Try Again: Book 1

Telling Him

  When I got home, I sat in my car for a few minutes. How was I going to do this? I sighed and decided to just go in there and tell him! I got out of the car and walked in.

  " Mark?" I asked.

  " Yes?" He walked in from the kitchen.

  " Could, um, could we talk?" I asked.

  " Sure thing!" he said.He walked to the living room and sat down, and I sat down beside him.

  " Mark, I have something to say." He looked at me a little confused.

  " What is it?" he asked. Then, I panicked. I was hyperventilating, and my brain just completely shut down!

  " Is something wrong?" he asked.

  " No! No, not entirely," I said.

  " Did I do something?" he asked.

  " Nothing wrong, no," I replied.

  " Then what is it?" After a second, I finally forced my self to find words. I took a deep breath, and spat it out.

  " Mark, I'm pregnant." He was surprised. That is all I could get out of his expression. Surprise.

  " Mark?" I asked. He looked down at my stomach, then back up to my eyes.

  " Pregnant?" ha managed to ask.

  " Yea. I'm pregnant," I said. After a moment of silence, I started crying. Did he not want the baby? Did he not love me since I was now pregnant? So many thoughts were flying into my head, and I couldn't control them all. I just cried. After a moment, I felt his arms wrap around me. I looked up, and, thankfully, I saw a huge smile on his face.

  " This is great news! Don't cry!" he said happily.

  " Really?" I asked.

  " Yes! This is great news! You don't have to cry!" he said. I turned and hugged him back. I couldn't help but cry now, but these where tears of joy! He picked me up and he just looked so happy!

  " I'm going to be a dad!" he yelled. I smiled and laughed! I really couldn't have been more happy!
