I pull into the school lot and park. 1 get out and head into school. Walking to my locker, I try and think about what I’m gonna do. Keep the baby? Or put it up for adoption? I sigh and shake my head. I open my locker and grab my books. I turn around to be met with red dye 40. I wipe the slushy away from my face and open my eyes to find Cole.
““” he says with a smile. I feel Emily rest her hand on my shoulder soothingly. She gently rubs there as he walks away, I stare at his back as he walks awar, laughing and high fiving the other meatheads he hangs out with. I shake my head.
“Come on Morgan, let’s get you cleaned up” Emily says. I nod, but even Emily can’t wash away all my problems.
“Morgan Maror, please report to the office.” the lady over the intercom says. Emily waves to me as I leave. I give her a smile as I exit the class and walk to the office. I enter to see my Mom chatting it up with Ms. Jenkins, the office lady. I clear my throat. Mom turns around and smiles at me.
“Hey honey, ready to go?” she asks me. I nod as she turns to Ms. Jenkins
“Bre Holly!” she says with a smile as we leave. Ms. Jenkins waves goodbye.
We pull up into the parking lot of the doctor’s office and my mom parks. I put my phone away and get out of the car with my Mom. We walk into the office filled with pregnant women. I look around. I’m gonna be this fat.
I sign in as my Mom sits down and picks up a magazine on parenting, Only her. I laugh quietly at her ridiculousness. I walk and sit next to her after signing in. I pull my phone and debate over telling Cole, I mean, he is the father. I sigh. Come on Morgan, you can do this.
Hey, I know u dont wanna talk, but I’m at an ultrasound. It’s at the doctors office on 11th street. Not 2 late 2 late 2 show.
Morgan
I put down my phone and glance around, trying to picture myself being that pregnant. I sigh and hear my phone ping. I look down with high hopes.
Hey girl, everything okay?
Emmy
I groan and put my phone down as my name is called. I put my phone in my pocket and get up with my Mom, and walk to the doctor.
“Hi, I’m Doctor Fields, are you Morgan?” the young doctor asks me. I nod and give her a small smile.
“Yeah, um, this is my Mom, Kelsey Mayor.” I say and gesture to my Mom. She shakes her hand and turns to me.
“Okay Morgan, ready?” she asks me. I nod and follow her inside the office with my Mom. The smell of antiseptic hits
my nose to
too strongly.
“Go ahead and lay down on the table Morgan.” Dr. Fields says. I nod and walk to the table before laying down.
பா
“Okay Morgan, how long ago was your last intercourse?” she asks me, okay then.
“Um, about a month and two weeks I think.” I say awkwardly. She laughs and smiles.
“Don’t worry hon, no one is gonna hear this stuff. she says. I nod awkwardly.
“Okay. How old are you?” she asks me
“17.” I answer. She nods and writes it down on a plece of paper.
“Okay, now, go ahead and lay down and get comfortable while I get everything ready, then we’ll start” she says. I nod and lay down and stare at the door, silently hoping he’ll come.
“Morgan, what are you staring at?” My Mom asks me. I look at her and force a smile.
