She walked over to a rack and looked at a few. -One word,Huge- she thought sadly. she tried on a small. It was huige for her. why was her life so difficult. She sat on a bench in the dressing room and started to cry.

Gabriella had been at 'Maternity wear and U' for a few hours now, shopping for some larger sized clothing since she was getting closer and closer to her due date in May. It would only be another three months and then she'd be a mother to three children, instead of two. Gabriella stood tall in a changing room behind the bench Erika was crying on. As she looked at herself in a pink striped shirt she heard someone right outside her door crying. Naturally she walked out of the changing room and had the displeasure of seeing her almost sister-in-law crying there on the bench. Gaby took a seat next to Erika, "Oh, Er..." she said symphatheitcally, "Look at you, your a mess." she said in a kidding tone, not to so rude at all.

Erika nodded and said," I have been a mess no lie, I have no Job, no life, and I can't even find clothes in my size." As said these things tears dribbled down her pink cheeks. Erika buried her face in her knees that she brought up to her chest. Her long hair surounded her. She wanted to just give Gaby a big hug and make her worries melt away but she knew and everyone else knew trhat wasn't going to happen.

Gabriella's face was painted in a sincere, sympathetic way as she listened to Erika finally admit that her life was not going so well. "I know Er, but...everything happens for a reason okay? I mean sure you have no job as of now, but hey, we'll go job hunting this weekend. And I know you have a life, it's just crummy right now, but it'll get better, I'm here and Justins here, and were always available to talk, anytime." she told her, "And as far as clothes go, you can borrow my old ones, I'm sure they'll be a perfect fit, I was your size when I wore them, so they should fit." she continued, thinking up these things as she went along. "See, your life WAS a mess, but now it's getting cleaned up, we'll get through this...together." she assured her.

"Oh, God I hope so!" She said turning to Gaby and giving her a light hug. She closed her eyes and thought if Jake. More tears rushed furiously down her cheek.s She wanted just to turn invisable and disapear. She clung a bit tighter to Gabys shirt and sighed. Her stomach was doing backflips and she wanted to puke. But at the same time she felt sad and lonely, she wanted to cry.

Gabriella stroked Erika's hair as she cried on Gaby's shirt. "I know so." she replied calmly, "I know so." she repeated. "It will get better, you'll see. I won't let anything happen to you, I wont allow it. Worst comes to worst you'll live with Justin and I, we'll help you raise your baby and my unborn baby and your unborn baby will be the best of friends. We'll be one big happy family." she remarked, believing that this would be hard, but possible. And every word she spoke was sincere, no lieing or kidding this time.

Erika looked up with a dretched face, It was incredibly pale. She had not eaten anything for ever. She had been faiting. She only ate wqhen her stomach was killing her. She knew she would kill herself and the baby if she continued but she couldn't stop. There was somthing wrong with her.

Gabriella stood up and examined Erika, "You look so fragile, so pale and so...don't take this the wrong way, but...when's the last time you ate?" she asked her as she realized that Erika had a possible eating disorder, not only was she hurting herself, at this rate her unborn baby wasn't getting any much nourishment either. Put two and two together and the result is dire.

erika thought and said," Two days ago i had a burger but i couldn't finish it!" She stood p and asked crying," What is wrong with me..." She dropped to her knees as more and more tears rushed to her eyes. In saddness and in pain. The baby was screaming in her stomach and she didn't feel good.

Gabriella looked at her worriedly. "Why couldn't you finish it?" she asked as she knealt down to the best of her pregnant ability next to the sick and helpless Erika. "We need to get you to the hospital...." she told Erika.
Oh great, a hospital. The place Gaby hated most, and here she was, about to take Erika there. Erika, her almost sister-in-law with eating problems. Fun... No, not really. This was very dreadful in Gabys eyes. Nothing good has come from the hospial since the birth of her twins.

"And you think I like hospitals?" Gaby replied, knowing that Erika had some nerve to freak out on her, when she knew how sensitive Gaby was on the horrid hospital topic. 'Okay Gaby, calm down. Be rational. No time for anger.' she told herself, taking a deep breath. "Erika, I don't like hospitals either, but look at yourself. You haven't eaten, because you can't eat. You gave yourself an eating disorder. Not only is this hurting you, it's also hurting your baby. Just look at yourself, a pregnant woman should not be so slender. I mean, just look at me. I'm a cow for peets sake!" she replied, sitting Erika back down. "This is how you should look!" she remarked, using her finger to point all over her body. "We need to get you and your baby help. If not for me, do it for your innocent baby. Don't let it suffer. Don't let yourself suffer. Please." Gaby replied, calm and soothing, and rational.

Erika felt retarded. how did she let herself do this? Was it because of Jake? Was it because she was envious of Gaby, Justin, and everyone who had someone to live for. She looked up at gaby and said," I-- Am sorry..." She looked down feeling she let everyone down. She felt more tears rush down her cheek. She shook her head and said," Do... Whatever it...takes." Her heart beat got slowly and deeper. She sighed and looked up. Her minds came to a song called,"Too Much To Ask". Its the first time I ever felt this lonely I wish someone could cure this pain Its funny when you think its gonna work out. Those words played over and over and over in her head. She wished she could get them out. But she was powerless.

Gaby nodded her head in disappointment. "Erika, the hospital is the only way. You have no other options. Let's go get you an appointment. Are you ready? Don't just say yes. If your truely ready than you submit to being studied with tests, following the doctors orders, and eating. Now I'll ask you again...Are you ready?" Gaby then stood her up and took her hand in pure comfort.
