It went pretty well...
In fact Tabitha couldn't believe how well it was going. But of course the happiness ended....
Tabitha had been feeling sick for a few days. So she decided to head out to the doctor to see what was up.
After her trip to the doctor not only had she discovered she had caught Lama Pox from Francis but she was also pregnant.
Tabitha knew the next step was telling Francis unfortunately he didn't take it well.
"What do you mean your pregnant?!" Francis screamed at her.
"I mean, I'm having your baby what did you think?" Tabitha said.
"There is no way that's my baby" Francis said.
"Well I haven't slept with anyone else so it has to be your baby." Tabitha said.
"How could you get pregnant and just ruin our lives!" Francis continued to yell.
"It takes two buddy." Tabitha said starting to get angry
"Your getting rid of it right?" Francis asked.
Tabitha hadn't really thought about that... It didn't take her long to decide she didn't want an abortion after watching her brother raise her niece Rae she had sort of been looking forward to becoming a parent. Maybe it would even help her make up for the fact she was thief. She thought about adoption for a few moments too. But she remembered what it was like growing up not knowing your real parents and decided against that too.
"No, I'm going to keep it." Tabitha told Francis.
"Well then you can do it without me." Francis yelled and stormed off.
Tabitha went back into the house and started to cry. She should of known Francis wouldn't be OK with this it's not like he loved her anyway. Oh well it was time to pick herself up and go to work and deliver the news there.
Of course that was also the first night she spent in Jail.
The next day her phone just keep ringing and ringing. She wasn't stupid she knew it was Caleb calling to talk her about her night last night. The problem was she wasn't ready to own up to him besides...
She hadn't even told him she was pregnant yet and the evidence was getting hard to hide.
After trying multiple times to get together with Caleb it just wasn't working so finally they just settled on a very long phone call.
"So you spent the night in Jail the other night?" Caleb asked his baby sister.
"Yes , I did." Tabitha really didn't want to tallk about this.
"Why?" Caleb asked.
Tabitha wanted to tell him the truth so bad. But she was pregnant and couldn't afford to have her brother force her to get a new job. Who would want to hire an ex-theif. She also still remembered how hard it was finding a job...no one wants a fairy either.
"I can't tell you" She said.
"Why not? I'm worried about you Tabbitha. Please just tell me what's going on?"
"I can't tell you why I spent the night in jail or why I started acting so weird when I was teen believe I want to but I just can't...But there is something I can tell you." Tabitha said.
"Ok What is it?" Caleb asked.
"I'm pregnant." Tabitha said
"What! How? Whose the Father?" Caleb asked.
"The father is Francis Draper. He's not in the picture anymore though he left when he found out I was pregnant but mom raised us on her own why can't I raise my baby on my own." Tabitha said.
"You have a point. And I'm not mad.... just a little shocked that's all. I think your going to be a great mom." Caleb said.
"Really? Thanks Caleb"
"OK I need to go Toya is trying to leave the house naked again...." Caleb said.
" Yea I've seen her around town a few times.... I'm guessing this just started when she got pregnant again?" Tabitha asked.
"Yup when she's pregnant she gets more crazy then usual..."
How does Rae feel about that?"
"Rae's a teenager...." Caleb said.
"I understand. Go rescue your wife." Tabitha said
"I love you Tabitha." Caleb said.
"Love you too."
Then they hung up the phone.
Then Brett was born. Tabitha couldn't have loved her son more. Everything was going perfectly untill...
"Andy! What are you doing here?" Tabitha had been getting ready for Brett's birthday party when suddenly she saw her co-worker Andy behind her.
Uh, oh. What's Andy gonna do?
ReplyDeleteI feel bad for Tabitha, given the fact that the father of her child decided to walk out on them. Poor girl, but I'm confident she'll be a good mother (assuming Andy doesn't do anything nefarious and/or she doesn't get into too much trouble with her job...)
Poor Tabitha, Francis is an utter git!
ReplyDeletePoor Tabitha! Francis is a jerk, she's better off without him! Andy trapping her like that doesn't look good for Tabitha--
