Secrets

Deelia woke up to her phone, she answered it before it woke Roy up. It was Sister Catherine she sounded distraught wanting Deelia to come by the orphanage right away. Deelia quietly got up and got dressed without distubing Roy, she then headed out of his apartment and over to the orphanage.
While driving over there she pondered to why Sister Catherine wanted her over there so badly. Last time she saw Father Joseph he was fine and it didn't sound like it was about him anyway. The children? Always a possiblity, but why would she need her help with the children especailly if Father Joseph was there and well. She parked her car and walked down the rest of the way to the orphanage. The Orphanage had caught itself on fire, not sure what to do she ran right into the burning building.
"Sister Catherine? Father Joseph?" She called out throughout the smokey rooms going from one room to another looking for anybody that might be still inside the building. The smoke grew thicker she walked into one of the bedrooms and noticed it was her old bedroom. Not being able to take the smoke anymore she collapsed on the floor.

Deelia felt someone touch her shoulder, she stirred and and sat up and looked around the room. She was back in Roy's apartment with Roy looking at her very concerned. "Deelia dear are you alright?"
"Yes, just a bad dream I guess."
"Deelia listen to me there is nothing that Bruno guy can do to. You need to learn to stop looking over your shoulder as it were. trust me Deelia we'll get the guy and you can then sleep peacefully without any nightmares."
"Its not me I'm worried about Roy. Its the orphanage."
"What about your brother? You know more than likely Bruno would go after him first before coming after you."
"I don't want to think about that Roy." she said with a frown.
Roy wrapped his arms around her "I know I dont want to think about it either but Dee is the one who is pregnant and Bruno does have a problem with that."

Ryo and Dee woke up that morning, "Dee are up to going over to Aunt Elena's with me to pick up Bikky?"
"If its alright with you Ryo I'll just stay home after the days i have had these last couple of days."
"Very well dee I'll go pick Bikky up and when I get back the three of us can go see Mother Lane. How's that?"
"Sounds good to me." Dee said as he looked down at the ring on his finger.
Ryo smiled and kissed Dee goodbye. "I'll be back in a few hours love." Ryo said as he left.
After Ryo left Dee sat himself down on the couch and turned on the tv. the News was on.
"I am here at St. Benedicts hospital where an explosion has occured on the second floor, taking out the whole room. I've been told the room was one of the operating rooms."
"Any idea how this occured Joanne?" the newsanchor asked.
"No I haven't heard yet but what I do know is that a Doctor was preping stuff for a later operation today. That doctor is now in critical condition,the explosion occured about 9 o'clock last night."
Dee shut the tv off he had heard enough. He then got dressed and headed out the door to the hospital.
***********
Ryo arrived at his Aunt Elena's house. "Ryo!" Bikky said excited to see him. "Bikky why don't you go get your things I want to have a word with Ryo." Elena said.
after the boy left and headed up the stairs, she turned to Ryo "so did you propose to Dee like you told us you would?"
"Well...I yes I did."
"Oh goody!" Elena said excited clapping her hands "so tell how did he react?"
"Well... he was shocked for a long time." ryo said as he bent his head down.
"Ryo whats wrong?"
"Nothing really, he just actually pondered it I would have thought he would say yes the second he saw the ring. He felt like it was more of an obligation i was fulfilling by marrying him. But its not Elena Its not I love Dee. when I told him I was marrying him for that I was marrying him because i love him."
"So what did he finally say?"
"He said yes after I explained it to him he was overjoyed at it which I'm glad for."
"Ryo there is something else I want to talk to you about."
"What is it Elena?"
"I was watching the news this morning and well there's been some type of explosion at the hospital. A doctor was seriously injured they just realeased the name of that doctor. Dr. James Read."
**************************
Dee arrived at the hospital and asked the receptionist about the injured doctor. "Mr. Laytner you have issued a new doctor during the rest of your..."
"Pregnancy. Dr. Donald Turner he will be around shortly.:
Dee really did not like this woman, a doctor in his late forties came by a while later. "Dee Laytner nice to meet you I am Dr. Turner." the man said offering his hand to shake.
"Come we have much to discuss in my office." Dr. Turner said.
Dee followed Dr. Turner down to his office, "Now Mr. Laytner now that we are alone i can speak freely with you. I know how you feel about having a new doctor during your pregnancy I understand whole heartedly. For you see back when they were trying out male pregnancies ten men went through the process but only five of them made it through the whole nine months. One died during operation killing him and the baby. I was one of those children born to a man Mr. Laytner I carry much the same gene as you do. The four of us who survived became in a way outcast from society back then but we became close friends. We became even more outcast when Johnny Morgan got pregnant at eighteen, he was curious about gay men that were rumored about."
"what happened to him?"
"He died at eighteen as the baby started to grow inside of him, He got the crap beat out of him by thugs. The three of us go by and see him at his grave every so often."
"What do the other kids do now?" Dee asked rather curious.
"Emma Parker is a lawyer trying to get it so we don't have to be shun from society and Freddy Johnson is a professor at one of these major universities. But I will tell you this Dee the risk is high, i don't mean to scare you or anything but the chances of a successful birth from a man is slim to none."
"I'm not afraid." Dee said trying to sound bold.
"Well I'm glad to hear that Mr. Laytner, I have never lost a patient Mr. Laytner but then I never had to really deal with a male pregnancy before either but I assure you nothing will happen to you or your baby while i'm your doctor."
Dee thanked the doctor and then headed home. In a way he felt fine but on the inside he was terrified.
