Six months later …459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlAS0cJuIU
"Oh, gosh. Nikki, what are we going to do? Your pregnancy is showing already."
"It's going to, Charlotte. I'm already six months along."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ercv1RQM2
She groans.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NKpkqJnoY
"My gosh. You act like you're the father instead of Dracula."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oo4LyoRoN
"I want to be the child's godmother. Please?"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZtkEVKKm6
"Fine. You can be the godmother, but you can't tell anyone at school. If I want them to know, I'll tell them. Got it?"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzToB0YYmIS
"Yes, Nikki."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFK0hrh9Lj
"Good."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJyOkV1gb5
We get to school and go to our lockers. While we're getting our things, Charlotte says,459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IpxBm12LL
"Oh, hey. I've been meaning to tell you something."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtiMiuX4Ii
"What?"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAlYMaLUrv
"It was said on the news over the summer that the, um, history teacher from last year died of some sort of disease or something. So, we have a new history teacher."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Y60hpBIuz
"You're kidding. So I'm going to have to introduce myself? That means I'm going to have to stand at the front of the class, and everyone's going to find out that I'm—"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5oEL6PAuu
"Shh! Be quiet!" She sighs. "Oh, and his name is Mr. Balaur."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaAKy6boDG
"Mr. who?"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DTbo6s6sB
"Mr. Balaur."
"Oh, God. Do you realize who that is?"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbejp2hMXp1
"Is it really? You've got to be kidding me." She groans. "And more than likely, everyone's going to have to introduce themselves so he can 'get to know us'. That's not good. He's going to figure out that you're pregnant. And the bad thing about it is we have him right before free time. He's also your free time teacher, too, isn't he?"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQNULIMw5y
I nod slowly and sigh. "Yes."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj3WReJEpm
"Oh, no." She moans. Then she gasps. "I have an idea. We can go outside for free time. The doctor said you need the fresh air anyway. For the baby's health."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1D26p9f1N
"But what if he tells me to stay behind after class? Or if he has outside duty during free time?"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHarPL1oAtX
"Well, we're just going to have to hope for the best then."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs76s2EE7Jo
Later, I meet up with Charlotte to walk with her to class and as I'm waiting for her, he walks by and sees me. He starts walking over and I freeze. What do I do, what do I do? Ah-ha! I glance up and quickly dash into the classroom I'm waiting outside of. I glance over to the door and to my dismay, he's coming in here with some papers. Oh, shoot. Suddenly, I spot Charlotte.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPYyLM1nPk
"Charlotte!"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rUEbnPEnH
She looks over and sees me. I rush over to her, dropping a pencil. I groan. She quickly picks it up and hands it to me. She gets up and sees him. I hide behind her, picking up her things. He looks directly at her.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmy7aH8QnD
"Oh, hi Mr. Balaur."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAYLFJgFN5
"Ah, Charlotte. Hello. Do you know where Mrs. Filmore is?"
"Oh, she should be coming back from the printer soon."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡush9DnV9EM
"Okay." He sighs. "Hi, Nikki."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn7SyhCkWy
I close my eyes and hug Charlotte's things. "Hi."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9T545prgyA
I shove her things in her bag as he comes over and leans on Charlotte's desk. I zip up her bag and try my best to avoid looking at him. Suddenly, the intercom comes on.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnKxOTnbIt
"When the bell rings, I need Charlotte Hallaway and Nikki Henderson to the office, please. Charlotte Hallaway and Nikki Henderson to the office. Thank you."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14C0T0zneG
The bell rings and I try to stand up. I fall and he—he—helps me up.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzRNtPB9Lq
I smile half-heartedly. "Thanks." I look at Charlotte, who is staring intensely at him. "Uh, Charlotte?"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDctLRfT7cp
"Oh. Sorry." She picks up her bag and glares at Mr. Balaur. He returns the glare and we go to the office. We get to the office and to my delight, mom's there.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdu9pK9AA6
"Mom!" I rush up and hug her.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIFZb7qUPP
She puts me at arm's length and examines me. "Are you alright? Did anything happen? Are you feeling well? Is—"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMUXD7zJMM
"Mom, calm down. I'm fine, everything's fine."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfNlDNqMbj
"Okay. Alright. Well, you have an appointment today."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDua6UbqZzF
"Okay. Can we please go ahead and get there? Please?"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoRUB12rTG
"Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Can we please just go?"459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlSGb7ETGy
"Alright, fine. We'll go." She looks at the secretary and smiles. "Mm bye."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TmEebQFEN
"Bye." He looks at me. "Enjoy your doctor's appointment."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPU5DUWSX0z
"Yeah. Sure."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7bZNouSu6
We leave.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQ3hzsrEtg
