– Oh umm Bette? could you ummm. Leave the light on?- hate hospitals and I’m not a big fan of darkness so

            – Yeah don’t worry I’ll stay here with you till you fall asleep, ok? Besides even if I wasn’t here, be sure that you’re not alone in this place.-

            – Thanks Bette.-

            – No problem kiddo.- And so she did, I didn’t even noticed she was gone till I woke up this morning, she left me a little note near to the still on lamp next to my bed: “The girls will come back to check on you later, love B.”  now I have to eat this nasty looking breakfast, looks disgusting, I wish Tina was here she would let me eat whatever I wanted for breakfast When I was getting ride of the annoying nurse who was trying unsuccessfully to make me eat that breakfast, Tina got into the room, and I felt like a little kid who knows she has done something wrong but is trying to hide it.

            – Sydney, why haven’t you eat your breakfast?-

            – Umm, it looks like it tastes bad, can you get me some brownies?-

            – No Syd, I won’t get you anything, you have to eat what they give you, so you can get better.- Well I guess I was wrong, didn’t I?

            – Ok I’ll eat it but only if you promise when I get out of here you’ll make me lots of brownies and cookies, deal?-

            – Deal, now eat, I won’t leave this room till your done.- talk about having a mother, huh? But it’s ok, I like the fact that she cares about me. So when I was done, and almost puking out what I just eat, Tina started talking again.

            – So Bette tells me we have adopted you into the family-

            – Umm yeah I told her you both are the closest to having parent I’ve ever been, and she basically adopted me, does that bother you?- I truly hope it doesn’t

            – Not at all, we love you a lot and have always felt you like our child, maybe because you’re the youngest one of the group. But I want to tell you something very important.- Hmm

            – Tell me.-

            – I’m pregnant.-

            – What?! Holy *****! That’s great!! Congratulations Tina!!!-

            – Thanks! We found out the day of the accident, that’s why we haven’t told you, but we wanted you to be the first to know, after all this baby will be you’re brother or sister.-

            – Wow!  Well thank you, that’s gonna be one happy and loved baby, I will personally take care of that.- No one will lay a hand on this baby, I will make sure that he or she will be very happy. Wow! Can you believe it? I have a family now, a real one with parents and even a baby brother or sister, see? That’s why I told you this accident could’ve been so much worst,  if my future will be attached to a wheel chair  so be it. Anyways later today Bette got here, and Tina and her went on and on about the baby, and discussing about having at home cause Tina doesn’t want him to get born on a hospital, I’ll call it a he since I don’t know what’s it gonna be and I don’t want to call him it, sounds too cold. But I was listening to themso excited and happy, but I don’t know when it got to the point that they were asking all these things about my life and my real parents, and I was gonna just avoid the subject, but they have opened their hearts to me so I guess I should do the same. So I started talking, and I kept on talking and as I was saying all those things about my life I could see the reaction on their faces, so sad, I’m prying for them to not feel pity for me, or that they would feel obligated to love me, that’s the last thing I want, but somehow I’m feeling a little better, sharing this things for the first time ever, it’s like getting ride of a little bit of the burden, and I feel both terrified and lighter.
