Why the heck did I agree to the date? I was having Augustus's child. And I was dating someone else. I am guilty. Take me away, officers!
Ugh, I wanted to scream as I drove away. I found it increasingly hard to breathe. I forced myself to calm down. I was having another scan in less than a week. I would be okay until then, I forced myself to think. I took deep breaths through my cannula. Everything would be alright. Breathe....
Before I knew it, I was at my house. I wiped my face once more before sneaking inside. As I walked to my room, I realized something.
My parents weren't home.
They're always home.
"Mom," I called. Nothing. I start to panic. Oh, God. Ohhhhh, God. My heart thumped in my chest. I forced air into my crappy lungs. I thought the happiest thoughts I could.
"Dad?" I almost screamed. Still, there was no answer. I couldn't help myself. I almost dropped Philip as I ran through the house as fast as my lungs would permit. Tears started pooling in my eyes the longer I searched. Then, the sound of the garage hit my ears. I let out a sob of relief.
I stumbled to the garage door. I yanked it open. I collapsed on the stairs to see my parents holding grocery bags.
"Hazel," my mom said tightly, "are you okay?"
"I thought something had happened to you guys," I told her. My breathing was choppy. Dad saw what was going on, and dropped his bags to sit next to us on the steps.
"We're okay, honey. We just needed to get some things. We wanted to do it together. It's okay. We're okay," Mom said. I cried in to her shoulder. We finally went back inside.
