"Congratulations, you're going to have a healthy baby girl."
Becca's fingers tapped against the examination table she was sitting on. The older woman who ran the free health clinic turned the sonogram machine so Becca could see.
Yeah, there was definitely something moving on the screen, which meant there was something moving inside of her.
What was she supposed to do? She was a wanted convict and a patient at an insane asylum. How the hell was she supposed to take care of a kid?
Well, if you hadn't been careless and actually "played it safe," you wouldn't be in this mess, Becca's conscious chided her.
Her conscious had a really annoying voice.
Also, what was Jonathan going to say? A lover of children he was not.
Becca thanked the woman and left the clinic through the back door.
"Shit," Becca muttered as she wandered towards home. "Shit, shit, shit." Well, it couldn't be too bad being a mom.
In fact, the more Becca thought about the baby growing inside of her, the more she liked the idea of a daughter. The only problem at the moment was thinking of a way to tell Jonathan. She kept walking and didn't even notice the shadow following her until someone lunged at her and she landed face first onto the pavement. Becca blinked several times to clear the spots from her vision the she stood up on shaky legs and turned to face her attacker.
It was Robin. Becca rolled her eyes and took what she and her roommates called her "ass-kicking pose." What do you want?" She asked impatiently.
"I want revenge!" He growled before lunging at Becca, who dodged him and made a move to fight back but he turned and grabbed her then flung her to the ground.
"Revenge for what?! Becca asked incredulously. "What have I ever done to you? Well, except for a few minor injuries, but there wasn't any serious damage!"
"It's your fault!" Robin yelled at her. "What happened with Angela was your fault!
"Okay, what the hell are you talking about?" She looked around as she got back on her feet. "Speaking of which, where is the little whore? She usually follows you around like a bitch in heat," she spat.
"Don't play dumb," Robin shot back. Becca was about to say that she hadn't spoken to "Angela" for months and that the stupid cunt could go jump in a river for all she cared.
She never got the chance Robin had lunged towards her again and kicked her in the stomach.
Becca gasped in pain and fell to her knees. She squeezed her eyes shut as tears welled up and threatened to spill over. There was a sharp pain in her stomach before she fell forward onto her hands and coughed up a river of blood.
