I'm barely 18 and got my girlfriend pregnant.
We were in love! I was there when she broke
the news to her father. "Young man, leave!"
I left. I went home to share the good news
with my parents. "Go to your room!" I did.
It was a tiny room shared with 2 brothers.
At least now I'd only have to share a room
with the love of my life and our child. Perfect!
