“I don’t like it at all. I wonder what happened to everyone.” I asked, confused. I
knocked on Eliza’s door.
“Who is it?” she yelled from inside. I opened the door.
“Kersey!!” she screamed-literally screamed-in my ear. “Oh my gosh! I’m so
glad to see you!” she cried.
“Hey kiddo!” I said hugging her.
“Where have you two been?” she said winking.
“Haha... well... I have a surprise for you.” I said, wringing my hands. Why was I
so nervous? Eliza smiled.
“What?” she asked, hopping up and down. She was like a little sister waiting
for candy.
“Graham and I... we’re... having a baby.” I said, quietly, looking at my feet.
Eliza’s mouth dropped.
“Baby?” she asked. She dropped her mouth open even further.
“Yeah. Baby.” I said. She hugged us both once more and told us to sit on her
bed.
“So what happened to this place?” Graham asked.
“We don’t know... we think it was because they weren’t bringing in enough
money. They got new owners... it’s been really weird lately.” she said.
“Yeah... too much white.” Graham said, laughing. We talked on and on for
almost 3 hours when the nurses knocked on the door.
“Excuse me children, visiting hours are over.” she said, and closed the door
again.
“Visiting hours?” I cried. “That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.” I
exclaimed. Eliza nodded. She got up and hugged Graham and I again and she
kissed my belly.
“Come back soon. Please.” she pleaded.
“I’ll be back very soon. Do you think they will let you come to the wedding?” I
asked.
“How much longer?” Eliza asked.
“Three weeks from tomorrow.”
“I’ll... be out by then!” she stated, smiling.
“Aww! That’s great Eliza!” I said, smiling for her. Then the nurse knocked
again.
“Now please.” she said and waited for us to leave.
“See you later, Eliza.” Graham and I said in unison. We waved and left.
