Chapter Forty seven

I stood at the balcony overlooking the beautiful city of Anaheim, it was so calm and beautiful. It has already been three months that I have been here, everyone seems nice to me. It wasn't hard to fit in, I talk to mum a lot on the phone, having her ask how I was feeling, how much I was eating and all. I know she wants to be here with me but also at the same she thinks it best for me to be here, of course, she promised she'll be here before the baby was due. I looked at my protruding stomach, rubbing my hand gently on it. I was gaining more weight and my appetite wasn't something to write home about. I sipped my coffee and stare at my stomach again. "Sorry baby, that your father didn't accept you, sorry, that I would raise you without a father, I.. I promise to love and care for you no matter what". I stare back at the chilly night, it was the best idea to come here, to be far away from Sam everything about him now disgust me. I never wish to go back home or anything that reminds me of him and I have made up my mind to stay here and raise my child which means I have to search for a suitable job.

" How are you doing," the aunt asked when I walked in the kitchen to stand my her  "just super hungry". She just smiles scooping out some food for me " Am not sure that am normal again" I said carrying my food from her. "Why do you say so". " I don't know... I have been carving a lot this past week, last night I have to wake up carving for donuts" I laughed scooping my food into my mouth "That explains the missing donuts in the fridge" she laughed. "Do you know when I was pregnant with Emily, I went to fast-food restaurants just to seat and savor the smile of their food".  " what! I laughed "yeah, but my husband came to take me home in the evening, even after my plea for him to leave me there that I will come back when they're closed" she laughed holding her stomach "yeah it was weird?" Mr. James said coming to peek his wife. "She grew very stubborn and persistence when she was pregnant". " it not funny you know" she pretended to be angry. Yeah, we have to do the begging now, I smiled leaving them to go outside. I have to find a way to tell her that I want to look for a job, I was tired of sitting home all day and reading about pregnancy magazines.  "Hey! Bored again" I heard Emily said sitting next to me on the porch". "Yeah! I made a face at her, so how is school going". " fine but stressful and going to finish soon you know, then I wouldn't stress myself any longer in reading". "You're such a lazy ass"  "Am not! She laughed before coming close to whisper in my ear  " Guess what! I turned to stare at her, of course, I know why she was smiling this much. "A boy asked you out". " yeah! She clasped her hand and stare dreamily outside   "He's so lovely and handsome as well, he's coming to pick me for dinner" it just reminds me of when I was crazily in love with Sam not minding the mistake was falling into. she turned to me holding me in the hand. "I want you to meet him". " sure, I will" I smile at her "But be careful, I don't trust them". " that's why I want you to meet him"   "okay, I will, Emily! I called when she turns to look at me " Don't ever make the mistake I made". "You didn't make a mistake, you were very cautious not to make any.  You were just lying to by the person you love and trust, you don't have to blame yourself or be guilty of anything, Sam should" I smiled stroking her head, "I trust you, so...when is hex coming " Tomorrow" she beams, I nodded remembering something. "Emily! Can you follow me to see the doctor, I don't feel like going alone". " of course, you don't need to ask, it's a duty of a Godmother" she hipped she was a drama queen. 

I have dreaded coming to the hospital for year's but now I have no choice. Aunt has personally handed me over to her family doctor to treat and take care of me and the baby. I have thought he'll be harsh just like other doctors but he was gentle and kind when dealing with me. I have seen why aunt made sure he was the one who treats and examines me, he was very close to aunt sometimes he just dropped by for dinner at the house, just this made me comfortable around him. When he was done checking my blood pressure and all, he has asked me to wait behind. "Maybe he wants to discuss an important issue with you," Emily said resting her head on my shoulder "I just hope it's not something serious, I hope my baby is fine". "Of course nothing is wrong with my goddaughter, stop saying that". " Sorry to keep you ladies waiting" Emily jumped at him immediately he saw him "Hi doc!! " Hi Emily! I think you're old enough to do that". "I don't think so and you made us wait for long" she frown  "so sorry". " I don't think am the one who needs the apology the most she said turning to me "you made her worry". " oh! So sorry Rebecca, theirs nothing to worry about, I just want to ask if it okay to ask you out for dinner" "what! Umm...
