Audrey closed her computer and ran a hand through her hair. It was now or never. She stood up and pulled her father's sweatshirt over her clothes and mussed up her hair again. She glanced at herself in the mirror and made sure the sweatshirt did its very best to cover her telltale baby bump. The excitement she had felt earlier was quickly disappearing and being replaced by nerves.

"What am I supposed to say?" she asked, chewing on her lip as she stared into the mirror, "Hey, Papa, guess what? You're gonna be a granddad!" she sighed and shook her head, "Yeah, how about no." she said running both of her hands through her hair in frustration. The child inside her kicked her ribs and she winced, laying a hand over the spot where her daughter felt the need to abuse, "Easy, kid. Mama's got it hard enough." she said quietly.
