"Is that a..." said tom shocked

"A baby, yes" said Zoe

Nick looked at Zoe, and was angry at her for saying anything, nick stood up still holding Miriam's hand

"Is it mine" said tom

Miriam could hear toms voice getting angrier, and clinched nicks hand

"Are you seriously asking that question" said nick to tom

Nick stood up

"Your the one that raped her" said nick pushing him out of the cubical into the polices arms

"How far" said tom not denying anything

"Four and a half months" said nick "not that you will ever be seeing the baby"

Miriam was under orders by nick that she was to rest up for 2 months, 2 days before the 2 months were up Miriam phoned nick.

"So when am I coming back then" she said down the phone

"Miriam your 6 near 7 months pregnant, that and on account of your age you should really just be resting" said nick

"You don't know what age I am" said Miriam laughing down the phone

"No" said nick "but I know you're too old to be having a baby"

Miriam laughed

"What about I stay strictly on paperwork" said Miriam

"Think about what the staff is going to say when they see you walk in, the size of a house" said nick

Miriam laughed "you always did think about the negatives didn't you" she said

"Ok" said nick "I will see when you can come in, I am in the middle of trying to find another doctor"

"What about Dylan" said Miriam?

"Do you think he would be up to it" said nick

"Gave him a call" said Miriam

Miriam set the phone down but 10 minutes later there was a knock at the door, Miriam got up and answered it, and it was nick

"So did you phone him then" said Miriam

"And hello to you as well" said nick walking in

"All I want to know is when I can get back to work" said Miriam

"You always got down to business, didn't you" said nick

"That me" said Miriam

Miriam threw herself on the sofa

"Well you're not getting any smaller" said nick

Miriam laughed

"Its called pregnancy" said Miriam

"And that precisely why you shouldn't go back to work" said nick

"Nothing is going to stop me" said Miriam

"I would believe that" said nick "Dylan's starting tomorrow, you can start on Monday"

Miriam smiled

Dylan started work the next day

"Where Miriam" said Dylan to nick

"Off on leave" said nick "she will be back on Monday"

"Oh" said Dylan

"Can I ask why she is off" said Dylan

"Personal reasons" said nick

Dylan wasn't sure what nick ment, but was looking forward to seeing Miriam
