Chapter Ten
"I got news for you"
It's been three and a half months since Sora and Kairi found out the news. And so far things are going pretty well. Living life like usual. Doing random things together. Hangin out with school friends. Sora being as over protective as ever. Theres less than a month til shool starts.In fact nly about 15 days. For some reason, they extended the year this year. School was beginning in late september.Anyways, Kairi is showing a little. Now it looks like she gained some weight. Not too many people know that she's pregnant yet. God what are people gonna say when she shows up at school looking fatter than she had three and a half months ago. Riku has still failed in every attempt to go out with Kat. She's refused all the time. Namine and Roxas are together but Roxas is still his shy little virgin self. Namine is a little more outgoing. She's always kinda putting Roxas down but he knows she doesnt really mean any of it. Sora and Kairi have both gotten jobs. Sora works full time (for now) at Vans. Kairi works full time (for now) at Target.(you may be thinking i have a fedish with target, if u have read ch 5 of my other fic! truth is I love target!!) On this day, Kairi is working the late shift. Its around 7:30 and she's doing stock. She works with several people she knows from school. People can be pretty rude so her boss didnt put her in cashier due to Kairi's raging horomonal problem. Her boss figured it was better to have a satisfied costomer rather than one that has been cut up into little tiny peices by Kairi. Also Kairi is supposed to sit every half hour for at least 5 minutes to relieve stress. Her boss suggested it.
'Awwwmann I just want my shift to be over' she said as she threw the Pepto Bismol onto a shelf without really looking where she put it. She hated working so much but she asked for the hours so she took it. She knew she had to work full time as much as possible so her and Sora could afford things for when the baby comes. She looked down at the little forming bump on her mid section. She rubbed it gently and sighed. She stopped with the Pepto and moved onto tylenol. 'Shit! the tylenol reminded me that I have a headache...fantastic' she thought moving her hand to message her forehead. Sora wont be home til 10 tonight.
"Rough day?" a voice asked from right behind her. Without even looking to see who it was she replied with a rude answer.
"What would you know?" She turned to see who it was.
Herman.
She smiled and hugged him apoligeticly. He laughed.
"I know more than you think, Kairi"He said.
"Sorry for snapping Herman. Didn't mean to. This thing-" she guestured to her stomach "Is not letting me act myself"
He held up a hand to stop her. "Yeah I get it. Hey you almost done here?" He asked curiously
She patted her pockets for her cell phone and read the time. 7:36. She nodded, hastily shoving her phone back into her pocket.
"I'm off at 8, why?"
"Lemme buy you somthin to eat." He offered. "Your hungry"
She shook her head. "No I already ate alot earlier"
This time he shook his head. "Kairi, lying doesnt work on me too well. The last thing you ate was a bowl of cereal at noon."
Shit she had forgotten about Herman and his predictions. (A/N: SORRY, MY FRIEND HERMAN JUST SEEMS THE TYPE TO BE PSYCHIC-Y..)
Her jaw dropped. She sighed and gave in. "Fine Herman."
He smiled. "K well I gotta do some shopping. Meet me at the front of the store when you get off ok?"
She nodded and returned to her boring job of stocking useless weight products. Slim Fast wont shed off baby fat, so what's the use of it to Kairi? Her pocket suddenly vibrated. She took out her phone and read the text that had been sent. She smiled.
sorry you have to work late Kai!
i hate being the only one on the floor here.
some woman was just screaming at me. anyways we are slow now so i thought I'd text you.
i love u.
She grinned widely and rocked back and forth on the spot where she stood. She began to text back when someone tapped her shoulder. She turned to find her coworker, Manda. Manda was a short girl. She had short brown hair that was always straightened. She had brown eyes and always wore alot of eyeshadow, and eyeliner. Mostly she wore dark colors but since she worked at Target, she had to wear a red shirt. She always wore a black one underneath. Manda was a cool person. Kairi never thought much of her bad habits, she had smoked, drinked and smoked weed. As far as Kairi knew, she was through with all that but still, she was a cool person. Her boyfriend Anthony came to visit her alot, distracting Manda from her job. (A/N: HEY TOO BAD IF YOU DONT LIKE EMO KIDS. MANDA IS MY BEST FRIEND IN REAL LIFE. BACK OFF EMO HATERS!! MANDA KICKS ASS!! lol sry anyways)
Manda hung on Kairi's shoulder, she had noticed the smile. She grabbed Kairi's phone and read the screen. Kairi tried to get it back. It shouldnt have been hard considering Manda was only 4'11".(I tease manda about her height ALL THE TIME) Manda read the text then gave a aww as she gave the phone back to Kairi.
"Oh god that was soo cheesy" She started doing an imitation of Sora "Dear Kairi, I love you ever soo much. I have to work floor. Its hell without you." Manda cracked up Kairi frowned but laughed a bit.
"Shut it Manda" She said swatting her on the back of her head. Manda shut up.
"Hey Kai what are you doin tonight?" Manda asked. Kairi smiled and giggled.
"Manda sorry I have a boyfriend." Manda started laughing hysterically.
"No...no you always seem so gloomy. We need to make plans. If you're not too busy." She suggested. Kairi nodded." Hey how bout we go to a movie tomorrow night? Girls night out."
Kairi loved movies. The whole cinematic adventure was amazing. She loved previews.She remembered the last time she saw a movie. That was a crazt trip. It was the day she met Kat. Jeez she hadnt gone to the movies in 3 months?? wow. The thing of it was, now that she was four months pregnant, sitting still in a movie theatre was nearly impossible. Kairi now needed to move around alot and go to the bathroom like ALL the time. Basicly it was impossible for her to enjoy the movie. Kairi shook her head. "I cant sit still. This thing," She pointed to her stomach." Makes me wana move around and go pee alot." Manda giggled at Kairi's choice of words.
Kairi had finished stocking weight loss products and started on the next aisle which was hair. Manda helped her, she couldnt do the top shelf though because of her SHORT STATURE! (told you...o and no offence to other short people) Manda simply handed Kairi the bottles of shampoo and Kairi stocked them.
"So what could we do?" Manda pondered. " Bowling?"
Kairi shook her head again. "Too much stress."
"How bout we just go to my house?" Manda suggested. " I have Guitar Hero II. Ever played?" she added. Kairi shook her head. Manda shrugged " I'll teach you. Hey, have you ever seen 'Pay It Forward'?" Again Kairi shook her head.
Manda got immeresed in her movie details Kairi pretended to be listening. She pulled out her phone and texted Sora back.
aww sry bout the lady Im about done. i have like 2 sec left. im gona eat w herman k? he was here and he offered me dinner.
love you muches.
ily.
(if you didnt no. ILY. means i love you.)
She smiled and put a hand up to stop manda.
"K my shift is done. See ya tomorrow manda!!!" Kair said hurriedly. She turned in her walkie talkie and her nametag. She saw Herman waiting at the front of the store. She hurried to him.
"Kairi where you wana eat?" Herman asked Kairi shrugged.
"We could eat here. I mean they have pretty good stuff" Herman nodded. While walking, he looked over at Kairi.
"Kairi, I didnt want to eat so much. I have somthing to tell you. You can eat I'll just get a soda. Kairi nodded and wondered what her had to tell her. They stepped to the counter and oredered.

SORA ------------------------
Sora hated being the only one on the floor partly because whenever people didnt put shoes away, he had to, and also he was the one who got to spray the insides of shoes after people wore them. Since he texted Kairi, things sped up. Too much to do. He had been working there for about 2 months and he thought it was an okay job. It paid decently, his boss didnt favor him too much. Speak of the devil, his boss was heading over to Sora. His face looked like he was gonna rip someones throat out. He approached Sora. And held out an envelope. Sora looked at it confused.
"Your fired." His boss put simply. Sora raised an eyebrow.
"But sir, my girlfriend is pregnant. I need this job." He pleaded. Boss shook his head.
"Thats what happens when you play with fire." He hissed. Sora was shocked. He walked out of the store. Cursing under his breath.
---------------------
"So I have some information you may or may not want. Up to you"Herman said as Kairi munched on her corndog. She nodded. " It's about your baby."
Suddenly all Kairi's attention was focused on Herman..
"I know if it's a boy or girl" Herman said. Kairi got excited but He held a hand up to stop her. "Before you get excited, I have also been getting OTHER vibes. Wana know?"
Kairi thought for a second. Yes she wanted to know everything that was going to happen with her kid. However what if Herman's info was false? She decided to go with him on it. She nodded.
"Ok first thing. Your having a girl" He said. Her eyes were filled with excitement. "Second is, there will be some problems. I dont know what. Just be warned that the birth wont be as expected."
Kairi's heart sank. That was probably the last thing she wanted to hear right now.' Why? How could this happen to her? What had she done wrong? 'All these questions raced through her mind. She didn't hear Herman say her name. He shook her. She looked up.
"You ok?" He asked. Kairi shrugged. "I dunno. You dont know whats wrong?"
"No. I dont ask for these things to come to me they do. Once I predicted an elderly woman weeping over her dead husband. When I saw her several days after I had to tell her. " He explained. She nodded. "I dont only predict depressing things though. I predicted the Giants were gonna win a big game a couple years back. They did. The best part was, I bet on them to win. I got tons of cash." He started laughing. Kairi smiled a bit.
"Thanks for the info Herman" She felt a vibrate, hastily she took her phone from her pocket. A text from Sora. He was waiting outside. Yeah thats right. He had the car. They needed to get a new one for Kairi. Maybe her mom would help out if they found one for a good enough price. She looked back at Herman and stood. He did also. He looked at her for a second then hugged her. She wasnt expecting it but she hugged him back. He gave her a reassuring smile then Kairi turned to leave.
'Why is Sora here at 8:30?' Kairi wondered making her way to the parking lot where Sora was waiting. He smiled as she entered.
"Got news for you" He said.
"No I got news for you" She corrected, fastening her seatbelt. Sora began to drive away.
