A Rare Shorts Story


******************************************************************************************

Its 3:45 p.m and Justine is sitting on top of the toilet seat with tears streaming down her caramel tone face. She picked up the white stick from the top of the sink for the fifth time and looked at the dreadful negative sign that displayed on the stick along with the color pink. No, this is not happening, she thought. She couldn’t accept the fact that there was a human being inside of her. She just couldn’t. She felt as if she’s been thrown into a pit of daggers. More tears pouring down her face as if she was a waterfall. Her life was completely over. She felt like killing herself, wanting to commit suicide. She shook her head and reminisced about what a couple of weeks ago with Shawn. She could’ve sworn she had used protection. She has always been careful with him also being that she was constantly on the pill. Now what the hell could’ve gone wrong? She thought back real hard and something popped up her mind. Oh My God! Shawn had used the NYC Condom, some cheap ass condom that pops faster than a balloon. She thought that fool used the ecstasy one. What the hell am I going to do? She thought to herself. Nicole’s going to kill me. I have betrayed and deceived my best friend.
Going behind her back screwing her man is not going to be like none of those regular basis fights they have. No No No, her ass is gone right after Nicole finds out. And when she finds out that they’ve been at it for months now? It is over for her! They have been doing it for a while now behind Nicole’s back while Shawn was in a relationship with Nicole. She had insulted, wounded, deceived, and shattered their friendship. What’s done was done and history cannot be erased. Justine had a thing with Shawn way before he started going out with her best friend Nicole. Shawn and Justine go way back. Now that she is pregnant with her best friend’s boyfriend, she regrets what she had been doing for the last couple of months.
Crying for about an hour and 30 minutes, Justine finally got out of the bathroom. She put on her jacket, put the stick in her pocket and headed straight to Shawn’s house. Once she got there, Shawn’s goons were prowling and trespassing in front of Shawn building. They tried to holler at her like they always do but she pushed her way through them with bloodshot eyes and ringed Shawn’s doorbell. A minute later, Shawn opened his door and let her in.
“Shawn, we need to talk.” She said, her voice trembling as she spoke.
Shawn was pacing back and forth looking like he was searching for something. He seemed disinterested on what she was about to say to him.
He finally stopped and said “Talk about what? Make it quick cuz’ you wasting my time. I gotta go sell some rocks,” He said.
Justine took a deep breath and nervously showed him the white pregnancy stick.
Shawn looked at the stick in a minute and looked at Justine and looked back at the stick. There was a 60 second pause between them. Justine was uncomfortable. The moment was so awkward. Shawn didn’t utter a word as he looked at the stick.
“What the hell is this?” He asked in disbelief. “So you’re here at my crib to show me this…”
Justine quickly interrupted him and said, “Yes, Shawn. I’m pregnant .
“What? By Who? I definitely know it’s not me! I’m not the only person you’ve been sleeping around with. You’re here at my crib to show me some fake ass pregnancy stick? Get the hell out of here and get your ass home. I don’t have time for this b.s!
“You were the last person I did it with and you know that. In fact, I haven’t been doing it with anyone but you. I swear Shawn, I’m pregnant. If you don’t believe me I can take the test again in front of you.” Justine said hoping he would believe her.
“And you’re not the first ho that used that same tactic, running back here claiming they’re pregnant. Ya’ll some trick ass females and this is ya’ll number one game!”
Justine started to cry. He had called her out by her name. She thought everything would be fine coming here. She thought Shawn would console her, and they would plan to get an abortion but it seems like Shawn is turning her down and treating her like trash.
“You know what we have been doing for last couple of months. Just face it and deal with it. You got me pregnant and now you’re going to have to assist me with the situation that I am now.” Justine said, crying dramatically.
Shawn paced back and forth in the house, again looking for something. He just couldn’t accept the fact that he had another baby mama on the line. There are three other chicks that came to him earlier this morning claiming they’re pregnant. One of them is even two months pregnant. He even has one other baby mama who gave birth last month. Another baby mama drama. He knew what his action has caused but he doesn’t want to lose Nicole. Nicole is the only real female he has ever had aside from the entire promiscuous tramps he’s been with. The saying, 100 whores’ ain’t worth one loyal girl came up to his mind.
Deep down he knew Justine was pregnant. Sleeping around with numerous of girls was a habit. He just couldn’t stop, even if he had one real faithful girlfriend. He’s really in a messed up situation. Now how in the world was he going to come up with three abortion money?
“So you’re just going to ignore me? No abortion money? I didn’t get myself pregnant, you know.”
Maybe he can deny this pregnancy and get away with it. He thought long and hard and said, “Justine…I can’t deal with this right now. I really gotta go handle some business but the baby ain’t mines. Go home and take care.”
Justine felt like punching the hell out of him. How can he dismiss her like that? Does he not understand that she’s pregnant with his baby? “What about Nicole, huh! What is she going to think of me and you?” She yelled. She was no longer crying.
“Justine, I just told you that I don’t want to deal with this B.s. Now, I’m going to say this one last time. Take your ass home. The baby ain’t mine and this isn’t Nicole’s business. You are just like them scandalous heifers out here.”
“Scandalous?” Justine shouted and rolled her eyes.
“I didn’t stutter.” Shawn said.
Justine immediately went up to Shawn and slapped him square in the face. “You know what we have been doing behind Nicole’s back. You know it and I know it. So this is what you’ll do. Give me the damn abortion money so I can get rid of this baby and from then on, we can cut our losses and never see or touch each other again!”
Just then someone knocked on the door. Justine and Shawn looked at each other and then the door.
“Were you expecting someone?” Justine asked him. Shawn didn’t answer.
“Hey, Shawn, it’s me! Open up!” A familiar voice said behind the steel door.
“Oh my god, it’s Nicole!” Justine said with her mouth wide open. She looked at Shawn unbelievably and shooked her head. Shawn gestured to her as if to say don’t open the door.
“Don’t open the door.” Shawn whispered to her. Justine nodded. She paced back and forth nervously looking for a place to hide.
Boom Boom Boom Boom! “Open this door! I know you’re home! Stop playing games!” Nicole yelled.
Shawn stood nervously in the living room with Justine still pacing back and forth, neither of them saying a word.
“Man I told you to go home, Justine. Now, if I open up this door, she’ll assume we did something today.” Shawn whispered.
“If you would’ve gave me my money then I would’ve been long gone by now.” She whispered back.
Seconds later, Nicole dramatically opened the door and shocked both Shawn and Justine.
“Justine? What the hell are you doing in Shawn’s house? And why are you not opening the door?” Nicole asked confused.
“Wait…How did you open up this door?” Shawn said.
“No, the question is what is Justine doing here? I called you like 20 times this morning and texted you, trying to get in contact with you with something.”
“I…uh…This is not what you think, I…” Justine stuttered.
“Were you two…?” Nicole cut in.
“But how did you just break in through my door like that?” Shawn interrupted.
“Don’t change the subject Shawn. I know what’s going on.” Nicole walked to the table. “What the hell is this?” She said mentioning to the pregnancy stick on the table.
Justine opened her mouth but no words came out. Nicole looked at Shawn and then at Justine. There was no need to explain. Their faces showed it all. Tears immediately came streaming down Nicole’s face.
“How could you, Justine? How could you do this to me?” She yelled at her. She went up to Justine and punched her in her face. “You’re my best friend!” She punched her again. All Justine could was just stand there, take the pain she deserved and cry. In an instance, Shawn tried to stop Nicole but she wouldn’t stop beating Justine.
“Get off me Shawn! I trusted you and loved you and this what you do to me? Get my best friend pregnant? Both of you are sick!” She slapped and pushed Shawn off of her then immediately went to Justine, Nicole was hurt and deranged. Nothing could’ve stopped her from she was about to do to Justine.
“Nicole…I’m sorry, I…really am.” Justine drastically sobbed. “I can explain, Nicole, Let me tell you…”
Nicole shut Justine up by swinging on her again. This time Justine had to do something or Nicole would kill her. So she decked Nicole back and they both went at it. In between punches, Nicole started crying. “You scandalous BITCH!”
“Nicole, get off of her! You’re crazy! Get away from her!” Shawn yelled trying to break them apart.
“Oh, so you’re going to protect your ho, huh? We’ve been going out for like a year and this is what you call a faithful relationship?” Nicole said as she threw the pregnancy stick in his face and then punched the hell out of him. Justine was on the floor in pain trying to get back up. In an instinct, Shawn punched her back. Nicole screamed and went crazy on Shawn. Then all of a sudden Justine pulled Nicole’s hair and started attacking her. Justine was no fighter so pulling hair was her strength. They went at it; kicking, screaming, punching, and slapping. A light bulb went up in Nicole’s head. She went to Shawn safe and pulled out a .45.
Justine and Shawn’s eyes almost popped out of their faces once they saw Nicole pointing the gun into their faces.
“Nicole. Put. The. Gun. Away!” Shawn said trembling. Justine couldn’t even utter out a word. She knew her life was over.
“If you say a word or even try to get up, I swear I’ll shoot you!
Looking all feisty and in control, Nicole neared Shawn and Justine.
“Sooo Justine, my dear old best friend. You said you can explain. So talk.” Nicole said with sarcasm. She pointed the gun to Justine’s
