Chapter 97

"I'm two months pregnant for him," Her words echo in her head, and she freezes on the spot. For some minutes, she tries to digest her words, as they keep ringing in her head. She pinches herself for some time, trying to wake herself from this horrible dream, but she's neither sleeping nor is she dreaming. "I didn't want you to find out like this I thought I could handle it, but this is the only way I could get him to accept his responsibility. What would I have done? Even you will do this if you were in my shoes, Chloe. I can't stand the pain of watching my child grow up without a dad, I couldn't bring myself to see my child gets bullied by his peers in the future for not having a father. I can't stand the pain of being called a prostitute that didn't know the father of her child, what would you have me do?" Tears slid down Helen's cheeks as she stares at her dear friend. They have been together almost all their lives, and she never imagined that this would ever happen between them, she never imagined that their friendship will one day come to an end, but what hurts the most is the years of friendship ending this way.
