    Jimmy stood on the balcony, gazing at the stars while cradling a glass of wine. A knock on the door broke the stillness, and he sighed, knowing it could only be Samuel or Austin.

How are you feeling?" the doctor asked with a warm smile."I’m fine, Doctor," Susan replied, her voice barely above a whisper."Do you remember what happened to you?" he asked, and she nodded cautiously."Don't worry, you are perfectly fine, and so is your baby," he assured her, but confusion clouded Susan's features."Baby?""Yes, you’re two weeks pregnant," he announced, and shock washed over her."A... am I pregnant?" she stammered, tears welling in her eyes."Yes, congratulations.""Oh my God!" she exclaimed, joy bubbling forth despite her circumstances."I'll let ev

Don’t you realize this will hurt him deeply?" he pressed."I know, but it’s for the best," she replied."What about your feelings for him? Hiding something like this will..."
