Revelation Story - [still working]

Dear Diary,
(Early) Sunday morning. May 3rd, 2006
2:05 AM

Its me, Erin. I am so exausted. It is 2 o'clock in the morning, just got back from Christy's house. She called me over around ten and said that it was an emergency. When I got to her house i noticed there was no car in the drive way, assuming her parents were not home. I walked into her house finding a bright light leading up the stairs. Everything else in her house was dark. I walked towards the light where I found Christy in her room crying. She told me that Jude had left the house just a while ago to the 24/7 drugstore. I asked her what for? I looked around and all i could see was tissues scattered around her bed. I looked at her and asked whats wrong. She told me its been a month and she did not get her period yet. I thought she was just over reacting because exams we've been getting.

Jude came back from the store. He looked miserable... like he had been crying for days. He handed a box to Christy, then immediatly left the room. Christy headed into the bathroom and closed the door shut.

Twenty minutes passed and i could hear Christy crying from the other side of the door. I knocked on the door and asked to come in. She slowly opened the door and as i walked in i could see the pregnancy test already thrown into the bath tub.
I tried to comfort her but she couldn't stop crying. She kept repeating over and over again "I can't believe this is happening".

Picking up the Pregnancy test, i put it back into the box and put it on top of the sink. I brought Christy back into her room where Jude, back from down stairs, was nervously pacing back and forth. While Christy was crying, I told him the bad news.

Jude paused for a moment and just yelled, "I can't do this anymore, I mean this can't be happening!" Then he began to studder. "I..I.. I cant be here... This is just too much.... are you sure it said positive? We're only 16 years old..... You just can't be!"

I told Jude he has to comfort her... but he refused to... He said he wanted no part of her and the baby.... and left the house.

Christy started crying hysterically.... I had to calm her down. I stayed for a while till she was able to sleep. I told her i'd stop on by in the morning b/c it was already late.

I left her lying in her bed and left the house.

And now i am home. As her best friend, I am always there to support her. But deep down I feel that if she keeps that baby, the baby is going to make her miserable... or atleast while she is in high school... IF she finishes high school... things are just going to be difficult for her. Well its late and i have school the next day.
