That Tuesday 

Cori POV 
Today is the big day I guess , I woke up and turned to my left side to see that Chres wasn't there which is perfect for me because I don't have to worry about him questioning me where I'm going this early in the morning . I got up made the bed and walked over to the nightstand to get the remote and I turned on the morning news . I sat on the bed and watched the news for a few minutes to check the weather until I got a few texts from Chres , Lisa , and Toni.

Goodmorning BFF , are u sure u wanna do this ? 
Goodmorning Cori , so are u really gonna do this ? 
Goodmorning Baby , I left the house early to run some errands with my dad if you need anything just text me love you :)

After I read through my texts I came across a story on the news about a baby that was born deaf and finally got to hear his moms voice for the first time due to technology . Something like this would come on due to my situation I just sighed , turned the tv off and headed to the shower . 

20 minutes later

After I got out of the shower I quickly lotion end up and put on a sweat suit. I grabbed my bag and purse and headed to the car . When I walked down the stairs I felt a tap on my leg I turned around but I couldn't see anything until I looked down and saw a toddler tapping my leg .
"Hey lil man , where's your parents ? I asked 
"Cj , What are you doing messing with people ? The women made her way towards her son to grab him 
" I'm sorry " she says laughing 
"Baaaaa bye " he says 
" It's fine and bye lil man take care "
I got in the car and pulled off and turned on the radio 

Forever, forever, forever
So you're having my baby
And it means so much to me
There's nothing more precious
Than to raise a family
If there's any doubt in your mind
You can count on me
I'll never let you down
Lady believe in me
  
Jodeci decides to come on for some reason it seems like I'm getting subliminal messages and it's making me feel some type of way . I finally arrive at the clinic and I'm nervous as fuck , I feel so guilty for not telling Chres he deserved to know but I'm too scared . I'm only doing what's best for us . When I walked in I saw a girl balled up in a corner crying her eyes out . I walked up to the receptionist 
"Goodmorning , I have a 7 am appointment " I said 
"Uhh are you Cori Harris ? She asks 
" Yes "
" Ok I'm going to need you to change into this gown and place your clothes in this bag after you get dressed you can sit down until we call you " she says 
After I got dressed I sat back down and silently cried I couldn't believe I was about to abort my child and the girl sitting next to me crying wasn't helping me either , 

10 minutes later 

" Cori Harris " a doctor asked for me
" Yes " I got up and followed him to the room 
" Goodmorning , Cori " he says giving off a creepy smile 
" Morning " I said harshly
" Ok you can lay down on the table and spread your legs " he commanded
I did as I was told and then I looked over to the right and saw all the utensils he was going to use.
" Would you like some numbing medication to ease the pain because it's going to be a little uncomfortable " he says 
Yea " I say

I kept of hearing my mother's voice from our conversation last week she was telling me her story of how she was going to get an abortion with me but decided not to she was 16 and pregnant at the time and here I am about to do the same thing.
" Ok it's going to pinch a little going inside and then you won't feel it anymore " he said
Noooooooo , I can't do this

Chresanto POV 

I know all about Cori's plan and I'm beyond pissed that she wouldn't at least tell me . I know it's her body but that's my child too. I lied about running errands with my dad because I knew she would come up with some bullshit on why she was leaving early . I'm actually on my way to abortion clinic to confront miss sneaky . I pray to god I won't be too late .


Cori POV 

No get off of me " I said running out of the room . I made my way to the receptionist to get my bag and then I walked out of the door . As I was running out Chres was running in once he saw me I knew shit was real. 
" Why the hell wouldn't you tell me you were trying to get an abortion ?" He says yanking me
" Huh? Why the fuck would you abort our child it's mines too " he says beginning to shake me ."Chres , Stop you're hurting me "
" You're a fucking hypocrite " he shouts
" I didn't get the abortion Chres " I say letting go of his grip 
" You didn't " he asks 
“No I didn't " I began crying 
" I'm so sorry Chres , I'm such an horrible person , mother , girlfriend . I'm so sorry " I began rubbing my stomach 
" Why did you want to get it ? He asks 
" I -
" Why Cori ? He shouts 
" I was scared , I was scared that I was going to have a miscarriage and the baby wasn't going to make it so instead of going through the pain I thought it would be safer to get rid of it plus we're not even financial fit for a baby " I admits 
" You're so full of it Cori , You're so selfish it's always about you and it always has been you never asked me how I felt about having this child it will only make me grind harder to find a job" he says rolling his eyes walking away 

“Chres I did and you would always push me away you we're the main one avoiding the situation, all you did was go to the bar”

“Bottom line is you shouldn't have even thought about it without telling me at least”
" Chres I didn't want to get attached to something I couldn't have , " I admit 
" I'm sorry " I continue to cry with my hands on my face until I feel two strong arms around me 
" It's ok I forgive you " he says kissing me all over my face 
" No you don't " I said with my face smothered on his chest
" I admit  I'm kind of hurt but I understand where you're coming from so I'll just let it go " he says 
After the scene we just made outside we finally got in the car and the car ride was so quiet . Chres was in deep thought while I was silently crying by the window .
