Lela

I was glad to be back home. Mr. Sands moved my bed downstairs to my new room. It overlooks the garden, and leads to the backyard. Dr. Drake comes by to see me often. I am ready to go back to school, but Jerrica won't let me. Jerrica has enrolled me in home school until I have the baby. I don't leave the house very much. Jerrica had gotten me a TV-DVD player.

I was lying on my bed doing homework when Jerrica came in.

"I got you a present." Jerrica said.

"You have already done so much for me." I said opening her present.

I couldn't believe it, it was a pink Nintendo DS Light and several games. Jerrica has never let us have any video games before. "You have better things to do with your time, then sit and play video games all day.

"What's this?" I asked.

"You have to spend the next 7 months in bed, because of the infection. I want to make it as easy on you as possible." Jerrica said.

Something was happening, I felt very weird inside. I was uncomfortable, but not much pain. I knew I had to tell Jerrica.

"Jerrica, I don't feel very well. I know something is wrong." I said.

Jerrica rushed me to the hospital. Dr. Drake met us there. I was rushed into test and then Dr. Drake admitted me. Jerrica sat next to me in my room.

"I brought you something." Jerrica said holding up the bag.

Dr. Drake came in, "I have a good news and bad news for you." She said.

"Let's have the good news first." Jerrica said.

"Good news is we have the infection under control. Bad news is we have to keep Lela here for a minimum of two weeks, while I treat the infection." Dr. Drake said.

I just looked up at her, I wanted to cry.

"Would you like to the baby?" Dr. Drake asked.

I nodded. A few minutes later, I was looking at my baby on the screen. It was an unbelievable sight. My baby inside my stomach was being reflected on the screen. Even though I got pregnant in the worst way possible, the idea of losing the baby is killing me. Jerrica stayed with me until visitors hours were over. I played my new game after she left.
