My clothes won’t cover the bump.

...Are you... pregnant?

[candysgirl]

... Yes.

[mia_j]

Oh. Who's the dad?

[candysgirl]

I... don’t know. There’s missing time. Don’t worry, it’s not your friend.

[mia_j]

Missing time?? Now you sound like Janie. Do you want the baby?

I wasn't worried it was Alex.

[OOC: Narrator voice: She was worried a little tiny bit.]

[candysgirl]

I had a situation, but everything is better now. I’m turning my life around. [Cassie speaks very carefully]

Have you ever wanted something, but it didn’t come how you wanted it? I really do want a family one day, but not like this.

[mia_j]

I know.

Yeah, I get that. Whatever you decide, we're here for you.

I mean, to a limit. I don't know the first thing about babies. It's not like I can hold one or anything.

[candysgirl]

Alex will probably insist that I hire nannies. He’s helped a lot, Mia. I think he saved my life and he refuses to take anything in return.

You, Alex, and my doctors are the only people who know [Cassie might be wrong about that. Her baggy clothes really aren’t concealing much]

[mia_j]

You don't have to if you don't want to. It's your kid.

Yeah, Alex is like that.

[candysgirl]

It’s probably for the best, but I still have time to decide.

I drank too much at a party and he made sure I got to a hospital. Another time, I went to a party at his house and he said someone tried to drug me. I think he may have given that young man a split lip.

We have an agreement, I stay happy and as healthy as possible, he said that just my happiness, and occasionally saying hi to his family is enough.

[mia_j]

How far along are you, anyway?

I would've done a lot more than give him a split lip. Alex let him off easy.

It is enough, for him.
