THIRTEEN

“LUCI, DID YOU REALLY WANT TO CLIMB INTO THE BACK of the station wagon?” Ms. Delgado asked.

“No,” I replied. “Not, really.”

“Did you enjoy the sex?” she asked.

“No,” I said. “I hated it. I hated myself.”

Ms. Delgado put her arm around me. “Are you getting help?” she asked.

“What kind of help?” I asked.

“Therapy?” she said. “Counseling?”

“I have a YouTube channel,” I said. “You should check it out—I have five million followers now.”

“A YouTube channel?” she asked. “How is that like therapy?”

“I talk and people listen and comment,” I said. “It’s called Luci9Months. I got the idea from a Facebook page I found a couple of months ago. All these pregnant teens are on there sharing their stories and supporting each other. Now we have Nine Months—the YouTube version. I interview teens and we talk about everything: boys’ hormones and anatomy, that sort of thing—orgasms, birth control, pregnancy, abortion, adoption, birth, marriage, and raising a baby. It’s amazing. You should check it out!”

She gave me a startled look and glanced down at her notebook.

“I’m serious,” I said. “I still think about my aborted baby every day and don’t want anyone else to have to go through such a horror-show. I am a cautionary tale, right? I am on a mission to teach teens about the realities and consequences of being sexual.”

“I think that’s all for today,” she said. “I’ll let your mother know if we need you in court, but like I said, these cases usually settle.”
