Chapter 1.6

Somehow, Ayva was devoid of Jared in the days after the sleepover...

Everytime she tries to ring Jared if they could meet, "not right now" was his reply! Despite knowing where he stays and work, Ayva thought it may not be a good idea to show up abruptly."He might be really busy", Ayva tried to convince herself & brushed everything aside, until...

Baby woes?

Ayva had been experiencing somewhat a roller-coaster mood swings recently... Likewise her body -- such as frequent visits to the washroom & her hips seemed wee bit rounder these days.

She tried to brush away the idea that she might be pregnant, "it was just that once!" she said while sobbing to herself, to the point these symptons have become part as her daily routine -- morning sickness! You know that you know you have to face the reality when you can no longer fit into your favourite skinny jeans anymore, exactly!

Caught in fear & dilemma, there's no way she's making a trip to the hospital, so instead, she grabbed herself a pregnancy test kit to confirm her worse fears.

Ayva's shoulders shook with petrified sobs as she steadied herself over the sink. A positive pregnancy test was lying on the edge of the sink, the blue line seeming to taunt her and gloat over her misfortune. She yelled to herself, "this cant be true!".

"Much as I want to be a Mom, I'm not ready yet!" she thought, panicked. "I'm not even sure of the relationship I have with Jared... Oh God, what am I going to do?" she wept.

Ayva needed to see Jared, badly...

She took a deep steadying breath, while her hands shook as she dialed his mobile phone number and held the phone to her ear... "Sorry, the number you've just dialed is no longer in use, thank you... Sorry, the number you've just dialed......."

Ayva took a shuddering breath, and stood frozen...
She dropped the phone, and it clattered to the ground with a small thud.

She knew she had just been used, only a bit of fun...
