1When it was time for the staff meeting to start, all of workers that work in the hospital including, Kelly, were in another room trying to find their seats. They made sure to sit before their boss came in. Kelly had found her seat which was right next to Annie, just in time. When their boss came in, he was dressed in somber clothes looking very business like.
"Okay everyone!",he shouted, as he put his clipboard on the counter.
"We have a lot of stuff-on the agenda today I want everybody to be paying attention and all eyes on me.",he said.
Kelly's feet started tapping. She already wanted this meeting to be over and done with. The boss was named Christopher Becker. He was the type of boss that takes everything seriously. He could go on and on about the same thing since he is such self centered person and obnoxious boss. Kelly was frightened at the thought of what his reaction would be if he found out that she's got a blackboard for everyone to see what his plans were. Kelly started groaning.
"This is like high school all over again...",she mumbled under her breath having a flashback to one of her high school days.
,Kelly's teen years were the worst. Her parents fought a lot. She rebelled a lot and got into trouble. In her heart, she knew didn't want to repeat history with her own child. She has very plan to do better than her own parents.
Christopher started drawing on the blackboard showing the staff what to do next about handling sick patients.
Kelly immediately started dozing
"This meeting has been the most boring meeting ever.," she thought to herself before closing her eyes and falling asleep.
"Kelly!",shouted a voice.
Kelly immediately woke up before looking at her boss. He was glaring at her from across the room.
"You better be paying attention, because this is serious!",he said loudly.
Kelly didn't know how long she had been asleep. She was hearing whispers behind her back from other co workers she could tell they were talking about her...
"And I thought she was okay.",another voice said.
"Dude, do you think she's pregnant?",asked another voice.
"Well I hope not! She would be kicked out of this department immediately.",said the last voice.
Two voices shared a laugh. Kelly didn't like it what she heard behind her back.
It made her morning sickness reached high and that is when Annie could see green on Kelly's face
"You okay?",asked Annie concerned.
"I'm fine...it's just..",began Kelly.
Christopher turned back around again, Kelly reached her hand up high.
"Christopher can I use the bathroom?"Kelly excused herself.
She was hoping he would say yes.
"Yes you may, Kelly, but be right back!",he ordered.
Kelly got up and ran out of the doorway as fast as she could feeling like a million eyes were staring at her.
In The Restroom~
Kelly puked in one of the toilets in a stall. Kelly got up on her two feet to wash her face and her hands,
By the time she left the restroom, to her shock, she could see Christopher and all the other co workers including Annie standing blocking her way.
"Shoot..",she thought to herself.
"Kelly Kapoor this is the second time that you threw up you said it was the stomach flu. Are you sure your really okay?",demanded Christopher.
Kelly sighed she had no choice to tell everyone
"I'm pregnant...",she said.
,Christopher went in immediately silence so did the rest of the co workers.
Most of them said,"I knew it."
Some of them were shock,Kelly didn't care about that right now she is waiting to see how Christopher would react he was silent for a little but until he said the most disgusting thing to her...
"Is it planned or unplanned?", he followed up his other rudeness.
Kelly's eyes widened in shock to what he said. Sure she was upset at Ryan for spending the night with her in his apartment, then, leaving her the next morning. It resulted in her going through this pregnancy alone without him. Luckily, Andy was happy to hear that she was pregnant.
Andy promised to stay with her throughout the whole thing, even though he is not the father of her baby she was lucky that she had someone like him.
"Why would you say that?",asked Kelly annoyed.
"Oh Kelly,Kelly, in this hospital- we have a very high standing in the community. We don't want any "bad girls" in this hospital." ,said Christopher.
"So you're trying to say that my baby is a "mistake"?",suggested Kelly.
"No,no babies are never mistakes if this pregnancy is planned."qualified Christopher.
Kelly was in silence she didn't know what to say.
"My baby is never going to be called a mistake.",whispered Kelly.
"I can't hear you!," goaded Christopher.
"My baby is never a mistake. What you are saying is selfish and disgusting. You should be understanding about my situation not judging me,as long as I keep this job,my son or daughter is going to be lucky that he or she is going to have a mom that worked all her life giving them the best life."answered Kelly.
"So this pregnancy was a accident."smirked Christopher.
"Christopher, why would you keep saying that!?",yelled Kelly.
"Well, if you don't know if this pregnancy was a accident, and I don't know if it is an accident.. maybe you should get a abortion. We don't want this " little episode" to give the hospital a "bad name" don't we?",asked Christopher.,
Kelly gasped. She could never imagine getting a abortion. She would regret it for the rest of her life. She had already been through so much pain throughout her life, she was kinda happy when she found out she was pregnant knowing. She is finally going to move on from her old life and start a new life
"You know what I'm leaving.",said Kelly.
She walked straight for the exit. Everyone watched in shock even Annie was shocked. Kelly was holding back her tears she knew. Annie was watching the whole thing. Christopher was the same. Nobody did a single thing to stand up for her! On the way home on the bus she could only think about that moment
"Pathetic...they're all pathetic...",she thought to herself angrily sitting by herself on the bus ride. She wrapped her hand around her stomach
"Little one, don't listen to what everyone says, you hear me ! You are no mistake. You are my saving grace."softly said Kelly to her stomach," I can't wait for the moment you will be born. It would be the happiest moment of my life..."said Kelly with a smile.
