I pulled in the school parking lot and threw my car in park. "What's wrong? You was just fine a min ag-" ''I'm ok!" she interrupted. "Tash you can tell me anything,we damn near spent our life together why are you holding back?" "I killed it!" She sunked her body in to the seat with tears pouring down her face. "I didn't even keep it long enough to know the gender, and I killed it" she whimpered hysterically. I could tell her choice was affecting her badly she was clearly in no mood for talking let along an annoying school lecture! I made the choice of ditching school and returning to my place. After a while we arrived at my place, no one could miss it. It was the biggest house on the block. It was a Peach colored three story house with a tall picket fence protecting the beautiful home garden my mother tended to. We got out the car and headed up the stairs. After a few awkward mins I broke the silence ..."So uhh popcorn and a comedy?" "It was Trey!" she mumbled. "I know that's what you want to know don't pretend hope!" "You want me to explain how stupid I was to lay down with a guy whose mother I never met!" I slammed the cabinet door shut. "And the same guy who beat you senseless!" I added "We all do stupid things when we're in love hope." I walked over to where she was sitting "Tash I'm sorry.I'm just upset he's the reason I couldn't get into my dream school!" More tears ran down as if I had worsened it! "Soo 3 weeks ago you were so called job hunting all day for a second job you were getting an abortion weren't you?" she nodded with a sense of shame. "Tash Did he know you was pregnant?" "I never told him..I didn't want to be tied to him.I just couldn't. We decided to go with the first trimester surgical abortion!" I stared with a confused look. "We?" "The abortion doctor!" Tash responded like there was nothing wrong with what she just said. "Wait she didn't try to change your decision as much as possible?" I waited for her response but she wasn't speaking fast enough for me. "What's the doctor's name tash?" "Her name is Dr. Carson well Dianna carson! Why What's the deal?" I had heard the name before it was so familiar but my head wouldn't let me be great! I proceeded to ask "Is she darkski- there was a loud knock at the door I glanced at tash "You sure Trey doesn't know?" The knocked repeated again. "Open the fucking door you lowdown bitches!"
