•Moe POV•
"Monaeeee" My co-worker/friend Loriel happily spoke
"Not right now Lori" I tightened my hands on the trashcan puking
"What's wrong?" She asked holding my hair
"I-I think I'm pregnant"
"PREGNANT" Lori exclaimed loudly
"Shut the hell up"
"Sorry sorry" She apologized "Have you taken a test?"
"I have one but it's at home" I straightened myself walking to the sink to wash my hands
"How long has this been going on?"
"Like four weeks" I answered while wiping my hands on a paper towel
"Have you gotten your period?"
"No" I mumbled
"And you haven't token a test? Are you crazy" She dramatically tossed her hands up
"What if I'm not pregnant and its food poisoning or something I've eaten?" I made up an excuse.
I know I have pregnancy symptoms but I'm honestly scared for the results. I chickened out two days when I was going to take one at home.
"I have a test in my purse. You want it?"
"Why are you carrying around.... never mind. Give it to me"
"I'll meet you in the restroom in ten minutes tops" Lori excitedly rushed out the break-room
___
"This is just wrong man"
"Stop being a baby"
"You aren't the one with piss on your hand!" I exclaimed while buckling my belt
"I have two kids. It's pee on me everyday"
I came out the stall sitting the test on the sink. I washed my hands until it was damn near red.
"How long does this take? It's been almost two minutes"
"Check and see"
I closed my eyes picking the rest up. Slowly opening my right eye I read the box
Positive
I admittedly opened my other to classify I wasn't seeing things
"Well what does it say"
Before I could tell Lori the news my co-worker who would get popped if I was seventeen again strolled in. Amanda and I have the same job: database administrators. I've heard from Loriel that one of us could be getting a raise. I've been working for Centorus for three years and her ten so of course we're in competition.
I would beat the living shit out of her but I'm not Detroit Moe anymore. I'm Monae unless you provoke me. Then that's another story.
"Good Afternoon ladies"
"How's your day been Amanda?" Lori questioned sliding the test into my pocket
"It's been amazing" Amanda's eyes roamed on me "Nice to see you today Monae"
"You too" I forced a smile "I'm going to call Jelani before break is over"
"Can I have your yogurt? Bailey ate mines this morning"
"Sure Lori"
I stepped outside the building making sure no one was coming before dialing Jelani number. It's going on 1:30 so she should be on break
