"Macon? Ummm...yes, I'm alright." They both knew it. She was a terrible liar.
"What's wrong?"
"I just don't feel good."
"For how you sound- 'just' is an understatement."
"Okay, then. I don't feel well."
"What are your symptoms?"
"Nausea. I feel uneasy and I'm overheating like mad-"

"I might be pregnant."
