TEENAGE MOM??
??(The mistake that changed her life)??
??Episode 16??
Derek’s POV ?
‘Move out of the way!!!’.. Move out of the Goddamn way!!’..I yelled as I carried some of the things Mrs Martinez ordered me and tried pas-sing throu-gh the crowded hallway..
‘Hey!! Where do you think you’re going?!!’..One of the nurses asked.
‘My girlfriend is in labor!!’..I replied and she nodded..
I quic-kly sli-pped into protective gear and went into the theatre where My mom,Mrs Martinez,Tanisha,some nurses and the doctor was pres£nt…
‘Derek!!!’..Elsa cried out and I scurried over to her side..
‘I’m here okay?? Look I’m here alright and everything is going to be—
‘I can’t do it!! I can’t do it Derek!! I can’t’..
‘You can Elsa, look…look at me!! Look at me okay?? You can do it’..
‘I can’t’…
‘Remember what we promised each other?? That when the baby is born and I’m on a college break you, Tanisha,I and the baby would go to Disneyland on his first birthday so you can do this okay??’..i held onto her hand like a husband would hold his wife’s..
‘Okay Elsa,just push slowly’…The doctor urged and she cried out so badly that tears escaped my eyes..
I never knew that woman go throu-gh such pain to bring a life into this world??..
I have watched a lot of movies where the women go into labor but I never expected it to be this painful in real life..
I can’t bear Elsa being in so much pain??..
‘Can’t you guys give her something to ease the pain a little bit?!!’..I screamed..
‘She has to do this on her own’..Mom replied and I wiped a sweat off my brow..
Chase’s POV ?
‘Yo have you seen what’s trending all over??’… Moniece said to her friend and they both nodded with giggles all around..
‘What’s happening??’.. I asked..
‘Tanisha’s live video,that girl Elsa is in labor and it’s pretty epic’..She replied and I gr@bb£d her phone..
I thought Elsa even ab-orted the pregnancy but from what I see here she’s in so much pain and that Derek guy is right by her side like he’s her husband or something..
‘That Derek guy is so supportive awww’.. Murmurs began to spre-ad and eyes started glaring at me..
‘Your baby is being born and you’re here eating fries, pathetic’..Ashley muttered as she walked past me..
‘It’s not my baby!!’..I yelled back but it didn’t mean anything to any of them.
Episode 17??
Derek’s POV ?
I sle-pt off in the waiting room since I couldn’t wait any longer in the theater and totally grossed out of everything..
‘Are you still here??’..Tanisha asked and I frowned while running my eyes.
‘What’s going on??”..
‘The baby is here alre-ady and he’s so cute’..She replied and i flin-ched..
‘Are you serious??’..
‘Yeah,Elsa is holding him now’..
Elsa’s POV ?
I stared into my son’s eyes and thankfully I was glad he looked nothing like his father who happens to be Chase..
He had Derek’s brown eyes and my nose..
‘Hey’..Derek c@m£ in and I smiled at him..
‘Now you have to take us to Disney land’..I said and we both chuckled like we were a married couple..
Well technically the child is his since he was planning on becoming the father and all..
‘He looks so much like you and somehow he has my eyes’..
‘I think so right?? What should we name him??’..I asked..
‘You…you’re asking me?? but—
‘You were there for me throu-ghout the whole pregnancy ordeal,you stressed yourself out to help me get my cravings so….’..I said weakly and Tanisha protested..
‘Hey I helped too!!”..
‘You helped only once so that doesn’t count’.
he fired and I handed the baby over to him.
The way he looked at him was like a father holding his baby in his hands for the first time…
Although Cas-sy and I never got to see that cause our father’s were never there for the both of us so this is a beautiful sight..
‘Why don’t we name him Chase??’..
‘Derek!!!’..
‘I’m just joking,what of Damon?? Cause of his beautiful eyes like Damon Salvato-re’..He said and I chuckled..
He just named my baby after a TVD character!!..
A Month later ?
.
.
.
‘Are you sure you wanna do this??’..Derek asked as I stepped out of the car and I nodded.
‘I sincerely want to cause a second and thankfully you’re here with me, shouldn’t you be in school by the way??’..I replied..
‘I told you it’s just a three hour drive from home’..He said..
‘Well Damon doesn’t nee-d you all around me you know??’..I chuckled and eyes peered as we both walked into the school..
Today should be when I finally graduate high school but my dream was delayed but not destroyed..
It’s time I show them that..
Episode 18??
Chase’s POV ?
‘Chase! Chase look!’..Fred said and I turned around only to see Elsa dressed in a very beautiful go-wn that suited her curves..
I normally thought that women after birth would become soggy and all but she just looked like it didn’t even matter at all…
She looked like a whole new person which really shook me..
She walked past me like I didn’t even matter with Derek by her side and they looked like an ideal couple..
‘He’s holding your baby like it’s his’..Martin muttered and I snapped at him..
‘It’s not my baby!!’..
l
‘Come on man we know you R@p£d her so drop the act,but who cares anyway?? After highschool we’ll never see each other again’..He replied and walked away..
Is he for real??..
But he’s right..
Derek held onto the child like he was his and held Elsa like she was his wife..
‘Awww Elsa’s baby is so freaking cute’.. Moniece guffawed as she walked over which made me frown..
Can we just get this graduation over with??..
Elsa’s POV ?
‘You okay??’..Derek asked as he covered my hands with his and I kind of felt a spark between the both of us…
’Ye…Yeah I’m okay’..I stuttered and the situation between us turned awkward quic-kly..
‘Every girl in school is gushing at how cute your baby looks’..Tanisha said and I smiled.
‘You look beautiful in your dress’..
‘You look beautiful too,do you have any regrets about today??’..
‘No I don’t really,I registered for night school in Stonewall prep so in some few months I’ll get my high school di-ploma and then to college’..I replied and patted her shoulder..
She walked up to the stage to give a speech from from the corner of my eyes I sp©tted Chase’s father and his new wife who happens tomorrow be the principal..
I should’ve known that they were both in a relationsh!p!!..
‘Good day esteemed parents and the graduating clas-s of 34,my name is Tanisha Baker and I am supposed to talk about the highs of highschool and how inspired I am but honestly,I am not inspired but ashamed instead’..Tanisha started and everyone g@sped..
‘You all heard me right,A year ago a poor 17 year old went to a p@rty where she got drugged,R@p£d and then eventually got pregnant and what happened??She was expelled for disorderly conduct which just reeks misogyny in this generation,the boy responsible for her pregnancy gets to graduate today while she sits and watch,the boy gets to move on while she gets to go to night school,he gets to be whatever he wants while she gets to work her as-s off in a restaurant!!So am I proud to have graduated from this school?? HELL NO!! Why?? Because no one protested! None of the parents cared! No one dared to go against the school board for the injustice carried out!! So you know what I’m gonna do?? I’m gonna get my di-ploma and get out of here because this hall is a hall of hypocritical bastards!”..
Episode 19??
Elsa’s POV ?
Tanisha’s speech would forever be known as the most iconic speech an high schooler would ever make and when we all left the school it was the most epic thing that could ever happen..
The look on Chase and his parent’s face was the most priceless reactions ever and i just wished I could’ve taken a picture of it and hang it on my wall..
‘Well that was something,I’m proud of you baby’.. Tanisha’s Mom muttered as we all got into the car…
‘I got my di-ploma which means they can’t do anything about it,I’m just glad I got to say a few things for Elsa and Damon here’..She replied and the look in my eyes was that of pure pride..
‘Thank you so much Tanisha,you’re going to be a great lawyer’..i said and we both hvgged it out..
‘Will you two cut it?? Damon is trying to sleep here!!’..Derek snapped and i chuckled..
‘Somehow he only wants to sleep in your arms’..
‘Well I’m his Daddy aren’t I mom??’..He replied and win-ked at me which made me blus-h..
‘You know I’m gonna miss y’all’.. Tears welled up in my eyes and Tanisha sighed de-eply..
‘How many times do we have to tell you that we’re not leaving or abandoning you?? After a month you’ll also be in college so why bother about this??’..
‘Yeah you’re right,I shouldn’t be bothered about it at all’..I f0rç£d a smile and she k!$$£d my cheek..
Even though I want to go to college i still have to fend for Damon who still nee-ds me in his early stage of life and I still have to help mom with the bills and Cas-sy too..
it’s just a little bit too much responsibility for an 18 year old like me..
Three Months Later ?
.
.
.
‘Order up!!!’..The chef said aloud and I gr@bb£d the tray from him..
I took the order to the table and to my own dismay it was Fred and some other girls from school who are mean as hell..
‘Waitress you forgot the bu-tter!!’..He said aloud and i clenched my fists..
Just ignore him Elsa..
He’s nothing but a bully and a j£rk..
‘Waiter!! I said the bu-tter or do you want me to yell for your manager?!’..He yelled and the others laughed which made me snap..
‘Call the manager!!’..I fired back and sli-pped him so ha-rd with the tray which made him fall to the ground..
Episode 20??
Elsa’s POV cont’d ?
Minutes Later ?

.
.
‘What the hell were you thinking when you sl@pped a customer with this?!!’.. My boss yelled and I sighed de-eply…
‘He was acting like a j£rk and if you want to fire me then I totally un-derstand sir’..
He stared at me for a while and went back to his seat..
‘How old are you Elsa??’..
‘I’m 18 sir’..
‘Should’nt you be in school or college??’..
’Well I have a baby and bills for pay so—
‘You’re a mom?? Are you serious?’.
‘Yeah,I was R@p£d in highschool and then got expelled for it but all is good sir,am I getting fired or not??’..i replied and he could clearly see the pain in my eyes..
‘No you’re not but next time if you have an encounter with a rude customer just come to me okay??’..He said and i nodded walking away..
I am so tired of telling my story that now it makes me feel like everything I’ve worked for is due to the pity story and all..
I don’t like being pitied at all and I am gonna show them that..
Minutes Later ?
.
.
.
‘Hey baby’..I cooed as I walked into the house and scooped Damon up from his baby cot..
‘He is really a peaceful kid’..Mom muttered and before I could say anything Cas-sy walked it with blood on her shi-t..
‘Cas-sy what’d you do??”..
‘A kid called you a slut in my school and I punched her face off’..She replied and I couldn’t help but chuckle..
She is just like a 13 year old Tanisha who really stands up for me Everytime even though I’m not even there..
‘You shouldn’t be getting into fights cause of me Ca—
‘You work your as-s off everyday Elsa and you threw a p@rty for me and my friends with your savings so this is my way of helping…By punching any idiot who says horrible things about you’..
