4 Whose Was It?

Within that few seconds that seemed like minutes dragging,many thoughts went through my head.

"OMG!!Who????When???Whose the father???"

"Sh*t.What do I do now??"

After hundreds of men, this was my first pregnancy. Shock,frustration,remorse,fear all flitted through me. Then, I calmed down and practically listed all the pros and cons of my options.

As much as I hate abortion. I had no choice. I am not willing to give away my child, I can't hide my pregnancy, the guys I slept with either don't answer my calls,deny everything or blame me for accusing them when I'm a s**t in their eyes. The best excuse one gave me is ,"I did that to you so that I don't have to get married to my fiancéé."

"Ha-ha", I laughed sarcastically at his reason as well as mocking my own self.

Because of my morning sickness, I had to miss lectures and lessons held in the morning.The school called me for counselling due to my MCs and attendance.

The incident that I will never forget is during my supplementary examination which is a retake of the subject that I failed in my original exam.

I was thinking of my answer to the question when I saw a small slip of paper on my answer sheet,

"Please report to the counseller's office today as you missed yesterday's session and we have informed your parents."

My mind went blank.Literally blank. I couldn't do my paper anymore. I was in a panic. Once the time for us to submit the paper came, I submitted my incomplete answer sheet and left without a backward glance to that councilor's office.

There, I found out my parents are now aware of my pregnancy and I raged and cried in the room.

"WHY??!!!WHY DID YOU TELL THEM??!!I WAS F**CKING STUDYING FOR MY PAPER TODAY THAT'S WHY I DIDN'T ATTEND.MY MIND WAS FILLED WITH MY EXAM!!"

"WHERE'S YOUR CONFIDENTIALITY???!!" I cried and ran off.

At home, after dragging my sluggish body, I opened the door to my parent sitting on the sofa. I pretended not to know anything and wanted to head back to my room when my dad called.

"Iris".

I halted and turned to look at him.

"Your school called to inform us just now. What do you have to say?Who is the guy?!" he adked in a controlled voice. My mom started crying and wailing at his side.

"I have an operation tomorrow morning,there is no need for concern anymore" ,I answered and walked hurriedly to my room and shut the door to their angry voices. I squatted against the wooden door and broke down crying quietly.
