Chapter 18: Fake Baby

Chapter 18: Fake Baby

   I wake up that morning to have rain pelting my window. It was a rainy day, so I decided to just wear something causal. Staring out the kitchen window, I just look around. The window was being covered with little droplets of water and the ground was going to be mushy when I got out there. I silently prayed that I did not fall down in the rain.

    "Morning." My dad says as he comes in to drink his coffee. "Hey Dad."

    He pats me on the back, "Be safe out in the rain." I hug him  and my mom goodbye on the way out. I pull my umbrella out and get in the car. Driving off, the sad slow song playing on the radio didn't help the glumly mode. I frowned at the radio and turned it off.

   Reaching the school, I park in my usual parking spot. I get out and watch as a new car pulls up next to me. It was a red jeep, with tinted windows, so I couldn't see who was inside. I ignore them and continue on my way to class. Walking to my locker, I see Aiden waiting there. "Are you waiting for me?" I asked. He sees me and smirks, "No, I'm waiting for Willow and Wyatt." He sounds annoyed when he says those names. "Well, are they your friends?" I suggest. He shakes his head, "Sort of, they are old family friends." Just as he says that two blondes come over. One was a girl and the other was a guy, they looked closely similar so I assumed they were twins. "Who is this Aiden?" The girl asked. He glares at her, "Nia, Nia this is Willow," He points to the girl. "And this is Wyatt, they're twins." The girl smiles at me, while the boy just stares. Alright...he's a creeper.

    "Well it's nice to meet you both; I have to head to class right now, I'll see you around." I say goodbye to them and wave at Aiden. "See you in third hour." 

     First hour passed quickly, Bronx talked about him and Kieran, and how he really likes her. I smiled at him the whole time, I was really happy for him. In the class the teacher assigned us a paper that we had to do with a partner. We had to make up a story and each person has to create a part. I picked Bronx as my partner and we decided that he can come over after school to work on it.

   By third hour it was still raining outside. I go in the class and see only see the girls in the classroom, there were no guys.  April wasn't in this morning, but she texted me in first hour and said she was going to be late for a doctor's appointment. I sat down in my seat and weirdly looked around.

Where was everyone?

Seconds later, all the boys showed up, carrying boxes, in their hands. Mrs. Xavier directed them to place them on the back tables in the room. "Alright, thank you to all of you gentlemen." She thanks all the boys and they return to their seats.  Aiden was the last to come in with a box, and he winked at me as he walked past our table.

     He seemed to be in a better mood than this morning. That was a good sign.

     "The boxes that the boys helped bring in are the babies. The babies came with items, such as clothes and diapers. They have infant simulators, it will cry all day and night, you will have to feed, burp, rock, and change the baby as if it was real. It has a wireless ID to ensure that you are caring for it. So I will know if you don't, don't think I won't. Because you will fail, it will also record how long it is unattended. If you leave the baby out in the rain, cold, or hot weather it will record that as well," She stares at everyone in the room intensively. "If you do anything to harm the baby, or don't take care of it. You will fail this semester, and it will be hard to make up that grade. So do not fail. Take care of the baby, and love it like it is your own." She turns around and tells a student to help her unpack the babies.

     "Give the ones that look multi-racial to the interracial pairs," She directs him. "Which ever partner's first name comes first in the alphabet determines the gender you get. A-K gets girls and L-Z gets boys."  Since Aiden's name comes first in the alphabet, we get a girl. He comes to our table and hands me the fake baby girl. I look at, it had brown eyes and light skin like she said it would. Aiden leans over my shoulder and looks at it too. "This is weird. I feel like we're in the hospital and you just gave birth." He jokes. I look at it and shake my head. "That is so weird."
