Nurse: "Congratulations you are indeed pregnant" he saying this smiling he doesn't know those words just ruined my life, there are so many questions in my heard, how do I go about this, Impilo yami imile nje and I've just made things worse.
I've just arrived at home, I'm sad I just want my bed maybe I'll feel better after my nap I make sure my grandma doesn't see me I'll talk to her later.
When I get to my room I just lay on my bad thinking even if I considered abortion I know granny will have my head, let me check Thandi on WhatsApp, I see her message
Thandi : "we can meet later on, I can come to your house I'll ask my boyfriend to bring me over"
Me : "See you then" let me try sleeping
I just woke up from my nap let me go find granny she must be worried since she didn't see me earlier
Me: “Gogo! Ukuphi?" I call out when I don't see her around the house
Granny :" Ay Nandi Maan owani umsindo"
Me : "sorry gogo bengakuboni endlini" she's outside under the tree sitting there
Granny: "bengsashawa umoya kuyashisa, ubuye nini Kade uhambile"
Me : "Kade ngibuyela I went straight to my room, Ey gogo u nurse confirmed on what you've said I'm indeed pregnant
Granny:" I told you angazi yini obuyiyela e clinic"
