Chapter 29: The Worst Day Ever

“So, I know you know it’s bad, but I still want to prepare you for the sh*t storm coming your way,” Hannah said, holding my hand.

“How bad could it be?” I asked, hopeful and desperate for some leniency from the rumor mill. Hannah shook her head and broke out the doe eyes, meaning it was the worst I could imagine.

“Well, congratulations, you’re pregnant,” she said while doing jazz hands. I slowly hit my head on the locker.

“That was just awesome, and who is the father?” I asked.

“It’s a tie between four different guys, including a college guy you met at a party,” Hannah explained. Sharing the false rumors with me was not helping.
