"Liu i have something to tell you." Said Denise as a tear escaped her eye.

"What is it, Denise? You're worrying me." Asked Liu, concerned as he saw his girlfriend cry.

Denise never cried, not when her favorite singer died, not even when her grandmother was diagnosed with cancer.

Denise never cried, and yet, there she was, crying and looking terrified. This terrified Liu too, he had never seen his girlfriend like this.

 She sat down at a bench in the park they met last year when they were 17. She took a deep breath and stared at her shaking hands.

"I-I'm... P-pregnant." She finally let out and started sobbing as all this felt too real for her. Liu froze for a few minutes, but as he slowly forced his consciousness to work he hugged his girlfriend, in an attempt to soothe her, and maybe, just maybe, he could also soothe the hurricane that were his thoughts.

Liu didn't know what to do. This was his little secret, no one knew he had a girlfriend, no one but the two of them. They knew if they told anyone, everyone would meddle in their calming relationship, so they thought it would be better to keep it quiet.

What a mistake that was.

Now what were they going to do? Liu's parents would kill him, they would be disappointed at him, the parents that claimed he was the best role model his little brother could have.

How would Jeff react to this? Liu thought, although that was the least of his concerns at the moment.

"Shh, don't cry, i'll stay with you. I won't leave you, i promise."  He shushed her, although he was mentally crying too.

 He was trying to be strong for them both, but he was thinking about his future, and that sooner or later he'd have to tell his family, a christian family that would crucify him. He couldn't hide nor handle alone something like this, after all, he was only 18 years old.

"H-How old is it?" He asked, struggling to get his words out normally.

"F-Five months." She answered, and Liu snapped his eyes to her.

"And you're telling me now?" He asked her.

"I only figured out yesterday! I hadn't felt the signs before." She said. 

They both sighed.

~~~~~~~Time Skip, four months later, Denise's P.O.V~~~~~~~~~~~

I was watching TV at night,  it's not like i could make big efforts or do anything else, i had to look out for my baby girl, yes i decided to know the gender, i couldn't wait so long to know. 

Suddenly i heard sirens, a crapload of them. I thought it was from the TV at first, i was watching CSI, but then i realized that this was real. 

I looked out the window to see a huge apparatus at my boyfriend's house. How did i know? I live right across from him, next to my friend, Jane. She knows about Jackie, that's what Liu wants to name our baby, i had agreed. We had spent a huge amount of time arguing about baby names. 

Jane has been helping me through all this, i am living alone so my parents knowing won't be a problem.

We wanted to tell someone, but we always chickened out, and it had come to this: Our baby girl, our daughter, was as much of a secret as our relationship was.

 Anyway, i was getting too worried wondering about what had happened at his house. There were 2 ambulances and i didn't dare count the police cars, there were a lot.

Worrying and stressing was very bad for my daughter, so i decided to go out and see for myself what had happened, to soothe me. I saw police start to pull the crime scene tape and i approached an officer, a horrible feeling in my gut.

"Hello, Officer? What happened? My boyfriend lives here." The officer looked at me sympathetically, making my stomach churn.

"I'm sorry ma'm. I'm officer Daniel and we're here to investigate triple homicide. The Woods family was murdered and their younger son, Jeffrey Woods is missing." He said and my world stopped.

"W-what?" I asked, my voice shaky. "That's impossible! I live right across and i didn't hear anything!" I raised my voice.

He was mistaken, they had the wrong house. Liu had texted me less than 3 hours ago. He had said he was going to sleep and said goodnight to me and Jackie... Then he told me he loved me... us, me and Jackie.

He still would tomorrow. 

The police was making a stupid, stupid mistake.

"My condolences, ma'am... was he the father?" The officer asked, he actually looked sorry, he didn't look like he was faking. Then again, he only looked a few years older than me, maybe he empathized with me.

 "Yes." I started to sob instantly at his question. 

Little by little, denial started to fade away and the harsh reality started to sink in.

"Liu's gone?" I repeated, finally understanding the meaning of the words. "Liu's dead."

I threw up in the bushes close to me. I felt very sick. 

 Suddenly i felt water in my lower regions, oh no please don't tell me-

"O-Officer, i think... i think my waters just broke." I whispered between cries. In a flash, the second he understood my words, he rushed me to an ambulance that was already there and i went to the hospital.

After many awful hours in labor, my baby girl was in my arms. 

She was so beautiful. She had my weird natural blue hair and her daddy's emerald green eyes.

I started crying when i looked at them. The love of my life was dead.

But i had someone who reminded me of him. With her here, by my side, i felt like Liu was here with me. I wasn't alone. I had this beautiful baby, and i was now in charge of her life.

The day i lost the most important person of my life, was the day i regained what would be the most important person in my life from now on. 

The second i looked at her i knew i would love her forever for all i had, for me and Liu.

"You're the most beautiful thing i've ever seen. Your daddy and I love you, Jackie Woods."
