CHAPTER 29 : New York..

                                    

                                          

                            

                                
                            
                              
                                  
                              
                              
                                
                                  
                                  
                                
                              
                             
                            
                            
                          
                          
It's been 1 day since I talked to Leo and to sum it all up, it's been... Hell. I wanted to call him so bad but I knew I couldn't because I needed to give him his space after all it's alot to take in  finding out your going to have a child from someone who shouldn't have told you.
I should have been the one to tell him.
I gave Nikolai an earful about telling Leo after I specifically said not to but then he said "I'm sorry I didn't know you meant Leo". He then started asking questions on why was I so mad so I had to leave it at that before he figured anything out. 
I did prepare myself for if Leo doesn't come to terms with the pregnancy and I'm trying to be okay with it because I'm starting to realise that's going to be the outcome of the situation. 
But every bone in my body hopes he will because I can't do this alone and out baby needs him in their life. 
Meanwhile I'm in my room doing work for college. I can't wait to graduate, I won't get to work for a while because I'll be looking after the baby but I will try and get early or afternoon shifts. I want to be with my baby as much as I can. I lay my hand on the bump and smile. 
"I can't wait to meet you baby" I say smiling. My phone dings and I pick it up. Its Sandra. 
Sandra : Hey, do you want to meet and get a coffee? 
This is just what I needed. My mind is going crazy and I need to get out of this house. 
Me : Hey, yeah of course. I'm dying to out of the house.. Where will I meet you. 
Sandra : The Hills Café at 2? 
I looked at the time, it was 12:30 which gives me plenty of time to shower and get ready. 
I texted her back and I jumped in for a quick shower and put on some comfy clothes because the morning sickness is bad and I physically cannot wear tight clothes right now. 
I left a note on the kitchen table telling mom and dad where I was going just so they didn't worry. They've been watching me like crazy since they found out I was pregnant. I got in my car and drove to the place. 
A while later... 
"Hey. " I smile hugging Sandra. "Hey how are you?" She replies. 
"I'm great.. I'm actually pregnant."I say smiling. I need to tell her and I need her advice. I haven't told Sofia or Raquel because I know they would kill me for being stupid enough to lose my virginity to Leo but I will tell them eventually. 
"What?! When, who's the father?" Sandra asked shocked. 
"Umm I found out a few weeks ago and the father is Umm... It's Leo."I say scared because of her and Leo's history together. 
" I knew it, I could sense tension when I was at your house, anyway how do you feel about it... Are you happy?"
"Yeah I am, I would have preferred it to happen when I was more stable in life but whatever's meant to be will be." I say honestly as a waiter comes to our table. 
We order our coffee's and get back to our conversation. "How does Leo feel about it or have you told him yet?"
"I didn't get the chance to-"I giggle,"-My brother Nikolai told him accidentally and no, Leo's not happy about it but I'm hoping he will change his mind." I say tracing my finger on the top of the cup with my thumb. 
"I'm sorry to hear that but I know you'll be a great mom and I can help with whatever you need."
"How is everything with you?"I ask sitting up and taking a sip of my coffee. 
"Umm I don't know really I'm just so drained between college and work.. And... And yeah I don't know. I just want to finish college, get my degree and get enough money to leave this place." Sandra explained sitting back into her chair and sighing. 
I smile gently "Where do you want to go?" Sandra looks up and Smiles "New York." 
"It's my dream. If I was to go  anywhere it would be New York. When I'm financially stable and have a degree I'm hoping to live there one day."
I smile. "That's lovely Sandra, it really is." "One day."She smiles taking a sip of her coffee. 
"How many months until you graduate?"I ask. 
Sandra looks at me confused."2 months.. Why?" 
"I graduate in 2 months too. Would you be able to do Virtual University?"
"Whats 'Virtual University'?" 
"It's still college accept your not in the lecture. You basically send everything by computer, your notes, your presentations and your projects."
"I can ask, I have a class soon but why are you asking."
"This might sound crazy but why don't we go to New York for a while, you can get a feel of what it will be like when you move there and you can start looking for an apartment to live in." 
I need to leave here too, I have to travel before the baby is born and I need to give Leo his space and I also need time for myself away from college and everything , I will obviously be doing Virtual university  as I do wanna graduate but I need to get away. 
Sandra looks at me shocked like I've told a 5 year old we're going to Disney land. "Are you being serious?" She laughs not believing me. 
"I am I swear, I can pay for everything, my family own a private jet which we will use to get there and we own an apartment in New York which we could stay in while we're there." 
Sandra looks at me with tears in her eyes. "Oh my god really, you would do that for me."
"Yes of course, your my friend, and friends support each others dreams."I say putting my hand on hers. 
"Thank you Aurora, thank you so much." Sandra cries. 
"So what do you say, are we going to New York?" 
"I'll have to ask if I can do this Virtual university thing but other then that yeah we're going to New York."
For the next half an hour we talk about all the places we could go and all the restaurants we could eat in. Sandra had to leave because she had a lecture at college. We said goodbye and we agreed to meet later. 
I have to tell Mom and Dad about going and of course Nikolai, I'll ask Nik to tell Leo about me leaving because I need to give him his space and honestly I don't know if I'll be able to leave if I see him. 
But I know I need to leave... Even if it's just for a little while because I know it's for the best...for the both of us.
