Part 9:
2.30 am
It was all dark and quiet in the apartment, but Abby couldn't sleep. Truth be told she still felt kinda bad about the whole Jake-thing. Actually that was not the only way she felt bad. Her stomach was hurting and she felt pretty nauseous… very nauseous actually.
Suddenly she felt the horrible taste of puke filling her mouth. She rushed out of bed as fast and quiet as she could trying not to wake Carter up.
3.15 am
Abby sat on the cold and uncomfortable bathroom floor holding onto the toilet and calculating.
'When was my last period,' she thought. 'Come on, Abby… think… maybe the 16th in the last month? Oh, that will make it 1½ month ago, and I'm vomiting.' This just couldn't be right. She couldn't be pregnant, could she?
6.30 am
Abby woke up to the sound of the alarm. She was so tired, and she had this disgusting feeling all over her body that you always have, even though she had showered before going back to bed.
4.30 pm
Abby was sitting on the couch paralysed and stared at the little white piece of paper with the clear blue end… she was pregnant! She couldn't believe it, but she was really happy about it, to tell the truth. For the first time in her whole life she could imagine herself having a family, and she trusted Carter to support her, even if the child should be bi-polar.
