"I'm not! I can't..." Charlotte Green thought of the child in her belly.
Lately, her emotions had been too erratic, and she had been busy learning the ropes to become a secretary; although the fetus was still stable...

"You can't?" Kevin Cliff sneered.
"No! Not allowed..." Charlotte firmly refused, but his strength was too great, and she couldn't budge him at all.
But the child, the treasure in her belly.
"It's not okay..." She struggled fiercely, her face showing a determination she had never had before.
Kevin Cliff looked into her eyes, which were shimmering with tears, his expression steadied, and then he let her go, sat to one side, took out a cigarette, lit it, and smoked slowly, exhaling billowy clouds of smoke.
