Chapter 2: The Reaction

"I think I should leave you to alone." said Angela, leaving the room. "What's this big news that you're keeping from me" "I afraid to tell you." Cory sat down and put his arm around Topanga. "We've been married for almost a year now. You know you can tell me anything." "Well, I was having stomach pains, so I bought this home pregnancy test. It came out positive. Cory, I'm pregnant." Cory didn't answer, he just sat there. "Cory?" "I can't believe it, I'm going to be a daddy." He tried to stand up put he fainted. "I knew he do this." Topanga called Shawn over to get Cory up. "Cory, wake up, you passed out." "Shawnzy?" "Yeszy." "I just had a horrible dream." Topanga walked over to Cory "Cory, that wasn't a dream" Cory went back to that dazed look again. "What's not a dream, and why'd Cory past out?" "Shawn, I'm pregnant." Shawn got a smile on his face. "Oh Cory, you devil. Congratulations man." "Thanks, I guess." Shawn knew Cory wasn't very happy. "Well, my work here is done. See you in class on Monday. Cory got up and sat on their torn-up couch. "I'm not ready." Topanga sat next to Cory and put her head on his shoulders. "We're both not ready Cory, but this is what's happening and we have to deal with it. "Well, I guess with the new baby, we'll have to get a real house." "But Cory, we can barley afford this apartment. There is no way we can afford an house." "I'll just have to get a better job than I have now. I'll get two better jobs actually." "Cory, you don't have to." Cory put his hand over Topanga's mouth. "I would do anything for you and the children." Topanga looked like she was going to cry. "I love you so much." "I love you to, Topanga."
