I enter the apartment and shout my arrival to Jinx who was wide awake and sitting on our couch. She turned my head to face me and smiled. "Kenny," She stood up and hugged me. "I'm glad your okay, I didn't know where you were. You were gone for hours." She rubbed my back and I breathed in her flowery perfume.
"Hours?" I questioned, surely I couldn't have been strolling around town for hours. She nodded, "I heard the door close around 6:30 ish and now it's breaking noon." She pointed to the clock that hung over our fireplace.
"Are you alright? Do you want to talk..about anything?" She wrapped her arm around my shoulders comfortingly. "I'm fine I guess. I'm keeping the little sucker if that's what you mean." She engulfed me into a hug when I said those words and as she pulled away I could see tears staining her cheeks. "That's great news Kenny. I'm really proud of you."
We sat together on the couch and spoke. "Right now I'm worried on telling Gerard, if I want him knowing in the first place, and how he'll take it." I told her, breaking eye contact and glancing at the carpet. It was several minutes later before she broke the silence and gave her response.
"I think you have to tell Gerard, that's your job. He deserves to know. However which way he takes it is completely and totally up to him. You can't control that outcome no matter how much you try. This being said, from what you told me and what I've dug up on my own I think Gerard is a good guy and he'd be a fantastic father." She looked at me and again I could feel the pity, but somehow it felt different. It felt almost like understanding and worry rather than pity, which I greatly appreciated.
"I know Jinxy. I just. I just I'm nervous. I'm nervous for everything, although I doubt I'll ever be truly 'ready' for a kid, but there is somethings I intended to do before having a child. Like finishing my novel or getting married. I'm nervous I'll never be able to do those things now. I've made peace with the baby, I'm most definitely keeping them. I'm just so afraid of what lies ahead." I bury my head into the couch as Jinxy attempts to comfort me once again.
"It'll be okay Kenny. Don't worry."
