Zoey
I flush the toilet and rinse my mouth out with water from the sink, the taste of everything I’ve been eating is like metal in my mouth. I splash some cold water onto my face and wipe it off with one of the hand towels. Looking at myself I look drained as if someone is stealing the life force from my body, I not pregnant am I? I chuckle and brush the foolish idea right out of my head. There’s no way that I’ve gotten myself pregnant, what will I tell Elijah? What will I tell Xavier? What will I Tell the Kids? f**k!
I head to the car where Elijah is patiently waiting for me so we can go. The entire ride he’s staring at his phone like he’s in a trance with whatever he’s looking at. I don’t bother him, just get ready to go into the house, He drops me off and tells me he’ll be back later
