Our Teen Pregnancy

Chapter Four - The Next Few Months

*Six months later*

"Okay so crib check, diapers and wipes check, baby swing, baby high chair, baby clothes and blankets, check check and check." I say to myself as I go through everything we got for the baby that is soon to come. We now have almost everything and now all we need is the odds and ends stuff like bibs and bottles and billies, stuff like that. I'm very big for being six months, but I love it and I wouldn't have it any other way. Tony and I are both working now to save up money for the baby. He's working at a restaurant as a cook and I'm working there as well as a waitress. As. I wait for Tony to come out of the shower I sit there and look at the baby book that will soon be filled up of memories before I know it. I start writing in it since we know basic stuff like who the parents are, what their name is going to be, and what gender the baby is. We had already found out and I'm so excited. She's going to be our little baby girl and we have already picked a name out for her, it's so beautiful and I love it. I picked the first name and Tony picked the middle name. Her first name shall be Amara, it is a Puerto Rican name and means eternally beautiful which she shall be. Her middle name is Precious-Faith, Tony picked this out because Precious was supposed to be my name and Faith is my original middle name. Her name shall be Amara Precious - Faith Alvarado. She of course will be taking Tony's last name which is also a Puerto Rican name as well. "Hey Baby" I hear Tony say as he comes out from the shower, he walks up to me and puts his hands around my belly. He always does this so he can rub and hold Amara. "How are my babies doing?" He says kissing my lips and then going down to kiss Amara. "We're great babe, just amazingly great and happy" I say kissing him and rubbing my belly at the same time he does. All of a sudden Tony and I jump back from each other because of something that had spooked and surprised us. It was Amara... she had kicked for the first time!!! "Baby oh my God she kicked! Did you feel that?! She kicked!!" "Haha I know babe I can feel it just as much as you can she's in my belly! Oh my God this is so exciting babe!!!" We both lay down together, he started to rub my belly and Amara more and we both fall asleep. Tony wakes me up just in time for work, we both work at the same place. We work at a cheap, little restaurant and I'm a waitress there and he is a cook. We get up and start getting ready for work, the uniforms aren't too bad for being a cheap little restaurant. I mean they're decent for being uniforms. I have to work until 11:00pm tonight, but Tony has to work until midnight and close up which would make him usually done at about 12:30. So me being the good girlfriend that I am, I stay after to help him close up and put everything away and lock up so we're done at about 12:15ish.

* A Few Hours Later *

"It's only ten o'clock, I have about one more hour to continue working and then I'm done and can go nap for about an hour in the back or something" I say to myself as I look at the time. "EXCUSE ME MISS!!! WILL YOU PLEASE COME TAKE MY ORDER NOW?!?! THAT'D BE GREAT THANKS!!!" Geez, I had just asked him if he was ready to order and he said no, to give him a few minutes. So I did and this is the thanks I get for waiting patiently on people. "Yes sir, how can I help you? What would you like to eat or drink?" "It's about time, yeah I'll take two chili dogs with a medium pepsi." he said with the most cockiest attitude ever. "Coming right up, it should be about ten to fifteen minutes." I say with a smile, kill them with kindness Kay. I start to walk away, but then I hear him bumble under his breath "Fat people can't do anything right!" I stop walking and turn around "Excuse me sir, but I am not fat. I'm six months pregnant with my babygirl." I say with the biggest smile on my face while I lay both of my hands on my stomach because I start thinking about Amara. "OH REALLY!? YOU CANT EVEN BE A GOOD WAITRESS LET ALONE ONE THAT ACTUALLY DOES HER JOB RIGHT, HOW DO YOU EXPECT TO BECOME A MOTHER!? OH I KNOW, WHENEVER SHES HUNGRY OR NEEDS CHANGING OR ANYTHING YOU'LL PROBABLY JUST SIT THERE AND DO NOTHING BECAUSE THAT IS ALL YOU ARE AND ALL YOU EVER WILL BE!! NOTHING!!! NOTHING BUT A PIECE OF CRAP WHO IS PUTTING THIS BABY IN AN AWFUL FAMILY !!!! HOPEFULLY FOR HER SAKE SHE GETS ADOPTED OUT AND AWAY FROM YOU!!!!!" oh crap, here comes the hormones, they're kicking in now. I burst into tears and I see Tony rushing over to me, he looks like he wants to beat the brains right out of that guy who yelled at me. "hey baby it's okay, don't worry about what he says he's just a douche. You're going to be a great mother and we're going to be great and amazing parents. The best ones Amara could ever have. We're going to love her more than anything. A red you're an amazing waitress babe, he's just and at himself or someone else for something and he's taking his bad day and anger out on you babe, it's not your fault. It's okay, I won't let anything ever hurt you. I promise hunny. " Tony says as he hugs me and rubs my belly feeling Amara kick some more. Maybe she knows mommy is upset and crying somehow. "Hey the boss said you can go ahead and go home an hour early babe, go home and rest and take a long hot bath or shower. I'll be home when I get off and I'll cuddle with you and Amara and we can have a movie night tonight babe. Okay hunny?" He kisses me and rubs my belly even more, he helps me out of my apron and takes the notepad to take orders on back to the kitchen. "Thank you for making me feel so much better babe, I love you so much and I know everything you said is correct and true, we'll be the best we can for her." I say smiling so big and kissing him. He always knows how to make me feel better and I love that he knows me so well that he can do this so well. I start my way home and I get about half way and then that's where it all goes wrong. I feel like someone is following me and behind me but I look and see nobody. That doesn't take away the feeling of being watched and being scared though. I call Tony and talk to him for the rest of the way home except I don't make it. "baby I'm scared... I feel like someone is following me... " "hey it's okay babe just talk to me for the rest of the way home okay babe? Just please be careful I don't want anything happening to my babies." And that's when I hear a motor starting behind me, I look back and see headlights coming. I naturally think it's just another normal car leaving their home, but it's not. The car starts speeding up while Tony is yelling through the phone what's wrong. And then that's when it happens... I fall back and see the car drive away... The pavement is cold and wet and the air is chilly... My back hurts and I'm worried about Amara... Tony has hung up by now, I hope he's a getting help. That's when I realized I have been hit by a car , I hope me and Amara are still alive and okay... Those are my last thoughts before I fall unconscious...
