Chapter 43
Michael's POV
I sat on Janet's couch with Aimee in my lap, sitting between my legs, that were stretched out on the couch.
David and Janet sat on the opposite couch, holding one another.
We were chatting and laughing about fun times.
I was happy that Janet and David were laughing.
They needed it.
I know they did.
I would have needed it too.
After a bit more laughing and munching on snacks, Janet became silent.
I knew she was thinking about the fact that she couldn't have babies again.
I finished chewing my chip and sighed.
"Janet?"
She looked up with me with David's arms around her waist.
"It's okay Dunk. Maybe the doctors made a mistake-"
she angrily slapped her hands on the couch, cutting me off.
"No Michael! They didn't make a mistake! I cannot have babies!! Okay?! I will never ever be able to have a family with David! Ever!!" She yelled crying.
I sighed and looked down.
"You could always have a surrogate mother..."
,NO I CAN'T!! I HAVE BAD EGGS MICHAEL!! MY EGGS DON'T WORK!! ITS MY FAULT!! IT'S ALL MY FAULT!!....it's all my fault."
I sighed.
Aimee grabbed my held and held it, softly rubbing the top of my hand.
"Baby, we could always adopt."
I instantly looked up.
Janet shook her head.
"I...I don't know. I don't know if that is what I want."
I gulped.
"If-if you adopt... I know the perfect kid for you." I said smiling.
Aimee suddenly looked up at me smiling brightly.
She knew exactly what I was thinking!
Donny has a chance!
I turned back to Janet and she looked at me weird.
"Michael... I don't want to adopt. I want my own." She cried turning into David's chest.
"Dunk, if you would just meet this kid, I promise, you will love him. I know you will!"
"No Michael!"
"Janet come on please!"
"No Michael, stop it!"
I moved Aimee and stood up.
I walked over to her, sadly.
"Janet... Please just meet him..."
"Michael! No! It's gonna make me even sadder. Stop!"
"You might change your mind! Just ple-"
"DUDE!! SHE TOLD YOU TO STOP!" David said getting up and pushing me.
I fell backwards and hit the back of my head on the coffee table.
Aimee gasped and I quickly felt her pick up my head and place it in her lap.
She was already on the floor holding me.
"Michael?! Michael baby are you okay?"
I groaned, Janet then screamed.
"David!?!"
He looked away ashamed then walked upstairs.
Janet ran to my side and felt the bump on my head.
"You okay?"
I sat up slowly, then nodded.
I had tears in my eyes as I looked at Janet.
"I just want you to meet him. He's a great kid. He really is."
She nodded.
"Okay... I'll meet him. I promise. But first...."
She turned towards the stairs.
"DAVID!! GET DOWN HERE!"
David slowly walked down the stairs and walked over to us.
"..Yes?"
"Apologize. Now."
He sighed, then looked up at me, sadly.
"I'm sorry I pushed you and you hit your head. I'm just really upset... Can you ever forgive me?" He said reaching out his hand.
I grabbed it and pulled myself up.
"Of course I can. I had a feeling that was why you pushed me. It's okay."
"Okay. Good."
He smiled lightly.
Janet then spoke.
"David?"
"Yeah?"
"Michael has Someone he wants us to meet."
