Chapter 1575 - A Lesson For Ron And Zula (2)

Zula inhaled a shaky breath. No matter what, she needs to talk to Sarah, and the sooner the better.

Zula wondered, when would be a good time to talk? Nothing seems like a good time, and the longer she waits, the more anxious she will be, so Zula decided to do it now. It's six o'clock, and everyone is up and getting ready for training, if they are not on the training grounds already.

Zula is aware that Sarah likes to sleep longer, but Zula is not sure how long is that. Well, she can contact Sarah, and Sarah will get back to her when she wakes up.

Zula got her phone and messaged Sarah: "Can we talk? It can't wait."

She stared at her phone for some time and exhaled. Zula was about to keep her phone on the side, when she got a response: "Study. In ten minutes."

Zula scooted off the bed carefully. There is no need to wake up Ron for this. With any luck, she will be back before she wakes up. With a solution… hopefully.

Zula picked up her panties from the floor before going to the closet where she found her suitcase which is still there since they returned from their trip. Luckily, there are clean clothes she can use.

…

In the study, Zula found Sarah whose eyes were half-closed, and she was supporting her head on her palm.

"I'm sorry for waking you up." Zula said.

Sarah waved and yawned. She would tell Zula that they will talk later, but Zula said that it can't wait, and considering that there were issues with Zula and Ron on the previous day and that Zula messaged her so early, Sarah decided not to delay. Hopefully, this will not take more than a few minutes, and she can go back to bed, next to Aiden.

"What is this about?" Sarah asked.

Zula fidgeted nervously, unsure how to say what she needs to say. Ah, it's embarrassing!

Sarah frowned and gestured toward the sofa. "Sit and start from the beginning."

Zula obeyed and spoke in a small voice: "Last night, I spent the night with Ron in the apartment."

Sarah's eyebrow arched suspiciously. She does not like that Zula is obviously uncomfortable. "And?"

Zula was staring at her hands which rested in her lap. "Well… we ended up… you know…"

"No, I don't know." Sarah was getting irritated by Zula's slow-talk and said the first things that came to her mind. "Did he have another episode? Did he force you into anything? Did he hurt you?"

Zula's head snapped up toward Sarah and she lifted her hands defensively. "No, no. It was not like that. I told him that it's OK. He didn't force me into anything."

Sarah paused when she realized that Zula confirmed how she and Ron had an intercourse, but then Sarah told herself that it's not unexpected. Ron is eighteen years old and Zula is sixteen and they are dating, and they love each other, and as normal teenagers, they are curious. And easily aroused.

However, based on Zula's behavior, something is off. "Then? Why are you like this?"

"Because…" Zula took a deep breath, gathered all her courage and started talking quickly while staring at the carpet: "We didn't use protection, and he didn't pull out and I am afraid of getting pregnant. Please, don't scold me. What should I do? I don't want to end up as a teen mother. I don't have a clue about motherhood. I don't know how to take care of myself, how will I take care of a child?"

Sarah narrowed her eyes at Zula. "How many times you attended sex-ed where we spoke about contraception? That is something to think about BEFORE you let a boy remove your panties."

Zula was back to staring at her hands. Well, she removed her panties herself, but that is a technicality and if she brings it up, Sarah will be more upset.

Sarah saw that Zula is in distress and she wanted to tell her about the morning-after pill but then she decided not to. Not yet, at least. Zula and Ron acted without thinking, and it could have consequences. If they didn't talk about contraception, Sarah would let it go, but now she can't. She will use this as an opportunity to teach Zula a lesson.

"How can you be so irresponsible? Zula, you have one body and one future. Tell me, is it worth risking ruining them for a short-lived pleasure? I never said that you should not enjoy with your boyfriend, but I told you to use protection so that you don't end up paying the price for something that can be easily avoided."

With every Sarah's word, Zula's head hung lower.

Sarah was about to scold Zula some more, but there was thumping at the door of the study. Sarah went to open the door and she watched Ron in his pajamas walk by her barefoot, like she does not exist. Great, now what?

Zula's eyes widened with every step Ron took toward her. Why does he look like someone died?

Sarah was startled when Ron fell on his knees and she heard him say: "I'm sorry, Zula. I ended up hurting you again. As promised, I will leave the Cliffside Villa and not bother you ever again…"

'What is this nonsense about leaving the Cliffside Villa?' Sarah wondered.

Sarah saw that Zula is looking at her helplessly and she frowned. This is getting more complicated by the minute. Is she supposed to handle all this mess on her own? Boys are Aiden's responsibility.

Sarah closed the door of the study and reached for her ear stud. "Aiden? Wake up, wake up! We have a situation in the study, and I need you. Now!"

Sarah glared at Ron. "Get up. Sit next to Zula and I don't want to hear a word from any of you until Aiden arrives…"

…

Five minutes later…

Aiden rushed into the study and paused at the sight of Ron and Zula, both staring at the carpet. His gaze moved to Sarah who is obviously not in a good mood. What did those two do to get Sarah out of the bed so early and even get her to wake him up?

Aiden remembers through his sleep that Sarah left the bed, but she didn't say anything and he assumed that she is going to the restroom and he went back to sleep. He was startled by Sarah's urgent voice which came through his ear stud, and he came here as soon as he could. Aiden thought that he will encounter a big commotion and not this heavy silence. Sometimes silence is more dangerous than a loud argument.

Aiden was confused. Didn't he help Ron yesterday with dinner which was supposed to romance Zula? What happened? How did Ron mess it up?

Sarah would laugh at Aiden's upside-down t-shirt and his adorably messy hair, but they have different things to deal with.

"Ron and Zula had sex last night without protection and Ron wants to leave the house."

Sarah went straight to the point and her words shook up the other three people in the room, for different reasons.

Aiden frowned. Is this why she woke him up? He understood that Sarah wants to make a point, but he is still sleepy. Who handles serious issues before 7 in the morning? Well, if Ron and Zula ended up rolling in the sheets, the romancing dinner was a big success, but why would Ron sleep with Zula without protection? Aiden felt like smacking him.

Zula was embarrassed. Why did Sarah say all those things in front of Aiden? And it would be less embarrassing if Ron is not here.

Ron was staring at Zula. He thought that he messed up by hurting Zula, but this seems to be a different type of mess. Did Sarah say: 'without protection'? Didn't they have a class where JoAnna spoke about contraception? For some reason, he assumed that Zula is taking the contraceptive pill, and last night he got carried away and he forgot to ask and… well, what's done is done and they are in trouble.
