Chapter 32: Charlie

The last two weeks had been tense anytime Sarah and I had been together. We couldn't have a conversation without the baby situation coming up, which made being around anyone else rather difficult. Neither of our parents knew, and I hadn't even told Austin. I'd read more about spinal injuries and pregnancy than I ever cared to, and I was convinced, now more than ever that we needed to wait until Sarah was stronger.

But at this point, we'd missed the appointment for the termination, and now Sarah had her heart set on an OBGYN in Laredo who claimed to work miracles. The last time I checked, Jesus was the only man who'd walked on water, but the one time I'd made that statement it had erupted in an argument I never cared to repeat.
