I call the shots 7


I call the shots


Chapter 7 

"What did you just say?" Her mum asked.

"Mum, I'm pregnant".

"Chantelle get serious", her dad said, getting furious.

"Dad, I'm sorry that I disappointed you, but it's true🙁🙁"

Junior just sat there, looking at his sister like she was crazy.

"You're a huge dissapointment to this family, after leading your sister to her death, you still got the nerve to bring such a shame unto us and you're shoving it in our faces. Chantelle! How dare you? " Her mum said getting up and walking to attack her.

Junior held her back.

"Mum, relax!!"

"No, allow her to beat me, you think I caused her death, you brought it on her mum. You killed my sister. She couldn't stand to face you, so, she took her own life. You're a monster. How can you make your kids so scared of you. You're a monster!!" She said crying and shouting at her mum.😭😭😭😡😡😡

Her mum tried to attack her, but Junior held her.

"Chantelle, go to your room, now!!??" Her dad said.

She glared at her mum and left.😒😒😒😒😒

**************

Chantelle stayed indoors, the whole day.

She couldn't study, sleep or eat. She just stayed in bed doing nothing.

"Chantelle, can I come in?" Her dad said, behind her door.

"No, go away".🙁

He ignored her reply and walked into the room.

"Dad?!!"

" I just want to talk to you".

She ignored him.

"Chantelle, your mum and I love you so much and we want the best for you in the future. Your mum is not a monster, she just has her way of showing her love and that is by being hard on you. Later on in life, you'll understand all these. And no one is to blame for Mildred's death".

"Hmm" she said looking at her finger nails.

"I love you, okay?"

She ignored him.

"Chantelle, talk to me".

She looked at him and faked a smile.

"Now, back to your issue. Who's the father? Lewis??"

"I'm not sure" she said getting scared now😟.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Dad, I....".

"You've been sleeping with other guys? Chantelle?!" He said getting angry.

"Dad, they were just two"😢

"We're terminating that baby tomorrow morning!!".


"Dad, I want to keep the baby"

"And jeopardise your education? And your life? No way! We're terminating that baby tomorrow and it's final", he said, getting up to leave.

"And make sure you apologise to your mum", he said, walking out.

When he left, she just sat on her bed and cried more.


~~~~~~

*A week later*

After Chantelle terminated the pregnancy, her parents made her stay at home for a week without talking to anyone.

They wanted the issue of the pregnancy and abortion to die off before she could return back to school.

They informed the school that she was really sick and took a week permit for her.

 She had private classes at home through out her stay.

She got back to school and wasn't ready for people flooding her with questions, so she took a rude pill.

"Chantelle!!?" Betty said rushing to her, with Amanda behind her.

"Oh my God, we've missed you so much", they said, hugging her.


"You had us, so worried. Are you fine?" Amanda asked.

"Yes, can you people just let me be. I know you've missed me, but I need some space".😑😑

Amanda and Betty looked at each other and Betty spoke up.

"Alright, take all the space and time you need", Betty said sarcastically.

"What was that?" Chantelle asked.

"Nothing", Betty said, scratching her hair.


"I thought so", she said, walking away.


"Oh God, was she having a rudeness virus😕", Betty said.

"You should be used to this. When she doesn't feel like talking, she gets rude. I wonder what's going on with her".

"I bet she's pregnant", Betty said.

"Shut up, someone might hear you".

"And I think she had an abortion".

"Betty, we're so not having this conversation", she said walking ahead of Betty.

~~~~~

Chantelle was avoiding Lewis the whole day. Immediately after every class, she rushed out quickly and she didn't appear for lunch.

Finally, school had dismissed. She went to her car quickly, hoping to not see him. But she met him in front of her car.

😳😳😩😩😩

"Chantelle why have you been avoiding me?"

"I've not been avoiding you, I was just busy".

"Busy? Chanty really? I've not seen you for a week and finally when you resurfaced, you became a bee"😕

"Lewis, just let me be. I'm really tired okay. I will talk to you tomorrow".

"Are you pregnant?" He asked her hoping for a negative answer.

"Where did you hear that from?" She asked surprised.

"I heard. It went round the whole school".

"So you listen to gossips now?"

"Are you pregnant or not?"😕

"I'm........"

"Oh yeah, she is", Reece said joining in the conversation.

"And the baby is mine"😌

"What?"

😳😳😳😕😕😕

Abena's passion story 10

Abena's passion story Chapter 10 Kwasi's POV We've been in the hospital for almost 30 minutes and those silly doctors haven't said a thing. I was getting frustrated. Ray was panting and walking up and down. He kept on screaming God's name, and saying things that I didn't bother to listen to.. I can't lose Abena. No!!! I can't leave without her. Then I remembered what she said before hanging up. "Make sure you come this evening before I serve my purpose". "No!! No!!!...let it not be!!! Argghh!!!!"😢😢 "What is it??" Ray asked me scared. "Abena..." "What???!!!, you're freaking me out!!!" "She said...." The sight of the doctor cut my words short as we ran to him panting. He had a gloomy look. "Do we need to beg you to talk" Ray said😕😕 "I'm sorry. She didn't make it... She...." ...

The storm in my life 2

The storm in my life Chapter 2 Katherine’s POV I was really surprised to see the sunrise when I woke up. Didn’t my alarm ring or maybe it did and I didn’t hear it. I looked around and…. “Arrghhhhhhhh!!!!” I screamed. A guy opened the door and ran in. “Where am I?” I asked him. It took me a while to recognise him, but where am I? “You’re in my house cupcake, do not be scared. It’s just a house”, he said grinning. “Why am I in your house?” I asked confused. “You passed out and I’m not that psychic to locate your house”. I rolled my eyes at him. “I was out for how long?” I asked confused. “For almost 24 hours. You really freaked me out, but you were breathing and sleep talking so, I knew you were alive” I felt embarrassed. “Uhm did we do anything?” I asked nervously biting my lower lip. “No”, he said. I let out a breathe that I didn’t know I was holding in. “I’m not that kind of a person and besides you’re a Church girl. I don’t do church gir...

The storm in my life 1

The storm in my life Chapter 1 NB: Some of the images that I’ll be using in this story are not mine. Katherine’s POV “Ughh!!” I said out loud when I heard the alarm ring for the third time. I stretched my arm and turned it off. Now waking up seems more like a torture to me. Who would have thought that life would treat me this way? I graduated with a first class and I’m working as a receptionist for my national service. I’m not criticizing the work, it’s cool and all, but it isn’t my standards, I have to smile to people and be extra nice, I didn’t study that!!! Hopefully today is my last day and I just hope that they keep me and promote me because I’ve put in my all and I got a first class. I got out of bed sluggishly and went to bath and dress up.  Today is my last day and I need to make a good impression and be on my best behavior, so I wore an ash classy fitting dress and paired it up with my black stilettos. I combed my hair dow...
