18 Weeks

The Pregnancy Test /Chapter 3

It was another normal day at school. I woke up with queasiness and a slight stomach ache. I decided to suck it up and go anyways. I had planned to hang out with Gregory later on in the week. I was focusing in my studies after about 2 weeks putting everything off. While I was sitting in mathematics class I felt worse than I had before. Class ended and I had went home to rest thinking it was just a bug. A few days pass and I still felt queasy and sick. I had still gone to school anyways. While in class the queasiness reached its peak. I excused myself and ran to the restroom but did not make it. Instead I threw up violently in the hallway and was to the point of collapsing. A student nearby rushed for a teachers assistance and a teacher dialed 911 due to the fact I was not responding. When the paramedics arrive I was able to respond once again. They checked my blood sugar level and hydration and everything was normal. That confused me. I headed into the ambulance to the hospital. On the ride over I was confused I didn't know what was going on out why I was vomiting. The ambulance let me off and I met with one of the doctors and explained my awkward situation. The doctor handed me a cup and told me to pee into it and give it back. Now I've done this before at age 14 when I got a yeast infection and the doctors thought it was STDs. It wasn't. So I already knew what to do. After I was done I handed the cup back and the doctor and he told me told me to wait in the waiting room. As,I waited thoughts ran through my mind of what it could possibly be. Then my heart skipped a beat. I remember telling Greg about missing my period and the little spots of blood in my underwear. Could it actually be that Im pregnant! What seemed like hours was about 20 to 30 minutes before the doctor came back with the results. The doctor turned to me and replied SIERRA YOU ARE PREGNANT. I felt the sudden urge to cry. I couldn't believe my ears. At first I wanted to laugh and say yea right. But adding up all the events that's been leading up to it I had to believe. The doctor told me I was only 4 to 5 weeks along still very early in pregnancy. A few minutes later a nurse called me into a small office asking me about my insurance. My heart sank. I didn't have my own insurance I was still on my parents insurance which means they had to be notified. I told the nurse that I had to call my parents for the insurance. So I made a call to my dad and not my mom. He was shocked and surprised that I had become pregnant. He gave me the name to give to the nurse. About 20 minutes later my dad picked me up at the front entrance to the hospital. I got in and was so ashamed that I couldn't even look up. I just held my head down and started crying. I explained to my dad about Corey, then Greg. He said he forbade me to talk or see Gregory ever again and that I were to remain at the dorms and not to leave. He also said no Facebook. So he basically had me cut all ties with everyone except himself and mom. The rest of the way there I remained silent looking out the window. When we arrived back to the dorms he said to go back in and get some rest and that he would call me in the morning.
