Wolfy was still in her fetal
position against the wall staring blankly at the door in front of
her. She felt heartbroken, hurt, betrayed, and she was on the verge
to leaving. Silent tears ran down her face as she brought her shot
gun closer. She loaded it up slowly and quietly while putting in her
lap and waiting for the first sound of movement outside the room. Not
soon after a loud thumping came from outside the door. In crashed
Wolf with a 2 liter drink in his left hand. His dark circles and
blood shot eyes were frightening to Wolfy whom quickly brought up the
gun. She was shaking while putting her finger on the trigger. Regret
and fear rushing through her veins she gasped up some air to finally
speak from her silent night alone.
"Get away from me or I'll
shoot!" she cried getting up quickly.
Wolf almost tripped at
the sight of the gun and his possible death.
"Stop, I only want
to talk to you." he replied walking slowly over to her.
Wolf
took the gun out of her hands put it down on the table. He turned her
around and put his hands on her shoulders. He looked down and pinched
his lip. He paused for a bit and finally decided to speak.
"I've
been thinking last night and I… I am ready to be a father…" he
smiled and released his hands.
Wolfy, on the other hand, was
thought struck. She didn't know what to say so she simply reached
out and hugged him tightly. Wolf closed his eyes and hugged her
back.
"I'm sorry," commented Wolfy silently.
"You
shouldn't apologize. I was the one who hurt you…" Wolf replied
starting to rock her back and forth.
--
Weeks became months since the
incident of that night and Wolfy was rushing around the house. The
pregnancy hormones were finally kicking in for she was having various
mood swings. She held a pen and notepad in her hand where she wrote
down everything she needed for the baby. For all Wolfy knew she could
be having triplets or twins.
"Maybe you should take a break."
Wolf noted coming from the other room and sitting down on the couch
with a cup of coffee.
"I can't. We have lots of work to do.
We need to think of a name, remake the guest room into a nursery, and
I have to go to the doctors for a check up…"
As soon as she
mentioned check up she paused in her tracks and dropped the objects
in her hand.
"Oh no! I have that doctor's appointment today!"
she cried putting her head in the palm of her hands.
"Oh yeah…
What was it for again?" he said willingly sipping his drink.
Wolfy became enraged as she stormed in front of Wolf and
tapped her foot.
"So you're telling me you forgot?" she said
sternly pinching her face.
"You never told me!" Wolf pointed
out. "Besides… You forgot until the last minute."
"Hmph..."
Wolfy replied putting her head up and walking to get her keys.
She threw them at Wolf's head and
he fell over a little.
"Excuse me…" he scowled.
Wolfy
shook her head and grabbed her purse and opened the door to the
complex hallway.
"We have to come or we'll be late!"
Wolf
slowly got up and followed in her tracks.
"Mood swings…" he
mumbled under his breath passing Wolfy.
