Chapter Four
The next morning Jay woke early. He was leaning against Trudy who breathed easily. He got up to dress. The memory of last night lay heavy on his mind. He felt terrible, guilty, confused. He looked down at Trudy who was stirring. "Good Morning."
"Morning." She yawned.
"Do you think you could walk around today? You know get your strength up.
Trudy's eyes widened. "I could try."
"Good, I have to go." With that Jay left the room. Trudy stared at the doorway wide eyed. What had brought on this sudden change?
Siria grabbed her coat that was black with pink strips down the sleeves. She had decided she wanted to go by the loft to get new things for her room. As she walked down the stairs Amber called after her. "Siria, where are you going?" Normally Amber would not have cared but she was worried.
"Um...no where...just out." Siria looked wildly at Amber and Baby Bray.
"Do you want something to eat?" Amber held a bowl out to Siria. Siria looked warily at the bowl. She was starved, but she didn't want to throw up again. She felt her stomach grumble and giving in she took the bowl and sat down. "Do you remember school, Siria?"
"Yeah, when I actually managed to attend class."
"Well did you ever make it to sex education?"
Siria stopped. She should have known this was a trap. "No Amber, I didn't. The graphics made me queasy."
"Oh" Amber smiled.
"What is it Amber?"
"Well Jack told me you've been throwing up in the mornings."
Siria pushed the bowl away. "He's extremely nosy, and you're not very subtle so I'm going to ask you again...what is it?"
Amber sighed. "Siria are you late."
"A little, but I don't see how that could mean anything. It could be just stress."
"Or it could be something else."
"You don't seriously think?"
"Yes I think you're pregnant." Amber's voice remained calm as she started feeding Bray.
Siria stood. "What there is no way I could be pregnant."
"There's always a way Siria."
"Amber you're sick. I am not pregnant."
"Fine I could be wrong, but then again..." Siria looked at Baby Bray who was trying to stick his fingers in to his food. Siria rushed out of the Mall.
