Invisible Strings

Chapter 33 Pregnant

I felt a pang of concern, Denzel wasn't ready to accept. What the hell!!! How could he!!

"What's going on with him?" I asked, curiosity getting the better of me.

Grace sighed. "He's freaking out, Jay. He says he's not ready for this kind of responsibility. He's talking about...about not keeping the baby."

I felt a surge of protectiveness towards my friend. "Don't worry, Grace. I'll talk to him, see if I can get him to come around. I'll beat him for you."

Grace's eyes locked onto mine, and I saw a glimmer of hope. "Would you, Jay? Please? I really need you to talk to him. He's not listening to me right now."

I nodded, feeling a sense of responsibility. "Of course, I'll talk to him. But what do you think is going on with him? Is he really not ready, or is there something else going on?"

Grace hesitated before answering. "I think he's scared. He's always been the type to avoid commitment, and this is a big deal. But I love him, Jay. I want this baby, and I want him to be a part of our lives."

As I listened to Grace, I couldn't help but think about my own feelings on the matter. As a girl, I knew how scary it was to be in a situation like this, unsure of what the future held. I wanted to support her, even though she's Freya's friend.

But a part of me also wondered about Denzel's feelings. Was he really not ready, or was he just not willing to step up? And what did that say about their relationship?

I pushed those thoughts aside, focusing on the task at hand. I would talk to Denzel, and I would do my best to help her.

"Don't worry, Grace," I said, smiling. "I'll talk to him. And I'll do my best to help you two work through this."

"Thank you so much Jay " she said and hugged me tightly. I hugged her back.

Grace told me that she isn't attending school nowadays so I bid her farewell and went towards school.

I entered Section E building and Denzel was the first person I looked for but he wasn't there. Suddenly Ci-n came and started jumping and all.

"Sir Alvin is absent today. We've a free period." He told me and honestly all of them were screaming like animals.

I looked for Keifer but he wasn't there. I'm late today, he must have came here by now. He must be in the music room, sleeping behind that damnn piano.

I went upstairs to the second floor to look for him. I opened the door of the music room and went towards the piano to look for him but before I could someone wrapped their arms around me and before I could scream or resist, he spoke.

"Shh....it's me."

"Keifer." I said and gulped. He didn't reply but his arms tightened around me.

As I stood there, Keifer wrapped his arms around me from behind, pulling me close to him. I felt his warm breath on my neck, sending shivers down my spine. It was a gentle, soothing touch, and I couldn't help but relax into his embrace.

I leaned back against him, feeling the solid wall of his chest behind me. His arms were strong and protective, and I knew that I was exactly where I was meant to be. I felt safe, like nothing could touch me as long as Keifer was holding me.

As he held me, Keifer's lips brushed against my neck, sending a wave of desire through me. I tilted my head to the side, giving him better access. His kisses were soft and gentle, but they sent sparks flying through my body.

I felt his heart beating against my back, a steady rhythm that seemed to match the beat of my own heart.

Keifer's arms were wrapped tightly around me, holding me close. I felt like I was home, like I was exactly where I belonged. His touch was like a warm blanket, enveloping me in comfort.
