'Kassy, calm down, nobody hates you, we just really want the best for you. If you can't even take care of yourself, how can you take care of a child?' She asked.
That was the first time I looked at it from that angle. I had always thought babies were not a lot of work and money, but I knew how much Alicia spent on food, water, diapers, and more.
Surprisingly, it was even somewhat strange that she wasn't bankrupt already.
'I know you make a lot of sense and that's great but I still didn't think my family will want me to terminate my pregnancy. I needed your support more than anything.'
'And, we'll support you. You don't want to miss the eulogy session so just go. And don't tell mum I told you anything, she's not very happy with my sudden blabbing mouth.' She laughed.
I laughed too. Mum trusted Alicia to a fault but she was willing to throw it all out for me.
