3 MONTHS LATER
I felt like a whale, at four and a half months pregnant, I was twice my normal size and I still had
four and a half months left. Jack healed faster than expected, he went back to work today. He has been
a tremendous help, especially during my terrible morning sickness, most of it is gone now thankfully. I
had Clara make several new dresses for me, so has made getting dressed way easier. I still have been
teaching my normal days, the kids seem glad. Apparently they don't like Rosemary or Florence as
teachers. I put in a request to the teacher board for a temporary replacement for me when I go on
maternity leave. Jack also requested leave for three month, so when the baby is born I will have him at
home to help me.
I finally was able to get back to work today after three months of leave. The Mounties gave me the
leave without any consequences, since what had happened. I still wasn't able to come up with the
courage to tell Elizabeth what had happened. I know, she deserves to know, but I cant bring myself to
do it. I was ashamed of what had happened. It was my fault that all my fellow Mounties died. I should
be dead, not the Mounties who followed me. I was in charge of a young group of new recruits, we were
on our last training mission, after we were finished it I would have been able to go home. I wanted to
get home so bad, I decided we would go the fastest way to the training course. Little did I know there
was a group of outlaws hiding right where we were passing through. We were out numbered, they had
guns, knives, swords, basically anything sharp. That's how I got all the scratches. If I didn't want to get
home as fast as I could it wouldn't of happened. We would have gone the safe rout, not the fastest. They
would all still be alive, at home with their families like he was.
