"Good morning Susan, how was your weekend?" "It was good doctor burke. Yours?" Juliets mind sailed to the previous night, being with Jack.
"It was perfect. And for the last time, please call me Juliet." "Right, I'm sorry doc... Juliet." The two women laughed and Juliet patted Susans shoulder. Just then they heard the elevator doors open and from then stepped out Doctor Mendoza.
Juliet felt her heart shatter, she didnt understand why, but she felt so guilty. Mendoza's eyes were watery,dark circles around her eyes, and she had obviously been crying just as much if not more than what Juliet had cried. Mary walked over to Juliet and Susan, completely ignoring Susans presence. Staring straight into Jliets eyes, trying to burn through her. "Mary." "Juliet, may we talk?" "Yes ofcourse." Susan felt the tension, she completely backed away and sat at her desk. "I wonder whats going on? Could this be over Jack? I hope he picks Burke." Juliet walked to her chair and had a seat, Mary was already seated in the chair infront of her desk. "You have to leave Jack alone." "Excuse me?" "Dont try to act innocent Burke. I know what you did.He left me because of you." Juliet looked at Mary straight in the eyes. Not breaking once. "I'm not going to lie to you Maria, yes, Jack and I are together, but we love eachother, we always have." "I have been with that man for a year and three months, not once did he mention you, then one day you show up, and in less than two days im on the curb." "Maria, I'm sorry, I really did not want to hurt you." "I love him Juliet." Juliet was sitting infront of this woman, emotionless. Once again portarying the cold icy woman forced u pon her by Ben on the island. "I love him too." "Juliet, I... I'm pregnant." Juliet icy demeanor broke, it didnt break, it shattered. "wh...what?" Mary looked down at her purse and pulled out a sheet of paper, planting it infront of Juliet face. Juliet looked down and read the paper. In bold font were the words... THREE MONTHS PREGNANT "This... this paper." "One of the doctors here ran the test, I had been feeling sick lately.." Juliet brought her elbows up on the desk and hid her face, hid her tears once again rolling down her cheeks, sobbing into her palms. "It was a dream, It was." "What?" Juliet managed to look up,hold her tears and speak only to say. "I love him... I love him with all my heart." "So do I Juliet, you need to think about Jack, he's going to be a father, his child is going to need a father." "I'll get out of the way."

"Doctor Bur... Juliet. Are you sure your going to b e ok? Are you hungry?"

"No Susan, I'm fine thank you. Please dont less anyone pass."

"Yes Juliet, honey if you need anything, if you want to talk, I'm here."

"Thank you Susan."

"I'm gonna go get you some water and something to eat sugar." Juliet layed her head down and cried into her arms.

Susan was waiting for the elevator but gave up once minutes passed and it didnt arrive. "It must be packed down there." She thought. "I'll take the stairs." She was climbing down the stairs when she passed the third floor door, and heard a familiar voice. It was Mendoza, It was actually Mendoza with Barban. Barban was a young nurse who was incharge of taking blood samples, checking hormone levels, determining pregnancies, she was a bright young lady. Susan was going to stop but was startled by what she heard next. "Thank you so much Diane, If it werent for you that whore would have taken him for sure." "Hey dont stress about it, us young latinas have to stick together, specially here." Susan rolled her eyes at the comment. "Well, I'm never gonna beable to repay it, I know how much trouble you can get into." "no ones going to find out, those fake papers are super easy to do, and when you need the paper saying you lost the baby dont hesitate in telling me." "wow thanks"
Susan walked right past them ignoring both their gazes. Barban looked over at Mary.

"Do you think she heard anything?"

"Who Susan? That old lady is prabably deaf, besides nobody would beleive her."

"Yeah your right."
