Chapter 14

Tammy's POV

"So now what do we do?" I ask Craig. I'm pacing back and forth worried about Kenny wanting Kevin's body exhumed. Craig seems too calm about this, but I'm totally on edge.

"We don't have to do anything." Craig replies nonchalantly.

"He's going to have the body exhumed!"

"So what?"

"So what?" I repeat. "It isn't right!"

Craig shrugs. "Let him. There's nothing to worry about."

"I guess..."

He raises his eyebrow. "Is there something you're not telling me?"

"No!"

Craig eyeballs me suspiciously. "Are you sure?"

"Of course!" I smile. "You know I would never keep anything from you."

"I hope hot." He looks at his watch. "I'm going to go get your kids from school...do you mind?"

That works out. "Not at all. I'm going to put our kids down for a nap and then talk to my mom about our plans."

He kisses me. "I'll be back soon." He leaves, but not before giving me that suspicious look again. I look out the window and watch him drive off then I grab my phone and dial a number.

"We need to talk." I tell the person when they answer.

"About what?" They ask.

"Kenny is trying to have the body exhumed."

"So let him."

Why does everyone keep saying that? I can understand Craig, but not this person. "It will ruin everything!"

"So why do you want me to do?"

"I don't know, something!"

"It's going to be fine, don't worry. I'll take care of it."

"You promise?"

"Yes, stop worrying. Besides, I doubt he'll be able to afford that plus it takes time to get a license to do it."

"His stupid ass friends or girlfriend will give him the money."

"Without a death certificate, it might be hard for him to be able to do it."

"I need a Plan B in case he does!"

"I'll take care of everything. Can you meet me later?"

I nod. "Give me about an hour." I hang up. I hate that I have to lie to Craig, but in this case, he doesn't need to know what's going on. Sometimes a woman has to keep some things to herself in order to protect her children…

Red's POV

I'm at the hospital having my first sonogram. I'm 10 weeks today so I get to see my baby for the first time. I still haven't told Kenny so Wendy and Stan came to support me. Wendy is in the room with me while Stan is in the waiting room.

The sonographer just finished showing me the baby and now the doctor is here to do an exam. "Your baby looks healthy so far. It has a very strong heartbeat." She tells me. "Keep up the good work."

"Thanks..." I say barely above a whisper.

"Do you want a copy?" I nod and she prints out a few pictures.

"Aww! Your first baby pictures Red!" Wendy squeals.

"Yeah..." I began to tear up.

"I'll leave you to get dressed. Makes sure you see the front desk so you can make your next appointment." The doctor tells me.

"Thanks, I will." I tell her before she and the sonographer leave.

"I'll leave too." Wendy tells me. I can't help, but to burst into tears. "What's wrong?" Wendy hugs me.

"I wish Kenny were here."

"He could've been." Wendy says as gently as possible.

"I want to tell him, but I can't!" I sob.

"Well as long as he's in the dark, he can't be here."

I wipe my eyes. "I know."

Wendy hugs me again, this time she rubs my back. "You don't have to do this alone."

I take her hand and smile. "I appreciate you and Stan coming with me."

"No problem. We don't agree with you not telling Kenny, but we're here for you."

"Thank you. I'm going to get dressed now." Wendy nods and leaves. I look at the sonogram pictures and I get emotional all over again. There's life growing inside of me. A life that was created with the man that I love and I can't even tell him. My heart is truly broken…

Stan's POV

"Is everything ok?" I ask Wendy as she comes back to the waiting room.

Wendy nods. "She's 10 weeks along and the baby has a strong heartbeat."

"So there really is a baby?"

"Yes Stan!"

"She's still not telling Kenny."

She shakes her head. "I think she'll change her mind soon. It's really getting to her."

"Good. He deserves to know." Just as I say that, Red comes out in waiting room. It's obvious that she's been crying. "Why are you crying? You should be happy."

She wipes her eyes. "I have mixed emotions." Wendy and I stand up and we walk out with Red.

She's making it harder for me to keep her secret. "Just tell Kenny. Why keep stressing over something that's so simple?"

Red looks down. "It's not as simple as you think."

"Yes it is. If Kenny gets mad, it will be because you kept it from him not because you're pregnant." I tell her as I press the elevator button.

"I'll tell him when it's the right moment. I haven't talked to him since he broke up with me."

"That's crazy!" Wendy exclaims. "It's not like you guys ended on bad terms."

"I know, but I'm giving him space to deal with what he's going through. I think-" Suddenly we hear something drop. "What was that?"

"I'll go see." I check around to see where the noise came from, but I come up empty handed. "I didn't see anything."

"We'll talk about this some more in the car. I just got a strange feeling." I nod in agreement. I think I got that same feeling. It's almost like someone was eavesdropping on our conversation. Maybe we're just being paranoid…who knows…
