Love Hurts (Urban Fiction) Part 3

Chapter 13 Dria

      While watching television with Danielle, I gave her a side eye glance and signed. I knew it was time to confront the situation. "Danielle are you pregnant?"

She spit the juice out of her mouth at my question and wiped her mouth. "What?"

"You heard what the fuck I said!"

"Why are you asking me this?"

"Because I'm the one who's buying your pads and I noticed that you weren't wearing any lately. So tell me.."

"Dria, I am not pregnant."

I sighed in relief, nearly thanking God before she continued.

"I got an abortion."

I shrieked at her response and turned my head towards her with shock. "You what?"

"He paid for it, I didn't steal any money from you. He told me it was best for both of us. And besides,  I'm too young for a kid."

It was like history repeating itself as I listened to her speak with confidence. This was something I couldn't fathom.

"You should have talked to me,  Danielle! How could you do something like that without consulting me?"

"You did it!"

"What the fuck is wrong you?"

She shrugged and walked out of the living room, completely unconcerned and it hurt me.

       I rose from the couch and followed her to the bedroom. "Pack up your shit!"

"What? Dria, I am not in the mood!"

"Fuck what you're in the fucking mood for!"

I began ripping clothes out of the closet and stuffing them into her purple back pack.

"What are you doing Dria!"

"You're getting the fuck out of my house!"

"Okay, I don't give a fuck but okay!"

"As a matter of fact I'm keeping all of the the shit I bought you!" I tossed the bag aside and went to my room to grab my keys.

"Let's go! Get the fuck out of my house!" I called while opening the front door and stepping aside.

She cut her eyes and walked slowly to the door, taking her precious time. "I'm coming!  Shit!"

     The ride to my mother's was silent and filled with tension. I knew that Danielle was more than what she pretended to be. If I couldn't get through to her, she would just have to learn the hard way. My mother was not the best example for her and I knew she would appreciate everything I did for her when moving.

"What y'all doing here?" My mom asked rising from the couch while drunk.

"She's moving back."

"What? Dria, you know me and Glen like the house to ourselves."

Her response didn't shock me, she only cared about herself and the men who gave her attention.

"I could care less. Raise your own child!"

I stormed out of the house rushed towards the car, pulling off as fast as I could.

      "And then she tells me okay, I don't give a fuck but okay." I explained to Cameron while wiping the tears away from my cheeks.

I tried calling Kaidyn and Chantel but neither of them answered, they were probably having problems of their own.

"Maybe it's the people she's hanging around. I see it happen all the time. Teenage girls are impressionable."

"You would be the first to know, huh?"

"I was young Dria. Listening to everyone just fucked me up. I couldn't take care of my self at seventeen. I regret pressuring you into doing it and I still have guilt from it."

I buried my face into my hands and felt Cam rub my back as I cried, uncontrollably.

       Chantel

  

I felt better about the situation after taking the pill. Getting pregnant by another man would have been the biggest mistake of my life. I was trying my best to make thing right and Marcus was,  also. While grocery shopping with Sky, I noticed Ron walking towards me and my heart dropped to my stomach. Trying to avoid him, I nearly flipped the cart over while turning.

"Chantel!" He called grabbing my shoulder.

"Don't touch me, Ron!"

"Please, Chantel.."

"What do you want? Haven't you hurt me enough?"

"I'm so sorry, Chantel. I know I can't take the shit back but.. I just got carried away."

"That's you're excuse for raping me, Ron? You got carried away?"

"You're just everything I needed in a woman.. and.. I didn't want to lose you. I will never hurt you again, baby. I promise you that I won't! I'm so sorry, Chantel."

"You hurt me and you didn't care!" I cried while looking back at Skyleigh.

"I do that's why I'm here. Chantel, I'll never hurt you again and I know you don't want to be involved with me but I just wanted to talk to you."

I didn't want to cry in front of Ron but I couldn't help myself. He pulled me in for a hug and I wrapped my arms around him, breaking down completely. Every emotion was building inside me as I punched against his chest, weekly. He just held me tightly while apologizing, repeatedly. I didn't know if I wanted to accept it or kill him.

     When I made it home,  Marcus was sitting on the edge of the couch with his arms folded and a mug on his face. 

"Hey, baby. Can you get the groceries while I put Skyleigh to sleep." I walked past him but he grabbed my arm, roughly, stopping me in my tracks.

"Hold the fuck up, Chan."

I furrowed my eyebrows while turning to him and pulling the baby closer into my arms. If he had found out about me cheating, I knew he wouldn't try anything with Sky latched onto me.

"What the fuck is this?" He spoke, holding up the Plan B box.

I was speechless while staring at the box, blankly. How could I be so careless to leave it sitting around?

"I knew you didn't want to get pregnant again but how you gone do some foul shit like this?" His nostrils were flaring as he gave me the coldest stare.

"Marcus, baby.."

"Fuck you, Chantel!" He tossed the box aside and gave me a look of disgust before rising from the couch.

"It's not mine! " I lied as he walked off.

He turned towards me, narrowing his eyes in my direction, waiting for an explanation. "It's Kaidyn's... She told me not to say anything.."

     

   Dandria

      Getting ready for my date with Cam, I sat in the nail shop waiting on my appointment. While flipping through the magazine,  I looked up and did a double take at the familiar face and my eyes widened. His mother was already glaring in my direction with a mug on her face. My phone began to ring as I stepped outside to take the call.

"What,  Kaidyn?"

"Remember when I told you that I saw this woman that I recognized in the hair salon.."

"Yea.."

"I looked like Cameron's mother but I know she's dead. Does she have a twin?"

"She's at the nail salon, now."

"She's not dead?" Kaidyn gasped in disbelief. "No, but I can't say the same for Cameron!"
