Chapter 12

"You've got to be kidding me. You're actually pregnant?" Melissa asked. She wasn't prepared for such sudden news.

"Yes I am." Anna answered.

Antonio wanted to run for the hills. Anna's pair of eyes locked with his mischievously and he knew that it was all over for him.

"Anna, well this is very sudden but congratulations. The father must be so thrilled." Melissa said.

"Oh believe me Mrs. Kissle, he's not happy. Actually, he gave me a check so I can have an abortion when I told him that I was pregnant with his baby. He hates me."

"Oh my goodness, what an awful thing to do. Why would he do such a thing?" Melissa asked. She had a soft spot for babies.

"Because he's married." Anna broke down in crocodile tears. Melissa went to her side, rubbing the low of her back and saying sweet things to her to better the situation she let herself got caught into.
