  It's been about a month since Elleah's car wreck. She still wasn't able to walk on her own but she has been taking it pretty well. I haven't seen her drink anything every since that day. Hopefully she continues to stay sober because I don't want to lose my best friend to alcoholism. That's how my real mother died, drunk driving. Ethan's mother help raised me along with our dad by her side. Ethan's mom was the only mother I ever knew considering my real mom died when I was 4 years old. It kind of gave me a wake up call about my life, seeing Elleah's body all beat up and paralyzed, in a neck brace. It's been hard dealing with the fact that I have HIV but every time I feel a tiny movement in my stomach, makes me realize how important it is for me to be here for my baby. Taking my life would have been the most stupidest thing I could have ever done because I would have took my child's life too. Plus, my family and friends would've missed me like crazy. The only things I was afraid of with having this disease beside dying, was if my baby would contract it and if I could ever find someone to love me again. Would someone really be willing to accept me and my baby? Will I be able to come out and tell them I have this dreadful disease? Will I even allow someone to even get close to me again?
I messed around and told Elleah how I was feeling, this girl done set me up on a blind date with her cousin Jahmil Collins.

I came out to the living room showing Elleah my little outfit. I had on a black and white jacket with nothing but my half bra underneath. The jacket slightly hung off my shoulders, showing a little bare skin. My blue jeans jeggings and Nikes fit comfortably. My date said to wear something casual and I think I was looking pretty cute to be plain Jane.

" Girl you can't even tell that you're pregnant." Elleah declared while she observed my outfit.

" Elleah, did you even tell the man about me being pregnant?" I asked her as my palms started sweating from being nervous.

" Yes of course I did." She answered.

" What about, you know?" I murmured under my breath.

" No, I didn't tell him that, Wynter. I'll leave that up to you. My cousin is not a judgmental man at all. You'll be surprise what he has been through."

" I can't believe he's a doctor and single. Something has to be wrong! Is he ugly girl? But you know I'm not that picky, long as he is tall and dark." I rambled about my date.

" Nothing is wrong and no he is not ugly. Jahmil is just a busy man and plus he just got a divorce too. His wife cheated on him with her boss. So, he really wasn't up for dating either but I'm sick of you two looking and sounding miserable."

" Ok so, since I promise to go on this date with Jahmil, you gotta promise to get out this house with me and Elle." I suggested to Elleah. Even though she hasn't been drinking, she's been cooped up in this condo for a whole month. She goes to physical therapy and then come right back home. That's it. Nothing more nothing less.

" Ugh why Wynter, I don't want to haul this wheel chair around town. Go out and have fun. I promise, I'm fine."

" I know you are fine but still we haven't been any where lately. At least go out to eat."

" Ok fine, I'll go out to eat with y'all when Elle get back."

" Yayyyy!" I cheered excitedly while Elleah shook her head at my silliness.

Suddenly it was a knock on the door.

"Oh my God, he's here Elleah!" I said panicking. What if he's ugly or can't carry a good conversation? What if he don't like me or don't find me funny? I walked in circles frantically and he knocked on the door again. Elleah looked at me crazy.

" Wynter! Are you gonna get the door or do you want me to wheel over there to get it myself?"

" I'm gonna get it." I let out a sigh. I brushed the fly aways from my hair down with my hand. I slightly opened the door sticking my head out the crack. I peeked out to see how cute he was, I couldn't believe Elleah's opinion. Unfortunately it wasn't even him, it was Ethan. I opened the door all the way up and let Ethan in. He kissed me on the cheek.
