Cruel Destiny

Natasha POV

I rested my head on the cold wall and wiped my mouth with my palm.

After a few minutes, I stood on my shaky legs with the support of the wall and flushed it.

I walked toward the washbasin and brushed my teeth and washed my face.

I looked at the mirror who was reflecting my pale face. There were bags under my eyes and I was indeed looking sick.

It has been 2 months since my last date. I haven't heard anything from him or gotten any messages.

I have been puking for the last two weeks and now I am totally drained out.

I wanted to rest but I can't just take an off. I couldn't concentrate on anything except him.

I wiped the tears from my bloodshot eyes. I had told myself many times to forget him but still, I just can't forget him.

I heard my phone ringing. I sighed and dragged myself to the bedroom and picked up my phone from the bed.

It was from Kelly. I picked it up and in a tired voice said "Hello"

"Are you still throwing up?" She asked me in a worried tone.

I laid down on my bed and said "Yes Kelly. I am puking my guts out. And let's not forget this tiredness."

"Naty, go to a pharmacy and buy two pregnancy tests." As soon as she said those words, my eyes got widened.

Is she telling me what I am thinking? I can't be right. I can't be... Pregnant.

I sat up and suddenly felt my head spinning and again laid down.

"I can't be pregnant, Kelly. I had taken the morning-after pill the next day." I whispered.

The next day after our lovemaking, I had taken the pill as I didn't want to take any chances.

"You had done good work, Naty. But still, you have to take that test as pills are not that effective." She said softly.

I bit my lips and said "ok. I am going to purchase the test, Kelly. I'll talk to you after taking the test."

I bid bye to her and pulled my hair into a ponytail and wore my shoes.

I walked out of the house and went to the near pharmacy. I went toward the test section and got confused as there are many types of tests.

A lady who was in her mid-30s smiled at me. I gave her a small smile and she picked two test kits and handed it to me.

I thanked her and she just gave me a smile and said: "Use both of them for the accurate result."

I nodded and walked toward the counter and passed the test kit to a man who was sitting behind it.

He gave me a disappointed look and I ignored it, paid him for the test and took it from his hands.

I went to my apartment and walked to my bedroom. I took the test kit out of the packet and read its instructions.

With a heavy heart, I strolled toward the bathroom and peed on the sticks and placed them on the counter.

I washed my hands and picked them with tissues and went back to the bedroom.

I placed them on the bed and laid down on the bed after setting a timer of 5 minutes.

I closed my eyes and started to think about the possibilities of me being pregnant.

I mean I have had symptoms for the last two weeks. I have been puking my guts out and I have been getting dizzy easily.

Let's not forget that I didn't get my periods for 2 months. And my periods were always on time.

But if I am pregnant, then I would keep this child. This child has done no mistake so why would I punish him or her.

And if I am not pregnant, then I would move on and would never fall in love with someone.

I made a mistake this time and I won't repeat it again. I don't have any strength to face another heartbreak.

The voice of my alarm broke my chain of thought. I sat up and closed my eyes for a second and whispered: "Help me, God."

I picked up one test in my hand and saw that it has two pink lines. This means pregnant.

With a shaky hand, I grabbed the other one too, and it's also showing positive signs.

I dumped them in the dustbin and stared ahead of me. The tears started to fall from my eyes again.

I am pregnant. There is a baby inside me. I am not going to be alone anymore.

My baby will stay with me and I will give him or her all love. But I am only 17 and I don't know anything about it.

I don't know how I am going to take care of the baby when I can't even take care of me.

But I won't abort my baby. I had made a mistake by choosing the wrong person.

My baby didn't ask to be created in this way. So I don't have any right to take her life.

I wiped my tears and picked up my phone to call Kelly. She picked it up within seconds and said "Hello"

"I am pregnant, Kelly." I blurted out as soon as she said hello.

"Ohhh Naty, I am sorry." She said sadly.

"I just don't know what to do Kelly. I really don't know how to be a mother. I had never received a mother's love. Then how am I going to give that love to my baby?" I sobbed softly on the phone. "Oh, sweety please don't cry. I'll try to visit you as soon as possible. You will be a great mother to your child, sweety." She said softly

I nodded my head even though she can't see me. I am really glad that I have a friend like her.

"I don't want you to waste your time, Kelly. You don't have to come here. I can handle it. I always handled my problems on my own. I am very lucky to have a friend like you." I told her and sniffled.

"You are so innocent, Naty. That bastard doesn't deserve you. God will punish him. I love you, Naty. Stay strong, not for yourself, but for your child. And don't think about that bastard. I know what you are feeling right now. I had faced that too. It will get better with passing time. I am here with you." She said all this sadly.

I can hear her crying and this broke my heart too. I am reminding her of her again.

"I love you too, Kelly. And I hope I will get you as my sister in my next life." I said with my voice full of emotion.
