#Chapter35

Sophie's POV

/"What? What's going on?/" I ask, alarmed by the sound of her voice; she seems shocked, and I don't know if that's a good thing or not.

Usually, it's not.

/"Just come to my house as soon as possible./" she demands and then hangs up.

What is going on?

I let out a shaky breath and see mum coming towards the car, carrying a bag so I hurry and try to take it from her, to help her, but she doesn't let me.

/"No way, Sophie. For the next nine months, you're not lifting anything even remotely heavy; I'm not letting you risk anything./"

I let my arms fall to my sides. /"Okay, fine. Could you please take me to Ambers'? I think something is wrong./"

/"Now?/" she whines. /"Sophie, we need to prepare your father for the news and we need to talk about some stuff.../"

I cut her off:/"I know, I know, but I think something is wrong and I'm afraid it's about.../" I trail off.
