33. Chapter Thirty-Three
A week later

I pushed myself up from the floor of the bathroom, reaching up to the flush the toilet as I wiped my mouth. At the sink, I quickly washed my hands before rinsing my mouth out.
After I brushed my teeth, I took a deep breath and stared into my reflection in the mirror. I felt like shit. I hadn’t been sleeping and I was throwing up every day. I could only image how much weight I’d lost in the last week of being at my sister’s.
“How you doing?” Jenna asked as she came to lean against the door frame.
I dragged my tired eyes over to my sister, just in time to watch Jenna set a pink box onto the counter top. A pregnancy test. “Fuck.” My heart sank upon seeing the box. The realization rolling over me.
“Yeah,” Jenna murmured.
“Fuck,” I repeated.
Jenna nodded. “That’s usually how it happens.”
I couldn’t even crack a smile at the off-hand joke. In my mind, I just repeated the word: Fuck. This couldn’t be happening!
“I’ll give you some privacy,” Jenna said, after she pulled a paper dixie cup out of the medicine cabinet.
I nodded numbly.
Jenna left the bathroom.
All I could do was stare at the box. Fuck.
This was it. All my hopes and dreams, all of my plans, all laid out before me, about to change. Everything was about to change. I didn’t need the test to know the answer.
In my heart, I already knew the answer.
I was pregnant.
