Chapter 2
The Story
Everyone settled in their seats to listen to Sara's story. Sara sat down next to Nick who was holding Isabella in his arms.
"Ok guys before I start the story I need to tell you that I do not want you to treat me any differently."
Everyone just nodded their head yes.
"I was getting ready to go out, I was going to meet up with you guys at a club, I was getting in to my car when a guy grabbed me from behind. He took me to the alley that is next to my apartment building and he raped me. I drove to Summerlin Hospital so no one will recognize me. I didn't want to take the morning after pill because if I did end up pregnant it was still my baby and I made it no matter how it was conceived. I found out that I was pregnant a month later."
Everyone just looked at her in amazement.
"Bella was my miracle she gave me peace in my life and I realized how much I can love someone. I am always smiling and I have come to terms with my past and that some things that happened were not under my power and were not my fault and I should not live my life like that."
No one thought that would ever come out of Sara Sidle's mouth.
Nick was the first one to speak.
"Sara I am so proud of you for going through that by yourself, I just wish that I could have been there with you and helped you. I always knew that you were a strong person, but just hearing this story just makes me realize just how strong you are and I could tell as soon as you walked in to this room that you had changed. You are glowing, you are so much happier and you make a wonderful mother."
By this time Sara had tears in her eyes, she scooted closer to Nick and she kissed him on the cheek and gave him a hug but being careful of the baby that had fallen asleep in his arms.
"Thanks Nick you do not know how much that means to me."
The rest of the team got up and gave her words of wisdom and how proud they are of her and gave her hugs and kisses as well. Then they all had a turn to hold the baby and coo over her.
