YOU DID WHAT???
Baby Sister
Darcy's POV:
Mom's eyes grew wide. "What, how?" she asked confused and worried. I swallowed my pride."I've been taking them and replacing them with baby asprin." I said, not proud of what I had done. "But it's not like you actually needed them." I said. My Mom was 32, and it seemed she was too old to have another baby. "Um, yes I do thank you very much!" she yelled.
It scared me. She was a kind mother, and she never really punished me or yelled at me. Tears formed in my eyes. I was so ashamed. I was a good kid. Never got detention or sent to the office at school. Now i'm probably going to be grounded forever.
But instead of yelling more, she hugged me. Her shirt was now soaked with tears. The guilt wasn't just killing me, it was murdering me. "It's okay, honey your father and I have been trying for another baby for a long time now, and it never actually happened, so we gave up and now 5 years later, we probably have one." she explained. It made me feel better, but I still felt bad. I hoped the new baby was going to be a girl.
