April 17th | 9:44pm
Brooklyn sat on her bed, starring at her computer screen. Her eyes lingered over the digits.
1-800-2578-1212
The digits to Torrian Prices's office. After hours of internet stalking Brooklyn learned that Torrian Price was 28 years old, born and raised in Atlanta, and was 1 of three sons to Tony Price, billionaire and CEO of one of Atlanta's massive Energy Company.
I mean... wow. Brooklyn thought.
She knew she'd find something, even if it was just an old facebook profile. She knew his first name and as she typed it, Torrian Price came up second on the list.
She wouldn't imagine to find that he was ... rich and apart of a powerful family.
"There's no way.." Brooklyn whispered to herself as she scrolled through more of the articles about him and his family.
She also learned that he worked for his father at the company as head of the financial department. Torrian managed over the company's finances, stocks, budgets, etc. Their headquarters was here in Atlanta but they had two other locations, one in New York and the other in California.
Brooklyn's mind drifted back to that night. She could still feel the rush of heat as their eyes met, his slow smile pulling her in. His touch had been confident, not forceful, and she remembered the warmth of whiskey on his lips when they kissed.
She let herself get lost in the moment, something she rarely did. The sex had been incredible—not just because of how he moved, but how he made her feel—desired, powerful, and vulnerable all at once.
She rushed out that next morning, late for work, without even leaving a note. She never imagined she'd think about or see him again. But now, two months later, she couldn't escape the reality of what had happened. One night had turned into an unwanted and unexpected pregnancy.
Brooklyn pondered how'd she'd even go
about telling him the news.
It was too late to call or email now but Brooklyn was debating rather to reach out at all. She wasn't in the head space to consider an abortion but regardless, how does she know he wants anything to do with this child?
Either way her mind was made as far as telling the father. It only seemed right to Brooklyn that she informed Torrian of the pregnancy.
He'll probably ghost and block her calls, resulting in this being a waste of a time and an embarrassing ass moment. Brooklyn thought.
But then again, what if he did answer, what if he did want to be involved? Brooklyn would never be able to shake the guilt of knowing she never told the father of the child.
She sighed hard, wanting to cry over the situation once again.
As she closed her laptop shut she heard her phone ring. Monica was calling. They had been texting prior as Brooklyn uncovered more information about Torrian.
Incoming Call...

She answered and put the phone on speaker.
