Thirteen and Pregnant [Chapter 3]

"Hello?" I said confused.

"Hey. Is this Deidra Smith?" he asked.

"Yeah, is this... Eli?" I said sarcastically.

"I hope so. How you been, cutie?" He said.

"Uh...well...you really want to know, or do you want me to keep it from you? Cause I will... as a matter of fact, I perfer it for the 'faint of heart'."

"Just tell me." he said.

"Im Pregnant, Eli." I said tearing up nervously.

and then I knew how much of a coward he was.

He hung up immediatly.

I bursted out crying. the tears filling my eyes were set free. I knew he wasn't going to be a man about the situation. In the back of my mind there was a light of hope that shinned through the cluster of doubts. I was a single mother.

My mother soon came in with a box full of old pictures and baby stuff. I was plundering through all of the mess when I came across the picture. It was the picture that once hung up in my and my sister's room. "What sister" is probably what your asking. Well I once had a sister.

Her name was Destiny. She was five years older than me. We shared a room. Destiny was sixteen years old when she left. My mother and her always had problems. I havent heard from her in forever. Last I heard she was still with the same guy.

I found blankets and clothes. I gave my mother back the box and told her that I would buy new stuff. The only thing she didn't get back was the picture of me and Destiny.
