Little
things change so much Part 19:
Washed
out
--------------------
A
week later:
It was only 4 pm and Prue fell already
exhausted onto her bed. Penny still hadn't cared for anything.
Still, Prue was the one handling everything. Prue hurried from one
appointment to the next. To the doctors for the check up Andy asked
Prue for, bring the girls here and there, begging Penny to forgive
her, meeting with Andy in the supermarket, since she couldn't face
Julia and Richard before they had told them and she didn't want
Andy at the manor at the moment, studying and preparing her exams,
school, household, cry herself to sleep because she didn't know
what to do anymore with Grams and her whole situation and last but
not least wake at like 3 am to throw up and have whole day after, the
so called morning sickness which actually lasted the whole day. She
didn't even have anything to eat since the last noon... over a day
now. She didn't really talk to her sisters or Andy, since she
didn't have the time to. If she would have talked to them, at least
they would have made Prue sit down and rest a little for a while or
get her to eat. Make her take a break. But it was impossible. She
didn't have the time for anything like that. Short: Prue was
completely washed out, a human wreck.
Prue just closed her eyes,
when she heard the phone. Not even that Grams took anymore. Prue
sighted, got up and dragged herself downstairs, just to find Piper at
the phone. She smiled a bit at least her sisters helped the best they
could. At least they were there for her.
"No Andy, I can't
bring Prue to the phone, she just lay down. I don't wanna wake
her"
Prue smiled a little
"It's okay sweetie, up already
anyway, hand me over"
Piper looked worried up, her sister didn't
look too good
"Umm... Andy, Prue heard the phone... I hand you
over... yeah... bye"
"Thanks"
Prue whispered. Piper was
such an angel
"Hey honey"
Prue said in a weak, exhausted
voice
"Hey beautiful. How are you feeling?"
"Don't
ask"
"Want me to come over?"
"No.... Andy... I have to
study, I didn't get do anything yet. I still have to help Phoebe
with some essay and then help Piper cook..."
"I come around.
You need at least a bit of help and we can learn together."
Andy
said. He was worried. Prue didn't look good in school and he wanted
to make sure she ate something, since she promised him to eat
something as soon as she came home. But before that, always came
Prue's sisters. He knew how stressed out Prue was and also noticed
her exhausted voice
"I have Piper and Phoebe to help me"
"They
can't do a lot of things I could help you with. And if I'm there,
you have another helper."
"No... Andy... Grams..."
"What's
with her? She can shut up! I at least care for you and our baby.
Completely in contrast to her. She doesn't care for anything
anymore! Let at least me help you out!"
Prue sighted. Andy was
right. She needed help. But she didn't want Andy at the manor while
Grams and her were still fighting. She didn't want to hear them
fighting over and over again. Andy more or less hated Penny since
they told her. She was against their baby. She was acting mean
towards Prue. And he somewhat had the feeling, she disliked him for
getting Prue pregnant as well. So wherever and whenever Penny and
Andy met, they started to fight. Argue. Yell. Prue was the one, then
having to try to calm Andy down. So the fight stopped and wasn't
becoming too bad.
"I'm there in 5"
Andy said and before
Prue could say something, he hung up.
"Mom! I'm at the manor!
I'm home for dinner!!"
Andy yelled, then grabbed his car keys
and hurried out of the house and to his car. Everything that counted
was Prue and that she and the baby were alright.
