7 It was a bad idea
It has been three months since Zigzag and I first had sex. But lately I don't think it was such a good idea. I love Ziggy, don't get me wrong. But I don't know. I feel like there is something wrong.
As I sleep disturbing dreams creep through my mind. Frozen in a state where I couldn't wake up to save my life. The dream was more of a memory of when my parents were killed. It was like I was watching. I watched myself being raped. I can't take it anymore. When I was granted the will to wake up I had this need to throw up. But when I got back to the tent all eyes were on me. Not looking at anyone I give them a small smile as I head over to my bunk to get my work suit on. Heading to the shovel shed I grabbed my shovel and grabbed my breakfast. D-Tent wasn't far behind me. I was silent on our walk to the digging site.
When lunch came around I was already halfway done. I can't wait to be done. I've puked three times out here. The boys haven't asked questions but I know that they would soon. As I got my lunch Mr. Sir informed me that the warden would like to see me in her house when I was done digging. Nodding my head I go back to my hole. I wondered why she wanted to see me. When I was done I continued my hole. Wanting to be alone I got up and left.
The warden opened the door before I knocked. Slowly I walked in. We walked into the kitchen. She motioned for me to sit down at the kitchen table. My Aunt Lou goes to the fridge and grabs two cokes, then sits down a cross from me. I take mine and open it. It's been a long time since I had a soda. "Macon, I need to know something." She starts. I look at her. "Have you been having sex?" I was a bit surprised that she put it so bluntly. Not knowing what to say. I just nod. I know what she was getting at. My eyes filled with tears. Quickly they spilled out and ran down my cheeks. "That's what I thought. Honey, I'm not mad. I just thought I should ask. You haven't come by the last three months to get supplies." She rubs my hand. "I'll call my doctors; see if I can get you in today. Ok?" I just nod. She gets up and goes over to the phone. "Why don't you go take a shower?" With that I get up and go up stairs.
When I was done I wrapped a towel around my self, the dried and brushed my hair. My aunt was sitting on my bed. "Honey, get dressed in something other then your suit ok. We need to leave now." She gets up and leaves so I could have some privacy. Looking in my closet I decided on a nice red halter dress
and black wedged sandals. Once I was done it was time to leave. We went to the car and left.
The car ride was pretty quiet. That was fine with me. It was a two hour drive to the doctors. We got there around five p.m. Aunt Lou checked me in. It wasn't a long wait before they called me into the office.
It's official, I'm three months pregnant. I've got pictures to prove it. But I wonder what Zigzag was going to think.
