Remember Me?

"Don't leave me."

Positive.
Positive.
Positive.

I stare at the three tests on the bathroom counter and cried. Not only am I pregnant at 19 but the father of my child hasn't talked to me in three months. I went to Chris's wedding but it wasn't the same without Bryan, I felt left out. I raise my shirt a little bit and look at the small bump.
"I'm going to take care of you.." I said. "I promise." I was alone at home. Penny and Stephan had gone to Italy to spend some time alone.. Along with Uncle Vic and Aunt Laura. I couldn't tell my dad. He'll kill me if he knew. I think he'll kill Bryan first... Than me. I sink to the ground and began to cry. I was alone in raising this child. I can't do this, they can't find out. They'll freak! My phone rings.
"Hello?" I answered and wiped my face.
"Alia? It's dad."
"Hey dad. What sup?"
"Nothin much... Just wanted to hear your voice how you been?"
"Far from okay."
"Why is that?"
"Can you come over? I'm pretty lonely and I don't want to be right now."
"I'll be there in 30."
"Okay." He hangs up and I get off the floor. Should I tell him? -------------------
"What?"
"He just ran off and didn't come back. And I don't know what to do anymore dad. I'm expecting his child, and he's not even here. Penny and Stephan have completely ignored me...." "Wait.. Hold up... Your pregnant?!"
"Wait.. How you?"
"You just said it yourself... Alia, are you pregnant?" I nod slowly and look down at my legs. "This can't be happening. I'm going to murder that son of a bitch!" He stands up. "And you! Why didn't you use protection? How far are you?!"
"I don't know.. Three months probably... Please don't be mad at me daddy... Please." I pleaded.
"AND YOU DIDNT TELL ME?!"
"I just found out... Don't yell at me."
"HOW CAN YOU BE SO IRRESPONSIBLE?! ARE YOU GOING TO LEAVE THAT KID LIKE I DID TO YOU?!"
"No.. I'm not... I'm not you."
"Alia... What... I'm going to kill him."
"Don't leave me..." I begged.
"Please."
"I can't right now Alia.. I need some time to think." I look up at him and got his hand. "Please.. I need you! I don't have anyone else from blood! Please Daddy don't leave me!" He yanks his hand from my grip.
"I need time to think Alia... I'm sorry." He grabs his keys and goes out the door.

What now?
