The Testing Test

She walked to the clinic Her legs trembling Her heart pounding She had no choice but to agree with him Its a decision my made together to do this He was quite yet a lot of noise was in his head pictures of how many times he had done it were playing in his mind in HD print He remembered all the kisses All the different romances with different lovers And felt like running away From this sweet sixteen They had no choice he had promised her many times never to 'release' into her this time it had happened Two weeks back At the Casino where she smoked her first cigarette as he enjoyed the pipe She was scared that her dad would kill her He was afraid his faithful wife would find out They were afraid of the disease They walked together but like strangers She remembered the first kiss with him and felt strong He looked at her sweet eyes and courage flowed in his veins like the Nile into dry Egypt This was only temporary as they reached the clinic and met the physician who looked at them and asked the man Is she your daughter? He didn't say anything She looked down shying away The doctor got all answers As he stated the test She prayed: Dear Lord if you get me out of this It wont do it again He prayed: Dear Lord if you only pardon me here It will never ever happen AGAIN A prayer God had answered More than seven times On different teenagers She wished If all comes to the worst at least she walks HIV positive without the pregnancy He wished at least they find her pregnant than HIV positive The doctor did well what he was being paid for As he tested the blood did the urine pregnancy testing Then came with the results The way he stood before them it was hard To predict the result The man's heart beat faster The girl breathed harder The doctor stammered something None of them heard it The doctor decided to do the right thing Give them counsel before the results They sat like the saint peter's monk and nun As the man he held paper that had the fate of there future Spoke for one full hour They all promised to take the right path Then he gave them the results ALL Negative That night they chose to celebrate The results together And They Did IT AGAIN
