Chapter 5
OH no!
"It's you, isn't it?" Abby asks Neela once she is alone with her.
"What?" Neela responds, confused.
"You're Ray's girlfriend?"
"I don't know..."
"I saw you two hugging." Abby smiles.
"Everyone did!" Neela yells, exasperated. "That doesn't mean I'm sleeping with him."
"Oh my God, you're sleeping with him!" Abby raises her voice. Neela clamps her hand over Abby's mouth to keep her from telling the entire world.
"Stop! Listen, Abby, don't tell anybody. Okay?" Neela begs. "Please?"
"Why? Is this because of Michael?" Abby asks. "Neela, he died months ago. Honey, you have to move on."
"I did..." she sighs, looking at her belly. "I think I'm pregnant"
Abby's jaw drops in shock. "You're kidding, right?"
"No...I wish I was."
"What are you talking about?"
"This is not the perfect time to have a baby."
"Are you kidding me? Neela this is perfect!" Abby smiles and hugs her. "You need this, you need something to hold on to and what's better than a baby?"
"Who is having a baby?" Frank asks, as he and Morris join them.
"You're having a baby?" Morris ask to Abby, who looks at Neela. "You!"
"Shut up, Morris" Neela walks away but he follows her.
"Who's the daddy? C´mon tell me!"
