At some point, it becomes unsettling.I hate how uneasy it makes me feel.The drive home is quiet, but it feels louder somehow.Finally, the car pulls to a stop in front of my apartment.I reach for the door, no hesitation whatsoever. I just want to get away from him.He steps out of the car and I think I heard him call me but I don't stop walking.I shuffle to get my key out.As soon as I unlock the door, I hear him say. “Goodnight. See you tomorrow?”I roll my eyes so hard I'm surprised they don't fly out of my skull.See you tomorrow? I almost scoff out loud but I don't.I just step in, glare at him and slam the door shut.Inside, I walk further in. But halfway through, something makes me stop and turn back.The next second, I'm running to the w

And it tickles sometimes,” I say.Melissa smiles. “I'm sure he's going to be running around the entire house when he's older,”Well, yeah.Maybe not.But ever since I found out I was having a boy, it's been overwhelming.I thought I was going to be a girl mom.

    ***~~Meghan~~***“Meghan?” “Meghan?”I blink, turning to face Melissa.Her eyes narrow. “Are you okay?”“I'm fine,” I cut in.“You don't look fine to me,” she lets out, studying me. “You're overprinting and that's not you,”Shit.I tap on the printer and pull the extra copies out.It's been over a week since I found out I'm pregnant. It's been tough. I can't stomach anything and it feels tiring to not enjoy meals without feeling the need to projectile vomit.I don't know what to do.I'm not sure I can handle being a mom right now.Yet, I feel this guilt eating at me anytime I consider not keeping it. Still, I wasn't ready for all that.Last night I texted Delilah with a burner phone just so she stops worrying.I texted my mother too.I couldn't keep mute, it was selfish.But that's it.That's all I could.
