Who is responsible for this thing growing in your stomach? Mom asked me for the hundredth time since we woke up and she caught me vomiting again. Am not pregnant mom,am too young to be pregnant now.
She insisted we go to the hospital for test and my worst fear were confirmed.The test showed that I am a month and 3 weeks pregnant. Mom fainted from the shock but I don't feel anything yet,my emotions are everywhere.
Let me introduce myself, am Peace Benjamin, I'm 17 years old and in my final class in secondary school. My family haven't made it to the top rich people list yet but we are financially stable, and with how ambitious dad is,I know we will be there in the next few years. My parents have only two girls, and am the youngest. Mom keeps reminding me how I came after 7 years of having my elder sister and how they were filled with expectations and prayers.
Immediately we got home,I rushed off to Mike's place, Mike is my boyfriend,his the only child of his parents and well,the father have made a name for himself in the business world. I met him at home alone and told him of our predicament, after all my education is at risk. Babe don't worry about anything okay, we are in this together, though I don't know how my parents will react but I will talk to them tonight okay; I nodded and left for my place, to dance to the tune of the music playing in my life. When my parents came back,my mom tearfully told dad everything, including how I have refused to tell her who is responsible, for the first time in my 17 years,I saw my dad's eyes turn red.
Peace Benjamin!! Is what your mother saying really happening under my roof? I was already shaking, do you want me to repeat myself? He asked again, yes sir,no sir, I mean yes Daddy, am sorry,am so sorry dad. The only person you should say sorry to is your self, so you don't want to say who the riffraff that put you in this condition is, or you turned to a prostitute under my nose?
Daddy and Mommy am sorry, (I cried on my knees) I know I have disappointed you but am sorry,I didn't mean for it to happen. Mom was crying too but my dad's eyes were still red in color. Woman, if your this daughter still refuses to say what I want to hear by tomorrow evening, then I don't want to come back and see her in my house. I can't say anything yet till I hear from Mike.
