One evening, Brenda gave Grace a heartfelt pep talk. “You have to tell them, Grace. It won’t be easy, and they might not react the way you hope, but the truth is the only way forward. You deserve to raise your child without living in fear.” Grace nodded, tears welling in her eyes but a spark of determination igniting within her.
With Brenda’s support, Grace worked up the courage to speak to her parents. On the day of the meeting, Brenda accompanied her, standing silently by her side as Grace faced her family. She revealed everything—the baby, the boyfriend, and her desperate attempts to keep it hidden. Her parents’ reaction was immediate and harsh.
