[¥]Chapter 16[¥]

¬£¬This is Too Much to Handle¬£¬


I woke up to a bright light and a massive headache. My vision was blurry so I could not see that well. When it was clear, I was in the hospital. What is going on?

"What happened?" When I talked, my throat hurt a little.

"Hey baby girl. You okay?" I shook my head but then started getting a headache. I lay back down and the doctor walked in. He looked at a chart then back at me and smiled.

"Okay Ms. Bright, I see you're a wake now." He wrote something down on the chart then placed it on a little table in my room. "How you feel?" He asked checking my heartbeat and everything.

"Good I guess. What happened?" I asked again. My throat was still hurting a little when I spoke. He just looked up at my dad and then back down to me. "What is it that bad?" I asked looking from my dad to my doctor, his name tag read McKinley MD.

"I think I should let you tell her." Dr. McKinley said before he walked out and my dad sat in a chair beside me.

"Daddy what's wrong?" I asked getting worried that I might be dieing. The silence it self was killing me.

"Did you and Kelly have sex?" He finally asked. He was looking out the window when he asked me. I was somewhat hesitant with my answer. I never told my parents that Kelly and I had sex yet. I mean I was going to tell them just need the right time to well I guess now is that time.

"Yeah." I hesitated a little. "Did you use protection?" he said finally turning his attention to me.

"Dad of course we did. What makes you think we did not? What's going on?" I was confused. What does this have to do with me being in the hospital?

He turned his attention back to the window and said, "Apparently it didn't work."

"What do you mean 'it didn't work'? I was there." I said defensively.

"Well the doctor said the reason why you weren't feeling so good was because you were pregnant and you have some type of stomach virus." He looked at me and my facial expression was priceless.

My eyes shot big when he said that I was pregnant. How could I be we used a condom, I even double-checked that it did not break, which it did not. What the hell man. I was speechless and mad all at the same time. I do not even know what to do right now. Should I blink, talk, cry, and maybe even yell I am so confused right now. "So what now?" I finally asked getting myself together.

"Well there's good news and bad news. All depends on how you take it. What do you want first?" He said standing by the window.

I sat up and said, "Hit me with the bad news." I always go for the bad first. Because once I know the bad news, I can almost figure out the good.

"Well you were only a week pregnant, but by the virus affecting your body, you lost the baby when you passed out." All of a sudden, I felt sad. I do not know why but I did. Losing the baby made me feel useless. I know I should not be worrying about a child right now but I always wanted one. But I cannot be a mother just yet. I still have school to finish and a career to work on. I am just to confuse right now.

"And the good news?" I finally asked pushing everything in the back of my mind. It is obvious the virus did not do serious damage and I am okay.

"The virus didn't affect any of the internal organs. So you'll be okay." He looked at me and saw hurt in my eyes. Did I call it or what? This whole day has been too much.
