Chapter 71

Angela

I'm pregnant.

It had been two days since I made the discovery, and I was ready to accept it. Hiding away and hoping the problem would go away wouldn't do anything, and it was also unlike me. There was no reason why I should hide. Well, besides the very valid fear that I would get in trouble with the college for breaking the rules, but it would be better just to face the consequences. It would be too pathetic of me to let some little girl blackmail me out of jealousy.

Because I was ready to go back, when Dad asked where I was, I finally told him. I didn't tell him I'd be making it back in time for the wedding; I thought it would be a nice surprise. I felt butterflies in my stomach at the thought of seeing Ben again, but it wasn't just anxiety, it was excitement, too.
