Aunt Glinda's House

The car ride there was pretty peaceful we laughed and joked around, and mom even sung some songs. Forty Five minutes later mom notified us that we were at Aunt Glinda's house and parked In the driveway before unhooking her belt that was once around her. We haven't seen Aunt Glinda In two months but besides that I'm a little worried because she always seems to know what's going on with you before you tell her. I guess you can call her a fortune teller or someone In that line of work, I just want to be ready to tell mom and I don't want Aunt Glinda blurting It out before I get a chance to explain. I know I should have told mom earlier, I mean technically It would be easier since she would know what's really going on with me.

It would be easier to go to the doctor's office to get the right medication "Well you guys ready to see your Aunt?" Me and Toby looked at each other before shrugging I opened the passenger's door, got out, and shut the door before opening Toby's car door and helping him out of the car. Mom got out shortly after and joined us in front of the car "Well...let's get this show on the road" she said walking towards the house Me and Toby looked at each other then back at the house the followed mom to the front door. " Now she said just to knock three to five times" and that's exactly what mom does and by the fifth knock the door opens and a little girl around five answers the door.

A figure runs up to the little girl "I thought I told you not to answer the door" The woman shakes her head, looks at us and asks"I'm sorry who are you?" she asks staring at me and Toby like were gonna steal something If she didn't keep her eyes on us. My mom clears her thought and the woman brings her attention to my mom "Is my sister Glinda here?" The woman nods her head confirming that Aunt Glinda was In fact In the house. "Are you Evelyn Coriolanus?" my mom nods to the woman but before the woman could even say anything Aunt Glinda came to the door "Well what are all of you standing there for come in, come in" she says with a cheerful voice ushering us inside.

The woman closes the door and turns around facing us " I'm sorry we just don't get many people around here and last week someone broke In and stole a few things." Aunt Glinda waved it off "It's no big deal child I'm safe that's all that matters none of these possessions are more valuable to me than my life, It's okay Miranda" Mom, Toby and I were all shocked "Are you sure your okay sister?" Aunt Glinda laughs "Yes I'm okay, now there are exactly ten brownies In the kitchen help yourself" I nodded hugging Aunt Glinda "Glad your safe" I said before releasing her smiling but as soon as I saw her face she pulled me back into the hug and whispered "We have to talk" she said before pulling away and acting as If nothing has happened.

I smiled "I'm gonna go get some brownies Toby wanna come with me?" he smiled took my hand and basically dragged me to the kitchen. Toby jumped up and down before running to the counter grabbing a brownie I chuckled and walked to the counter sat down in one of the chairs and ate some brownies. Lets just say me and Toby make a great team because before we knew it there were no more brownies left. Tony burped and I patted my stomach hungrily mom came in and i removed my hand quickly away from my stomach. "Hey guys were gonna leave In ten" I nodded she was just about to step back into the hall but she stuck her head back inside the kitchen.

"Oh Miranda and her daughter Kate are gonna be joining us as well" I laughed "Okay ma I'll be outside in the backyard If you need me" I say and mom leaves the kitchen. Standing up I put the plate inside of the sink and washed the plate off with dish soap, then wiped it off with a rag and put it plate into the cabinet. I turned back and Toby was starting to get up "Hey wanna go in the backyard before we leave?" I asked looking at Toby he just nodded so I took his hand and we went outside in the backyard. "Wanna just sit down In the shade?" I said nodding towards a tree by the garage. "Yeah" Toby said and we walked to the tree luckily the tree wasn't that far from the house. It's probably like ten maybe fifteen feet away from the house and most likely five to ten feet from the garage.

Once we got there we sat down and I closed my eyes feeling the shade all around me somehow It was relaxing, It made me feel as If everything's gonna be alright. I sighed as my body was completely relaxed at this point "I'm full" Toby said making me chuckle "Same little bro" I say back to him. I sighed again because I knew I was stalling I mean we probably have six to seven minutes left until were on the road again. I already know at this point that Aunt Glinda knows about my pregnancy It's just I want to tell mom but I have no clue when's the right time to do so, I could tell her at the dinner. I shake off this thought and open my eyes I sigh It's now or she'll just bug me later about it.

"Hey Toby we'll have to go back inside soon" he looks at me when I say this and he stands up when I'm done talking "Okay let's go sis" he says taking my hand, I get up and he starts running until we get back inside the house then we walk to the living room. As soon as I enter Aunt Glinda looks at me "How was your relaxation outside guys?" she asks and I smile "It was great but my tummy hurts" Toby says and we all laugh "It was very calming and helped me think things through." Mom nods but she doesn't know what I was thinking about, maybe It is a good Idea to tell her now. I mean she's gonna find out anyways "Ah, what were you thinking about?" Miranda asks curiously I sigh and sit down on the chair to my left.

"Mostly the move from here to Oklahoma" I say as I begin to feel nervous maybe I should just blurt the words out. Ugh.. why Is this so hard I should be able to tell her and move on. Maybe It's because I'm afraid If I tell her she'll kick me out or disown me, I sigh I have to tell them this secret It's getting to the point where all I want to do Is cry. "Are you sure It seams like something else Is on your mind" Miranda says tilting her head at me trying to figure me out. I look at each one of them one by one Aunt Glinda first, Miranda and her child Katie next, Toby, Then mom last, I nod and take deep breaths "I'm two weeks Pregnant".
