Baby Crazy

Chapter 3 – From Nightmare to a Sweet Dream

Dream

It was a misty night, around 1 in the morning. 'Where am i?' Sora thought. It seemed so real, she felt heavy around her stomach, she felt as though she was nearly nine whole months pregnant. She looked around in the mist, it was really dark but there was light from the lamppost. The mist was slowly dispersing so the sight was becoming more clearly than before. She was on the main streets of Odaibi. She felt very called, but she also felt something she never expected. Love.

Love for the baby inside. Somehow she felt that her and her baby were in danger and she felt as though she needed to protect it. But how? This feeling inside her gave her a new path, a light leading her to a better future, a future that might not even happen if she doesn't have her child with her. She put her arms around her stomach protectively. Coming back to reality. Why was she here, at this time? Where were her friends?

Suddenly, a strange feeling started rising inside her, it gave her chills in her spine and she then started to realize what this feeling was. It was fear. Fear from the guy who gave her the child. She was there, alone, with no-one beside her.

"Hello Sora," it was him. She turned around to see he was only a meter away from her. Sora opened her mouths but nothing came out. She knew her fear got to her more than she had thought. "What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?". She stepped back and tightened her arms around her stomach. If she couldn't protect her self, then how could she protect her child? He stepped closer to her.

"Well i don't have time for this. I have come for what i wanted," he explained it like it wasn't a big deal to any of them and he came for something that belonged to him.

"Stay away from me and me child," she whispered. Her voice wasn't as strong and clear but he heard her anyway because of the expression on his face. He new he was in control, he was stronger than her and he knew he can do anything to her whenever he wanted to do so. He smiled a really wicked smile, he stepped closer and she stepped further away.

"Stay away,"Sora said, and this time, her voice was more stronger than before. He ignored her comment and started taking something out of his thick leather jacket. It looked wooden from the top and sharp metal from the bottom. Sora then realized it was a knife and very soon she started to get panicky. He started to walk towards her and Sora was stood, frozen. She wanted to move but fear had got the better of her and she didn't know what to do.

"minal would love to hear from the criminal. He knew he stabbed her heart like a sword being crashed into a shield. He lifted his knife above his head, grabbed her arm and flew his hand towards her and...

End Dream

"No!" Sora screamed from the top of her lungs.

From their rooms, Mimi and Jun rushed into Sora's bedroom. Both were in their pyjamas and both had messy hair with the eye-liners which had been nicely done, scrubbed at the edges of their eyes. Mimi opened Sora's bedroom light while Jun went and sat down next to Sora.

"Sora, are you okay sweetheart?" Jun asked her like a mum would do to her child at the child's needs. Sora looked at her surroundings and figured out that what she just saw and felt, was only a dream. But the dream felt so real. She looked at her two very close friends and felt fresh tears running down her cheeks. She wrapped her arms around her stomach where the baby inside her was being created. Then she felt both her friends wrap their arms around her for comfort.

"Sora, what happened?" Mimi asked. "You know you can tell us, we're your friends."

Sora looked at both of them.

"But you don't have to tell us if you don't want to," Jun said.

"Yeah. I wasn't pushing you or forcing you to speak. I just meant that we are always their ... you know?" Mimi added to make Sora feel that she isn't going to be forced to saying something that she didn't want to say. Sora nodded for their reply. She opened her mouth a few times, thinking if she should say something or not. Mimi and Jun waited patiently for Sora to talk.

"In my dream ... i was on a street ... and i was nearly nine moths pregnant," Sora started saying as she tightened her grip around her stomach. "Then i heard a voice ... and it was him," a few more tears rolled down her cheeks. "He came to get what he wanted ... he wanted my child," Mimi and Jun were a little shocked by that comment. Just ten to twelve hours ago Sora didn't want this child and now she called the baby inside her, her child. Did this mean Sora accepted the child she was going to have in nine months time?

"He then pulled out a knife ... from his pocket ... and ... he raised it to stab me ... that's when i got up!" she started to cry again. She quickly put her hands on her face, letting wet tears fall on them, not being bothered to wipe them. Her friends held her tight for long five minutes, when she finally stopped crying because she had no more tears to shed. Just the pain in her heart which would most probably stay there for a long time. 'Until someone comes and heals it'. She thought.

"Sora?" Mimi asked.

"Yeah?" Sora asked her back. Looking down.

"Well, we were wondering ... that ..." Jun said.

"We were wondering, how come you've ... accepted, the unborn kid inside you?" Mimi asked, finishing off the same thing her and Jun were thinking. Sora looked up to see that her friends, now maneuvered to sit facing her, had asked a reasonable question. The truth was, Sora didn't know her self. Was it because the child was a part of her? Because she knew someday or another she would accept this child. So why not now? Why later? After all, what has the child done to her? The only person who gave her grief and pain was the guy himself who did this to her. So why should the kid suffer for something he didn't do?

"Because this unborn child, is a part of who i am," Sora replied. "I know what you guys must be thinking, how can i love a child who was not only a part of me, but the part of something whom only hurt me?" She looked in their eyes at a time as she saw them nod. "Well, this child is more mine than his. And I'm not going to let is suffer for something it hasn't done." Sora then smiled, a true smile, a smile filled with love and care. This smile which belonged to the child inside her, and she would fight and protect her child no matter what, she won't let him take it away from her. That's a vow she will keep to her and her baby inside her.

After their chat, looking at the clock, Sora sighed then yawned. Four o'clock in the middle of the night. Sora laid down, putting her arms around her stomach in a protective manner, slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep as fast as an airplane crossing over a tiny island.

Dream

"Hey sweety," Sora said to a child inside her arms. "You're my baby aren't you? Yes you are, oh yes you are." She said while rubbing her child's rosy cheek with her index finger. Sora's baby had fair skin, with rosy cheeks and a cute small nose. The baby was wearing baby grows and s tiny bib with a cute teddy bear on it. The baby was only around two months old and was rather cute. Sora's child started smiling and giggled, probably because it felt ticklish.

The baby then grabbed Sora's index finger with it's tiny cute soft hand. Sora kissed her child's hand and held her child closer than earlier, giving her baby a cuddle with full of love and the baby smiled and giggled again. Sora kissed her child's soft forehead, which in return she got a little hug from the baby somehow, since it put it's arms half way around Sora's neck, after all the child had very small and really cute arms covered with baby grows.

"Hey," someone called Sora.

"Hi," Sora said as she turned to see who it was and smiled at that person. The person walked towards her and kissed Sora on the cheek, who smiled back at the person. The person kissed Sora's child on the cheek. The baby giggled again and grabbed the person's index finger as it did before with Sora's.

"Looks like my sweetheart likes you," Sora said to the person.

"Yeah, just like you," the person said back and leaned forward to kiss Sora on the lips.

Still Dreaming

While sleeping, Sora, for the first time after the incident, was having a sweet dream and hopefully, she would be having dreams like this during her days in the future.
