“What?” I exhaled, stunned. “Did you tell Tanner already?”

“Yes. He doesn’t want anything to do with the baby. He told me to get rid of it because he’s not going to be a father now.”

“What an idiot! I can’t believe he’d run from his responsibilities like that! What are you going to do?”

“I don’t know,” she cried. “I don’t want to get rid of it, but I’m in college. I can’t be a single mom. My parents are going to kill me.”

The words left my mouth before I even had time to second-guess them.
