I lay on my bed, silently letting the tears stream down my cheeks. I blinked and choked back a sob as I heard my aunt calling for me.
"What?" I asked upon entering the room.
"Ahem, Gabe invited you over to-"
"I'm not going over again!"
"-to talk."
I stared at her and then nodded. We got in the car and she dropped me off at Gabe's house.
"Hey Dana," he greeted as I stepped into the big living room. He hugged and kissed me and seated himself.
"Hi," I casually said. I sat down. "I guess you've heard?"
"Yeah. It's ok Dana, I'll take you took the abortion clinic tomorrow."
"Wait, what?! The abortion clinic?!"
Gabe looked at me hard.
"Yeah," he slowely said. "Unless... Dana you're going through with it?!"
I felt a tear run down cheek. "Um, I- I don't- I don't know..."
"Look, Dana, this doesn't have to be a big deal unless you make it into something. We'll go, get the stuff removed, and you'll be normal."
"Stuff? I- It's our baby, Gabe!"
He sighed exasperatedly. "It's what again? Oh yeah. Fetal Tissue. Not a baby. And you have a big movie role coming up you can't miss."
I silently nodded and rose to leave.

"You are not getting an abortion young lady. You will go through with your punishment or leave my house and go home. Final."
I ran to my room sobbing. Aunt Layla was being so harsh! I never said I WAS getting an abortion, I was just... just... CONFUSED AND OVERWHELMED.
But once again, she was bossing me, thinking she can tell me what to do.
I heard my cell ring. I picked it up. It was Scarlet.
"Hey Scarlet. Wassup."
"Oh, uhh, hey... are you ok Dana?"
I rolled my eyes.
"Yeah. Oh, um sorry bout the other-"
"Forget about it. It's ok. Um, so what is your plan... you are going through with this, right?"
"Well... I don't know."
"Dana, I- uh, I got to go. Look, just think carefully before you decide. I'll be praying for you."
I heard the line click and then start beeping. I mutely pressed end and sat on my bed, thinking.
"I just don't know."
