Unrevealed Love

Chapter 16

I gasp when I look in the mirror hanging in my closet. 

“KATHY!” I yell as tears dance in my eyes. 

Kathy barges in my room. “What happened? Is the baby okay?” She rushes. I turn around and Kathy smiles. “Awe, Infinity you're growing a bump!” Kathy smiles as she walks over to me. 

“My stomach feels hard...and weird.” I complain as I look back down at my growing stomach. I was definitely showing.  

“Sweetie that is how a pregnancy works, but Jeez you're big for your first child.” Kathy says and my eyes go wide. 

“Is that bad?” I ask. 

Kathy shakes her head. “Oh no it's normal, I'm just surprised for you, because well you're just so small!” Kathy chuckles. I look back down at my stomach and rest my hands on it. 

I was now 11 weeks and three days and I was loving it. I've barely been throwing up and of course I was showing. It has been an amazing journey through these 11 weeks so far. My body's been changing, I've found some delicious mixture of foods, and the ultrasound pictures. I've had three ultrasounds so far, one at 8 weeks, 10 weeks, then the other day. My baby's just been growing more and more each time. 

I still have yet to tell Colt about my pregnancy. Every time I get the courage the flashback of when I told Kathy and my dad flash in my head and I immediately chicken out. I know something is going to go wrong when I tell him, especially the way he acted with Cage, I really don't want to piss him off. I know I need to tell him because he has the right to know but I just don't have that courage, no matter how many times I give myself a pep talk before meeting up with Colt, I just don't think I'll be able to. I know I'm a coward. 

“Is it that noticeable?” I blurt out. 

Kathy raises an eyebrow. “What do you mean?” She questions as she grabs the laundry basket she dropped while rushing inside my room. 

“Is it noticeable that I'm pregnant?” I ask. 

Kathy looks at me. “Honestly, Infinity it looks like your bloated but if someone were to put your hands on your stomach and feel how hard it is they would know. Stop worrying, you should be excited your showing. I know you're scared with Colt and everything, but I would be excited I'm showing.” Kathy replies as she leaves my room. I sigh and look in my mirror once more before I drop my shirt. With a sigh I grab my 11 weeks ultrasound picture and walk into Kathy's and my dad's room. 

“Hey, dad,” I hesitated. My dad turns around from his desk but then looks back at his work. I guess you could say things are the same, he hasn't eaten dinner with us for nearly 3 weeks and its just rocky. I needed my dad back. I walk over the edge of their bed and sit down. “Um, I have my 11 weeks ultrasound picture if you want to check it out?” I crave. My dad hesitates for a moment but he turns around in his chair, I smile. I hand him the picture and he slowly takes it, he looks at it for a little while but then he looks at me and starts crying. My eyes widen at the action and I stand up. “Dad, are you okay?” I question. My dad stands up and brings me into a bone crushing hug. “Dad, the baby.” I huff. My dad immediately lets go but he smiles.
