Haley slowly walked along the pavement of the main road of Tree Hill, starring at her shoes. She couldn't explain what's going on with her. She supposed to stop at the drugstore and passed the door end entered the store. She went along the shelves and searched for that what she was looking for. Haley's hand stopped at the aspirin but slid to the tall white box next to the aspirin. She looked at the package in her hand and had a thoughtful expression. She sighed and went to pay for the package. Maybe it's the answer for feeling sick and being moody all the time, but maybe it's only a stomach ache or a sign for her upcoming menstruation. She paid the few dollars automatically and left the drugstore.
What now? She couldn't go home, because if Nathan found out what Haley was worried about he would be worried too and that wasn't what Haley wanted and she didn't know what his reaction about that situation will be. She decided to go to Karen's. No one would disturb Haley there.
Haley went into the little café and Karen looked up to Haley. "Haley what are you doing here? Didn't you have to be at school?" Karen Row asked Haley. Karen always was like a mother to Haley, because her own mother hadn't always the time for Haley, so Haley really welcomed that Karen took care about her. "Actually right, but I felt sick so I left. I thought I stayed here for a while, because when I'm here I always feel good." Haley mentioned. Karen gave Haley a smile. "I hope I'm okay until tonight. Excuse me I have to do something if you know what I mean." Haley said. Karen only nodded and went to a guest.
Haley opened the toilet door and closed it immediate. She went to one of the cabins and locked the door. She searched for the tall white package that she bought at the drugstore and looked at them again. "Okay, let's do it!"
Haley thought she waited for ages, but it was only 15 minutes. Haley's watch chirped and she took a deep breath. She was sitting on the top of the toilet and looked nervous at the tiny plastic thing that lied next to her, her legs were restless shacking. She took it and closed her eyes for a Moment. Then she opened them again and looked down to the test in her hands. Positive. Definitely positive. Why did this happen to her? She was only 17, 18 in a few months. She was only been married for 6 months. She was still at school and now that? How should she tell Nathan? How should she tell Lucas? How should she tell everyone? Haley noticed that tears worked their way out of her eyes and she began sobbing. Haley couldn't handle this situation; she wanted Nathan beside her, right now. She wanted that he closed her arms around her, his hands running over her hair and she wanted that he told their that everything will be fine and that love Haley no matter what. However, now she was completely alone with this situation and the dissolved girl felt simply broken inside. Suddenly she heard that someone entered the toilet room and Haley stopped crying at once. "Haley? Are you alright? You're already inside the toilet for 20 minutes. Is something wrong?" Karen asked worried. Of course she heard Haley sobbing but didn't say anything. "Uhm, yeah Karen everything is fine, don't worry. I'll be back in a few minutes." Haley lied. Nothing was fine, she wasn't fine and Haley was totally dissolved.
"Oh okay." Haley only heard that the door banged and so she thought Karen left the room and then she slowly went out of the cabin. But when Haley came out she found Karen leaning on a washbasin. "Okay missy, now tell me what's going on with you!" Karen wanted to know urgent. Haley began sobbing again and felt into Karen's open arms. Lucas' Mum closed their arms around Haley and rubbed her back. "Everything will be fine Haley, but first let me know what's wrong with you." Haley looked up to Karen and wiped her tears away. She pulled the white thing out of her bag and gave it to Karen. Karen looked really shocked when she saw what Haley gave her. Karen pulled Haley back into her arms and rubbed her back again. "Haley please don't cry. Everything will be all right. Nathan and you will work this out. He loves you more than everything of the world." "I don't deny this, but we are so young, we are only married for 6 month. How can we work this out?" "Haley it will all become good. I think you have to talk to Nathan." Haley came loose from Karen and only nodded. "You're right. But please don't tell anyone about that, not either Lucas." Karen nodded. "I'll promise I don't tell anyone about that not until you did it." "Thank you Karen. I'm glad to have you." Karen answered with a kiss on Haley's head and both left the toilet room.
