Chapter 6: Anger
It's been nine months now since Will got pregnant and things have gone from bad to worse over the months. The police still haven't found Will and Susan has quit dating anyone. Taranee, Cornelia, Hay Lin, and Irma, though they are excited for Will have also become bitter toward her. For months since Will first started showing, they kept trying to convince Will to get back with her mother for some experienced help. The more Will refused the less her friends would visit. Matt started working two jobs ever since they graduated from high school and Will couldn't work. It is now a week from Christmas and Matt was finally given two weeks to rest up.
Matt got home late one night after hearing that he would get time off and he sat don on the couch exhausted. Will is in the kitchen making dinner for the two, three if you count the unborn baby. Will brought Matt his dinner and then sat down beside him. Matt looked at the food in front of him and sighed trying to figure out a good way to tell Will what he needed to say. He would have told her sooner except that the last month was such a big problem for the both of them. That was it for him though and decided to just come out and tell her. "Will, I appreciate the food." Will smiled after hearing this and then started eating. "We need to talk Will; I can't let this go unsaid any longer." This frightened Will and she placed the plate on the table in front of her. "Will, you have to go home. I can't take care of you anymore Will as much as I would love to, I can't. You also need to put the baby up for adoption because you can't take care of a child all by yourself and she needs someone that can." Matt looked her straight in her eyes to tell her he is serious.
"I'm not going home Matt and I'm not letting her go to some family that may not even love her. I'm not going to risk it Matt. I can't believe that you would ever suggest that. I can take care of her just fine and with your help" Will was then cut off.
"I don't have the energy Will. We are quickly running out of money and I can't take doing two jobs that isn't doing us much good. I'm tired Will and I can't do it any more and if you won't put her up for adoption then go home and let your mother help you because I'm not helping you anymore Will. I can't help you anymore; I'm too exhausted to." Matt said very irritated.
"I'm not going home Matt and I'm not putting her up for adoption; I can't." Will eyes started to get a little watery.
"You have to do something because I can't anymore. I want to but I can't Will but if you really want to stay here by yourself then fine but I'm leaving and I'm not coming back, not to help you anyway. I am going to quit both jobs tomorrow Will which will leave you with no money and even with it; it leaves you with no money. I'm gone tonight Will and I'm done trying to help." Matt had now reached the point of yelling and he put the plate on the table and walked to the room, quickly packed his bags and left the apartment.
Will was left alone and only after Matt left did she start crying. She held her head in her hands and cried for twenty minutes. Then she felt a sharp pain and she fell onto the couch the rest of the way. She slowly pulled out her cell phone and called Taranee. Taranee answered just to hear Will scream on the other side of the phone. "Will, Will!" Taranee yelled into the phone and then rushed out the door and teletransported over to Will's. When she got in, Will is laying on the couch holding her stomach. Taranee rushed over to her and called 911 to get an ambulance over there. Taranee hung up the phone and called the other girls. The others came into the room and stood by Will and ten minutes later and the ambulance came busting in through the door with Will's mother close behind them. "Get her to the hospital." Taranee said simply.
Will was gently picked up and taken to the ambulance on a stretcher. Susan then got the girls into her car and they drove off to the hospital. When they reached the hospital, Susan and the girls sat down in the waiting room. "Ok girls, why wouldn't you tell me earlier where she was?" Susan said with tears.
"Will didn't want to go live with you. You'll have to talk to her about that. My question is where was Matt and why didn't Will call him?" Taranee asked as Matt came running up to them tiredly. "Matt, what took you?" Taranee asked.
"I just found out ok. I just got to my home, the home that didn't involve Will in any way and then I find out that Will was sent to the hospital because she is in labor and so I came as fast as I could." Matt said irritably.
"You left my daughter alone this close to giving birth." Susan yelled angrily.
"Don't you talk to me about leaving her alone. I stayed with her for months and I couldn't take it anymore and so I told her to head home because neither of us could take it any longer. I can't work two jobs anymore miss Vandom. I had to leave and so did she but she refused to listen to me just like she has the last nine months and her friends have told her the same thing over and over. She wouldn't listen to anyone. She isn't going to give up the child and she isn't going to go home willingly. I did my best but I can't handle it any more so back off." Matt yelled sitting down on one of the chairs.
"You two broke up?" Cornelia asked sadly.
"Yes Corny, we broke up." Matt snapped and then held his hands to his head.
"Ok grumpy." Cornelia said.
"Don't start with me Corny, I have worked two jobs for eight months now day and night so don't go there." Matt said getting angrier
Taranee looked over at Cornelia who was about to say something but Taranee gave her a look and Cornelia closed her mouth. Everyone sat there staring at the ground for the rest of the time. Forty-five minutes later and a doctor came out telling them that the mother could come in. "I'm the father." Matt said and then got an angry glare from the doctor and decided to figure out he wasn't there later on and let him go in as well.
Susan and Matt walked in to find Will with a small child in her arms. She looked up and then immediately looked down angrily and hurt. The two looked at the child and then left leaving Will to sleep.
