August 11, 2011: 21 weeks or (five months along).
I woke up with the radio blasting the pop music and I turn the radio off quickly then went back to sleep for about five minutes. Then the baby started his/her kicking activity.
"Alright, alright. I'm getting up now," I grunted as I got up from the bed.
I took a warm shower and put on my favorite sundress. After doing that, I opened my windows because it was so hot in my apartment so I thought that it would be windy.
Boy, I was wrong.
It was so hot outside that I could swear that I could hear the steam coming off the windows.
"Aww man!" I moaned as I closed the windows. I went to the air conditioner and try to turn the cool air on. I realized that it had broken down, probably overnight.
"DAMN IT! It's so hot!" I growled to myself and called the landlord. Apparently, I was not the only one with the broken air conditioner. The entire apartment was out of cold air conditioner.
"Mi dispiace tanto, Isabella. Ho chiamato un riparatore di oggi, ma che ha eseguito il backup. Quindi non so quando sarà qui," My landlord says, sighing heavily.
(I am so sorry, Isabella. I called for a repairman today but he's backed up. So I do not know when he'll be here,).
"Oh no. Beh, credo che andrò al parco e mi siedo su un asciugamano sotto l'ombra di un albero enorme. Ho bisogno di recuperare le mie lezioni scolastiche per la mia classe comunque. Io sono sempre a disagio con il calore in modo ti lascio andare. Bye," I said, hanging up my phone.
(Oh no. Well, I guess I'll go out to the park and sit down on a towel under the huge shade of a tree. I need to catch up on my school lessons for my class anyway. I am getting uncomfortable with the heat so I'll let you go. Bye,).
I grunted in pain as the baby kicked me pretty hard. "Okay, you need to take it easy on Mama today. She's very uncomfortable." I mumbled, rubbing my sore spot as I put on my white flip flops.
I grabbed my lessons folder and keys and went outside. I was already melting as I walked to the nearby park.
There are few people running on the track in the park and I found a good tree to sit underneath.
It was a pretty good damn tree because I was finally cooling down. I lay back against the tree and shook off my flip flops and worked on the lessons.
I was so focused on the lessons that I didn't realize that somebody was standing in front of me.
"Earth to Isabella," he chuckled.
I frowned and looked up. It was Flack.
"Oh, hi Flack. I didn't see you or heard you," I chuckled and put the lessons aside.
"You're pregnant," Flack stammered as he saw my belly. I looked down and forgot that I haven't told Flack.
"Oh, yeah. I forgot to tell you," I chuckled and patted the empty spot for him to sit down.
Flack sat down and stared at my belly before looking back at me.
"Um, how far along are you?" Flack looked terrified, I guess because of our drunken one night stand.
"Five months and don't worry. It's Mac's." I smiled gently and Flack sighs out of relief.
Flack frowned and lay back against the tree, loosing up his tie.
"Then why Mac didn't tell me about the baby?" Flack asked and I looked away for a moment.
"Mac doesn't know about the baby yet and I would like for you not to say a word to him." I said, looking at him with a serious face.
Flack's eyebrows went up in surprise. "What? He doesn't know yet? Well, when are you planning to tell him?"
I sighed heavily and rubbed my belly. "I don't know yet. Part of me wants to tell him now and part of me wants to get back at him by not telling him until the child is eighteen years old."
"Isabella, you know that is not a good idea," Flack tried to protest but I shut him up by telling him, "No, Flack, it may not be a good idea to you but it is to me because I'm hurt and I want to hurt him. It's none of your damn business, Flack!" I grunted in anger.
We were quiet for a while, sitting by each side until Flack cleared his throat.
"Okay, Isabella, I won't say a word but it's going to be hard for me considering that Mac is my boss and my friend too. He's the one who got me out of drinking after Jessica died. He has done everything for me and I have done everything for him too. So please do me a favor and tell him soon because he will literally kill us if he finds out that we knew before Mac."
I sighed heavily and was silent for a moment. "I can't make a promise but I'll try, Flack."
I smiled as I rubbed the tummy. "The baby is kicking again. Do you want to feel the kicking?"
Flack smiled and nodded. I took his hand and put on my belly. He smiled again as he felt the kicking.
"Sure is active today, huh?" He says, putting his hand back to himself.
"Yeah, I think he or she will be a soccer player someday," I said and we laughed together.
"Are you going to find out the baby's sex?" Flack asked, fixing his tie.
"No, I want to keep it a surprise. But I have a feeling that it's going to be a girl," I broke into a grin. Flack smiled back and shook his head softly. "What make you think that?"
"Well, I had a dream last night that I was holding a baby girl. So I guess it'll be a girl but who knows? God knows though," I started joking and Flack laughed.
"I got to go back to work. See you later, Bella," he gives me a peck on my cheek and left me along with the lessons.
I looked at my watch and realized that I was here for about three hours. I stood up and stretched out my arms. I slapped on my flip flops and walked back to my apartment.
I entered in the hall of my apartment and heard the blasting air.
"Yes, it's on!" I shouted and stood there, facing the vent blowing the cold air on my face.
I sighed in happiness and prayed that the heat wave will be over soon.
oh the bold words is for the english translation, just in case you get confused or something like that. :)
