Chapter 20

"What just happened there?" her dad asked.
"I don't know!" Brian answered.
"Well Sara's in there talking to her, they probably tell each other everything. She'll find out whats going on" Her mom said.
"Yea I guess" Brian answered.
"I'm gonna go see whats wrong." Her dad said getting up.
"Sit down, leave the girls alone." Her mom said pulling him back to the couch.
"So, how has Maria been? I'm her mom and you've seen her more than me" she laughed.
"She's been good, except for the accident of course."
"Are you ready for a baby yet?" dad asked.
"Well I must admit when she first told me I almost passed out." he said laughing.
"But otherwise, I've been checking up on her, making sure shes ok"
"Well we're lucky she has someone like you" her dad said patting Brian on the shoudler.

"Maria whats wrong?" Sara asks, sitting on the bed next to her sister.
"Nothing..this is just to much for me to handle right now" Maria grabs a kleenex and whips the tears from her eyes.
"Whats to much to handle?"
"The baby....and the accident...and Brian coming back into my life...it just all came too fast."
"Everything will be fine Maria, don't worry. Now come back into the living room before dad comes in here and tries to bond with us."
The sisters both laugh then walk back into the living room.
