STACH Short Story Contest #25: 199 words, 5 winners, 15SBD prize pool!

My name is Camila, I am 17 years old and I am about to have an abortion. I was three days without getting out of bed thinking if this was the right thing, I considered having the baby, but that idea quickly vanished when thinking about how all my opportunities would fall apart, my short-term plans, and even the long-term ones, not I see myself carrying a baby, and even if I did, who would support me? I do not count on the father, I know no, I did not even bother to tell him what's happening, why, we do not have a relationship, it was something of a night, I'm alone in this, so I'm here, my best friend Abby try to calm me by telling me that the doctor is excellent in the matter and that the procedure will be simple. When it's my turn to enter the office she takes my hands and whispers: "Trust him, look what he did to me, my life can not go better" I open the door thinking that this is the best for me, God forgive me.
