Chapter 5
Abby woke up with a start and looked at the clock, it was 5.45am and john was on nights at county. A sharp pain crossed through the bottom of her stomach.
"is this labour pains?" she thought to herself, she didn't know what to do, her and john always assumed that he would be there with her when the time came, but he wasn't.
"I know" she said out loud "I'll get up, get some juice and watch some TV, maybe its just indigestion or something" as she got up water gushed out from in-between her legs "oh my god" she cried
She grabbed the phone and punched in the ER's number as fast as she could, "ring-ring, ring-ring, ring-ring"
"god hurry up and answer"
"Good afternoon County ER" a male voice came through the phone
"Jerry its Abby…" "hey Abby, how's things?" he cut her off
"not good, get john quickly please, I need him" her voice was pleading with him
"ok hold on" she heard him put her on hold and the usual cheerful music played down the phone, But instead of it relaxing Abby she began to feel more on edge as another pain went through her body. She screamed just as she was put on speaker phone in what sounded like a busy trauma
"Abby what's wrong?" john sounded worried
"john I think I'm in labour" she screamed down the phone
"Christ Abby!" john shouted "someone get chen, kovac anyone, in here NOW! Abby I'm on my way now"
"but john how? I'll just ring 911" she screamed again, this time the pain was more intense
"Abby stay there"
