Being a ninth-grader, she was going to give birth. Some were surprised, many condemned. But no one tried to find out and help the girl. But the girl did not influence anyone, she was alone, by herself. She lived with her father. She had no other relatives. The director tried to talk to her, but she was closed for communication. Once she was walking down the street and she felt sick, she was very late. A guy with a girl drove by. He stopped and helped her to get to the hospital. – Are you giving birth? – I don’t know – How old are you? -15. The girl lowered her head and remained silent. She gave birth to a boy. The boy kept thinking about that girl. He couldn’t get her out of his mind. – How did it happen that she got pregnant at her age? Something in his soul told him that something was wrong. He wanted to help the girl.
The girl was glad to see at least someone in these difficult days for her. She told the guy about her son with trepidation. And he wondered how she, still a child herself, would be able to cope with the child. He wondered how she would bring him up. – You don’t want to tell your parents? – Dad, he drinks, he doesn’t care about me. And mom – she died long ago. I have no one else in my family. – How are you going to live with such a father, and with a baby? – I don’t know. Maybe my dad will come to his senses when he sees his grandson. – When you are discharged, can I come visit? – Of course you can! She was grateful to the guy for his participation and indifference to her and the baby. All evening he was thoughtful. – I have to help this girl. – What? You have to? And why do you owe her something? What are you to her? Maybe a relative? – Who can help her? Her father drinks. – Let social services help.
– How can they help? They can take the kid away. No, they won’t. I’ll help her. I have the opportunity. The girl argued with the guy for a long time, but he was stubborn in his decision. The day of discharge came. The guy went to the hospital. He took them to his apartment. He showed the girl a room prepared for her and the baby. The girl was embarrassed. She could not expect such a gesture from a complete stranger. Everything was prepared for the baby in the room. A crib, a stroller, a bunch of baby things – the girl had nowhere to go, and she agreed. The guy found a good nanny. The girl returned to school. Everyone at school was surprised. Where did your belly go? Did you give birth? And where is the baby? The girl did not want to discuss this topic with anyone. She only wanted the end of the school year to come.
-Your girlfriend doesn’t come here, did you quarrel because of me? -It’s nothing to do with you. -Should I talk to her? -No, she’s an adult and should understand herself. -Better tell me, the father of the child is your classmate, was he afraid of responsibility? -No. I did not tell anyone anything, except my father. Once some drinking buddies came to my father. I locked myself in my room. But at night, one of them broke into my room. I broke out, screamed, but no one helped me; my father was sleeping drunk. And when I realized that I was pregnant and my belly was visible, my father started asking questions. I told him everything. And he said that it was all my fault. At school they made fun of me, condemned me. And I was silent, do you understand?
She felt protected next to the boyfriend. He became a close family man for her these days. – Thank you. I don’t know how I can ever thank you. – Don’t think about that; you should think about finishing school and raising your son, and I will help you with that. The guy decided to visit the girl’s father. The father was drunk, the guy was once again convinced that he did the right thing. She would have died with her father. The girl finished 11 classes. She had to choose a profession. She turned from a schoolgirl into a beautiful young woman. The boyfriend was confused, he was in love with her, but hid his feelings. She was also not indifferent to him. Only the nanny saw it. The nanny had to take the initiative. She took the child for a walk leaving them alone. Everything was solved by itself. Soon the guy proposed and they got married.
