Chapter Four
"Okay people. Call us up and tell us your craziest stories. The people that has the craziest story gets two tickets to the upcoming Hanson concert. Call us." Marilynn went over to her phone and dialed the radio station's number. It was ringing. "KOWL, you're on the air. What's your name and story?"
"My name is Marilynn. My story starts when I was twelve, which was, ah, four years ago now. I had a child nine months later, named Lucy Marie. I had her when I was twelve. Her fourth birthday is next month, on the fourth of September. She hasn't ever seen her father in person before. Just on t.v." She took a deep breath. She hadn't ever told anybody this. Not even her parents. And now she was about to tell the whole city. As if they'd believe her anyway. But she had to get backstage, and confessing this was the only way to get there.
"Your point being..." The d.j.'s encouraged.
"My point is, is that Lucy's father is Zac Hanson of Hanson." There was absolute silence on both ends.
"No way." They finally said. "Give the girl the passes. That's the craziest story I've ever heard."
"Deffinitely." All the d.j.'s said.
"Great. Thanks guys. It's true though."
"We're sure it is." They went to a commercial break. Marilynn knew it was Zac and her child. Lucy did have some of his characteristics. Like her eyes and lips.
Marilynn had told her parents she had been raped when she started to show. Of course her parents had her out of school for a week undergoing tests. And then they sent her to a rape victim therapy group. All the women yelled, screamed and cried, trying to cope with the pain and move on with their lives, while Marilynn sat silent, knowing she wasn't and hadn't been raped.
Marilynn had had huge fights with her parents on if she should keep the baby, put it up for adoption or have an abortion. One of the arguments was so big and upsetting that Marilynn decided to disappear for a couple of days. When Marilynn thought it was safe to return, only then did her parents agree with her to keep the baby.
