The shift started well, tom was working with a child who had been in a car accident, and Sam was in cubicles. On Sam's break Tess found her.
"Sam wanna do that test now?" she asked heading towards her office.
"Yeah I will do. I'm on a break now, and tom is working so he won't find out," Sam said as she followed Tess into to office.
"Right you know what to do, go pee on the stick and bring it back. The results are 99.9 percent accurate. Good luck Sam,"
And with that, Sam took the pregnancy test and put it into her pocket.
As she was walking in the direction of the bathroom, tom caught her.
"How's everything going darling, seen Iain yet?" He asked her.
"No, but he's on shift now, and I think Fletch is trying to hide from him. He looks like he is going to punch the lights out of him!"
"Well, keep away from him babe! He's trouble,"
"I will do no I need the loo, and you need to get back to work! I love you," Sam said as she blew to a kiss to tom and went to use the pregnancy test. Please be negative, Sam thought to herself as she waited 3 mins for it to decide her fate.
Positive.
Oh no, Sam thought to herself. Whose baby was it? She and tom were always safe, but there could be a chance that the condom could have split. Sam hoped this was the case, but it was highly unlikely. And as for Iain, he raped her so it could be his. What was she going to do?
Sam went back to Tess's office and was in a frazzle.
"I take it that you're positive Sam," Tess said.
Sam began to cry.
"I've always wanted children, but not this way," she told Tess who listened patiently.
"I know who you feel Sam, I never wanted to break up a family, but Fletch is the love of my life. And this baby helps. Sam you need to tell tom, he has a right to know. Secrets cause more problems than they are worth,"
"Thanks Tess," Sam said as she hugged her new best friend. "Can I stay in here a while?"
"Of course, take as long as you like," Tess told her. And the two sat chatting for a while.
