Kira sobbed. "Rei, you wouldn't want to destroy a human life that hasn't had a chance to live yet."
"I don't want to bring a life into this world that will cause you nothing but pain. Besides, if the baby knew about this world it wouldn't want to live anyway," said Rei angrily.
"Sure it would pain me to see it everyday, surely we could put it up for adoption," said Kira trying not to cry.
"And have it live its life in misery knowing it was unwanted?" asked Rei.
Kira looked away sadly.
"I know you're against it Kira, but still," said Rei softening.
At that moment, the phone rang.
"Hello," said Rei peeved that someone would call at a time like this.
"Did everything turn out all right with Kira?" asked his father.
"No, she's pregnant and wants to have the baby for heavens sake!" said Rei shaking his head in frustration.
"What? She wants a child that will constantly remind her of being raped every time she looks at it?" asked his dad confused.
"No, she says it's a human life and refuses to get an abortion.
"Then maybe slip birth control pills in her food. That will force her into an abortion," said Rei's father calmly.
"You don't understand, I can't just go against her wishes," said Rei.
"You know what's best for her," said his father.
"Bye," said Rei hanging up.
"Who was that?" asked Kira quietly.
"Dad. Are you hungry?" asked Rei.
"Not really," said Kira quietly. She didn't feel like eating after the days events.
"Okay, do you need anything?" asked Rei.
"Maybe some tea," said Kira quietly.
Rei slipped out to get her some.
Kira sighed. She didn't know what to do. It occurred to her that Rei wanted her to be healthy but she still didn't like knowing the fact he'd destroy such an innocent life. She wondered if the baby would end up like the father. She shook her head trying to remove the thought from her head.
"All we have is artificial sweetener so it might taste funny," said Rei handing the cup to her.
Kira took a sip. "Yes it does taste kind of weird. I'm tired. I haven't moved all day yet it's been exhausting."
"That's emotional exhaustion," said Rei quietly.
"I know," said Kira quietly. "I think I'll take a nap."
Rei smiled and nodded. Kira heard him curse under his breath. "Damn."
Kira yawned and fell into another frightful sleep.
