and call, and i'm done I don't tolerate shit, and Alex need to stop being a boujee ass-

"Nattie! Genial que estés aquí." He said smiling. "I'm not staying long, I already told the girls I quit, so I came here to tell you too." I said with my hand on my hips. "But we need you Nat." I heard Simone say as she sat her bag down. I saw Alex following right behind her and I rolled my eyes. "Nat we haven't been grateful for all you do. You do everything from the bottom of your heart and don't say anything, and the fact that we took advantage of that sucks for us because we need someone like you." Simone said.

"And Nat, I really am sorry for being Atlanta's biggest bitch, and you don't deserve all the shade i've been throwing, and shit I been saying, it wasn't fair to you, and it wasn't fair to our group, and our top priority is to make it to the top, and I know you've quit, but we really need you.." Alex said and for once I actually heard her say something genuine. 

"Just because ya'll finally owned up to what ya'll did doesn't mean i'mma join you right back, you broke my trust and respect, especially you Alex, and trust has to be earned, but i'm thankful for what you said and I'm glad you finally see shit from my perspective." I tell them. 

"So you're saying you're not gonna work with us anymore?" Simone said sadly. "No..I didn't say that. I said i'm glad you see it from my perspective. I'll still work with ya'll like behind the scenes and stuff, I just won't be here all the time." I explain. 

"Why?" Alex asked. 

"I'm pregnant."

"What?" "Are you serious?" They asked. "Yeah the test came back positive all three times." I explain. That when Tio Jahil came back in. "You ladies done with the apologizing, and where is Star?" He asked. I shrugged my shoulders. "She's with Hunter." Alex said. "Well she needs to be hear she's lead." Jahil said and that seemed to annoy Alex. 

"Is it because she's white? I chose her because of her voice." Alex said. "Yes and that was a smart decision, now make another and let Star be lead." Jahil said. I rolled my eyes, I figured this was gonna happen but it wasn't my business." 

"Jahil, why did our mama's and miss Carlotta's group fall out?" Simone asked. 

"It wasn't my fault, I did what I needed to do, I got them a European tour and everything, Carlotta was jealous, jealous of your mom, and that's what happened. Not me." He said and I frowned that wasn't completely true.

"Did or did you not use a condom? Because I asked you and you said no Elijah, I need you to be completely honest with me." I ask him staring into his eyes. 

"I did the first time, and then the second time I didn't think anything would happen." He exclaimed biting his lip. "You didn't think that anything would happen, Elijah I have a cell growing inside of me, shit happened." I tell him touching my soon to be round belly. 

"Baby-" He started. "No don't baby me, this is what got me carrying a baby. I came to you needing comfort for what happened, but your smooth ass, got me spreading my legs, now what's done is done, but we gotta think about the future. How do you, plan on doing that?" I ask him. 

"Are you keeping it?" He asked me. "I hadn't decided fully, but I thought about it, and I don't feel right killing a child, my child, our child,like that." I say. "Damn, i'm a daddy now." Was all he could say.
