Wrong Number (Derek Luh)

Chapter

Angie

I got to Mandis apartment complex and I saw her car was parked in the Private tenant parking so she must be home.

I parked and I got out of my car and made my way into the building. I saw the security guard Mason and I smiled at him.

"Hey Mason. Have you seen Mandi?"

"Not since yesterday night. She came around 10 pm. She looked pretty upset and like she was crying. I tried to ask her what was wrong but she ignored me" I was worried by the time he was done talking and I just wanted to get to her apartment to make sure she was okay.

"Okay. Thanks Mason" I ran quickly to the elevator and pushed the button to her floor.

Once the elevator stopped I walked to her door and opened it with the spare key she had hidden in the plant beside her door. I walked in and I saw her sitting on the couch with her head in her hands. I closed the door behind me and walked over to her and sat down.

She immediately laid her head on my shoulder and started sobbing. I immediately started crying considering the fact that I'm a sympathy crier. I just let her cry and comforted her. Once she calmed down I decided to ask her what was wrong.

"Mandi. What is it?" I asked. She sat up and looked at me.

"I'm p-pregnant" She said and wiped away the tear that fell. My mouth opened a bit in shock bug I tried to shake it off. Right now I have to be here for my friend.

"Baby. It's okay. You know you have all of us to help you. J-" I started but she cut me off.

"Please don't say his name" She looked as if she wanted to sob all over again.

"What is it Mandi?" I was genuinely concerned as to why she didn't want me to mention JJ.

"He's the baby's dad. I'm so scared he's gonna deny the baby Angie. He was drunk when me and him had sex a-and I was kinda tipsy and on-one thing led to another and When I woke up in the morning I quickly got dressed and h-he woke up and didn't remember anything" She said before placing her head in her hands and sobbing again. I rubbed her back and smiled softly.

"Mandi...JJ is gonna be over the moon when he finds out that you're pregnant to him. You just have to explain everything to him love"

"But everyone is gonna think I'm a whore now cause I got pregnant to a guy that's not even my boyfriend. And what if he doesn't want to be a part of the babies life?"

I pulled out my phone and clicked Jj's contact and started to call him and put it on speaker.

"Hello? How is she? Is she okay? Can I come over?" I smiled at Mandi and she was covering her mouth to cover the sobs that were coming out.

"Hey. Yeah she's good. I think you should come over. You gu-" He cut me off.

"Okay. I'm on my way over right now. Be there in 10" I heard him grab his keys and the phone call ended.

"See? He's really worried about you. Just talk to him okay? Things are gonna be alright" I pulled her into a hug and she hugged me tightly.

"Thank you for being the best friend ever. I love you so much" She said. I pulled back and rubbed her belly.

"Aww. I just realized you and Stass are gonna go through pregnancy together" She smiled widely.

"I know. I just realized. I'm only about 6 or 7 weeks. I'm not sure. You know I've gotten my period on schedule every month since I was 14 so when I missed it I was shooketh and then I started feeling sick so I took the test and it came out positive right away. I actually have them" She stood up and walked into the guest bathroom and came back out and handed me 4 pregnancy tests. They all had dark positive lines.

We heard a knock on the door and we both stood up quickly.

"I'm gonna leave now so you guys can have your privacy. Okay?" I said. She nodded and gave me a hug. I opened the door and JJ was standing there running his hand through his hair. He looked up and walked in and immediately pulled Mandi into his arms. She wrapped her arms around him tightly and he started rocking with her in his arms.

I smiled and walked out and closed the door.
