Life as it Is

Chapter 2: Going Home

I was now in the kitchen making breakfast for Sara who was still in bed. She was having major stomach aches because of the constant kicking from the babies part. Of course she was thrilled at the idea of the baby but it did come with negative points. I heard footsteps coming down the stairs, I turned around to see Sara coming down the stairs in her blue bathrobe and matching slippers. I walked up to her and put my hands around her waist and kissed on the forehead.

"You ok?" I asked her worriedly.

She nodded and smiled, she went to sit down at the table and started to eat her blueberry pancakes. She wasn't eating just picking at her food. I knew what this was about, it was about if we should go home or not. A view minutes later she spoke up.

"You know what we discussed yesterday?" she asked.

We can't really say we discussed much.

I turned in her direction but she avoided my eyes.

"Why do you absolutely want to go back?" I asked raising my voice a bit

She stayed silent.

I walked up to her, sat down and took her hands in mine.

"Well because this baby is gonna need some aunts and uncles and I want her to grow up with a real family." She said starring at her plate.

I was in utter shock at what she just said.

"What are you talking about, this baby is going to grow up in a real family?" I said stooping up to her level. By now she had tears in her eyes.

"No I mean I want the baby to have an uncle Greg, and an Aunt Catherine and Nick and Warrick" she said tears running down her cheeks. I looked at her and wiped her tears with my thumb.

I took her in my arms and sat down in the chair pulling her in my lap as she cried in my arms. I rubbed her back smoothly and tough about what she had said. Its true we could never replace Greg, he would make a great uncle, the funny kind you know. And Catherine would be trilled to be an aunt. My thoughts were interrupted as I heard Sara start to breath in shallow breaths and moan in pain. I quickly stood up and sat her down on the chair as I saw her clutch her stomach in pain. I ran to the bathroom and opened the medicine cabinet and grabbed a bottle of medicine and ran back to the kitchen where Sara was In tears and pain. I grabbed a glass of water and handed her the pill and the glass. She took the pill and gulped the water down in one shot. She started to breath normally now and looked at me with tears in her eyes and said,

"I wanna go home"

I looked at her and then at her swollen stomach, I put a hand on top of hers.

"Let's go home" and hugged her.
