Use Your Sisters Instead: EP10

After that day, though, Tabitha felt off. Just little things. She told herself it was the intensity of the orgasm that she and Michael had shared. He had broken her brain.

But the strangeness stayed with her. She started struggling to concentrate in classes. Her stomach felt slightly sour, as well. Then her period decided to pass on its monthly visit. Just never bothered to show up. And then Tabitha really did feel sick to her stomach.

When she was able to stop throwing up, she went out and bought a pregnancy test. As if she didn't already know. Another month went by. Another missed period. She was sure she was starting to show.

Then one day Hope caught her crying in the bathroom. This whole thing with Michael, it had changed all of them. A few months ago, Hope probably would have told her to stop sobbing or to "grow up." Now, her eldest sister rushed in, held Tabitha close, and asked what was wrong.

"Is it Michael?" Hope asked, "Did he do something to you?"

"No," Tabitha said, "Yes. Oh God."

Hope walked her down to the living room. Chastity was already sitting on the couch. It felt strange for them to all be together fully clothed. What a weird world I'm living in. Tabitha sat down. She eyed her older sisters nervously.

"It's just the three of us," Hope said, "Michael's at class and Mom's at work. Whatever you say, it never has to leave this room. So, whenever you're ready."

"I'm pregnant," Tabitha said, the words spilling out of her. Like a confession in a bad police drama.

"I know," Chastity said. The two girls looked at their blonde sister with surprise. "I don't know how. I just do. Sister's intuition. I figured you'd say when you were ready." Chastity had changed, too. She'd gone from merciless enemy to unyielding ally. Her toughness something to be treasured rather than feared.

Tabitha knew that Hope would always comfort her, but Chastity would kill for her. It made for an incredibly comforting combination. I'm such a lucky girl, Tabitha thought.

"What happened?" Hope asked, genuinely concerned. She reached across and stroked Tabitha's hand.

"I don't know," Tabitha said and started to sniffle, "I followed the chart and everything."

"Oh, I know you did honey," Hope said, "I know someone at school. They can fix this."

"No!" Tabitha pushed her sister away. "I can't. I won't."

"OK," Hope said, "Of course."

The three of them sat in the living room and cried together. Hope hugged her baby sister tight and told her, "It'll be fine. I promise." She said it over and over. As if wishing it to be true.

"Yes," Chastity said, "We'll work this out together. Like always."
