Life As Melanie

Chapter 60

*we arrive at hospital*

Mrs. Neal: *yells* We need a nurse over here now!

*nurse runs*

Nurse: *looks at my bleeding* What happened?!

Me: Jamal would you do the honors...

Jamal: She's pregnant & she fell.

Nurse: How?

*I look at Jamal*

Mrs. Neal: That's not the issue, the issue is that she's pregnant, she fell, she's bleeding, and she's in pain!

Nurse: Okay, you two will have to wait out here.

*nurse takes me to the back*

Mrs. Neal: *fading off* I'll be right out here Melanie, and I'll call your mom too!

*after thousands of tests & labs*

I feel like a test animal. I don't think I can take another needle or tube being put into my body! I just hope my baby girl is okay. I didn't mean to hurt her, I just reacted off how hurt I was.

*doctor & my family walk in*

Ma: *runs over to the bed* Baby are you alright?!

Me: I'm fine now ma

Doctor: Hi, my name is Dr. Drew, and I have your lab tests right here.

Mrs. Neal: Will she be okay?

Ma: Is everything clear?

*Jamal tries to look away*

Doctor: She's fine, but the baby isn't.

Ma: What do you mean doctor?

Dr. Drew: Ms. Melanie when you took that fall you fell right on top off your baby & busted your sac.

Me: What?!

Dr. Drew: Without its sac the baby cannot survive. I'm sorry Ms. Melanie but your baby girl is no longer with us.

*I look at Jamal*

Me: *starts to tear up* Do you see what you've done? I've lost my child, my child I was living for! You ruined my life all over a quick nut! I was always there for you, riding for you, holding you down, not giving you a reason to question my loyalty, and this is how you repay me?! How could you do this to me? To me, Melanie, the girl who loved you thru every fucking thing that you put me thru! From the lies, the cheating, the rumors, and thru it all I was always there for you like a fucking dummy! Jamal how could you do this?!

Jamal: *walks over crying* Melanie I'm sorry...

*tries to grab my hand*

Melanie: Don't touch me! No your not sorry! I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU!

Ma: Melanie don't say that.

Me: I mean it ma!

Mrs. Neal: *crying* I can't take this!

*Mrs. Neal walks out*

Jamal: Mel...

Me: Everybody just get out, go!

Ma: Melanie...

Me: *screams* GO!

*they both walk out*

I didn't even want to be living anymore, because it was like everything was being taken from me. I've never felt this kind of pain before, and I'm not sure if I want to be here to feel it any longer.
