I'M SORRY (Daniel-André Tande)

Part 21

21.

Markus did what he promised, he took me to the doctor. The doctor confirmed what I already knew and calculated the date when baby was made.

It was Danny's. The baby was Danny's.

The next thing to do was telling Andi and ask him what to next because I had no idea. But I didn't want to ask Markus because he already did a lot for me and I just couldn't ask him something again.

"You were looking for me?" I heard Andi's voice. I turned around and saw him standing in the middle of my room.

"Yeah,I need to tell you something and I need you to be quiet until the end," I asked him and he nodded in confirmation that he understood.

I sat down on the bed and he sat down beside.

"I'm pregnant. I'm pregnant with Danny," I whispered and let tears to fall down.

He didn't say anything, he just hugged me. He let me cry in his shirt. He was playing a role of a brother again but not a big brother, a younger brother. Because he had no idea what to tell me. He had no experiences with that kind of things.

Andi stayed with me until he really needed to go because he had a competition. He said that I can stay in the hotel and that I don't have to go to the competition.

I stayed at the hotel and ordered room service because I was hungry. It was around 5 pm when someone knocked on the doors. I thought it was room service and I went to open the doors. But it wasn't room service. It wasn't even close to room service.

"Sophia," I heard her whisper. She looked just the same as the last time I saw her.

"Julia," I whispered back.

I didn't know what to do, I didn't know if I should slap the doors in her face or I should invite her in. I just stood there in front of her. She did the same until I lost it.

"What are you doing here?" I asked her coldly

"I was released from the hospital and I wanted to come and visit you. Aren't you happy that you see me?" she asked me.

There was something wrong on her but I didn't know what. I closely looke dat her. Her smile. That wasn't her normal, I knew her well enough to know that. It was that smile that was telling me that she had something up her sleeve.

"No, I'm not," I said and tried to close the doors. But she stopped them with her hands.

"Stop Julia! You have no right to be here. So please just go away and we'll talk when I'll come home," I said but she didn't want to give up.

"If you don't want to talk to me in the room then just come on the hall and listen to me. Please Sophia, please," she said and I gave up. I closed the doors and stepped outside to talk to her

"You have 2 minutes to explain what you need to," I said

"I know what you're going through right now. I know how does it feel. I know. So, please just do what I'm telling you, it'll be better for you, Soph. Please," she said and I was surprised. She somehow knew, I had no idea how but she did.

"Okay, then tell me what are you suggesting and I'll decide," I told her and she sighed

"You're not going to decide you're going to do it. You understand?" she asked me angrily

"We'll see. Just tell me," I said impatiently

"You're going to have an abortion," she said.

It took me a few moments to realize what she just said. She wanted me to kill the baby that was growing inside of me. She wanted me to kill a human being. I couldn't do that, I couldn't kill something that was growing inside of me.

"No, Julia. What are you talking about? I'm not going to have an abortion. Are you crazy? You lost your mind, again," I started to panic and she had to take my hands to calm me down.

"It's your only option Sophia. You can't lie to Stefan that the baby is his and you'll never have Daniel," she said.

It was like she would stab me, it hurt so much. The last words "you'll never have Daniel,". I felt an urge to slap her and I did. I slapped her so hard that it felt like I'd have slapped myself. But it wasn't like that. She slapped me back.

For first few minutes we were just standing there. Not even looking to each other. I didn't know what to do anymore. I turned my back at her and that was the biggest mistake I've ever done.

She pushed me and I lost my balance. I fell down the stairs. I felt every stair I fell on. I felt and heard my ribs crushing, my head was hurting and all I wanted was the pain to be over. And at one moment it was.

As I fell on the ground I felt so much pain but the only pain that was important to me at that moment was the one in my stomach. I forced myself to put my right hand on the stomach. I felt how I was bleeding and the tears were slowly running down my cheeks. I waited a few moments until I finally closed my eyes.

For the next few minutes I was only able to think about one thing. That I was losing my baby and I couldn't do anything. Everything because of my sister. Everything because of Julia. I trusted her.

I opened my eyes for the last time and saw my mom's face beside Julia's. The last words that I've heard were:

"We did it for your own good Soph. It's for your own good,"

Then I was gone in the darkness.
