CHAPTER 31

THE BIRTHDAY PARTYShe brought out the card from the side of the flower bouquet, and it was tied with a red ribbon. I had to untie it.I did, and the message said, “Happy birthday my queen, it's been such an amazing ride with you, I know we haven't really spent much time together but I love you, Will you be my girlfriend Zoe” with a love emoji.I smiled so hard until my cheeks started hurting.Mom and Rain were looking into my card and reading it with me as they saw the last message, which was “will you be my girlfriend.”Mom was like “wow” and then she made a funny face and went to sit down on the couch.“He's actually romantic, you know,” Rain said.“So what do you think I should tell him?” I asked Rain.“You know him better than Rain does, the ball is in your court,” mom responded.Anyways, I was gonna say yes, I already know.This is the first time mom is having such a conversation with us. She's actually very cool, I don't just know why she's been so strict.Do you think she's fr

CHAPTER 32

THE HICKEYIt was Jeffery. Rain had gone out to get him, and walking in, they both looked good together. He approached me and gave me a side hug while I was sitting.“Happy birthday, sis.”Wait… did he just call me sis? If only she knew.“Thanks, Jeff,” I replied.He sat close to Rain, holding her hands while they talked. I stared at them in jealousy. I believed he was already giving Rain butterflies in her stomach.Daisy and Danny were there talking and chatting. Guess what? I was the one all alone by myself, just on my phone trying to keep up a conversation with Kingsley as he asked me how the party was going.“I should go get the cake,” Daisy said as she left to go outside.Apparently, we hadn't read the club's event schedule for the day. It was a Friday, so it was their 18+ party.They were sharing condoms. It was funny, because what was I going to do with one?“What do we do with this?” Rain asked in a loud voice so that we could hear her.I laughed and didn’t say anything.“You

CHAPTER 33

THE MORNING AFTER THE PARTY “Ohhh, ouch, my head hurts,” Rain said, trying to stretch her body while touching her head.Apparently she’s dealing with a hangover. I got up before her. I was just too tired to get up from the bed; I just lay there. It's another day to be 20 by the way.Finally I stood up from the bed and walked towards the mirror in the hotel room. Gosh! I look crazy.My hair was scattered all over my head in a complete mess.The makeup from last night was a total disaster; my mascara had run down my face in black streaks, and my lipstick was smeared across my chin.“Jesus,” I said in a calm tone.The first thing that came to my mind was Jeffery. I just stood there staring at the mirror, wondering how I was going to face the day looking like that.So I entered the bathroom and tried washing everything off, but it was as though my plan wasn’t working, because the makeup had become worse by rubbing all over my face. I had to use the soap they’d given us when we were check

CHAPTER 34

RAIN PASSED OUTI was just on my phone during the ride home, looking out the window.When we arrived home, I was about to open the door. “Zoe, are you good?” Jeffrey asked.“Yes, I am.”“I feel weak, I feel like throwing up,” Rain said.“Just hang in there till we get inside.”“Yeah, take care of yourself,” Jeffery said and pecked her on the cheek.Wait, what did he just do? How did they get here? I thought it was just shaking hands for now.“You girls, take care. I will see you some other time,” he said.I got down from the car. Jeffery had gotten down to open the door for Rain, like the princess that she is.She got down, and he closed the door, went back in, waved at us, and then drove out.Mom was out and was about to open the gate so that she could leave for work.She opened the gate for us, and we went in. Rain hugged her.“Good morning, Mommy.”“Hmmm, your breath stinks. Did you take alcohol?”She shook her head.“I need a yes or a no answer.”I maintained my distance because I

CHAPTER 35

CHAPTER 35IS RAIN PREGNANT?WTF is he saying? Pregnant? How?A lot of thoughts bumped into my head. I kept thinking if that was true or not. I tried as much as I could not to believe that. I mean, I knew she had sex, quite alright, and I gave her pills, so what is this?I wasn’t going to believe that, anyways.“No, she’s not,” I responded. Before I was done talking, Mom grabbed Jeffery by his collar and was asking him, “You did this to her, right?” Embarrassing the innocent guy, like what the fuck, this woman has gone nuts.“Can you stop? Just stop it.”She left him.“It’s not even up to three days yet of them knowing each other, so how come he’s the one? That is, if Rain is actually pregnant.”“Can I see my daughter?” Mom asked.I turned to the doctor. “This is a very wrong outcome. My sister can’t be pregnant, and if she’s not pregnant and you’re saying that she is, then you will have a bigger fish to fry.”He left, and Mom followed him.Jeffery was embarrassed, but he’s a gentle g

Chapter 36

THE RESULT.The environment was tense. We were walking helter-skelter at the hospital, restless.Mom didn't come out of the room where Rain was before she was taken to the scan room. She might probably be thinking, that's fine anyways.Jeffrey walked closer to where I was standing and asked, “What if she's pregnant?” My heart skipped for a bit.“Jeffrey, even you?”“No, no, don't get me wrong. I'm just concerned.”“Rain is not pregnant,” I answered with so much conviction.“Okay, if you say so. I just hope the result doesn't say otherwise.”“Fuck, can you stop talking?” I told him harshly. He stepped back a little.“Sorry about that.”His response made me feel guilty. I shouldn't have spoken to him that way, in as much as I'm going through a lot of pressure at the moment.The door opened. The doctor was about coming out. Immediately, I rushed closer to him and started asking him so many questions.“Is she okay? What does the result say? Is she truly pregnant?” I just needed to get my

CHAPTER 37

THE PRANK IDEA.As soon as he left, I raised Rain's hand and sat beside her. She was looking pale and looking thin; she must have lost some weight in just a few hours.“You're the best sister, for real.”“I know, and you can say that again.”“I wasn't feeling myself, but I watched how you rejected the result.”“Because that wasn't yours.”What if Rain was pregnant? What would I have done? Maybe shut up and never speak again.“You know I had unprotected sex.”“You did, and we prevented the pregnancy.”“How do you feel now?”“Better. At least my heart isn't pounding anymore.” We laughed.“You would have become a mother.”“Well, I'm not. Not yet, please.”“Jeffrey is actually a nice guy. I love him for you.”“We can be just friends. I'm still in a relationship, don't forget that.”“Rain, Jasper hasn't called you for hours, and you call him your man?”“I love him.”“I know you do, but what if he's actually withdrawing because he's gotten what he wanted?”“And what do you mean?”“Never min

CHAPTER 38

ZOE's POVI suggested it, but come to think of it, am I not going too far?“What?”“Yes, it's the same thing as telling him you're pregnant.”“Zoe, it's not. Will you volunteer yourself? Since he doesn't know you.”“Ohh no, please, I can't. I think we should go with your idea.”“Please, let's eat,” Rain said.We finished eating, and she made room for me while I lay on the bed with her. But I wasn't sleeping; I was texting with Kingsley.“I miss you,” he sent.“I miss you too, darling. My sister isn't feeling too well.”“Gosh, what happened?”“The alcohol at the party had an effect on her.”“Okay, we will see tomorrow then?”“Yes, once I get out of the hospital.”Mom walked in. She was back from work, as it was getting late. I thought she wouldn't come back, but she came back with fruit.“Good evening, Mom,” Rain greeted. I didn't say shit; I was mad at her.“Good evening, Zoe.” No response.“Are you feeling any better?” she asked Rain.She had nothing to say to me. Obviously she's at

CHAPTER 39

DAISY’s ABORTIONI was dumbfounded. I didn't know what my response would be, I didn't know what to say, the same pregnancy that was making me go crazy yesterday?So she was actually pregnant before the party, because she would tell me she got pregnant yesterday.“You're not saying anything?” Like, omg, what am I supposed to say?“I'm just processing the whole thing, thinking of what to say.”“What should I do? I wasn't careful.”“I thought as much. How come? Is Danny aware?”“I haven't told him yet. I just don't know how he would react.”“Don't tell him yet. Are you sure with what you're saying?”“Babe, I'm very sure. I missed my period, my period is 1 week late.”“Ohh, still early.”“What do you mean?”“I mean the pregnancy. So what do you want to do?”“I'm not keeping it, so I will..”I had to interrupt her.“I'm very sure you haven't done it before, so why do you want to endanger your life and the kid's?”“What kid? It's just a fetus, and I want to take it out.”Oh wow, Daisy is so

CHAPTER 40

THE ABORTION EFFECTThe nurse instructed her on how she would take the medicine, by putting it under her tongue, which she did before we entered inside the house.She entered my room while I went to check up on Rain, because I had my own key to the house before I left so I won’t disturb her when I get home.“You’re back?”“Yes I am, how are you feeling now?”“Much better, how did it go?” she asked.How did what go? Was I supposed to tell her the whole gist? I thought of what to say to her for a second. I’m just going to lie at the end of the day.“She’s in my room.”“I should go see her,” she said, getting up from the bed.“No, no, just sit here, I think she’s sleeping already.”“I just want to go to your room and be there.”What more could I say to her? I can’t even stop her from entering my room.“Okay.”We both left her room to enter my room. On getting there, Daisy was laying on the bed, but she wasn’t sleeping.“How are you feeling?” Rain asked her.She nodded and gave me a facia
