Lost Innocence

PROLOGUE

Nina

"Do I really have to feel this?" I mumbled to myself.

"Do I deserve this?"

"I just want to have a normal life"

"I just want to be happy."

"But then you came." I touched my belly.

Humarap ako sa salamin para tignan ang lumalaki kong tiyan.

"Wow. You are really growing." I giggled.

"Don't you worry. I will love you forever." I laid down and started to think about my life.

"Nina, Let's go! You have an appointment today!" My grandma shouted.

"Yes, Grandma. I'm coming." I shouted back.

I gathered up my things and went downstairs.

"Are you ready?" Grandma said.

"Yes. I'm ready." She looked at me with a teary eyes.

"Oh. You are growing." Then she hugged me. "You take care of yourself always and you know that we are always here for you." She said.

"I know grandma!" I said and she smiled and went outside. "I know." I mumbled.

But still no one can give me back the innocence that I lost.

I'm ruined. I'm broken. I'm in pain.

"Let's go" she came back to tell me that. I smiled and went out.

" Miss Evans. Your baby is healthy. You want to know the gender?" The doctor said.

"Yes. I want to know." I said.

"It's a healthy baby girl." The doctor said. I got teary eyed.

"Oh look at the little girl. She's kicking hard." My grandma said. "She's kicking your worries away." She looked at me and held my hands.

"I will name her Niana Beatrice." I said in a cracked voice by trying not to cry.

I was still studying when I knew that I was pregnant. I got bully by other students. I know I'm young but I never wanted this.

I never wanted to be pregnant without a husband. It shouldn't have happen.

It's not my fault and neither my child.

"I will make a better place for my child. I don't want her to suffer like I did. I don't want her to lose her innocence at a young age" I said to my grandma.

"Yes you can and I know you will." She said.
