Eppy #9  Will you trust me again?

Kevin: *in a shocked voice*  Pregnant and Miscarriage?

*Lucy looks at the ground

*Doctor quietly exits the room

Kevin: *in a weird voice* Is this true?

Lucy: *in determined soft voice* Yes.

Kevin: *in shocked and angry voice* I can't believe this!  I didn't know this because why?  You don't trust me?

Lucy: *memories from previous two months floods back* *in semi angry voice* Kevin, you were not exactly there for me.  We got in a fight, so yes I didn't exactly trust you. 

Kevin: *throws his arm up* I can't believe this!

Lucy: *in nonchalant voice*You don't need to believe in me.  Its gone. 

Kevin: *in shocked voice* Did you even want that baby?

Lucy: *in a sad motherly voice as she remembers the day she lost her baby* No, not at first but when I got the news that I lost my baby I was sad.  I had changed my mind but it was too late.  It was going to be a sweet baby girl but it wasn't meant to be.  My heart was broken again the day I lost my baby girl.

Kevin: in frustrated voice* Grr.

*Kevin stalks out

Lucy: *looks at door with sad but angry eyes*  You are getting very good at that.

Lucy: *looks at her children* Come on kids.

Mark: Are we going home? 

Lucy: *collecting her purse* Yes because you and Mercy need some sleep.  And I don't know where you father went.

*Back at home

*Twins are in bed

*Lucy is on the phone, three-way conversation

Lucy: I need help.  I don't know what to do.

Annie: You should have told Kevin earlier.

Mary: But Kevin shouldn't have left.

Annie: Lucy and children need all support.  He picked the wrong timing to leave and it isn't entirely his fault that he left.

Lucy: *in desperate voice* I don't want to lose him

Annie: Then why did you get the separation paper?

Lucy: I don't know.  And the worst part is when I got home I saw the papers signed by Kevin.

Mary: Oh no!  Wait…he was home but he isn't there?

Lucy: I know.  Now all I need to do is sign it.  And yes he was here but I don't know where he is now. 

Annie: Please don't sign and turn in those papers.  Both of you are not thinking clear.

Lucy: But he didn't want me to leave before so why now?

Mary: *in funny voice*Probably under all the stress.

Lucy: *in exasperating voice* MARY!

Annie: *in thoughtful and considering voice* Here is another important question.

Lucy: What?

Annie: If Kevin gives you a second chance, will you trust him?

Lucy: *in a firm voice without any hesitation* Yes!

Mary: *in gentle voice* You have always trusted Kevin just sometimes it is weak especially lately.

Annie: You are right, Mary.  Lucy, you need to sit down and have a heart to heart talk with Kevin.  I think both of you and especially you Lucy have some doubts and insecurities.  You both want through so much the past six years.  Talk to him soon and figure out why you the doubts and insecurities.  You owe it to yourself and kids.  Think of Lorena.

Lucy: *in quiet voice* You make sense Mom. 

Annie: I love you Lucy.  Your dad and I are always here for you and your family.  *after a pause* I need to go.  Give my grandkids especially Lorena hugs and kisses from Grandma

Mary: And Auntie Mary.

Lucy: Ok.  Bye. Love you guys. And thank you so much Mom and Mary for everything.

*Lucy hangs up the phone and cries for the umpteenth time.

*One week later

*Lorena is still on coma

*Kevin didn't come back home but visits Lorena everyday

*Lucy is deciding to sign the paper or not

*Kevin and Lucy have yet to talk

*Thanksgiving come by and nobody in Kinkirks family celebrated

*Lorena was still in coma

*Kevin still hadn't come home but visits Lorena everyday

*Lucy still hadn't signed the separation papers

*Kevin and Lucy still haven't talked

*One week before Christmas*

Mercy:  *in hopeful voice*Is Daddy and Lorena coming home for Christmas?

Mark: *in innocent voice* With presents?

Lucy: *looks tired and sad* I don't know.

Mercy: Is going to be sad Christmas?

Mark: Santa don't like sad Christmas.

Lucy: *in tired and I-want-to pull-my-hair-out voice* Oh I wish I knew what was happening next.

Twins: Grandma and Grandpa for Christmas?

Lucy: *nodding her head* They might because they want to see Lorena and you guys.

Twins: Yay!!!

Mercy: Maybe happy Christmas?

Lucy: I hope so.  *closes her eyes and sighs* I hope so

*Mercy and Mark hugs Lucy

Lucy: *trying not to cry* I love you guys

Twins: We love you Mommy!

Lucy: What do you want for Christmas?

Mercy: *in a thoughtful voice* Lorena

Mark: *also in thoughtful voice* Daddy

Mercy: What about you Mommy?

Lucy: *gently smiling and letting the tear fall* I want the same thing.  I want a happy Christmas with my family.  *sighs a depressing sigh* Well…lets finish decorating the tree

*Christmas day

*phone rings

Lucy: Hello?

Doctor: *in an urgent voice* Please come to the hospital right away!

Up next: What happened that the doctor wants Lucy to come right away?  Is Lorena ok?  Will Lucy ever sign the separation paper?  Will Lorena wake up?  Will the family be together for Christmas?  Next one is Christmas at Kinkirk's home.
