There is a loud knocking on my door the next morning which makes me awake with a jolt.
"Bella baby I'm off but I just wanted to check on you and see if you are ok?"
{Where is she going?}
"Today is the big day." Bianca screeches, almost as if she can hear my thoughts.
{Oh the job interview.}
I face palm.
{Stupid me.}
"I'm ok goodbye, good luck, kick ass." I mumbled to my pillow but I think it was loud enough to hear because Bianca replied.
"I sure will B. Don't worry I'll bring home celebrating or grieving ice cream, which ever the case may be, there is going to be ice cream."
I can almost feel her happiness. Bianca is a big fan of sweets, I'm not saying I don't like them but on Bianca's level of intake, it's quite scary.
"Bye B."
"Bye."
I'm supposed to go to class today but I don't think I'm ready to face the music and all those eyes staring at me, along with all the mean comments.
I'll probably check school off my list of things to do this week. It's not hard, I'll just stay home and wait for all this to blow off.
*************
While watching romance movies on Netflix, Bianca barges in. {Again.}
"Guess who just got a job." She said, doing a booty shake to the side with her hands in the air and of course in them was a tub of ice cream.
"I'm so happy for you Bianca. You deserve this soo much."
"Thanks B, what are you watching?"
"Crazy beautiful you." I say while munching on a Dorito.
"Ouu la la" she shuffles to the couch with the ice cream and two spoons in hand.
{When did she grab those?}
We spend the rest of the day watching cute romance movies on Netflix that will make your heart want to burst with happiness and eating Doritos with ice cream.
{Not the best combination but I'll take it.}
*****ONE WEEK LATER*****
"Inhale Bella, exhale."
I open my car door and walk into my college. I catch people staring at me but I pay them no attention as I take long strides into my lecture hall.
Everyone turns in their seats and their eyes follow my every move as I take a seat in the back. I hear some whispers and some one yells. "SLUT!!"
Half of the class starts laughing but professor brings them to a halt when he walks into the lecture hall.
{Thank God for that.}
Half an hour into the lecture, I am rushing out of the auditorium because people won't stop pointing fingers at me and giving rude comments.
As I hurry out a wave of nausea hits me when I enter the sun.
"Ugghh." I place my finger tips on my temples and rub on them.
I try making my way to the car but I'm too weak so I pass out.
***********
"Beep beep beep.."
I blink open my eyes.
"That's good your awake, you almost gave us a scare. We checked your vitals, you are all good." An older lady said smiling brightly at me while going through her clipboard.
"How did I get here?"
"Well, they wheeled you in on a stretcher." she says with a giddy obvious tone.
"Actually some one from your school is outside waiting for you, he seems to be the one who brought you here." I try to get up.
"No, no, no, there is no need for you to get up. Come on sit, sit, calm down. We will prescribe some drugs to you that are baby friendly. You really need to start eating more, resting more and in general, keep the stress to the barest minimum." She ends with another bright smile, showcasing her pearly white teeth.
{Wait.}
"What do you mean 'baby friendly'?" I ask looking confused.
"Wait, don't tell me you didn't know?"
I shake my head "know what?"
"You are pregnant!!"
