Life Is A Surprised (Laurmani) Completed

Chapter 55

Mani's P.O.V.

"Cervical inflammation?" I ask the doctor in the emergency room. I've been here for a hour and a half, freaking out and they finally conclude, after an exam, that it's cervical inflammation.

"Yes. Pregnancy can do that because of the weight and pressure of the baby. It can sometimes cause a little bleeding. The baby is fine and you have nothing to worry about. I would schedule an appointment with your primary care provider for as soon as possible, just to be safe but you're good to go Mrs. Jauregui." The 20 something medical student says to me.

"Thank god. Let's get the hell out of here. It reeks of influenza in here." Lauren says as I step down from the table. She hates hospitals and is convinced they're all the reason people get sick in the first place. She's currently standing in front of me with gloves and a mask on that she asked for as soon as I was taken care of. Sick people gross her out. Lauren and I quickly leave the hospital and go home and sleep.

~3 weeks later~

I'll be really happy when this baby gets out of my body. I'm over having to pee every 5 minutes. I leave the bathroom and hear my phone ringing from the living room.

"Lauren! Get that for me!" I tell her as I leave my bedroom and walk towards the living room.

"That's...I won't say what I was thinking. Thanks for calling. Bye." I hear Lauren say into the phone.

"Who was it?" I ask.

"Uh...I forgot her name but she called to tell us Camila killed herself last night." My eyes widen and Lauren nods.

"Yeah...I didn't know what to say to that either." She says.

"Did they say how? Or why?" She shakes her head.

"I mean she was ready to take us all out, I'm not surprised." Lauren says with a shrug. I sigh and shake my head.

"Aiden..." I say and Lauren realizes that we have to tell him.

"So...how exactly do we tell him she killed herself in jail? He doesn't even know she was there." After the ordeal with Camila, we kept it from Aiden. We weren't going to add anything else to his plate right now...and maybe we still don't have to.

"Would it be bad if we just...blamed it on her past?" I ask and Lauren shrugs.

"I don't want to lie to him but...let's not offer up information he doesn't ask for." Lauren says.

"Sometimes the whole truth hurts more than helps." I say then sigh. Aiden is in his room now.

He has been doing a little better since going to therapy but I'm afraid, this might send him backwards. My baby boy has been through so much already. I sigh to myself and mentally prepare myself for this.

"Want to just bite the bullet now? We can't put it off because he might want to go to the funeral." Lauren says and I nod.

"Aiden!" She yells.

"Yeah?!" He yells in response.

"Come here!" Honestly, we could have just gone to him. Soon, Aiden comes into the living room.
