Just a story

Just a story

The coldness of the winter chill bites
As she hurriedly walks home
The bus came very late tonight
She doesn't like to be out so late alone

She took the keys out of her purse
And she opens and lock the door behind her
she came out the shower and sits with a hot cup of tea
And covers with a blanket watching TV on the sofa

At that very same time across the city
Another girl wasn’t that lucky as her
She works the late-night shift
Not knowing that her life was going to change forever

because on her way to subway that night
She was mugged and attack by two men
Who then had their ways with her
And then left her unconscious in the rain

She was found by a passerby
and then she awakes in the hospital
And she was questioned by the detectives
But she couldn’t remember anything about the attack at all

She couldn’t go back to work
because her life was never the same again
She decides leaves the big city of Manhattan
And go back home to live with her mother in Wyoming

Wyoming is a western U.S. state
With vast plains and the Rocky Mountains
And Yellowstone national park, forest trails and rivers
She grew up in the capital city of Cheyenne

She awakes one morning and started to feel sick
And she became nausea when she smells her deodorant
and when her mother took her to see the family’s doctor
he told her the bad news, that she was pregnant

She sits alone crying inside of MacDonald's
while she was having a cup of coffee
Didn't I had normal life “she said
Why did all this have to happen to me

What is she going to do now she wonders?
She’s pregnant for one of the rapists
Her mother was very supportive of her child
Saying" I will help you get through this.”

so, they went to the local church
and they kneel down and they prayer
saying “God will show us the way
because God is present everywhere

She spoke to the local pastor that day
Who said "this is an innocent life inside of you
She always wishes to be pregnant one day
but when she was married and someone’s wife

So she decided that night to have an abortion
And when she was opening the clinic's door
She ran into an old friend from high school
they haven't seen each other for ten years or more

and he asks her to go out with him to lunch
And they started talking about days gone by
then she told him about her situation
And he hugs her when she started to cry

He told her of the big crush he had for her
And it has never gone away
and then he asks her to marry him
And he became a father that day

They both stand to clap proudly in the crowd
As they watch their teenage son graduate
Then all went out to the city that night
to have dinner and celebrate
