SORRY FOR ANY MISTATES



Once the doctor left my mom just stood in the same spot staring at me.  I could see the hurt and disappointment plastered all over her face, I knew I was going to get it when the doctor left.  

What am I supposed to do now, what could I tell her?  I have to come up with a really good lie I can't tell her the truth, I don't know what my step father and his twin are capable of doing to not only me and my mom, but my unborn child.  I know this child is a rape child but I can't continue to kill all my eggs. Other than my mom I need somebody to love me too.  After this I know my mom is going to hate me and treat me differently. Not only is she struggling to take care of us with her CNA job now she has to help me take care of a whole baby. that is If she don't put me out on the street.  

    I never had a boyfriend I dont have girlfriends the only friend I had my whole life left me once we enter high school she realized I was to lame and she wanted to be popular. My mom is the only person I had and I'm going to loose her too. All because I'm pregnant and choose to keep it. All because of that big good for nothing fool at home all because I'm too scared to tell anyone.  And the worse part is I don't even know who the father of my unborn child is. after few minutes of standing and staring me down she grabbed her purse and left.  I guess to cool off in the bathroom or something.  I lay back on my bed and thought of what lie I could feed her

 "Get up you been discharged, we will talk about this when you are strong enough and have you voice back she said coming back in my room a hour later

Even though all my bruises was healing I was still very sore I manged to get off the bed to put on the  clothes she brought me. After making sure we packed all our things the nurse wheeled me to the front of the hospital where my mom was waiting for me in the car.  When she saw us she got out the car and helped the nurse put me in the front seat of the car. She thank the nurse and we drove off.

"I'm... Sorry mommy" I said barely above a whisper. 

"don't try to speak the doctor said it's best if you don't speakers for at least a week" I turn my attention back to the window and allow more tears  to fall down my face.

A MONTH LATER

 I'm much better now I got my voice back my cast is off, and my face is back to normal now all the bruises  have gone down.  My mom took her vacation from work early to take care of me. and she let me stay home two extra weeks from school to make sure I was ready.  

She's been a certified nursing assistant for almost ten years now,  so she had no problems at all with bathing, dressing and feeding me. Not that I couldn't do them myself, she just wont let me.  Since my mom is always home Richard and his son are never around, all of a sudden they have things to do with their lives. 

I know you're probably wondering how come I haven't talked to my mom about the abuse and rape I receive from my step father and his son. and the thing is my mom have been threw a lot. We have tried to leave before and that didn't end well, my mom ended up in the hospital and I ended up in jail. 
we've tried many times but he always found us and brought us back

My step father is not somebody to mess with he has connections out there because he used to be a police officer so he know everybody from lawyers to drug dealers.

If I tell her I'm afraid she's not leaving this house in one piece. Knowing her    she will go off and end up in a body bag and nothing good will come out of it. So as long as I'm still alive and breathing I'm ok with her not knowing what happens when she's at work
