Personal Narrative: Three Pregnancy Test

Improved Essays
I walked into my friend’s house with 3 pregnancy tests. I was hoping the tests would turn out negative and my missed period would show up soon. I ran into the bathroom to start taking the test without thinking much of it. After I was done, time seemed slower and I started freaking out. Waiting for the results was the worst thing ever. My friend went to look at the results and when she looked down at the tests, I noticed her face turn very pale. She looked at me and said, “They’re all positive.” My heart sank, my eyes started to water, and the next thing I knew, my face was full of dripping tears. I started to think about everything that was going to change and all of a sudden, my parents popped into my mind. I thought, How are they going to …show more content…
After getting the results from the clinic, I was quite crestfallen to find out the test was positive. That’s when I knew I had to tell my parents. Driving back home, my reality hit me and I couldn’t go through with telling them right away, especially telling my mother. I was scared of what would come of it. I was scared to see the reaction on my mom’s face. We were more than just a parent and child.We were friends. She thought I told her everything, but in reality I kept several secrets from her. I didn’t want her to know that I had been keeping anything from her, but I couldn’t avoid it. This secret had to come out because eventually the truth would be seen. I wasn’t sure how I was going to cope with the pain and disappointment. I tried to act normal, but inside I felt guilty for keeping my pregnancy a …show more content…
She understands it was my mistake not hers. I was the one who decided to go out and make the wrong choices. She just let me out thinking I would be good, but I wasn’t and she didn’t have to do anything with it. My relationship was great with her and I wasn’t trying to have revenge or anything like that. I was just making the wrong choices. We ended up talking little by little. I built my relationship with her over again. We have a stronger relationship and we are still good friends but it is not the same. Even though it will never be the same as before, we know we can get through it and still have a good relationship after

    My heart beat skips, I got numb, and it took me a few minutes to understand what just doctor said. That was the most terrible feeling I have ever had.

At that time I told my mother the same thing she told me when I was young that “don’t give up, instead of quitting that game stand again and try to play again that will make you a better player.” She also tried to apply that in rest of her life, she bared all those painful treatments and heart breaking side effects.…

    My best friend recently got her heart broken and asked me why does it feel like the pain will never stop, why didn’t he want her anymore, or why she wasn’t enough. I felt hurt, because she is worth so much more than a boy who is still growing, I even told her that. I explained how it is a long process and that it all works out in the end. But you must understand the process, the time, and dedication it takes to overcome the pain. “Why did it affect you as much as it did?”…

    A significant challenge that occurred in my life began in May 2015, when my girlfriend and I discovered that she was pregnant. Because of our Catholic upbringing, we are both pro-life, so abortion was never an option for either of us. The only question was whether we were going to keep the baby, or give him or her up for adoption. After much deliberation, we decided that based on our situation, in which we had 2 sets of parents that were willing to help and support us in any way they could, we would keep the baby. A little over 9 months later, on January 20th, my now-fiancée (we got engaged in September) gave birth to a beautiful baby boy, Ellis Benjamin Dapprich, 9 days after her due date and after more than 24 hours of induced labor.…

    When we first started to date I should have opened up to her more to show her how I felt and really try to express myself to show her who I really was so it would not have to be a mystery in the future. We could have gave it another shot at the long distance and see if it worked out but n ow we will never know if the second time was going to be better. Lastly when we started dating I could have shown her or proved to her that I am trustworthy and this could have avoided a lot of conflict down the road. I am aware of the points I have made and discussed and I am prepared to put them to use in my next relationship so it can be long and healthy…

I had been contemplating if this was the right thing to do, but came to the conclusion that I didn’t want to be kept concealed in this closet of hatred I had myself living in. My life seemed empty with the knowledge that I wasn’t being myself and no one truly knew who I was. It was a late Sunday evening, when the sun was just escaping my view into the unknown horizon and the moon started to glisten within the stars. I felt trapped in my house, with only my mother to accompany me.…
