Rory walked into her mother's room to speak words that would most definitely devastate her. She had to tell her mother that her studies at Yale may not continue. That she would have to leave to raise a baby. It was what had derailed Lorelai herself just 20 years earlier.
Rory tip toed down the hall and saw her mother dressing for work. Rory was to go back to school later that morning after her mother had left for work. Lorelai turned and greeted a very pale Rory.
"Hey hun"
"Mom, please don't be mad. I'm really really really sorry"
Her mother looked at her and knew that with the third really this was something she should sit down for. As Lorelai sat Rory sat too. Rory looked at her mother and said the words that had echoed through her head for days,
"Mom, I'm pregnant".
