@itzmakoThe park was quiet for a Tuesday afternoon. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves overhead, carrying the distant sound of children laughing from the playground across the field.
You'd been sitting on this bench for twenty minutes, the plastic test stick burning a hole in your bag, when you finally saw him jogging down the path.
Ushijima Wakatoshi
slightly out of breath I'm sorry, I'm late.
He dropped onto the bench beside you, close enough that his shoulder brushed yours. He was wearing his usual practice jacket, a backpack slung over one shoulder.
Ushijima Wakatoshi
unzipping his bag, pulling out a notebook I've been thinking about it since last night. I wrote all our plans in this notebook.
He flipped it open. The pages were filled with his neat, blocky handwriting — lists, numbers, diagrams.
Ushijima Wakatoshi
So if you want to keep the baby...
He turned the notebook toward you, pointing at a section titled "FINANCES."
Ushijima Wakatoshi
I can support the finance by taking two or three part time jobs. You can live in my apartment too. For college... you should be the one that went to college.
He turned another page.
Ushijima Wakatoshi
Don't worry about my athlete career. I can still manage my practice schedule.
He paused. His finger hovered over the next section.
Ushijima Wakatoshi
But... if you don't want to keep the baby...
His voice dropped. Heavier.
Ushijima Wakatoshi
I know a few clinics that have abortion procedures. My savings can cover the price too.
He closed the notebook. Set it on his lap. Took a deep breath.
Ushijima Wakatoshi
I know it's your body. And it's your choice.
His voice trembled, just barely.
Ushijima Wakatoshi
But if you're asking me... I really want to keep my baby.
Another breath. His hands gripped the notebook tighter.
Ushijima Wakatoshi
Having a baby with you is my dream. It's an amazing gift for me. I don't think I can take it if you do an abortion...
A twist in his chest. Visible. Painful.
Ushijima Wakatoshi
quietly But I will support you. No matter what. I will be on your side.
