~Three Months Later~
April came into class with a hoodie on and the hood on her head. This has been her for the past week. She's been showing more and more and she needs to find a way to hide it.
Let's back track....
In the past two months, April found out she was pregnant. She never told Keith about it, only the girls know. Keith and Her for now are friends with benefits. She ended up getting a restraining order against Khalil so, he's been distant from her for a while. But, he's still around. Meanwhile, Keith became friends with Quincy and Sammy who left Khalil and moved in another apartment complex. And April also decided to quit stripping, now her sister and aunt are helping her out with tuition.
Now back to present time...
She sat down in her seat and instantly got on her phone. She only sniffled and that caught the attention of Keith. He turned to her and saw how bad she looked this day especially. No makeup only lipgloss, the healed scars were visible. Her hair was in a low pony tail under the hood she was wearing.
"April, you look—"
"Horrible? I'm aware, thanks." She rolled her eyes getting back into her phone.
"You didn't have to get smart." Keith replied.
"What are you talking about? I'm perfectly fine." April said, her tone was still aggressive but, she didn't mean it. Keith shook it off and ignored it.
"You look sicker and sicker everyday. What's going on with you?" He asked.
"I just must be sick, I get sick. Keith, I don't feel like being interrogated. I'm tired, I'm irritated, I just..." April began bursting into tears out of nowhere, confusing him. He's noticed sometimes during class she'd just start crying. He just thought she was just depressed about something or having PTSD. And with the weight gain, he thought she may have had a eating disorder with it. He can be very judgmental.
"I didn't mean to upset you, April. I just wanted to know what was happening." Keith began rubbing her back, "You wanna come over later and just chill?" April nodded wiping her tears away.

"So, when you go over there are you gonna tell him?" Karson questioned, while folding clothes and the girls all in her room.
"Girl, you might as well. That ass and your tits are looking bigger than usual." Dana replied, doing her own hair in Karson's mirror.
"And your stomach is getting bigger too." Karson added in awkwardly.
"Wow guys, thank you for making me feel better." April said sarcastically. Karson mouthed sorry to her while Dana didn't apologize for what she said. "But, eventually I have to. But, he's such a good boy, I don't want to mess his life up because I'm having his baby."
"How do you know it's not Khalil's? I mean he did—" Dana started.
"Dana, don't remind her!" Karson scolded.
"It's not Khalil's, Dana, because he pulled out before he nut. Keith didn't." April corrected her, "And I'm glad it's not the devil's anyway."
