Chapter Two
Telling Jonathan
The attack left them shaken all day. They had no choice but to get out of their apartment. They went to a nearby building. They decided to work but all the time they couldn't help but think who would go to the trouble of trying to kill them. But, by the end of the day the mystery was solved. Local miners went on strike and wanted to make a point by killing a senator they thought they might.
In a new apartment Jonathan and Andrea lay in bed once more. The day's events had taken the news out of her frame of thoughts. But, now that she lay in bed it came back to her. Jonathan had just fallen asleep and the chance to tell him gone for today. Unless.
She shook him awake. He stirred but then returned to state of sleep. Her resolve was strong she was going to tell him tonight. Suddenly, she had an idea. In her mind Andrea pictured her news (in her one year as a padawan she had learned something) and throw the message at him. This was enough to make him wake. Jonathan sat there for a moment tying to get the idea. Then, his face broke into a smile.
He started to laugh and said, " Am I decoding your message correctly or did you not just tell me that you are pregnant?"
" Yes, I did and what do you make of it", Andrea said with a cool and wide smile on her face.
He did not answer he just wrapped her in a tight hug and gave her a tender kiss. When he was done he went down and lightly touched her abdomen. She grabbed his hand and put it to where the baby was. They both felt like they could stay like this forever. In that moment they were a new family.
