It was a quarter to three on morning. Nicole was as sick as a dog. She got to toilet just in time. It was odd for her to throw up one of her favorite Mexican meals, the Tex Mex Burrito. It was 2 weeks ago that she mutually broke off her fling with August. She laid back down and her nausea subsided. The first thing she did that day was head to the 24 hour pharmacy and purchase a pregnancy test. When she looked at the stick after anxiously waiting five minutes, it read that she was pregnant. She went to the doctor a week and a half later and discovered that she was six weeks along.
She wasn't going to keep it. She didn't want to burden August with a baby. Especially since he was in a relationship of his own. Nicole's life was too busy for a child anyways. She didn't want to be a baby mama and either. This wasn't part of the plan to begin with. She terminated her pregnancy with August's baby.
Nicole had gotten August's P.O Box address from a fan. She had kept the pregnancy stick in a zip lock bag. A picture of it was not enough proof. She also didn't want to contact him by phone, nor did she want to meet up face to face with him either. She sent the test with a letter enclosed:.
August,
I'm just writhing to inform you that I found out that I was pregnant with your child after we cut ties. There's no need to panic. I ensured that this situation didn't turn out to be more than we mutually agreed to. I terminated the pregnancy. There you have it, no baby mama drama for you to deal with. Enjoy the rest of your life with your significant other and I hope she's the one. :-)
PS: Enclosed is the pregnancy test. I felt like a picture wouldn't have been enough proof.
Nicole
