Gallerias decision - I open my eyes from my mother handing me the telephone. Angel is right beside me rubbing my shoulder smoothly. Chanel is on the other side of me just incase if I need a translator to talk to the police. I sure hope not. Galleria says to herself. The phone rings... Ring ring ring. A policeman answers the phone.

Policeman - Hello? What's the emergency? Um. Uh.. Uh. Hello miss? The policeman answers thinking of the worse.

Galleria hangs up the phone and runs away. She stops running to look back to see where she is. She's lost almost. So she just takes a walk. I can't do this. Galleria says to herself. This isn't right. I can't have this baby! That's it. I don't care what nobody thinks of me any more. This baby is going down I'm so sorry. Galleria says as she looks down to her stomach and feels a small movement going about. I know everyone is going to hate me no matter what they say. I'm getting a abortion and I'm a get it now!

The foreign doctor - Hola. The women doctor says to Galleria. Um.. Galleria says nervously.

Galleria starts to panic. She's now talking herself out of this. But it's to late the female doctor has already came back with an American female doctor.

Okay we'll this abortion may cause feature problems for --- Galleria cuts her off. I-I don't care. I just want it done. She starts to cry silently but then stops.

You know you don't have to have this abortion. Says the doctor. I know but it wouldn't have a good life even if I did sign it up for adoption. I just want it done and don't try to talk me out of it. Galleria screams at the nurse getting upset. I'm sorry. Galleria says feeling nervous. I shouldn't have yelled. No no. It's okay your worried. Everything will be fine. The doctor assures Galleria. Now lay down on your back. You will be put to sleep for about a hour and a half. Then the abortion will begin. The doctor says looking at a very nervous Galleria.

An hour later - Galleria. You can wake up now. The doctor says waking her up. It was a successful Surgery. Galleria looks down at her stomach. She feels no movement what so ever. She also sees this big scar. Galleria thanks the doctor and then leaves.

Dorothea says looking out the window. And to her surprise she sees Galleria walking back towards the mansion. Galleria! Her mother greets her with wide open arms. Wanting to hug her daughter. Galleria what's wrong? Dorothea says after she notices that Galleria put her mothers arms down. Um. I have to tell everybody something including you. You might hate me for this the most and I'm so sorry, but I couldn't do this anymore. Galleria pulls her mother on the inside where everybody else is waiting for Galleria.

Everybody I have something to tell you. Y'all might hate me for this. But I had to do it. Galleria says about to break down into tears. What is it? Chanel says stepping up. Um. About an hour ago when I was walking. I walked Into this clinic. And um. I couldn't take it anymore. So I went and a-a. Aborted my baby. My Galleria says backing up.

She's on both her knees with her hands to her chest screaming to herself "what have I done?" She's falls to the side drowning herself In her own tears. For the rest of the night.
