an action or judgment that is misguided or wrong

"Camila...Miguel told me you're having a baby" his words came out slow

call me dramatic but I felt like jumping in my car and drive off away from him I straightened my back standing up looking at him

"yes I am" It came out like a whisper I mentally smacked myself

he nodded clenching his jaw "is it his" he asked lowly

everybody knows who he is referring to let's just rip the bandaid off of this shit

"yes I am carrying his child"

"abort the baby"

I looked at him like he lost his mind but then I fix my face because I can't lie and say I didn't have the same thought

with that I shook my head he moved closer towards me I put my arm out to keep him at a distance

"You're really going to have that hombre loco baby?" he questioned me looking down at me (crazy man)

"The baby didn't do anything wrong" I said looking down he grabbed my arm jerking me towards him and he tighten his grip making me yelp

"Ant let me the fuck go Miguel is in the car he can fucking see us!" I pushed him off of me fixing my shirt

"You're really going to have the man who killed my little brother YOUR child's father baby?" I heard the pain in his voice and I understood where he was coming from

"Ant even if I wanted to abort it-"

"How much do you need? three hundred- five hundred say the price i'll give you the money just get rid of the baby" those words made me want to fall to the ground and bury myself

I shook my head "Ant I- I want to keep it" I whispered out he shook his head holding his hand up

"Camila I don't want my Nephew to be related to that man family no type of way" I rolled my eyes

"How do you think I feel you didn't tell me anything about him when I met him I could of kept my distance if you were to tell me ahead of tim-"

"Camila you're a grown ass woman! with a fucking 4 year old! you'd think you would have common sense by now to not fuck a stranger without protection"

I wanted to smack him...I really did but I couldn't just smack everyone who told the truth I turned walking away from him with tears in my eyes getting in the car

"mommy are you okay?" Miguel asked me trying to look at my face I swallowed and blinked the tears away

"Yes i'm fine let's go home" I pulled off heading towards my mothers house

Pulling into my mother drive way we got out and headed inside noticing that my mother was sleep she left dinner out for us I made me and Miguel a plate

After eating I cleaned up helping Miguel get ready for bed
doing my night routine throwing on my scarf I laid in bed looking out the window

"You know I love you right"
"oh shut up" I laughed pushing Mateo

"i'm serious Camila we're going to get married" he smiled rubbing my 5 month belly I nodded and kissed him in response

"I'm just disappointed though" he said looking down at me
"why" I whispered out hugging him he didn't hug me back I frowned looking up at him

"Mateo what's wrong" he shook his head suddenly his black shirt became wet I backed up looking at my hands I started to cry once I saw his blood on my hands

"You are having a baby with the man that killed my son!?" Mateo mother screamed out

"It was an accident" I cried out looking at Mateo on the floor I fell down pulling him into my lap "Mateo" I sobbed out putting my face into his neck
I missed his smell his touch his smile
"Camila you broke my heart" he said grabbing the back of my neck as I sobbed into his neck "I know i'm sorry Mateo i'm s-sorry"

I woke up looking at the time

'3:34am'

I closed my eyes breathing in and I tried to let out a breath but instead I broke out crying pulling my pillow to the side of me hugging on to it my head started to hurt as I tried keeping quiet as I cried but it felt nearly impossible

Maybe getting an abortion would be for the best it's not like-

my room door started to open I looked towards the door and saw a small figure in my blurry vision

I can't fake like i'm okay right now i'm not I felt the tears on my face as Miguel walked in closing the door behind him

"mommy I had a bad dream" he got into the bed

I pushed the pillow away from me pulling him into my chest putting the pillow on the other side of us as I cuddled him

"me too" I whispered kissing the back of his head he turned facing me throwing his arms around my waist hugging on to me

"what was the dream about?" I asked playing with one of his curls he backed away making eye contact with me

"t-that man hurt you mommy" he whispered
I moved closer to him rubbing his tense back

"who Miguel?"

"that man who was in the house before he hit you mommy and I couldn't do anything about it I was too scared" he said as tears came out I hugged him tightly rubbing his back

"nobody is going to hurt me baby don't worry i'm going to always be here for you" I felt my heart break as Miguel sobbed into my chest

within a few minutes he started to calm down and I notice his little breathing slowed down pulling back from him I noticed that he was sleep I rubbed his back in circular motion

my eyes started to get heavy
