"I am pregnant, " I say looking into his eyes intensely but his face is emotionless. 

"what? "he asks stunned, he paces around for a few minutes "I can't take care of a child right now" he snaps holding the office table tightly. 

"We have to because I have no way to go," I say pleading for acknowledgment and understanding. 

"what do you mean, " he said eyeing me suspiciously. 

"my parent disowned me," I say looking down in shame.                      

"I will take you in but don't expect me to care for you and your baby because all this means nothing to me" he glanced at me before walking out of his office. 

Tears run down my cheek, feeling of embarrassment, and lost claws in my heart. 

I lost everything my family, my self-esteem, I feel lost and worthless.

Most of all I lost love.

Verdict of Love

"Baby, Mommy is going out, be a good boy okay," I say placing a kiss on his forehead as he sleeps in his crib" Chole I will be back for lunch, call if you need anything" 


"Okay have a nice day at work," she says with a warm smile before walking into the kitchen going back to prepare breakfast. 


I pick up my bag dressed in my usual black jeans, red T-shirt, no time for makeup, and my hair tied into a high bun with my black bag hanging on my shoulders before leaving walking the short distance towards the bus stop.


It is a very busy day in a restaurant with staff running around trying to meet the orders of today's customers.


Checking the time 11:00 am meaning my shift is over, sighing tiredly I place the apron and notepad on the counter getting ready to leave" Shiloh I need you here" Jane calls from the kitchen gaining my attention.


"Coming," I say going towards the kitchen.
