The Cost of Freedom Is High

“Don’t say that Bella.” Kuza told me.

“It’s the truth Kuza, I don’t know what else to say or tell you.” I exclaimed, getting a little frustrated.

“Bella listen to me very carefully. I understand what you’re saying, but if I find out you start acting on your words I will lock you up somewhere. Right now you’re confused, and scared, and definitely not in your right mind. Just wait and I think I can change your mind.” Kuza stated.

“Kuza this isn’t something that can just be debated. I don’t want it, and I think that if nothing else should be respected.” I snapped getting a little pissed.

“I get it, I do. Just don’t make a final decision yet, keep your mind open.” Kuza pleaded with me.

“I’m not promising anything.” I stated.

“And I’m not saying no, nothing is going to be decided until they come back. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want you to keep it as I’m sure that’s how the others feel as well but you’re entitled to your opinion.” Kuza said.

“Really?”

“What?” He asked.

“So I’m entitled to my opinion but not my body?” I clarified.

“Just leave it alone Bella, we’ll get it figured out soon enough.” Kuza told me.

“Fine.” I grumbled.

“You do realize though that the next time I talk to them, I have to tell them what you said, right?” He asked.

“Yep, after all that’s kind of the norm.” I replied.

“Why don’t you just go to sleep?” He wondered.

“I can’t.” I whispered.

“Okay. Let’s get off of this baby topic then.” Kuza suggested.

“Then what should we talk about, the weather?” I snapped.

“No reason to get snippy.” Kuza chastised me.

“Are Brandon and Ang really coming sometime next week?” I wondered.

“Yeah, what’s wrong with them?” He asked.

“Brandon’s kind of an asshole.” I chuckled.

“Because he enforced our rules?” Kuza wondered.

“Never mind.” I growled, and rolled to the other side of the bed.

I just wanted him to shut up and let me sleep at this point.

“Bella.” Kuza whispered, about 10 minutes later.

“I’m sleeping.” I grumbled.

“No you’re not.” He stated.

“What do you want?” I asked obviously pissed off.

“If the baby is mine then I’d raise it right with you. Even with this situation I wouldn’t be dumb enough to fuck something like that up, none of us would. It’s a baby, a living breathing thing. I get that you’re stressed and you’re scared, and I can understand your thoughts right now. However, I just want you to know that no matter what happens I’ll be here for you.” Kuza told me.

“Thank you.” I whispered.

“No problem.” He replied.

For the first time ever I willingly rolled back over so that I was in close contact with Kuza. I molded myself against his body and was comforted by his arm snaking around the front of my body.

Now I was more confused than ever.
