Episode 1

Katy

I feel kisses all over my face, I open my eyes and see Sebastian looking at me with his beautiful green eyes, smiling at me... How handsome this man is... Today marks 6 months that we've been together... I can't even believe it's already been six months.

I worked at the same cafe I work at today... I always had a reputation for being a pain and not giving the time of day to men who hit on me... I'm 19 years old, and it's only been a year since I left the orphanage where I was raised since I was three, when my parents died in a car accident... I didn't see him as someone I could have a relationship with... He was the type of man I would never get involved with... The girls I work with are used to accepting invitations from customers to go out... but not me... and everyone knows it, that's why they call me a pain... When I met Sebastian, he was with a group of friends... they always come on Fridays for happy hour... they drink and have fun, especially with the girls who work here...

I remember it like it was yesterday, the first time Sebastian asked me out... He was with his friends, they were drinking and laughing a lot... as soon as I went to take their orders, he invited me out... but, as always, I refused, and this became a reason for ridicule among his friends; they laughed and said he'd lost his touch with women... But at the end of my shift, after everyone had left, there he was across the street, waiting for me to finish work... He asked to take me home, but I refused, said I would take the bus, but he didn't accept my refusal and said he would follow the bus and would only go home after I was safely home... So I accepted the ride, and we started to get to know each other, and from that day on, we've never been apart...

Sebastian: What are you thinking about, sleepyhead?

Katy: About the day we met. It seems like yesterday, and it's already been six months...

Sebastian: True... time flies, doesn't it? I need to get up, my beautiful... I have an early meeting at the company today... you can sleep a little longer, you can...

Katy: I think I will... I'm unexplainably sleepy today...

He gives me another little kiss and gets up, goes to the bathroom to freshen up and take a shower... he changes in the closet, and comes out, all handsome in a suit and tie, gives me a kiss that almost melts my body, and leaves for work...

As soon as he leaves, I get up, grab my cell phone, and call the pharmacy… I can't put this off any longer... It's been 15 days that I've been feeling nauseous, and my period is several days late... at first, I didn't think it was anything because my period has always been irregular, but yesterday, after smelling coffee at the cafe, I threw up again… my friend Ana, who already knew I'd been feeling unwell for days, suggested it could be pregnancy... and that hadn't even crossed my mind... I was a virgin when I started dating Sebastian... it took a month for us to go to bed, he was super sweet and waited until I was ready... he took me to get a shot so I wouldn't get pregnant, that's why I didn't suspect...

I ordered 5 different tests so I wouldn't have any doubts... I freshen up and take a quick shower... the delivery person arrives... I take the tests, gather my courage, and do all 5... I sit and wait, without the courage to look at the result... I close my eyes and pray for it to be whatever it's meant to be... I pick up the first one, and 2 pink lines appear, the second one too, as well as the third and all the others... that's it, I'm going to be a mother... My God, I'm not ready for this now... what am I going to do, I'm only 19, I don't have a college degree, and I work as a waitress in a cafe...

And Sebastian, will he support me... or will he be angry... we've never talked about children or long-term commitment... I love him, and I know he loves me too... but a child now...

I try to calm down and take a deep breath, my cell phone rings, it's Ana...

Katy: Hello, Ana...

Ana: Hi, sweetie, how are you doing?

Katy: So-so, I'm glad you called… I took the test, girlfriend... it was positive, and now I don't know what to do... (I start to cry)

Ana: Calm down, girlfriend, breathe... stay calm, everything will be alright, I'm here to help you, you know you can always count on me... and you have Sebastian too, he loves you and he'll love it...

Katy: You think so, girlfriend... I'm so confused...

Ana: Don't worry... it'll all work out... I know it's not a good time right now, but I need to ask you a favor... do you think we could swap shifts today... if you could come in at 10 and leave at 8... I'll cover your hours and stay until 10 PM for you... I have something urgent to take care of early this morning...

Katy: Of course, girlfriend... I can, it'll even be good to distract myself a bit and think about how I'm going to tell Sebastian...

Ana: Thanks, girlfriend, don't worry, sweetie, everything will be alright... We'll have lunch together and talk, okay?

Katy: Yes, we can... thanks for everything... see you later, kisses...

Ana: Kisses, girlfriend...
