Myra All Mine

Chapter 33

Amika's Pov
9am
...

When I woke up the next morning, I didn't feel rested at all, the whole night, I'd been tossing and turning...after being in a coma for 3 months, you'd think I'd be rested

Being 5 months pregnant was surely a shock to me when I woke up.....it was a mix of emotions....sadness, fear, happiness, suprise...

I've been paranoid of sleeping, that's why when I tried to sleep last night....I didn't feel like I could sleep....

What...What if I sleep forever this time...

No....No...No, I had to think positive. Also Loren already got married, about the same week when I fell into the coma, which meant it was nearly last week of October now

How is it already October..??

Accepting all this information was so overwhelming, I....I.....felt like I couldn't breathe anymore

I was going to be a mom in  3 months...

My family was still alive and they were searching for me...

I tried taking deep breaths like the doctor had shown me yesterday, but I just couldn't do it.... I just can't...

The lack of oxygen made my eyes start to water and I started to choke, I tried to breathe again, with the exact method the doctor showed me

Breathe Amika..... it'll all be okay....One voice in my head said to me

No Amika....it won't be okay, you're going to be a mom and you can barely take care of a 4 year old.... another voice said

Oxygen start to go into my lungs as I controlled my breathing. Lucas came into the room and saw me crying....

"Amika....what's wrong....should I call the doctor?????!!!!" He asked while holding my shoulders gently and hugging me
"No... don't, I'm okay..."I said while crying on his shoulder
"Well, do you want me to stay with you..."He asked calmly
"No....I...I...I just feel like being alone, if you don't mind..."I said while breaking away from the hug

He looked sad at first, then smiled and kissed my forehead
"Okay....I'll leave you alone till you're feeling better, but if you feel worse, don't hesitate to call me, okay?.."
I nodded and he left the room

I got back into the covers and tried to sleep a little bit, but I just couldn't....so I grabbed that pregnany pamphlet that Miss Monroe gave me all those months ago

"At 5 months pregnant, or 20 weeks, your baby would have fully developed by this point, which would be the baby's lungs, head, fingerprints etc. At this stage, more frequent urination, lighthheadness and. Baby may kick more frequently...."

It was I read that when I realized that from the time that I had woken up from the coma, that the baby hadn't kicked at all....

Is there something wrong with the baby...???

I started to to think of different possibilities, then I remembered that the pamphlet also said that in some rare cases it did start at different times...

I decided that sitting in bed and hoping to sleep won't do anything, so I got out of bed and walked into the bathroom...

I stripped naked and turned on the cold water, then sat in the filling bathtub.....the cold water hit me like a sudden cold wind....giving me goosebumps and chills everywhere....but honestly, it made me feel so much better...more alert and everything I hadn't felt before.....

15 minutes later

I grabbed a towel, and walked out of the shower, then walked into the closet to look for something before
