How Did I Fall In Love With You

�Nadia what�what�s wrong? What happened?� she asked as she followed her into her bedroom.

�Nothing� she said as she climbed back into bed and pulled the covers over her head still crying a little.

�You look terrible, this is not you, what happened?� she looked around and found the paper on the dresser and she gasp as she said �Oh my God�

Nadia popped up out the bed still crying �I have no idea what I am going to do and when I tell you who�s baby it is you are going to hate me.�

�I am not going to hate you Nadia you are like a sister to me, whose is it?�

�It�s your cousin Bren�

Brenda jumped up very quickly as she said almost yelling �What! No way, it�s you�you sleep with so many�it�s not my cousin baby Dia�

�You only call me that when you are mad at me and yes it is your cousin�s baby�

Brenda yelled, �It�s not!� Nadia just flopped down back into bed as Brenda now feeling sorry for her said, �I�m sorry Nadia.�

�Just go away Bren� she said crying into the pillow.

Brenda sat her purse down and pulled Nadia up from the bed as she said �No, if you think it�s his baby you have to call him.�

�What?! I don�t know your cousin�s number, I don�t even know his last name, I don�t know his age, his career�nothing.�

�I can�t believe this, What are you gonna do?�

�I don�t know�

�First we�re gonna make sure it�s his and I�m going to call him and you�re both getting a blood test, clean yourself up, let�s go.�

Three hours later they were all seated in Howie�s living room. Brenda stood up and started pacing the room as she yelled, �You both deserve this you know�.you both really fucked up this time, you don�t even know each other. You two don�t use protection.�

�We did� Nadia said still trying to figure out how she let herself get into something like this. She was always so careful.

�Except for once, just once.�

�You�re both Catholic right and having a baby out of wedlock is looked down upon�and Howie you know your parents and Nadia you mother will die.�

Howie knowing she was right quickly said �I�m not marrying her if that�s what you are thinking Brenda.�

�I�m not marrying you, I can barely stand you.�

�Well you could really stand me that weekend a few months back ��

�Ah shut up�

�Stop it okay� Brenda said firmly and they both did as she finished �Well you can get an abortion?�

�No, I did that once and I swear I will never do it again.� She said burying her face back in her hands.

�Well you two could put the baby up for adoption�

He quickly spoke up �I can�t live with myself knowing I have a child somewhere and ..�

He didn�t bother to finish as Brenda said, �Well marriage is the only way.�

They wanted everything to be as low keyed and secret as possible so they got married by a priest right in his living room. They really didn�t want to do this they barely knew each other. They had only known each other 3 days. When he saw her and Brenda together when they we all younger the most they said to each other was �hi� and �bye�.

She was moving a few of her things into his place and he came right in with her but started start towards the stairs and she said, �Do you care to help?�

�No� he said as he continued up the remainder of the stairs and she jumped a little when she heard him slam the door. She moved all her things in and was very tired once she was done. She laid on the couch still very much angry with herself and he came down and she quickly sat up �You don�t mind that I ��

�Yes I do mind, why are you bothering my things�

�I just ��

�I don�t care, you didn�t ask me so leave my stuff alone, remember this is temporary only 2 years and that�s it.�

�God knows I can�t wait until it�s over, you�re such an ass.�

He just walked out the door once again slamming it behind himself and she started the pictures she had paid hundreds of dollars for, down.

She decided she would go to sleep and this horrid nightmare would be over but she could not sleep so she sat on the couch waiting TV when he came in with some girl and she heard maid come out his mouth and they both disappeared upstairs. When she saw the girl leave no more than a hour later she sat up and then he came down and she said �How could you?�

�How could I what?� he said as he walked over and she stood up.

�How could you bring that chick here and have sex with her like I am not even here that is so disrespectful.�

�This is my place, I can do what I want when I want you being here does not change anything.�

He walked out the room and she followed him as she said �Why are you so shitty to me?�

He turned to her shocked she had asked him that and he said almost yelling �Cause you ruined my life.�

�I did not get pregnant on my own.�

�But if you were not such a whore this would not have happened in the first place.� He said and now she was the one that stood there shocked as he disappeared up the stairs and she later went into her room and she could not hold back the tears as she cried.
