CHAPTER 4
Waking to the fact your about to throw up is the enormous down side to pregnancy. I sat bored on the unit in my kitchen as I really had nothing else to-do, nothing to figure out, I was here to stay. With that thought I realised I would never get back to Molly.
Alex stopped again in mid flow interrupted by Holly "Who's Molly?"
On auto pilot Alex answered, "My daughter," Then Alex's brain kicked in "Oh gosh Molly, I forgot about Molly." Holly's eyes looked intent on answers. "Holls you know how I told you about me being shot," Holly nodded slowly as she this in "Well in my old life, I had a daughter and I spent my first three years here fighting, fighting for her and to get home but then something shifted within me, it told me to make a new start and focus on the now."
"So would she be alive now?"
"No actually, not yet she'll be born in 1998," memories ran through Alex's mind. "Do you want me to carry on or have you had enough of my ramblings."
"No, you've had an amazing life or lives," Holly giggled at her remark.

The kitchen unit became extremely uncomfortable so I sat on the floor and then sitting on the floor progressed to lying on the floor. "Knock knock" two lonely knocks came at my door, I assumed it must be Luigi as he was the only person that knew I was here. I gingerly opened the door and peeped my head round.
"Bolls can I come in, we need to talk," Gene didn't wait for my answer he came in anyway. "I been thinkin', like this note said," Gene handed me the note, I looked at it, it was my discarded note.
"I threw this away," I looked at him with a shocked expression on my face.
"I know but I picked it up by accident, but that's not important we need to talk," He sat us both down on the settee. "Look Alex I believe you, why would you lie."
I thought to myself for a minute running dates through my head, how could I have became pregnant since after the honeymoon since after I started my plan we had been too busy. "It's a honeymoon baby," I thought out loud.
"What?" Gene's face was confused by my words.
"I conceived on our honeymoon," my tone was flat.
"What difference does it make?"
"I don't know but I only just calculated the dates in my head."
"Alex," his hand was awkwardly on my stomach. "Um we can make the best of what we've been given, can't we?"
"Yeah Gene, Thank you."
"Is that it Mum?" Holly spoke.
"Well that was the first time."
"The second time did you leave me in a shopping trolley?" Holly giggled her sweet innocent giggle.
"No Holls," I said as I stroked her hair.
