Kristina Cohen

We came back with the pregnancy test. While Rosie was busy in the bathroom, I was standing outside the bathroom- actually she made me stand there- Telling her about meeting Timothy.

" And that's it. Nothing really happened. I just wanted to have fun, since you weren't in the mood, so I started telling that story when meeting Timothy came to my mind and I told you his name and what he looked like and yeah. You know the rest." I practically yelled as she was inside and I was outside and...since it was Rosie.

She hummed in response," Though you two just met, I really think you should go for him. From what you're telling me he is super super hot and you've been single for four years now. And here, you have an advantage since you're friends with his grandma. How old is he?"

" Um, From what Beatrice once said he must be 27 or something...I'm not sure though."

" That's great!"

Oh well. Here we go. Again. With Rosie." Exactly what is great about Timothy being 27?"

She huffed," Being 27 and single, means his grandma is nagging him to get married soon talking about wanting to see grandchildren and this stuff before death, and yeah. That's it. So, she herself might be looking for girls so she can suggest them to him and you know the rest."

" Rose! How the hell do you know he's single? And why the hell are you talking about getting married? For God's sake I'm 21! Do you even hear yourself? Getting married? Having kids? I think you've probably hit your head somewhere." I yelled, and this time it wasn't because there was a door between us. And she knew only when I'd call her Rose.

"Hey don't call me that! I was just saying, you don't need to get married and pregnant just tomorrow."

" Rose!" What's wrong with her? "I said don't call me that! Oh Kris. I'm gonna see the test. Come in please." Yeah, bipolar much.

As I was about to turn the door handle, the sound of a scream came out. From inside. Yeah, Rosie's scream. I hurried inside to see what had happened.

There Rosie stood with the pregnancy test in her hand and tears in her eyes. I got closer and asked," Hey what is it? What's the result?"

She looked at me for a second." I'm pregnant Kristina! I'm fucking pregnant Kris!" She shouted.

My Lord, I'm so happy for her! I hugged her and kissed her cheek," Rosie, that's great. You're gonna be a wonderful mum. I'm so happy for you." I whispered into her ear.

I wiped her tears and she smiled," Thanks babe," Her smile faded," But how am I supposed to tell Ben about this?"

"It's alright you'll tell him somehow. But for now what are you gonna do? Wanna go out, somewhere? Or you wanna stay in?"

Rosie snickered," C'mon girl I wanna have fun! But since this," She pointed at her stomach," doesn't allow any clubbing or getting wasted, we will watch a movie while eating shit ton of ice cream!"

" Wow excellent Rosie! Very praisable indeed." I clapped for her. She bowed dramatically and we both giggled.

Let the fun begin...

It was already afternoon when I left Rosie. I took the day off from work, actually Ben asked so, because of Rosie, and I didn't have to return there.
