My daughter was only 14 years old when she and her boyfriend told us she was pregnant — My husband pointed at the door and said, “Get out of my house”... But a few hours later, a terrifying call made her understand that maybe she had just made the worst mistake of her life.

Do you think my dad hates me?

Jake kept telling him no.

But about halfway, Emily suddenly stopped.

He grabbed Jake's arm.

—Jake...

What?

My stomach hurts.

At first he thought it was due to stress.

But then Emily was in pain.

The pain became so intense that he could barely stand.

Jake helped her sit on a bench.

“We have to call someone.

“No,” Emily whispered. My dad doesn't love me anymore.

“Forget what he said. I'm gonna call your mother.

But before Jake could get the phone out, Emily tried to stand up.

He took two steps.

And then his knees gave way.

“Emily!”

It collapsed.

Jake managed to catch her before her head hit the sidewalk.

I didn't answer anymore.

He panicked.

With his hands shaking, he called the emergency services, crying out for help as he desperately tried to wake her up.

 

 

A few minutes later, an ambulance arrived.

Emily was rushed to the hospital.

Jake went with her.

Doctors immediately began examining her, and one of them quickly understood that the situation could be serious.

The pregnancy was still at a very early stage, but intense abdominal pain and fainting forced doctors to rule out possible dangerous complications.

A nurse turned to Jake.

Where are your parents?

Jake was paralyzed.

“They’re... at home.

“He’s fourteen years old. We have to contact them immediately.

That's when my phone rang.

It was 21:17.

I didn't recognize the number.

"Hello?"

For several seconds I only heard crying.

Then Jake spoke.

Mrs. Carter?

I felt my stomach shrink.

“Jake?” Where's Emily?

“He fainted.

I got up so fast that I almost dropped the phone on my hand.

What?

We are in the  hospital. He began to feel a lot of pain and then he fell. They took her and they don't want to tell me anything.

Daniel appeared in the  door.

What happened?

I couldn't answer him.

Jake was sobbing.

Please come. The doctor said they need their parents.

Daniel’s face changed immediately.

A few seconds later we were already in the car.

I've never seen my husband drive in such fear.

I repeated the same questions over and over again.

Was he conscious?

I don’t know.

Did Jake tell you what happened?

“I told you everything he told me.

Then Daniel was silent.

At a traffic light, he suddenly muttered:
