Sam waited in the lobby of the General Hospital fiddling with her fingers. Sitting next to her was Lucky who also sat lost in a long train of thought. Sam wanted to let all the tears she had in her body free out of her eyes at that moment but knew that she couldn't. She didn't want to get the abortion. Some part of her didn't want to take this child out of her. Slowly tears started to spill from her eyes.
Lucky looked over to Sam. "You okay?" he asked as he saw tears come out of her soft eyes. He grabbed her tiny hand in his own but found that she pulled her own away as she stood up from the chair and headed to the bathroom.
Sam splashed cold water on her face and tried to wipe away the tears that had leaked from her eyes. She felt so embarrassed. Bursting into tears in the middle of the General Hospital. Suddenly a sharp knock sounded on the other side of the door. "Lucky just leave me alone. I don't want to talk right now" Sam said.
"Miss?" said a muffled voice on the other side of the door. "Miss are you alright?"
Sam rolled her eyes. "Yes I'm fine. Just give me a minute" she said. Taking a paper towel she wiped away the tears that stained her cheeks and then opened the door. On the other side stood a pretty woman with brown hair going down her shoulders. She looked at Sam with compassion as she saw her come out of the bathroom.
"Are you okay?" the woman asked Sam. Sam couldn't help it. More tears spilled from her eyes.
"I'm sorry. I just don't know what's wrong" Sam told the woman.
"It's alright" said the nurse. "Let's just talk"
She lead Sam over to a set of chairs and sat down in one gesturing for Sam to sit down in the other. "My name is Emily" the woman said.
"Sam Mccall" Sam told Emily.
"So how far along in the pregnancy are you?" Emily asked.
Sam sniffled. "Three and a half weeks" she said. "I mean I don't get why I care about this baby all of the sudden. I mean I'm not the motherly type and I don't want a child but I don't want an abortion either"
Emily patted her back. "It's alright. It's normal. Maybe you just haven't come to a decision yet" Emily told her.
"Maybe" Sam said sniffling.
"So what does the father think about this? You know Lucky" Emily said.
"Well the father doesn't even know" Sam said immediately regretting what she told Emily.
"I thought Lucky was the father" Emily said looking at Sam with suspicious eyes.
Sam brought her hand to her head and rubbed her forehead. "Well his not" Sam said.
Emily's mouth dropped. "I thought for sure he- . . . well then who is?" Emily asked.
"I don't know" Sam said. "It's a long story and if the father finds out well... I just rather him not find out"
"Really Sam I wouldn't tell anyone including the father" Emily said.
"Well I mean his a mob enforcer . . . but I mean I'm not better . . . well this is confidential right?" Sam asked. Emily nodded her head. "Jason Morgan."
Emily felt her heart tighten. Her brother was the father. "Listen Sam maybe you should think about telling him. You might be suprised by how he reacts." Emily told her.
"I don't know" Sam said. "But I know I'm not ready to get an abortion"
Just then Lucky walked over seeing Emily and Sam. "You okay?" he asked Sam.
"Yeah" Sam said. "Let's just get out of here"
