When the result came, I was almost afraid to check, but it was right there, and my eyes fell on it.
I was pregnant. Holy fuck. I was too stunned to move.
All I could do was stare at the stick of doom.
“Anita? You’ve been quiet in there for a long time. Are you okay?”
I rushed for the door, pulled it open, and fell into my friend’s arms as I broke down crying. Hayley was surprised for a second, but she quickly realized what was happening and wrapped her arms around me tight.
“Oh, honey,” she murmured, her voice full of heartbreak for me.
“Hayley,” I sobbed. “What am I going to do?”
She sighed, and I let myself be led to the bedroom. “For now, nothing. We’ll lay down on my bed; you can have a good cry. Maybe a nap. Then we can talk about we’re going to do.”…to be continued in book 2.

Chapter One
Brooklyn
A loud ring interrupted my sleep, but I closed my eyes and ignored it, rolling over in bed and pulling my covers on top of my head. I wasn’t ready to wake up yet and I had time off from work, so I intended to at least sleep in. But the loud ringing didn’t stop, and I groaned.
“Go away already! It’s too damn early…”
Finally, the ringing stopped. I was just about to settle back in, when I heard a door slam open, and a loud voice called out.
“Chief! Hey, chief! You better not still be in bed or I will beat your ass black and blue!”
At the sound of the voice, I could only wake up. Pushing myself so I was sitting up in bed, I rubbed my eyes and yawned. A moment later, my bedroom door was opening, and my friend, Nora, stepped inside. She had a heavy scowl on her face as she stood there with arms on her hips.
“Brooklyn! Don’t be lazy today of all days! If I’d known you would be like this, I would have made you stay with me! I’ve been waiting for an hour already.”
