Alright, so Mom kind of gave me a big shocker this morning. She told me my aunt, my dad's sister, the one who lives somewhere in Eastern Europe, and has a ten year old boy already is... pregnant!
When she first came into my room to tell me, my first reaction was screaming joyously and jumping up and down, nearly running over my mother, and then after that first reaction, I thought 'oh, no, what's going to happen now'. I mean, before I moved here to America, I remember her crying all the time and being forlorn when she would visit with my little cousin. And all because of her good-for-nothing husband. He treats her horribly. He kept breaking her heart over and over again and caused her grief. Now, I don't want to accuse him of abuse, since that would be jumping to conclusions, and I learned from past experiences to not even go there. And I'm positive that he wouldn't go as far as to hurt her physically, just emotionally. But I feel as though she deserves better than him and I can safely say that I don't think I'm alone in thinking that. Dad and his brother, my other uncle, also think that she can do better than him.
As you can probably tell all ready, my aunt's husband is certainly not anywhere near the top of my favorite list. But I could be wrong, (and there's a ninety percent chance that I am) things could have worked out since I last saw her seven years ago. I certainly hope so. I hate feeling this way. But my aunt needs someone who will love her unconditionally and, quite frankly, I don't see my uncle as that man... at least not right now.
On a lighter note, the baby is going to be a girl! Yay! I'm so excited to be getting a new cousin.
