All The Right Reasons (The Seduced Series)

“How’s the stomach flu treating you today?” She asked after telling me about her day over dinner and I shook my head.
“It’s not the stomach flu, I’m pregnant,” I said. Isabella froze and her eyes widened from shock.
“Wow!” She said. “So when did you find out?”
“I took a home pregnancy test this morning,” I said shaking my head sadly. “I can’t believe I missed all the signs.”
“You’ve had a lot on your mind girlie. Don’t be so hard on yourself,” she said as her eyes narrowed. “What are you going to do now?”
“Am I a bad person for saying I have no clue?”
“Are you going to tell Dennis?” She asked and I froze “Ang?” She asked when I didn’t answer.
“I don’t know okay?” I said defensively. “After all, this is my baby.”
“It’s his baby too. Ang, he has the right to know what you’re doing,” she insisted sounding a little aggravated with me.
“Don’t you think I know that?” I said raising my voice to her. “You don’t understand Isabella, I’ve wanted this baby from day one with Dennis and now I can’t even think about its father without breaking down into tears.” Isabella looked at me with patience as I looked down at the floor. “I’m sorry for snapping on you,” I mumbled. I was being unfair to her and she didn’t deserve it. She shrugged her shoulders and smiled.
“Pregnant woman and their hormones,” she teased and I smiled back. “I’m not trying to pressure you into doing anything. I just thought that maybe…”
“It’s cool,” I said stopping her. “You’re a great friend and I don’t know what I’d do without you,” I said and she smiled.
She and I talked some more about work and stuff, neither one of us mention Dennis again. Later on in the night I overheard her talking to Dennis on the phone. I didn’t confront her about it after she hung up with him, I don’t want to make her feel bad about this whole situation that were in. She didn’t do anything wrong, she was just worried about me running away with the baby. I can’t lie but that idea did cross my mind once or twice. Though running would be harsh and heartless to both the baby and Dennis, they both deserved to be in each other’s lives no matter the dilemma that Dennis and I were in. I couldn’t stand in the way of that, no matter what my reasons were.
