, so she was part of him.
    Fifteen minutes later, the Nurse came in the waiting room, “Sir you can go see her now .”
    He walked into the room. Kay was crying. He went over and grabbed her in his arms. “Everything is going to be ok. Our baby will be ok,” he whispered.
    She looked at him. “Our baby.” She had t ears in her eyes . “Maybe it’s a good thing if I lose this baby. He doesn’t want it, and my life would be much easier.”
    He tried not to show how much what she said got to him. “What? Who gives a fuck if he wants her or not? I’m here, and I will be here for her. I don’t ever want to hear you say those words again. You’re not alone.”
    She looked at him. “You know I didn’t mean it. It’s just that...why is this happening to me?” She put his hand on her stomach. “We just felt the baby move. He did this. He wanted this to happen.”
    The doctor came in and looked at both of them, he looked at Jason. “Did you do this to her?”
    Jason looked at his knuckles and could see why he’d thought that. Kay answered the doctor. “No, it wasn’t him.”
    The doctor said. “I have to report it.”
    “I reported it already. ” Kay lied. “ Jason defended me. That’s why his knuckles look that way. It’s not because he hit me. He would never hit a woman.”
    “Your baby is ok,” the doctor said. “When you fell down, combined with the stress of the day, might have caused you to bleed. I’m going to put you on bed rest for a week. Would you like to see and hear the baby’s heartbeat?”
    Before she could say yes, Jason answered for her. “Yes.” The doctor turned on the monitor and started to put some of the cold gel on her stomach. As soon as he put the instrument on her stomach, the baby’s heartbeat sounded off. Jason smiled from ear to ear. It was music to his ears. The picture on the screen was amazing. He could now make out the baby.
    The baby was moving, and the doctor asked. “Do you want to know what you’re having?” They looked at each other, and she answered. “Yes...”
    The Doctor said , “I’m ninety-nine percent sure it’s a girl.”
    Jason started smiling. “I told you.”
    “Do you want a picture of your baby’s sonogram?” the doctor asked.
    “Yes, I do,” Kay, answered .
    The Doctor printed the pictures and gave them to her. After cleaning her up, he said, “I’m going to go get your discharge papers.”
    Jason touched her belly and kissed it. “Hey, baby girl, everything is going to be ok.” He looked up at Kay. “Can I have one of those pictures?” he asked. She picked one up and handled it to him. He pulled out his wallet and placed it in. He put his hand in his front pocket and pulled out is cell phone. It was one a.m. in the morning, but he called John to let him know he was taking a few days off.
    “What are you doing?” Kay asked. “You don’t have to do that.”
    “I know; I want do.”
    “W hat about Kimberly?”
    “What about her?”
    “What will she say?”
    He went over to her, held her hand, and said, “She’ll have to deal with it. I won’t leave you alone.” He stared into her eyes. “By the way, you’re moving in with me for the week.”
    She looked at him. “No, I can take care of myself.”
    “No is not an answer. You should know that about me by now. Kay, why won’t you ever accept help? You don’t always have to handle things by yourself. I’m willing to help you. It doesn’t make you less independent.”

    They drove over to her house to pick up a few of her things. He knew he had to talk to her about what had happened between them. It felt good... her soft lips pressed on his, the taste of her sweet tongue. H e helped her back into the car; he jumped in and smiled at her. She smiled back. He loved seeing her smile. He knew she wasn’t happy about staying with him, but she would just have to deal with it.
    She looked at him. “Are you sure about this?”
    “Yes”
    “Kimberly.”
