~test strip

Chapter thirty-eight

Katherine's POV

"Can you drop me at any pharmacy? I need to pick up something from there" I informed the driver the moment we drove out of the school compound.

I didn't even wait to say goodbye to Lavi  before rushing off. His call came in not quite long and I didn't even look at it twice before am tempted to answer it. We stopped at the pharmacy close to our area and I rushed in.

My chest was pounding as I stood at the counter.

I can do this!

I just have to grab it and go, no question asked.

"Good afternoon ma'am" I greeted trying to sound as normal as possible.

"Afternoon dear! How can I help you?"

"I uhm need a test strip" I murmured

"What kind of test strip because we have a lot here" she asked with a stare

You can do this Kate...just say the word.

Taking a deep breath; I said the word loud and not so clear.

"Pre- pregnancy test strip ma'am" I shuttered.

"Okay dear"

She retrieved it from under the glass shelf and placed it on the counter.

"Do you know how to use it?" He asked politely.

"Uh no...it's not for me but my mom" I replied with a nervous laugh.

"Oh okay! Just make sure she read the instructions before use okay?"

"Okay! How much?"

I paid her and grabbed the bag and head outside making sure to keep it out of view as hard as possible. I hurried straight to my room and locked myself in the bathroom.

I read the instructions carefully with a shaky hands as I pulled out the strip and stared it over in my hands.

Hell..

I followed the instructions and pee on the tube and placed it on the toiletries stand while i continued to hold my breath waiting for fifteen minutes to be over. I slump against the toilet seat with my head between my palm; weeping in silent. And for the first time in the whole of today; my tears dropped to the floor. I was shaking from pure fear and anxiety.

If I recall correctly; my red period didn't show up last month and I didn't pay much attention to as why and now? It's all coming back to me adding to a list of my fears and worries. I could be pregnant for all the wrong reason in the world and what would I do if that fact was confirmed. How do I tell my dad about this new development. Oh I know how!; look dad! You're going to be a grandpa because am pregnant!

Screw me big time.

I can already imagine the disappointment and anger and I would be crazy to expect anything less. Lavi's mom was right all along. I'm really no good for her son. I already destroyed his future just like she predicted I would and hell! If only she knew how right she was.

Hell

I'm bad for his future indeed and there is no two ways about it.

I reached for the strip after the set time and lo and behold; two horrifying line had appeared on the tube and it didn't take long before my heart made it to the floor in a final collapse.

I'm fucking pregnant!

I'm going to be a mom!

More hell!

I sat across my dad on the dinner table with zero appetite for food and high desire for dead!. The fact that a little life was growing inside of me is the only reason I haven't gone flying over the rooftop.

How and where do I start from with all of these? I don't even know the first thing about being a mom and hell I will be damn if am even allowed to keep it. Keeping this child will mean pure hell on earth and getting rid of it would mean me committing the worst sin ever!

"Why didn't you tell me you had fainted in school the other day?" My dad's voice pulling me out of my dilemma.

"That's because it was nothing serious"

"I will be the judge of that young lady. Tomorrow you're coming to the hospital with me okay?"

"No dad! I have practical exam tomorrow"

"Well you can come after tomorrow or do you still have practicals" his eye searching mine

If I refuse him again; he might grow suspicious and I can't have that...not yet!

"Okay fine. We can go after tomorrow"

"Go ahead and finish up your food then and rest for your exams tomorrow"

I forced the food down my throat and hurried to my room. I didn't even bother to turn on my phone. Lavi's call will come through the moment I do that and I don't know what I will say to him once that happens.

I found the rosary he gave me under the pillow the moment I pulled one closer.

This has got to be a test no doubt.

I continued to toss and turned until I finally fell asleep around three in the morning.

Sleeplessness!

Worst remedy for a new day!
