Katherine’s povThere was a tap at my door after a few moments and a worried voice. “Hey, it’s me. Need anything? Or should we leave you alone with your misery?”I sniffled. “Come in.”She laughed and entered as she had a large bag of chips and two bottles of soda.She saw me and just kicked off her sandals, climbed onto my bed, cross-legged, and ripped the bag open.“What’s wrong?” She asked in concern. “What are you crying?”“I got fired.”Her eyes widened. "What? But you just started!""They found out I was pregnant." My voice broke on the last word.“You got fired for being pregnant? Wow. That’s a new record in job hunting and losing.”I scoffed. “Yeah.”“People are such assholes. Like it’s a disease or something. You didn’t apply to be a mountain climber, you applied to shuffle papers. What the hell does your belly have to do with that?”I laughed, a bitter little sound. “Apparently everything.”She shoved the chip bag at me. “Eat. Misery tastes better with salt.”I laughed and t

Katherine’s povI stated at the man in anger as his words sat before us in shock.My stomach twisted. “Wha… what are you talking about?” I managed to say, my voice oddly harsh and too shaky.His smile never wavered. If anything, it grew even wider. “I’m not lying to you,” he said. “This job… well we can’t move forward until you decide to do something for me first. I need something and you need something. This is just a way of shall I say… helping each other.”I sighed and hit to my feet. “I’ll see myself out.”Ans with that, I started for the exit as he stopped me with his next words.“You’re pregnant, aren’t you?” He said.I scoffed and turned to him as he was leaning against his seat.“You believe you’re so strong, so self-righteous,” he continued, his voice mocking me. “But you’re not. You’re too righteous to ask for help. Too righteous to realize you can’t do it on your own. You’ll come to me. Soon enough. And when you do…” He shrugged. “…I’ll be here.”Everything went quiet for a

Katherine’s povI stood, smoothing down my blouse. “Good. Then I’ll make sure they regret underestimating me.”I got back home to sleep and I didn’t get enough sleep that night for some odd reason. But it didn’t matter. I was excited to get my revenge against that interviewer. Oh I would relish having to destroy him. For now. I would bide my time.I thought of my brother, how he must have looked lying there in the hospital bed. I thought of my child, so real now and beginning to grow inside me and I knew that I didn’t have any more time for fear. It wasn’t about me anymore.I had to do something with myself, something tough enough to protect them both.The next morning, I put on the only blazer I owned when I left home. It hung a little loose on me and the edges of the cuffs were faded from wear, but it would work. I pulled my hair into a neat bun, put on some makeup to disguise how tired I was.I got to the building as the guards opened the door and the interviewer saw me and smiled

Katherine’s povI got out of the elevator and I looked at the man before me.“Well,” he said, his voice sugary sweet. “Did you come here to beg, Katherine?”I didn’t waver. I turned a little to John, who was standing steady by my side in his neat grey suit, his tie sharp, his glasses gleaming with the lights in the lobby.“This is my lawyer,” I replied flatly.John glanced at the interviewer and managed a curt nod. “Good morning.”“Your lawyer?” He panicked as he wondered what I was here for. “What for? You finally realize you can’t play the game alone?”“Look, im not here for you or anything. I’m only here to make sure my deals go well.”His brows shot up. “Deals? What deals? You don’t even have a job here and you’re here talking about deals.”John stepped forward. “My client, Miss Katherine, is finalizing the acquisition of this company. We’ve already had some preliminary conversations. We’re here to meet with the board. We have done so and it has ended so now we are going home.”Th

Katherine’s povI smiled and looked at Marlin who was still struggling to find any problem with the car.Then I turned to look back at the man.“I’ll buy it,” I told him.The salesman’s grin widened. “Excellent choice.”It took forever to sign all the paperwork. Marlin kept muttering sarcastic comments just loud enough for me to hear, like, “Look at you, boss lady,” and “Can I borrow it when you’re too rich to care?” But under the jokes, I could tell she really was proud. And maybe even more excited than I was.When it was done, when the keys were finally in my hand, I stood outside the dealership staring at the car. My car.Marlin nudged me. “So, how does it feel?”I shrugged. “I don’t know if I’m being honest. It feels weird. This is my first car I’m buying so there’s that.”She laughed quietly. “That’s because you have,” she said. “Anyway, what did you expect?”“I don’t know.”She linked her arm through mine and tugged me toward the car. “Come on, let’s go to the car and drive outt
