Chapter Forty

Sina

It's raining hard outside but I didn’t want to be in his house anymore. So, I walked out and didn’t stop. I didn’t have anything on me, and I wasn’t going to ask him for any help. It wasn’t a far walk from his place to Mama’s so I just kept walking. I’m not sure how long I’ve been walking for but it’s starting to get a little cold. My feet are swelling up and I’m hungry. I pray that I’m not going to get sick because I don’t have time for that. I feel my son kick, and I stop walking because I need to catch my breath. I stand there with both hands on my belly and feel baby Elijah move again. I have so much going on in my head that I can’t stop myself from crying. Everything starts to crash down around me and I feel overwhelmed and heavy with emotion. I was about to tell Eli that I was carrying his son, but then his whole face changed and I don’t know what made him so angry. One minute he’s inside of me and the next minute he’s telling me that he hates me and throwing me out of his house.

My chest feels tight and all I want to do right now is be in bed and cry myself to sleep. When I found out that I was pregnant the first thing I wanted to do was call him and tell him that I was carrying his baby, but I didn’t want to add anymore on top of his plate. He had every right to know. There’s no excuse, but because I thought Becca was pregnant with his baby, and I didn’t want to be the reason why they couldn’t be a family. It still didn’t make it right that I didn’t tell Eli.

I’m still shocked that Becca is carrying my brother’s baby and not Eli’s, but that’s for another day. I didn’t keep it from him because I hated him, I did it because I thought it was the right thing to do. Am I sorry that I didn’t tell him? Of course I am. Would I change anything if I had the chance? Absolutely not! Did he hurt me with his words? His words broke the parts of my spirit that I had left.

It feels like I’ve been walking for hours. My feet are killing me and I’m exhausted. A little piece of me hoped that Eli would come after me but he doesn’t. I need to stop and rest, but I can’t because I need to get home. I don’t want anyone, especially Emma to worry about me. I’m walking along thinking about the clusterfuck that is my life right now when I feel a sharp pain rip across my stomach. I stop and try catching my breath, but the pain is so bad that I can’t think straight. I cradle my belly in my arms as another pain tears through me.
