One Week Later

Some hours after his surgery, I watched him sleep. I held his hand, talking to him.

“You know I didn’t think I would be in this position. I never wanted to feel this way about someone, and yet even though we haven’t been together long enough, I feel that we were brought together for a reason. I know you’re strong and you’ll get through this. We will get through this. Together. You and me. And I need you here. I need you to be here for me and our baby. I don’t know what I’m doing yet, but I want to decide with you or discuss with you. I know neither one of us are ready, but we can do this. I know we can,” I said, wiping the tears from my eyes.

“You’re pregnant?” I heard a woman say, and I turned around to see Adrian’s mother standing there.

“Yes. I’m pregnant. I found out the day Adrian got hurt. I didn’t get a chance to tell him yet,” I said my throat feeling like a frog inhabited it.

“Is it his?”

“Of course it is. I haven’t been with anyone else.”

“Hmm. I find that hard to believe. You think you can trap my son with a baby. You think he would give up his career for you and some bastard child,” she said coldly, her voice calm. So calm in fact that I wasn’t sure if I heard that correct.

I shook my head. “No. I don’t want him to give up his career. I want him to know that’s all,” I said, trying to keep my voice from wavering. It was definitely hormones because my normal response wouldn’t have been to cry.

“You should get rid of it. I’ll give you the money for it,” she said nonchalantly.

“No! Why would I? This isn’t a decision you get to make. Sorry,” I replied sarcastically.

“Get out. And leave my son alone, you bitch! You will not ruin his life. I will make sure of it,” she said.

“He wants me here.”

“If you don’t leave, I will have security drag you out.”

I thought about the alternatives to get into it with his mother here and decided I would talk to him once he was discharged. I didn’t want to make his recovery any worse than it needed to be. I was after all, just his girlfriend. Not his wife. Not his parents. And I understood that, but it didn’t make me feel any better, that he was here and his mother took me as a threat when all I wanted to be here until he woke up.

I decided to walk around a bit. I knew Marcy would be waiting, but I needed some time to think. I was emotional and the tears came falling again. My parents didn’t even know that I was pregnant and I knew they too would think I was giving up my life for a guy I didn’t know that well. Maybe his mother is right. Maybe I need to get rid of this baby.
