She paced her room for a few minutes before her phone started ringing, “Doug I am so mad. I can’t believe he even came here then he came to ask some BS. I can’t, well he is a jerk and he thinks he owns the world, which is his problem. Okay, bye.”
Tara went down stairs and sat on the couch waiting for Doug to come over. He was going into work an hour late for her, which was telling her more and more about him every day. By the time she got down the stairs and sat down her back started to ache and the she started having menstrual like cramps. She grabbed her stomach and rocked herself back and forth. She really needed Doug now, she was scared to death.
All of a sudden she was soaking wet. Tara got to her feet and looked down; she had to change her pants again. When she got half way up the stairs she felt something trickle from her again. She didn’t know what was going on so she started yelling, “MOM!”
Lana came running to the top of the stairs. “What is it?” she yelled back.
“I am soaked. I don’t know what happened, I was just sitting on the couch waiting for Doug to show up and then when I got up to walk up there stairs I felt more liquid. What is going on with me?” she cried.
She watched as her mother’s eyes got huge and she ran into Tara’s room, she didn’t know what her mom was doing in there and she was scared to move.
“Tara, I need you to go back down the stairs and wait by the door, I will be down there in a minute. I think Doug will be here by the time you get down there anyways so you will not be alone.”
Tara turned around and went back down stairs. She has never seen her mom look so panicked; does that mean she should be worried?
Before she made it to the last step she heard her front door open and in walked Doug, she was never so glad to see someone in her life as she was to see him. She smiled at him but he moved quickly by her side.
“What is wrong? Why do you look so worried or sick?”
She slide her hand into his and said, “I am not sure but my mom is acting weird and told me to go back down and wait at the door for her to come down.”
“You’re going to have your baby. Tara, it is time.” He told her smiling.
What could he be smiling about? She hurt at first and then all of a sudden wet with no more pain, she thought maybe she peed on herself to be honest. She was wrong and now that she let Doug’s words sink in she started to shake uncontrollably, she had to tighten her grip on Doug so she didn’t fall.
“How about you tell me what your father wanted? That way you keep this off your mind.” Doug said with a wave of his hand.
He helped her continue to walk and she told him,” MY father called my mom and told her he was going to come over here today, he had something he wanted to go over with me. He has not talked to me since I first told him I was pregnant; he had the nerve to ask me to give him and Stephanie my child. They want to raise her has theirs. Can you believe this crap he is pulling?” she asked.
Doug was staring at her with his mouth open, “He had the nerve to come ask you that? I will go over there as soon as we get you to the hospital. I am sorry Tara, I am here for you now and no one and I do mean what I am saying, will take your baby.” He smiled and kissed her forehead.
“Thank you for everything, don’t go over to his house. He is not worth a grain of salt.” They both turned to watch Lana fly down the stairs. She was flushed, with sweat on her face.
“We are ready to go, Hi Doug. I got the bad you need, the insurance card, and your notebook so you have something to do when no one is there with you.” She was pushing them gently out the door towards the car.
“Mom do not call dad. I do not care what he has said to you, I want to get the hospital and have my baby, and back home before him or Jake find out okay?” she asked.
She saw the worried look that crossed over her mother’s face when she told her what she wanted to happen. Her heart sank; she knew her mother called Jake or maybe both of them.
“What have you done? Whom did you call?”
She noticed her mother was speeding and barely stopping for stop signs. They were going to get there before the fifteen minute drive there. Her mother did not say a word until she pulled into the parking lot and found a spot to park near the entrance. “I am sorry Tara; I didn’t know you did not want me to call anyone. I called Jamie and Jake; I swear I did not call your father.”
Tara had no choice but to get out of the car and walk into the hospital with a heavy heart. She did not want Jake here or anywhere near her right now, she had Doug by her side and that is all she needed, well be sides her mother; she needed her at all times.
They got on the elevator that would take them to the maternity ward; Tara was moving on shaky legs and holding Doug’s hand as she approached the desk. She smiled at the nurse behind the desk and said,” Hi my name is Tara, I think my water broke about thirty minutes ago.” The lady smiled and stood up, coming from behind the desk she held her arm leading her down this narrow hallway, and turning left at the end of the hall then first room on the corner.
“The doctor will be in soon to check you, please put this gown on and make sure that the opening is in the back. Thank you so much.” She left taking Doug with her until Tara was dressed.
“Mom is this going to hurt a lot? I am so scared now that it is finally time to have the baby. I hope I am not in labor for 24 hours.” She had tears in her eyes talking with her mom.
“I am not going to lie to you, it is going to hurt. I don’t know how long you will be in labor as every woman is different. I think you are strong and you are going to make it through this just fine. Do you want me to have Doug come back when you are through dressing?”
“Yes I want Doug in here, mom please stay here to and do not let anyone in here besides the doctor. I love you mom, thank you for everything.”
Tara got undressed and finally got the gown on that tie in the back. She could keep her socks on but she had to take her under clothes off. She sat waiting on the bed for the doctor to enter the room. The door to the room opened and she looked up to see Doug walk through with a smile on his face; she could tell he was worried but he would never admit that to her.
“Are you going to be okay? I need to run home for a minute, check into work, and I will come right back, before you know it.”
Tara shook her head yes, secretly hoping he would make it back before the baby was born.
Tara Is In Labor
Tara closed her eyes for a brief moment thinking of the course her life has taken her. She thought she would be with Jake forever and raise their child; she never thought he was cheating or that she would find someone like Doug. This is not what she thought her life would be at all, 16 with a baby going to be born in any time now.
She opened her eyes because she could feel her mother staring at her. “What? You are just staring at me as if I have become some form of a monster.” She said feeling awkward.
“Nothing, I am watching you and looking at the monitors. I want to make sure you are okay.” Her mother smiled at her.
Before Tara or her mother could speak again the room door opened; she figured it was Doug and she plastered a smile on her face though she was feeling tired and she wanted to sleep.
When she locked eyes with the person in the door way she immediately got mad. She knitted her eyebrows together and her lips were a flat thin line. “What are you doing here, Jake?” she asked.
She watched him as he came further into the room, she didn’t know if he had seen her mother or not but he closed the door the heel of his foot and kept walking closer to the bed like he was in a daze. They both turned her head when Lana cleared her throat.
“What do you want Jake?” She repeated.
“I had to come check for myself if you were in labor or not. I can see it is true that you are. I am staying here Tara, until the baby is born. I want to know what we had together and I want visits.” He stated as though he had any rights.
Tara’s eyes got huge, her blood was boiling, and she wanted to get up and knock the crap out of him. “What makes you think I would ever let you see my child? I have not heard from you in nine months. What do you want?”
He stood there for a moment as he was trying to look as he was thinking. “Can we talk alone Tara? I mean damn you are not a child no more; you’re a mother.”
Tara shook her head yes at her mother when she saw her about to say something. She didn’t say anything until her mother was out of the room. Jake was right this was between them and she knew he was mad about something.
“Do you think I am stupid? I know all about you and this Doug character that has been hanging around you; you even stayed the night with him at Jamie’s house. You are a little whore aren’t you?” he asked her in an evil voice.
“I don’t see how that has anything to do with you first of all and
