Sophie, Part 7 – What Were We?
I gulped; I couldn’t tell my brain to respond to what he said. But I also knew that my silence was just going to answer his question, so I had to come up with something fast. “are you trying to be funny?, is this your way of calling me fat” I said ,I couldn’t tell if he was buying it ,he just looked at me unemotional, “being funny isn’t even near to what emotion is flooding my head right now” ,you know what Lee that’s it ,I don’t have to take this I’m leaving ,I got up and started walking towards the door ,but Lee grabbed me by the arm and slammed up against the nearest wall ,I couldn’t move ,he had me pinned to the wall “don’t play with me right now” the look in his eyes scared me I knew he was serious but I didn’t know what kind of serious ,what did it mean to him, why did he care so much? “you can go after you go in that room and let Connie clarify everything for me”, “wow how ironic the Blonde’s name is Connie, how f*****g original” ,he let me go ,so he could watch me walk into the room where Connie went to.
When I get in the room Connie was on her phone texting, so when she looks up and sees me, she greets me with a smile. Hi, my names Connie nice to meet you, she offers her hand for a handshake. i shake her hand politely, she gave me a cup and gestured me to pee in it. I shook my head no at her and I could feel tears starting to form in my eyes. She looked at me with empathy, ‘look I’m going to do this one thing for you but, you will owe me a favor later when we cross paths again. “yes please, I would be so grateful”. Connie peed in the cup for me 25 minutes later we both came back to Lee and Connie told him I wasn’t pregnant. He took a good look at both of us and walked out to the car ,I took it as a way of him saying time to go ,I told Connie bye and got in the car with Lee.
Yesterday was a close blow ,the thought of Lee knowing that
I was carrying his child, would have been then worst thing in the world. When I got home my dad was so worried, he told me he went to the school to pick me up so I wouldn’t have to walk but some of the kids told him that, I left with Lee. When he told me, I knew he was scared and worried for me.
I told him everything that happened, I didn’t tell him the aggressive parts of course, because I feared my dad would confront him about it.
The start of school was less brutal, I walked around the halls. there was less whispers and less talk about me, but I could still see eyes on me. Time goes by and I make it to all my classes without being bothered, I finally feel like he’s done with me and I’m free.
- 2 months go by and Lee pretty much forgot I exist and so did everyone else at me school the feeling of being able to do my own a good thing for me. I haven’t been going to school for a while I only 12 weeks left before I give birth ,and with that being said today I find out the gender of my baby and ,I’m really excited .my dad wont be able to come with me but its ok because I told him I would tell him when he gets back from work
