MY UNTOLD SECRET

After our lovely adventure we went back into the VIP session and my friends who didn't even notice my disappearance saw me walking in and immediately dragged me to the dance floor with them.

I was feeling the best of me, I danced like it was my last night and then I joined my friends in drinking. we had our girls dare. Girls dare is something we always do, it's where each of us dares eachother and get the best in whatever activities we were engaged in.We dared ourselves alot in drinking.

I drank alot and danced all night. I could still sight him staring at me and this always made me weak, I felt like going back into his arms. He joined me on the dance floor and I could remember vividly how he stroked my hair from behind and kissed me from behind sweetly while we kept rocking to the beats all night long.

I woke up at jhenny's house, with a terrible headache the next morning. I had no idea what happened the rest of the night or how we even got home. Lola was still fast asleep and cythtia had ice blocks on her head as she laid on the floor.

'last night was crazy', Jennifer said as she walks into the room with ice on her head as well.

I couldn't even think clearly with the terrible headache I had and it still felt like I was hearing the music beats in my head. I wasn't even wearing the dress I had on the previous night I was in Jennifer's pyjamas. We all began laughing even though none of us could put together how our nights out ended.

My mom rang my cell phone as I picked her call I could hear her car horn which was also making noise in the background. I peeped out from the window and I could spot her range rover, my heart skipped so fast I was looking so undressed and rough my hairs were so unkept and I smelled so much of alcohol.

I couldn't say anything even though she kept saying I should come down stairs and she hanged up.

I rushed into the bathroom and began to wash myself and luck on my side Jennifer had a spare brush which I took from her shelf and opening it from its pack I began brushing my teeth with alot of paste in it.

I changed into the dress I brought with me the day before and I took my back pack and kissing my friends good bye I left.

Life seemed to be going pretty well even though i still couldn't forget the romantic moment I had with him. Jennifer had finally solved the long puzzle we always wanted to know. It was said that I threw up alot that night from the excess of alcohol i had and in total we were all wasted until an attendant called Jennifer's home at five in the morning and her nanny came over to get us and that was how we ended at her place. Her parents had no idea of this. Besides her parents were the workaholic type.

I feared immediately that Jennifer's nanny may tell my mum but Jennifer assured us that her nanny after much scolding decides to keep our secrets. What a relief I thought to myself.

Days passed and I still couldn't stop thinking about him, the painful part of it all is the fact that he was a stranger, I couldn't even get to know his name. I thought of going back to the club but I thought it wasn't the right thing to do. It was just a one night stand and I should start by getting it out of my head.

No matter what I did or how I tried to focus he was always there in my head I could feel his sensational touch and his smell which was now forever in my head. Regardless of the situation he was my first true love and I will forever have him in my heart, truly love at first sight is a real thing that real people experience and with the instant connection we had, it was a moment where nothing else mattered when I was with him and we spoke for the first time.

I woke up few days ago with a terrible headache and a mild pelvic cramping and discomfort without bleeding, to top it up I was constantly feeling tiredness all over me. Aside my frequent visit to the toilet to urinate I had this irritating feeling all over me. I suddenly didn't like how my room looked like.

My mom complained about my sudden mood swings and how I snapped at every little thing. I tried to clean my room because I didn't like the way it was looking but I kept getting angry because it still felt like I was making it worse.

I got down for breakfast and my mom had prepared my favourite meal. Bread and eggs. But it wasn't looking attractive to me I was immediately disgusted. I forced myself to have a bite but it tasted bad. My mom got so mad because she said I have been doing that lately and she had noticed and it felt like she wasn't cooking well she even got worried that something was bothering me but truly nothing was bothering me except the fact that I was irritated by the smell of her deodorant. I tried to hold my words back but I couldn't, she got so mad that I told her how bad she was smelling but she yelled back at me. 'This has always been my perfume for ages and you love the smell as well', she screams at the top of her voice. I felt bad instantly. my mum still felt maybe I was having a difficult time at school or it was that time of the month.

I got to school that day and my friends were telling me of their plans towards prom night which was in a month's time. we went to grab some food because I was famished and I could notice them staring at me.

'You literally eating the food you detest so much with passion', Lola said pointing at the empty plate at my front.

'And this happens to be the fifth plate you've had', cythtia added looking all shocked.

Yes I know I am not a fan of steak and spaghetti meat balls but i couldn't resist them and I couldn't explain my sudden love for spaghetti.

'Don't worry I won't get any allergy, there's a first time for everything", I told them as I placed another order for the sixth round. I was craving.

I had this metallic taste in my mouth and it wasn't something I loved.

my friends and I went to get few things for prom because the wears were a limited edition and we all wanted to dress all the same on the d-Day. suddenly i passed out at the mall, waking up I saw them all worried and with the help of few people who had helped me as well. My friends were worried for me.

'With your strange behaviour lately girl I think you should visit the hospital', Jennifer advised. but why do I need a doctor when i know am perfectly fine.

'You still havn't told us something', Lola said as she bends to talk.'Are you seeing someone', she asked

'No', I replied immediately in disbelief.

'Well if not so, then check yourself, how about getting a pregnancy test', Lola suggested.

Why on earth will they think of such in the first place. I have never been intimate with any one except with the one night stand which was weeks back. I got so angry and left them.

But to think of it, it totally scares the hell out of me, what if I was, what would happen to me? my parents will kill me!. I still have a month left in high school and what about the baby? I have no idea whatsoever where the stranger might be. it was a just a one night stand and i totally forgot to use a contraceptive there after I just got carried away and I never thought about this. The truth is I never even told my friends what had happened that night. this is a NIGHTMARE. I don't even know what it was like carrying a baby inside of your belly, but with all the possible signs I have been experiencing it all links to pregnancy.

My phone beeped and I picked it up it was a group message.'Not all of these symptoms are unique to pregnancy', cythtia messaged. it's very obvious that they were discussing about me.

'It is also important to note that early pregnancy does not always cause noticeable symptoms', Jennifer had replied to cythtia's text.

'The best way for a person to find out if they are pregnant is to take a pregnancy test', Lola suggested.

I got so angry reading all their messages. 'Last I remember Lola, rose has never been intimate before', Jennifer said trying to defend me.

I got more angrier as I turned my phone off flinging it away.

Now am here with a pregnancy test I got from the store, and I totally don't think I should do this but I just have to still staying positive.

Finally taking the bold step to prove them wrong. walking out of the bathroom with the stripe in my hand i grabbed the wrapper of the pregnancy test and reading the instruction now comparing it to the test already done. 'I AM PREGNANT'.

NIGHT MARE I THOUGHT TO MYSELF.

but it was the reality of life. I immediately called my friends over and they came over in less than an hour.

'How possible', Lola yelled.

finally confessing to them what I had with the stranger. first, cythtia got so angry because she's been admiring the stranger and she thinks I am not worth his type.

'Was he blind to have laid with you', she added looking so aggressive.

'I didn't call you for your jealous reviews', I replied her as she walks to me in anger and we almost got into a big fight.

'You're pregnant!', Lola said holding me back and calming me down.

''You have to get rid of it', Jennifer suggested.

'Never in a million years will I ever do that ', I screamed at her. I couldn't believe that just came out from Jennifer's mouth.

I was never getting into a dangerous act, I'll never kill an innocent being over my mistake, I'll never do something like murdering or even committing a sin. But I was scared too, what do I do?. I just kept crying.Lola consoled me and hugging me so close to her. Thereafter we all went in search of the stranger at the club but we never found him.

I kept going to school still hiding the secret from my parents and watching myself every morning in the mirror I could swear promising that I didn't want my stomach showing off already even though I was already putting up some weight and I still wanted to keep it a secret. But for how long?.

At school my teacher would notice I wasn't even paying attention in class. 'Its unlike you, you're the brightest of all your mate', she said 'I marked your papers yesterday and it was very poor', she added. Even my school performance was dropping. I couldn't confide in her because I was terrified, it was a shame.

she thought I was having issues with parent but my home was perfect. I just came up with an excuse that I was very ill, at first she wanted to call my mom but I told her I was better and promised to do better in the remaining examinations.

Weeks passed so fast like nothing had happened except the fact that I could feel something growing inside of me. The truth is I never gave up visiting the club daily maybe luck would connect me to him again but I never saw him ever again. my life was really going well till this happens now I have a part of him growing inside of me.

Why were my parents in school? I thought as my friends had informed me of their arrival. The principal had placed an emergency call to them, they were worried of my poorly sudden performance and they just needed to make sure my parents weren't the cause.

I got home that day with a terrible headache and so sick and decided to take a cool shower, after spending minutes in the shower I was getting dressed when my mum walked in to tell me our family doctor was around.

'Rose dress up quickly, the doctor will be up soon', she said as she walks out.

I thought the doctor was coming up alone but my mum and dad tagged along. I was terrified, the doctor took my blood samples and gave it to his assistant to take it to the lab.

After an hour of waiting and still getting coaching from the doctor who was trying to know if I was ok, a call came in.

He was a doctor he could already tell I was pregnant but he still needed to be sure and as he picked his phone call he kept nodding his head which made my heart pounder so fast.

He left the room with my parents and after few minutes I could hear my mum screaming at the top of her voice. I WAS DOOMED'!.
