The Roommates: Chapter Nineteen
Tina sighed deeply and picked up a box of pictures resting on her bed. She thumbed through them until she found what she was looking for. In her slender hands, she held a picture of her, Kaitlyn, and Veronica. Tina looked into her past as she analyzed the faces staring back at her. The photo was taken on a summer day; they had all hung out, spending the day swimming and laying around the pool. Tina had already been intimate with Veronica by that point. Why have I been running from myself? I wouldnt be in this position if I had been honest with myself. Im caring a child by a man I cant stand. What am I doing with my life, she thought.
Tina didnt have long to sit, before she knew it, Kaitlyn had barged into her room, clad in a stained apron, her hair all over the place. She stood in the doorway, with her hand still on the *****. Tina, its not fair that Im down in the kitchen slaving away with Mom & Grandma and youre sitting up here taking it easy. You have to help cook, too.
Tina rolled her eyes at Kaitlyn before putting away the photo and begrudgingly making her way downstairs to the kitchen. Her sister could be a royal pain in the ***** and today was no exception. Hours later, after the turkey had browned and the side dishes were prepared, the Kennard family sat down at the dining table and prepared to enjoy their Thanksgiving meal. As they sat, Tinas grandfather opened a bottle of his homemade peach wine and started pouring glasses for the family. It was a family tradition. Every year, Grandpa Franklin opened the meal with a prayer, followed by a toast with his homemade wine.
As he approached Tina and began to fill her glass, she became very nervous. She and Kaitlyn had been allowed to participate in the tradition starting at age 16. But this year, she couldnt partakenot with a new life growing inside of her. As Franklin moved to fill her wine glass, Tina said No thanks, Grandpa. None for me.
Her grandfather smiled at her, Oh, nonsense. Its my favorite type of wine to make. I love this flavor. Just try some for me., he said with a wink.
Im sorry, Grandpa. I really dont want any this year., Tina replied, an apologetic smile on her face.
Oh, Tina, dont be silly. Have some of your grandfathers wine., her mother said.
This was all the motivation her family needed. The rest of the family began to chime in, pleading with her to try the wine. Their voices all blended together in cacophony of peer pressure. Tina couldnt take it any more. She was exhausted and stressed and already on the edge. She could feel the anger rising up in her stomach and her face growing redder and redder with each passing second. She was like a tea kettle waiting to blow.
She couldnt stop the words that flew out of her mouth. Im pregnant, okay! I cant drink the wine because Im pregnant!, she yelled, before throwing her napkin on the table and running hurriedly up the stairs to her room.
