"Oh my god Carmen not you to." I whined, falling out on the couch. Laughing with Nique, she hit my thigh.
"Airi stop being a big baby! We grown, it's okay." She laughed. Sighing I massaged my temples, setting the ultrasound on the table. These bitches were pregnant.
"You might as well join the babymamma crew!" Gawking at Carmen, I waved her off.
"Tuh! Ain't no body putting a baby in this until I know it's really okay?" Rolling there eyes, they went back to gushing about there plans for a baby shower and gender reveal. Meanwhile I sat and marinated on what could've been. It was bittersweet but, unlike them I wasn't in the right place to care for a child. My foundation was broken at the time.

A I R I•Pushing the heavy door to my school open, I waved to my Mother as she pulled off.
"Don't forget, Mom said to go the library. I have piano lessons today so she won't be coming to get us until 4." Groaning alongside my brother Damon, I nodded to Dana as we went our separate ways. I was already late, so I made a pit stop in the girls bathroom. I honestly hadn't been feeling to well. I knew why though, but I didn't like to think about it. Splashing water on my face, I took a few deep breaths before steadying myself and heading to class. All eyes darted to me as I pushed the door open, and handed my Teacher my late slip.
"Sit." Was all she said before continuing to jot down equations on the board. I don't know why they gave me Math as my first class, but I hated it. I couldn't focus on math this early in the morning. But I sucked it up and wrote down the pages for our homework and started on the notes.
"Is that the girl from that video?"
"Bitch yes! I think so." Swallowing the knot in my throat, I glanced over my shoulder to see a group of girls starring at me and pointing. I was in this class alone and had none of my friends here. It was my senior year, and I just prayed they didn't bring back those memories. I begged my mother all summer long to allow me to Transfer to Haze. I don't know what I'd do if those videos resurfaced. Sighing I turned my attention back to the teacher as my stomach churned. I couldn't wait to graduate.
Two months later
Turning and tossing around my bed, I nearly chewed a hole through my lip as tears soaked my pillow. It was Friday and I was trying desperately to force myself to just go to sleep but I couldn't. I told Tray today. I told him that I was pregnant and...he just stared at me. He didn't say a word and when Chanel met up with us, he just looked away from me and left me standing there all alone. I don't know what I expected, I don't know why I even assumed different. But it hurt nonetheless. To make matters worse, I only had Gilly to lean on. My stomach was starting to grow now, and I was literally sick over the thought of telling my parents. But I just may, because the more my anxiety and stress took over me, the more my stomach began to hurt. It was late though so I ignored it, I would wait till morning and call Gilly. He would give me advice on what to do.
•••"Airi? Airi!" Sighing, I forced my eyes open as my mom stood in my doorway.
"Yes?" I croaked. Sighing, she looked at her watch.
"It's 11am, it's time for you to get up. I need you to take your sister to her doctors appointment for me. I have a meeting to get to. C'mon! Her doctors appointment is at 12:30." Whining into my pillow, I wrapped my arms around my stomach as it ached.
