Gullible

Chapter 3

Sapphire P.O.V.

Me and Greg was getting ready to go to his mom house. I wore a black sweater dress with my Uggs. I curled my hair and let it all down my back. Greg wore some dark red True Religion pants with a white button down Polo with his black Prada. Once we was done getting ready we left out getting into Greg's car.

When we got there we notice his brother Andre car. Greg is the oldest of his four siblings. Andre is 24, his sisters Camille and Sheri are 19 and 20 Camille being the oldest out of the two. Andre owned a Construction company, Camille worked at the hospital with me and Sheri was still in college studying to be a teacher.

Greg knocked on the door and Sheri came and opened it.

" Hey " she hugged me then Greg. We walked in to see everyone sitting in the living room.

" Hello." I said.

" Whassup sis " Andre said hugging me. Followed by Camille and Mr. Hilton. We took a seat and Mrs. Hilton walked into the living room with a tray with glasses full of wine. We took one and sat around and talked until dinner was done.

As we ate. Mr. Hilton stood up and said he wanted to make an announcement. Mrs. Hilton stood up beside him.

" There is a reason we wanted to get you all together tonight." He looked at his wife smiled and continued ." Your mom has terminal cancer."

" what." Andre said.

" I've had it for a year now." She said

" so why you now telling us ma." Camille said. Greg was still quit.

" We thought it was going to go away but its not getting better." Greg then got up and walked out the house. I got up and followed behind him. He sat on the front porch with his face in the palm of his hand. I sat beside him and rubbed his back.

" I know how you feel. When my mom died of breast cancer shit hit me like a ton of bricks. She was the only person that's was there for me when I needed her. But I guess god had something better in stores for her. I know she's happier in heaven and when I think about it I just smile. I miss her so much but I know in my heart we will meet again. I'm not telling you to prepare your self for your mothers death, but I'm telling you that's this is what god wants. He closes one door to open a new one." He looked at me with years in his eyes. I pulled him into a hug. "I'm sorry." I said. I let him cry it out then he said he was ready to go home. He didn't even want to go inside to tell everyone bye. I told him I would meet him in the car so I can tell everyone good night. When I did I walked back to the car and got in. He let me drive. The ride was really quiet. I looked at him looking out the window thinking. My poor baby.

When we got home I helped him undress and get into bed. We both had work in the morning so we had to get some sleep. I climbed in bed with him. He pulled me into his arms and we both was knocked out within seconds.

A month later

Greg took his mom out a few weeks after his little break down. Now he makes sure to check up on his mom every day. He was a little sad but he knew everything was going to be okay. I was at work on my last hour and I was just ready to go home. I wasn't feeling good at all and all I wanted to do was go home and sleep.
For some reason I was in the mood for a double cheese burger and pizza. Unhealthy, I know but that's what my mind been on all day. I tired to fight it by eating a chicken salad but I only threw it up. Then it hit me. I was a month late for my period. What if I'm pregnant?

" Kelly I will be back " I said telling my co-worker before running to go find my favorite doctor in the hospital. Dr. Cortez. He was in room 208 talking to a patient. I knock on the door softly.

" Sorry to interrupt but Dr. when you are done can you meet me in the staff room."

" Sure." I closed back the room door and went to the supply room to get a pee cup. I took it and went to the bathroom. Once I peed in the cup I walked into the staff room where Dr. Cortez was already waiting for me.

" Darling what is it that you need."

" I know I can do this by my self but I'm scared I need u to run this." I handed him the cup. He looked at me funny.

" I need a pregnancy test." He smiled

" okay give me a few minutes. It should be ready for you by the time your ready to leave."

" okay " I walked back to the nurse station and finish filling out a few papers. I decided to text Greg to see what he was up to.

Me: Wyd?

Hubby: Meeting. Little girl went missing last night.

Me: Sorry to here that . Will you be home late?

Hubby: No regular time.

Me: okay see u at home love you ❤

Hubby: okay love you to baby.

I was getting ready to clock out when Dr. Cortez called me into his office. I walked in ready to here my result. He was sitting around his desk and when he notice me he looked up and took off his glasses

" Have a seat."

" Doc. just tell me." He stood up smiling.

" Well it looks like you are 6 weeks pregnant." I began. Jumping up and down. I hugged him and began to cry. I was so happy.

" Thank you. Thank you. Thank you."

" Your welcome. Now go home and rest. I will see you tomorrow morning." I hugged him one last time before leaving.

Im going to be a mom. I can't wait to tell Greg.
