"No Peri we can do this if we talk it through we can be this child's parent," announced Tom. I couldn't stand the emotional pain, I had to get away. I ran out of the door.
"Perk we can do this. Please talk to me," shouted Tom, making me turn around at the top of the steps outside the Lomax's.
" Tom sorry for running away but I can't do this. You see it on TV the mothers are left with the babies and I can't do that," I said, feeling anxious.
"Peri don't be so stupid you know I will always be there for you and the baby no matter what we decide in the end," Tom said looking rather upset.
"I know you would be but my mum had me at 14 too and I don't want this child to be brought into the world like me. I can't do that!" I screamed getting more annoyed.
"Pez you are upset. Come inside and we can talk it through you can't make the decision of if you are going to keep the baby a few minutes after finding out," Tom said reassuringly.
"Ok but don't expect me to change my mind," I said. I began to walk the slowed down.
Tom I have gone dizzy!" I said second before falling down the stairs.
"Peri, Peri wake up. We have called an ambulance you are going to be ok," screamed Nico, she must have been around and saw me fall. Sirens called as an ambulance whizzed around the street. Everything was a blur from there onwards all I know is I ended up in hospital.

In hospital
"Omg your ok Pez I was so worried," said Tom at the top of his voice. I couldn't see anybody else about.
"What am I doing here?" I exclaimed, scared they would find out about my pregnancy.
"You fell after we talked about the pregnancy. The doctor doesn't know what it could be so has taken some test," Tom explained.
"Keep your voice down the less people who know about the baby the better. Where is Nico I heard her voice!" I whispered trying not to be heard.
"She is outside do you want her?" Tom asked.
"Yes and hurry up I need to tell Nico about the baby before she finds out by some nurse or doctor," I once again whispered.
