Regina hated it was Wednesday already. It was time for her to go meet Henry at Granny's before they went over to Dr. Hopper's.
Regina walked in the restaurant to find Henry at a table. "Hi, darling.. How was school?" Regina said placing a kiss on Henry's check".
Henry wiped it off. "Yuck, Mom I am ten years old don't treat me like I am three".
"You will always be my little boy", Regina said crying.
Henry never saw his mother cry before. He felt sorry for her.
"I am going to start to see Archie after your sessions so we won't be getting home until late" Regina looked at her son's reaction. He looked shocked. "Is your homework done?"
"Yes". Henry was happy. "Is Archie helping you to change?" Henry said excitedly.
"No, I don't have to change", Regina said.
"You are evil and I want you to be good", Henry said taking his mother's hand. Regina pulled away.
"I am a good person and I don't have to change". Regina changed the subject. "Get your bag we are leaving".
Henry's session took only a half hour. Regina gave Henry her IPad to play on until she was through with her session.
Regina handed Archie a takeout dinner from Granny's. "I knew you didn't get a chance to eat so I brought you something".
"Thanks, Regina". Archie was about to go to his chair when Regina stopped him.
"Would you mind if you sat by me?" Regina said.
"Not a problem", Archie said.
"I don't know what to say," Regina looked at Archie with puppy eyes. "Will you help me?"
Archie told Regina that he would ask questions and all she had to do was respond.
"Did you tell the father about the baby?" Archie was curious to find out.
"No, I did not". She wanted to change topics. "Next question".
"You need to tell him Regina". Archie thought carefully about the words that he wanted to say. "Even if you are not in a relationship with the baby's father, he has a right to know". Regina looked at him with sad eyes. "You made this baby out of love".
Regina started crying. She found that her arms were wrapped around Archie.
"I am here… let it out", Archie said.
"My baby wasn't made out of love" Regina said wiping her eyes on Archie's shirt. "I never loved my baby's father". "The reason I made love to him every week was because I was horny".
Archie was shocked hearing those words coming out of her month. He wanted to say "TMI" but she needed to get it all out.
Archie started to stroke her hair. He also gave her a tissue. An awkward silence feel over the room.
"I have one more thing to confess", Regina said blowing her nose. "The father of my baby is dead".
Archie knew the father was Graham. At first he thought that he was a lucky bastard to have slept with Regina.
"Also, I killed Graham". Regina felt so good that was off her chest.
"I think we need to meet every day Regina during this time". Archie started to pour himself a drink. He knew it was going to be a long night.
