Audrey twirled her wedding ring around her finger as she looked down at the pregnancy test, impatiently waiting for it to determine her fate.
Her heart was pounding.
What if I'm pregnant, she asked herself. What am I going to do?
The thought of raising a child now, without Egon, terrified her.
The thought of not raising Egon's child at all terrified her even more.
She grew angry as she sat on the edge of the bathtub waiting for the pregnancy test to change.
How dare Egon leave me like this, she cursed. I've just been left here alone to fade away.
Tears began to swell in her eyes, blurring her vision.
She sniffed and looked down again at the pregnancy test.
Two blue lines had appeared.
She wiped her face.
"What does that mean?" she asked out loud, quickly trying to find the instructions from the box.
Holding them up and wiping her eyes again, she read what the two lines meant.
She felt her chest tighten, suddenly unable breath.
She was pregnant.
Pregnant and alone.
