Six weeks later, Katie finally told me why she was acting like she was. Her little sister, whom she cared about deeply, had died just before she left for college. She had lost her life to leukemia. Katie and I both had our reasons to cry. I was pregnant and she lost her sister. Katie trusted me. But I couldn't tell her I was having a baby just yet. I still had three months to go. My baby was getting really big now. I couldn't hide it much longer. But I can hold out until February.

I went back to the doctor today. When she came back with my results, she clearly said, "Congratulations! You're having twins!"

"Twins?!" I repeated

"Uh huh," she nodded, smiling, "But you don't look too happy about it. Most moms would love to have twins."

"I know. But how am going to take care of two babies when I can hardly care for one?"

"You could put one in foster care until you're out of college."

"Well, there's that. But I'll see when the time comes."

"That sounds good. Thanks for coming in."

"No problem," I said I left her office

I walked out of the building, clutching my pregnant belly. "I can't believe I'm having twins!" I quietly said to myself

I called Danny that night.

"Hello?" the voice on the other side of the line said

"Danny? It's Sam."

"Oh! Hey, Sam. What's up?"

"I decided that I'm coming down to Florida for winter break. Is that alright?"

"Fine by me. How's your work coming along?"

"Average," I replied, "You?"

"It's hard, but I managed to get through it."

"That's good," I laughed

"Yeah. I hate to leave now but I just got assigned a big project yesterday and I have to go down to the lab and help with it."

"Alright. I guess I'll see you soon."

"Yeah. Bye Sam."

"Bye Danny," I said, with a grin

We both hung up. I let out a big sigh and fell back on my bed.

"You okay?" Katie said as she walked in, throwing her bag down on her bed

"Uh huh," I nodded slightly

"Was that Dan?" she asked, pulling out her art books and setting them down on the desk

"Yup."

"What'd he have to say?" She then took out her paints and went over to the desk. She then started to paint something.

"I called him."

"Ah."

"So... What're you painting?"

"Dunno."

"Cool."

"Yup."

I grabbed my coat and decided to take a walk around campus. There was so much going on. It's weird. I've been here for three months and didn't know that there was that much stuff going on. Anyway, I took my midterms yesterday so I have the whole day to myself. I decided to hang out in the lounge and talk with my friends. Surprisingly, no one was really there today. Well, Jules and Stacy are both studying for their midterms. Rachel, Joaquin and Katie were in the art room, painting. Tyler and Megan were both off-campus somewhere. And I'm here alone. Great. What a great way to spend the day.

Soon, November passed and December arrived. I bought my ticket to Florida a week ago. I'm gonna be there from the week before Christmas until the weekend after New Year's. I've missed Danny so much. I told myself that I'm going to tell him that I was pregnant. With his baby. Boy, will he be surprised.
