Omniscient

The next day...

"Shine would you please just wait." Youth kept getting in her way as she walked along the hall to go see her professor. They'd all just finished their finals and Shine had to pick up her grade slip for her extra curricular class.

This past week she's been eager to be done with college and ready to start her career, but her functionality shifted once she found out she was pregnant. She couldn't sleep, couldn't eat, and barely remembered how to speak. Her excitement for her future left and now all she saw was life as a single mom to a baby she wasn't even prepared for.

Before Youth's outburst, she was scared. And knowing how he felt about her pregnancy, along with realizing that she truly wouldn't have his hand in this, made her even more worried.

Youth, when he returned to his dorm yesterday, he thought about how he reacted to the news and he too couldn't recognize who that person was. He would never treat Shine like that, but the reality was that he already did.

Now he's trying to fix things.

Emphasis on the trying, because Shine wouldn't stop to talk to him. She ignored him as they walked. When he would cut in front of her, she would move around him.

Becoming tired, Shine stopped abruptly. She closed her eyes tightly trying to decrease her level of irritation. When she opened her eyes she saw Youth standing before her with a sad look on his face.

"Youth I don't wanna talk to you. Now please move." She said calmly, moving around him once again.

"Baby please-." Youth reached for her and she ferociously snatched away from him.

"Youth I don't want to talk to you!" She yelled. A few passing students startled at her pitch.

They looked at them oddly and kept moving.

"Baby I didn't mean any of those things I said yesterday." He pleaded once he realized he had her attention.

She walked off again.

He got in front of her.

"Shine stop." He pleaded.

She did.

"I didn't mean it." He repeated.

"Youth it's fine. I know where we stand."

"What do you mean where we stand?"

"You don't want a baby. I don't want a baby."

"You don't want it?"

"Of course I don't. You think I'm ready for one? I'm not!" She said, folding her arms.

"Oh thank goodness. So when's the appointment to take care of it?" He asked, reaching for her hand.

Shine shook her head and pulled her hand back.

"You're a fucking disgrace." She spat. "That was a test and guess what, you failed. Don't call me, don't text. Don't try talking to me ever again. You'll never meet her or him. Fuck you!" Shine said before moving on, leaving Youth standing there with a stuck look on his face.

With tears threatening to fall, Shine went into to girls bathroom, and into a stall. She plumped onto the toilet seat, and cried into her palms.

She wasn't lying when she said she didn't want a baby right now, but she knew it didn't matter whether she was ready or not, he or she was coming and she had to get ready.

"Nebula can you please open up." Shine banged on her door, waking her and Joey up. They'd fallen asleep while watching a movie on his laptop.

Hopping up first, Joey went to open the door "Wussup?" He said, stretching.

"Hey Joey. I need to talk to Nebula."

"Yea mamas. I'm here. You okay?"

"Not really." Shine said, fresh tears streaming down her face.

"Imma let y'all talk. See you later baby." Joey kissed Nebula's forehead before heading out.

She smiled at him, then turned her attention to Shine.

"Youth and I are over." She cried. "He wanted me to get an abortion." She broke down further.

"It's okay Shine." Nebula pulled her into a hug.

She guided her over to the couch then went to go get her a water.

She returned with it and sat next to her. They both got comfortable as they spoke.

"He was my first." Shine cried. "I saved myself for all those years just to give it up to a no good nigga."

"It's okay Shine." Nebula rubbed her back. "You live and you learn mamas. I'm sorry it turned out the way it did. But that just means God has better things in store for you. He's already blessing you with someone whose gonna love you unconditionally."

"But what about my career?"

"You're gonna be the best boss mom there is. I can already see it. Your life will be fine Shine. And I'm always gonna be there to help wherever I can. Joey too."

"Did he say that?" Shine asked.

"It's not up to him." Nebula said and they both laughed.

"Everything will turn out amazing." Nebula assured her.

"Okay." Shine said, a small smile on her face.

"Imma be an aunty." Nebula did a small dance in her seat.

"I want you and Joey, along with Genesis and Oakland to be his or her god parents."

Nebula teared up.

"I would love too." She hugged Shine tightly.

The room grew silent.

"At least I know this baby gon full these out." Shine shook her titties.

"Oh period." Nebula said and they both laughed.

For the rest of the night they just chilled in the living room together.
