Nic's p.o.v
Yet again, we meet in the supply room closet. We shut out the world. "Penelope was her name"
Conrad shares with me. He had helped out another patient of mine that lost a baby girl. Conrad
holds me tightly as I cry. "Our daughter's name was Penelope" Conrad recalls breaking my heart
even more.
Time Period: A Flashback
Situation: The Miscarriage
Nic's p.o.v
Before going to bed, I stare at my reflection. I savor and cherish this image, my beautiful twenty
week old baby bump. Conrad and I didn't plan for our daughter, but we love her anyway. We are
planning to name her Penelope. Anyhow, I wish goodnight to Penelope and myself. Unlike
previous nights, I have a hard time with falling asleep tonight. I am experiencing cramps plus
abdominal pain. There are bloodstains on both my pajamas and bedsheets.
