Chapter 9: Baby Blues

She shakes the little girl lightly trying to wake her up. Once the she has her eyes open she shoots up.

"Are we finally going to see daddy today. I really miss him!"

She laughs at the little girl.

"Yes, we're going to see daddy today. But get dress in proper clothes. You don't daddy to see you in ripped up jeans?"

The little girl looks down at her clothes and runs up stairs. She laughs but her smile quickly fades away and she collapses on the couch. These memories haunted her more than she ever would've imagined.

Back to the Past:

Tommy was at the house waiting for Jude's call from the clinic to make sure everything was ok with her. When the phone rang he got up from the sofa and answered it quickly.

Tommy: Hello? Jude?

Sadie: Tommy, its Sadie.

Tommy: Sadie? Hey, how's Jude? Is everything ok?

Sadie: Um, well, she's healthy. Jake didn't do…too much damage.

Tommy: What do you mean he didn't do too much?

Sadie: Tommy, Jude's pregnant.

Tommy: What? That asshole got her pregnant!

Sadie: Well, now hold on, calm down. It might not be his. It might be yours.

Tommy: How do you…

Sadie: Oh yea…she told me. We're sisters what do you expect? But did you use protection?

Tommy: Uh, no. We kinda weren't thinking about that.

Sadie: Okay, so it…

Jude: Sadie!

Sadie: Coming Jude.

Tommy: Is that Jude? Let me talk to her.

Sadie: Okay, hold on.

Sadie walked back into the room and the doctor was there. She gave Jude the phone and went over to talk to the doctor.

Jude: Hello?

Tommy: Hey babe.

Jude: Tommy! Oh, my god. Did you hear?

Tommy: Yea, do they know who it is?

Jude: They did some tests and now I know why I was all of a sudden getting a little fat. I'm 4 months pregnant.

Tommy: What a minute that means…

Jude: It means it's yours. The baby is yours.

Tommy: Oh, my god. I…uh…wow…I…

Jude: Yea, that's what I said. I don't know what I'm going to do Tommy. My dad is coming back next month and he's bound to notice that I'm not too skinny anymore.

Tommy: But how come you didn't get any of the symptoms?

Jude: The doctor said that it was normal. Many other girls never had any of the symptoms. But there's some bad news about the baby.

Tommy: What?

Jude: They said that since I was raped it might've damaged the baby. They don't know yet. They asked me if I wanted an ultrasound but I want you here with me. They can take me in Saturday. You're off right?

Tommy: No, and you're not either.

Jude: Well, honey, it's the only time they have open at this point.

Tommy: That's fine, I'll talk to D. I'll make up an excuse.

Jude: Alright. I'll come over a little later. Is that ok?

Tommy: That's fine. See you then. Love you.

Jude: I love you too. Bye.

The drive to Tommy's house was awkward. Sadie kept glancing over to Jude then back to the road over and over again. Jude was getting fed up with it.

Jude: Sadie, would you stop? You're driving me insane.

Sadie: I'm sorry, it's just that, I can't believe you're…pregnant. With Tommy's baby nonetheless. I guess it just hasn't sunk in all the way.

Jude: Same here.

Sadie: What are we going to tell dad?

Jude: That's not what I'm exactly afraid of right now. What if something's wrong with the baby?

Sadie: Are you going to have it even if there's nothing wrong with it?

Jude: I don't know, I'm only 17 Sadie.

Sadie: 18 in a month when dad comes back.

Jude: Oh, my god. I almost forgot my birthday was next month. Everything has been swirling in my head I totally forgot.

Sadie: Yea, well, anyways, it's your decision. But if I were in your shoes I wouldn't want to get an abortion.

Jude: …

Sadie: We're here.

Jude: Thanks. I'll call you if I won't come home.

Sadie: Okay, tell Tommy I said hi.

Jude: Will do.

Jude watched Sadie as she drove off. She went to the front door and rang the door bell. After a few seconds the door swung open and Tommy led her inside. They both went to the kitchen and sat on the stools near the counter. Jude looked straight forward while Tommy was waiting for her to talk.

Jude: So, I was thinking about this baby. If there's nothing wrong with it, I have a choice of keeping it…or having an abortion.

Tommy: An abortion?

Jude: Yea.

Jude still looked straight ahead at the window that showed the backyard. Tommy stared at her and then looked out the same window.

Tommy: Well, it's up to you. What do you want?

Jude: I want to be happy. I want to be with you, and I want to make the right choice. I just don't know what that is yet.

Tommy: Do you want my advice and opinion?

Tommy looked at her now. She turned her head and looked at him with a pleading look. She was waiting for him to say that.

Jude: Yes, I could really use your help right now Tommy.

Tommy: I love you, more than anything. I think that, we should keep this baby. I mean it is one of God's precious miracles right?

Jude: Um, not to ruin this precious moment, but what is with you and this "God" thing?

Jude put air quotes above her head.

Tommy: You don't believe?

Jude: Not really.

Tommy: Maybe you should. How about I take you to church this Sunday?

Jude: You go to church?

Tommy: Why do you think I have Sundays off?

Jude: Okay, why are we talking about this? We're suppose to be talking about the 5 pound human life that I'm about to have. Now, do you want to keep it or not?

Tommy: It's not really up to me Jude. I would love to have a baby, especially with you. But you're only 17, and I don't want you to deal with all that at such a young age. I guess it's up to you. Do you want to keep the baby?

Jude: Yea, I think I do. I really do.

Tommy: Then we'll keep it. You can handle it. You'll be the best mother there is.

Jude: Thanks Tommy.

Tommy: No problem babe.

Exactly a month later Jude was starting to show a lot. There was nothing wrong with the baby, and it was perfectly healthy. The doctors asked if they wanted to know if it was a boy or a girl but Jude refused. She wanted it to be a surprise. It was 2 days until her 18th birthday. Normally Jude would be ecstatic. She'll be legal, and Tommy and Jude wouldn't have to hide their relationship anymore. But she wasn't thinking about that. She was thinking about her father's return. He was suppose to show up during her party and she's was dreading it. Jude was sitting on the loveseat in Tommy's apartment when Sadie came in.

Sadie: Hey.

Jude: Hey.

Sadie: Where's Tommy?

Jude: In the bathroom…taking a shower.

Sadie: Oh, I just thought I'd stop by and ask how you were doing. You haven't been home in about two weeks.

Jude: Yea, sorry about that Sadie. I've been steaming with all this overtime at the studio.

Sadie: I thought you were going to talk to Darius about giving you some time off?

Jude: No, that was Tommy's idea. I still wanted to sing. I'm not dying, I'm pregnant. Oh, god, I'm pregnant.

Sadie: So what are you going to tell Dad?

Jude: How am I suppose to tell him?

Sadie: Maybe you should ease into it, ya know.

Jude: What like 'Hey dad, how you doing? Hope you had a great trip and by the way I'm pregnant.'?

Sadie chuckled a little bit.

Jude: Sades, this isn't funny. I don't know what I'm going to do.

Sadie: Listen, you have 2 more days to think about this ok? Just calm down and don't think about it.

Tommy came out of the shower while the two Harrison sisters when in the living room. He put on his jeans and then he started to feel sick. He felt so weak, and his knees gave out. He hit the floor with a big 'thump'. The girls heard this and ran into the room. They saw him laying on the floor.

Sadie: Oh my god.

Jude: Oh no!

Jude ran to him.

Jude: Baby? Baby, wake up. C'mon, wake up. Tommy?

Sadie: I'll call the ambulance.

Sadie picked up the phone and dialed 911. About 25 minutes later the ambulance came and knocked on the door. Sadie went to let them in while Jude was still trying to wake up Tommy.

Paramedic 1: What's wrong with him?

Jude: I don't know. We just found him like this. I think he fainted and now he won't wake up.

The paramedic put his two fingers on Tommy's neck to check if he had a pulse.

Paramedic 1: He's alive.

Paramedic 2: We'll need to take him down to the hospital…fast.

Sadie: Can we ride in the ambulance with you?

The paramedics looked at each other as the others put Tommy on one of those beds and into the ambulance. They nodded their head at Sadie and Jude and they both ran into the ambulance. All the way to the hospital Jude held Tommy's hand and Sadie was trying to hold back tears. Once they reached to the hospital they told Sadie and Jude to wait outside in the lobby. About an hour passed and still no news came. Jude started to pace back and forth and Sadie eyed her carefully.

Jude: What do you think could be taking so long?

She started to bite her nails.

Sadie: I'm sure his fine, they're just running some tests on him or something.

Jude: But he has Leukemia. What if it's something really serious due to that?

Sadie: Okay, Jude.

Sadie grabbed her hand to make her stop pacing.

Sadie: You're going to burn a hole in the carpet. Calm down; don't assume anything until we know all the facts. I mean, it could be nothing.

Jude took a deep sigh as Sadie patted her back. They stayed waiting for another 30 minutes and then the doctor came out. Jude and Sadie stood up quickly.

Dr. Luther: Jude and Sadie Harrison?

Jude: Yes.

Dr. Luther: I'm Dr. Luther.

Jude: What's wrong with him doctor?

Dr. Luther: It seems it was the cancer. I'm sorry to say but…
