The Test

Shauna wiped down the last table at the tiny diner where she had worked the last four years of her life. The day had been long and drawn out and she was ready to leave the smell of greasy burgers and oil behind. There was something that was weighing on her mind all day, for a couple of days infact. She was late. A week late. She was only 19, with a shitty job and enough money to afford herself and nothing else. Well, herself and a test. A test that would tell her if her life would change forever.
Shauna had always been a good girl, done what she was told, stayed on the right side of the law, respected her elders. And she also insisted that her boyfriend wear a condom when they played around. Now she would have to find out. She had never taken this kind of test before, she was nervous but needed to know.
Now it was time to wait...
