Chapter 4 The next day at the park C:Why didn't you tell me sooner? R: It's painful to talk about it still. C: How long ago was it? R: Almost 14 years ago. C: Did the father know you were pregnant? R: Yeah, but he didn't care. He just told me "Good luck." and walked out of the baby's life and mine. She starts to cry She doesn't look at him. C: Come here Sam.(She goes over to him and burys her head in his chest) Look that jerk is gone now and you've got me. She nods. She's still crying C: Rita, look at me.(She doesn't look up. He tips her chin up) Sweetie, nothing's ever going to change. Nevah. She smiles. C: Now that's what I like to see. You know nothing can ever make me stop loving you. Rita's sobs have finally subsided. C: You okay now? R: Yeah. You know, Bren was telling me about a promise that her and Jax made. They said that no matter what happens, nobody leaves. I was thinking we make a promise kinda like that. C: Sounds good to me. But you know, we did that when we said our vows. R: I know. Brenda and Jax made that promise along with their vows. C: Okay. This is what we will do. When we get married again we'll include a promise like that in our vows. R: Okay. You always surprise me Lorenzo. C: Is that good or bad? R: It depends on what you do to surprise me. C: Oh really? R: Yep. I know what you are thinking Christopher. Don't even do it. C: What? Don't even do what Rita? R: You know what I'm talking about. C: Oh. Okay. (He's got a clueless look on his face). R: You really don't know do you? C: No Sam. I don't. Will you kindly fill me in? R: You had a look on your face like you were going to say something that I wouldn't like. C: You know I'd nevah do anything like that. R: I know. I just had to warn you. C: You know earlier when we were talking about Brenda and Jax? R: Yeah. C: How did you and Bren meet? R: Oh. Her dad had a house next door to the Lance's. We aren't that far apart in age, so we became fast friends and then one day when Tom and Sue died, I was just going off to college and I lost track of her, until just the other day. C: What was her dad like? R: He was a real jerk. Julia, her sister, was his favorite. He just pushed Bren aside and didn't care about her. C: Why did he do that? R: Because she reminded him of her mother. C: Now I can see why you and Bren are so close. I guess she came over to escape him huh? R: Yep. I didn't like him either. I'd only seen him once or twice and everytime I saw him, he was yelling at Bren. -------- Back at Jax and Brenda's.... Chris and Rita just walked in. B: Hey guys. R: Hi Bren. Hi Jax. J: You guys have fun today? R: Yeah. We just stayed at the park for hours and just talked. B: I was about ready to call out the troops to come track you two down. Rita, Cassy called. She sounded awful. R: Yeah. When we talked last night all she did was cry and listen. J: She must've been heart broken. R: Jax, you have no idea. From what she's told me, it's awful. B: I would think so. Loosing a baby isn't fun. R: I know it. B: What do you mean Rita? R: Bren, can we talk alone. There's something major I need to tell you. B: Yeah sure. We can go into my bedroom. They walk upstairs. Brenda sits down on the bed. B: Come sit Rita. Rita sits on the bed next to Brenda. Rita takes a deep breath. R: Brenda, what I'm getting ready to tell you might be shocking. B: Okay. Rita, you know you can tell me anything. R: Okay, well you know right after Tom and Sue died I went to college right? Brenda nods. R: Well, I met this guy who was such a jerk. Anyways we went out on a few dates, and one night we got so drunk that we made love. Anyways, a few weeks later I found out I was pregnant. I told the jerk and he's like "Oh good luck." So, I got really mad. This guy didn't want to take the responsibility of a baby, so he just forgot about it. Three months into the pregnancy, I miscarried. So that's how I know what Cassy's going through. (Both of them are near tears) B: Why didn't you tell me yesterday? R: I wanted to see if Cassy was okay and you had so much on your mind yesterday. B: I know. But still, you could've told me something like that. Have you told Chris yet? R: Yeah. Last night. We stayed up talking for a little while and the subject just came up. I really wanted to tell you yesterday too, but you and Jax were already asleep when the subject surfaced. B: Well, what did he say? R: He told me that the jerk is gone and that I have him now and nothing is going to make him stop loving me. I told him about that promise you and Jax made to each other. B: The one where nobody leaves? R: Yeah. We are going to add a promise like that into our vows when we get married again. B: Really? When's the wedding going to be? Rita shrugs. R: Hopefully soon.
