"Wait, do I go to a club?" Loretta asks "Why would going to a club to talk make anything better?"

"Sweetie, I don’t know if it was Alex's plan. He told me to tell Stenz, convince him to go to a club with us."

"It worked right? There weren't any problems?"

"Well, Stenz wasn't really happy about it, because Alex wanted me to go first with him."

Why did Alex want you to go with him? To anger him or something?"

"Er, wait, sorry, I'm not exactly getting the story right."

"Um, OK, because I don't see why Alex would want to take you with him first. It only means he wanted to annoy Stenz. He wanted Stenz to kill him."

    "So, what did the letter say?" Loretta asks excitedly."Err, what letter?" Matt asks, waking up."Oh no, he's not supposed to hear this," Lauren says, biting her lower lip."Not supposed to hear what, Lauren? What else are you still hiding? ""She's not hiding anything, Matt. You already know about the letter that Alex sent to your house the next week.""Wait, he reached out?""Um."Lauren, did he really send a letter? Did he really reach back? Jesus Christ Lauren, are you fucking kidding me? ""Umm."I'm fucking saying something. I can't believe I closed my eyes and woke up to this shit. For four years, Lauren, I've lived with this. I've had the impression that Alex never showed up, never came back like he promised he would.I've loathed the guy for four years, Lauren, four years. Why the fuck did you hide this from me? After everything, I did for you,"C'mon Matt, let's not make this an issu

    Lauren looked at Matt as his jaw lay wide open. She watched as his face went from utterly shocked to confused and then to slight anger.She didn't think he'd be taking it this way, but then again, she didn't know how else he would take it. She had to tell him no matter what."What the fuck do you mean you're pregnant?" he yelled.You don't have to yell, Matt. That's the news I wanted to tell you.""What the fuck do you mean you are pregnant?""You already asked that, Matt.""What?!"Matt's eyes go behind Lauren, while Lauren turns around to see Loretta standing there."Loretta," Lauren said, "When did you get there? How long have you been standing there?""What!?""Loretta, are you OK?" Lauren asks, "Why do you keep saying what?"What the fuck is going on here? What did I just hear Matt say?""Loretta, um...""Lauren," Loretta said in the lowest tone, "Can you quiet

    "Wait, what?" Loretta exclaims."You heard me, Wayne. I'm sure I didn't stutter. She is not carrying my child."Matt, use your fucking brain. She said she's..." She turns to Lauren and asks, "How many days or weeks?""Four weeks," Lauren whispers back.“Do your math.” Right then, she turns back to Matt and said she's four weeks pregnant.“Do your math."I have done my math Wayne. We stopped sex for two weeks, and I'm sure it's been up to two weeks since I called it quits with her. Isn't that math enough for you Wayne? Isn't it? ""That's not even how a lady works, you dumb fuck."Why are you even talking, Wayne? Why isn't she saying anything?Lauren Why aren't you saying anything? I'm getting tired of Wayne having to speak for you all the time. It's getting really, really annoying."She doesn't have to talk if she doesn't want to."

    "Er Loretta, are you OK? You froze. ""Umm, yes, I'm very fine.""Why'd you freeze?"Is this why you didn't want to leave the guy for four years? Damn! "Shut up girl, that's not why."Matt just stayed on the chair, making annoying sounds.What's pissing him off? You should be glad I'm shocked. Most guys would want this type of shock.

    "Whoa, hold it there buster," Loretta said shocked "You gotta get your story straight, so your telling me that he just out of the blues, sent you a text? Where'd he get your number? How the hell do you know it was Stenz?These are the things you could maybe gently tell us, get your story straight man, don't just start from the middle of nowhere.""Ok fine, I'll say it right.""Thank you.""A week before we broke up before I called it quits, this weird, strange unknown number texts me while I'm at work, wrote my name Matthews, so I'm like do I know you, he says of course you do, who do you think your girl's been cheating on you with.""Just like that?""Yeah just like that, somehow he knew we hadn't been, you know, intimate.""So a random person tells you that he's been sleeping with me, you girl, and you believed him?"

    When she was mad at Lauren, she was good at throwing stuff. Loretta picked up the aid box off the floor where she previously threw it when she was mad at her. She handed it to Lauren."Here you go, the aid box I threw.""Yeah, you throw well, thank you," Lauren said, talking about the box.The box was cute, seeing as it was Lauren who made it herself. She made the box herself and bought the other stuff and put it in there.She stooped in front of Matt to get a better view of what she was going to do. She opened the box and brought out a pair of scissors first. Matt saw it and tried to talk, but Lauren wouldn't let him."Lauren, um..."Don'

    Lauren gently closes the door and leans her head on it. Loretta watches her from the dining table."What was that all about?" Loretta asks."What was it all about?""The wasting time at the door, you could have helped push him out, or maybe call me to help.""Shut up Loretta." She takes her head off the door and walks to the sofa."You don't get it.""Uh but your wrong Lauren, I do get it, you still love him, don't you?""Well, it's just part of me still wants him, and the other part's scared of getting myself hurt all over again.""Well I know for sure, goodbye's the hardest word to say to someone you love, but if that person's meant to be part of your life, they're gonna come crawling back somehow.""Yeah, your probably right, I feel a lot better."So.. he couldn't have gone far. Don't we need to give him a warning note like a "Never coke back when you find out the baby's yours" kind of warning note?"

    I'm going to take Loretta into the gaming room right now. Are you planning to attend? Alex inquires."Yeah, I'll be there in a sec. Allow me to finish emailing this to my employer, Diego,""All OK, see you then."Loretta's favorite room in Alex's huge mansion was undoubtedly the gaming room, which she had discovered recently. They used it to play a variety of entertaining games. They most likely did it on a regular basis. Loretta had no idea, but they had been going in there every Friday night since she had started working there and having Olivia spin and fall on whatever game was on the game board to select what they were playing to determine what they were playing. They were now playing checkers, and Olivia had a good chance of winning. She appeared to be an adult trapped in the body of a four-year-old.Loretta wasn't actually on the winning side, and this was most likely due to the fact that she was preoccupied. She was glancing across the room a

    "Loretta! Loretta!" yells the crowd. Lauren's voice may be heard in her dreams or her mind's ears. Was she in a coma once more? Was this something that was going to happen again? Lauren's speech was becoming clearer, so it didn't appear like she was in a coma; rather, it appeared that she was in a dream that she was now waking up from. "Loretta, get the heck out of bed."Her eyes pop up, and the first thing she notices is Lauren's face, which is near to her. Lauren doesn't hear her murmur a few words that she says."Can you tell me what that was? "Sorry, I didn't hear you.She expresses herself more firmly today."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." She gets to her feet and assists Loretta in getting to her feet."Can you tell me what happened?" Loretta inquires."You had a fainting spell, which was strange. Since then, I've been attempting to jolt you awake.We encountered Stenz in a dream, and I'm not sure what occurred, but I'm sorry I'm

    "Who the heck is that?" "If you don't mind, I'd be happy to do it once again." When she answers the door, she is greeted by the one person she did not expect; Lauren."Lauren? What... and why? "What the heck is going on?!"Lauren hugged her tightly, and you could tell it was particularly tight due to her pregnant belly.Laura, don't squeeze yourself so tightly, you're going to burst.""Come on, Loretta. You can do it." "I'm very sure that's not how it works; everything is working wonderfully.""What are you doing here, Lauren? What are you doing?" You've arrived at my friggin front door. I feel like I've been paid a surprise visit."I'm aware that I'm at your door, Loretta, and I was wondering if you would mind letting me in? The travel was lengthy, and I know you're aware that I'm expecting a child."Why didn't you simply take a plane or something?" says the other."Pregnant.""Who says pregnant ladies can't fly by plan

    Lauren was dealing with Matt during the first week of December, but she was also thinking about a lot of other things at the time. It didn't appear to be much of an issue at first, but it turned out to be. When Matt returned, the first week of December had been a complete and utter disaster. She had just completed tidying up her flat in preparation for Lorenzo's arrival for supper at her residence. It had taken her hours, but she had finally completed her task. After then, someone outside pressed the buzzer.Loretta not only had a good doorbell, but she also had a good buzzer to go with it. It represented the word "home" for her. She assumed it was Lorenzo, but he had arrived far too soon for the time they had agreed on. It didn't matter whatever way she opened it; to her dismay, it turned out to be Matt.She closes her eyes, perhaps out of shock, but perhaps not out of shock. "Get out of here.""Lauren, come on, let yourself be seen. "Let's speak about it."

    The knocks were soft on the door. Loretta thought it couldn't have been one of the nurses coming to check up on her because they'd knock once and come right in. Loretta's first guess was Kendrick, so she tries standing up to go check. She reached out for her crutches next to her when her mother said not to."Don't worry, stay where you are. I'll go see who's at the door.""Mom, it's my hospital room. I can get the door myself.""Yeah, strong head, when you don't have a broken leg, you can get your doors yourself. She walks over to the door, muttering, "I leave you to live on your own, and soon you will have an accident and land yourself in a hospital with a broken bone." This was why Loretta would never mention that she had just woken up from a two-week coma.She opens the door while Loretta tries leaning forward to see who's at the door. "Who is it, Mom?"Oh, it's just a nurse that just told me hi, a really attractive nurse.""Let him in, M

    Sixteen hours had passed, and Kendrick still hadn't shown up. Loretta had to force herself to believe that Kendrick was OK, and he was either still asleep, which was very unusual but also expected since he was a zombie because he wasn't sleeping, or he was probably at home doing whatever. She was sleeping now. She had a big day in the morning. She had told her mother about her accident. She called her on Kendrick's phone, not because she wanted to, but because she had to. Now her mother would be in the hospital with her in the morning. Like every other mother, Loretta, too, didn't like to be late. Okay, not every mother, just a reasonable number of mothers, liked to be punctual. Loretta ate punctuality for breakfast, so she would be there pretty early. Sadly, punctuality eating wasn't passed down to Loretta, and no one else besides her, because she was the only child. Nurse Beatrice was a really good help, but sadly, she was a human being and she took

    True Loretta had just told Kendrick that she was the said universe stopping their relationship, but she left out the most important part, the part where she doubted herself and she wanted not to let go, but as she'd been telling everyone to let go, no one told her to let go.To think of it, there wasn't much to let go of, except the fact that she felt no one could ever love her forever. It was actually in her past when her college boyfriend broke up with her for a really stupid reason. She couldn't believe it. While she was busy loving him, he was busy thinking of ways to leave her.Why would you break up with a reliable human being for some chick that said she would buy him the latest sports car? That was dumb and stupid, and Loretta felt every guy was just the same, dumb and stupid, and the last couple of years she's been asked out by that gender, they prove her right.Except for Kendrick, he somehow succeeded in proving her wrong, and now here she was with hi

    Loretta was sort of happy that Nadine didn't see her in her terrible state, but also sort of wished she had because she could have told her exactly how she was without withholding. She would want to withhold, but Loretta would tell her not to, and she wouldn't hesitate to not withhold."Doc wouldn't let her, something about may not be able to stand seeing you. I think he needed just positive energy, which I found out she was the one with the most positive energy. For someone her age, she took it pretty well. ""What did she say? Did she say anything? ""She did say something. She said she'd talk to you when you woke up. That was pretty nice to hear, especially since I and Sebastian were freaking out. Mostly me anyway. Sebastian was too busy telling me to get your parents, but I told him I didn't know how to because I hadn't met your parents, and he was sort of disappointed that I didn't. He was pissed."Kendrick, how did you find me?" Loretta asks, and sh

    Kendrick must have thought it was all a dream because it felt like it was, because jumping awake to Loretta saying his name, surprisingly loud, felt like he was dreaming. I mean, what are the odds that he would just close his eyes after his grand speech, and wake up to Loretta staring him in the eye?He reached out and touched her eyelids. She flinches. You can't blame him. He'd hardly slept in more than a week. For all he knew, she wasn't real.She calls his name again, but this time in a slow whisper, like she didn't believe he was there for real. "I remembered your name, Kendrick. I remembered." She reaches out for him and stops.Normally, in situations like this, all you could think of is calling a nurse in, or even calling a doctor directly, but Kendrick was stuck. He was confused and didn't understand what Loretta meant by remembering his name. He was brought out of his current confused state and placed into another. When her HRM started acti
