  In my bedroom hearing Billy sighing in the bathroom over something... What now? "What's wrong?"

"Please don't take this the wrong way when I say this." Coming out from the bathroom.

"Okay?"

"You can feel bad for some people in your life... but I don't want you to feel bad for this girl that you and I know nothing about. I know I said that she is an adult and make up her own mind. Or it could have been you who said it. Either way baby I don't want you to feel bad."

I mean he is right. "I get what you are saying Billy. But you have no idea what it's like to be mind controlled by him.  He would find a way to force you to believe something isn't real. Like zombies, the list could go miles on."

"He must have a real good mind control." Sitting next to me on the bed. "Just try to promise me that, if or when you see her, you try not to feel bad for her."

I nodded, that is fair. Billy's hand went to my belly. Exhaustion came over me as I laid down for awhile. "Do you think that they will let him out even though there is evidence that does prove him guilty?"

"I would hope not. But the law enforcement is so fucked up, that I really hope he wouldn't." Massaging my head as it was on his lap now. "Just close your eyes, try to think what you feel on what gender is our baby."

"I kinda hope it's a girl. What about you?" Slowly going to sleep.

"A healthy baby."

"Yes that. But what would you like it to really be?"

"Hmm, as much as I'd be okay with a girl. I kinda hope it's a boy."

Hmm I get it. To show his dad that he is going to be a much better father than his own dad was. Speaking about that. "Max said that your dad left soon after you did."

"I figured he would."

"You know we should have Max come over. I know the two of you didn't get along. But maybe since we are going have a baby maybe it would be nice to make up."

"Why? We're not blood. And if my dad left, that means I don't have to worry about that shit bird anymore."

"Billy." I sorta warned him as I was tried. "Really after what the two of you been though, your just what going to dump her?"

"Well.. no. But there is no need on wanting to see her or spend time with her."

"Billy that isn't fair. That's not her fault that your dad left. The two of you spent a decade with each other. I'm bound for sure that the two of you had some what of a good time." Billy didn't say anything. I left my head up and looked him in the eye. "For real?" Oh he was dead on serious. "So let's say that the two of us break up. And what... Your going to leave our kid hanging?"

"I'm not going to do that. I'm not my mother."

"You're right your not. But from this it sounds like it. I'm not saying that you two have to be best friends now. What I am saying at least you can say hi to her and see her. Even you can tell her that she's-"

"Max isn't going to be an aunt to my child."

Now I'm sassy. "And why not?"

"Because, my dad didn't with them. And she isn't blood."

"Max can too be an aunt to this child of she wants to be." I'm so mad at you Billy. Shaking my head. I got up. "I'm taking a bath until it's dinner time." I could fall asleep in the tub and not even care.

"Your being stubborn."

"And you're be an ass Billy." Slamming the door as I stood in the bathroom. Hearing him mumble about this and that as he goes down stairs. "Talking about being unfair." I started the bath. Taking my clothing off as the hot water felt nice. It wasn't too hot. Nor cold. My head gently hits the wall. Closing my eyes, I did fall asleep. I felt safe which is odd.

Loud BANG BANG in the door. "Tory?" Billy in the other side of the door.

Squinting my eyes as the bathroom light was on. The water is now cold. Began to rub my eyes. "I'm getting out." I shouted. Getting out I put a robe on and opened the door. I could still sleep if I wanted too. My body felt relaxed.

"Don't you look like you've been hit by a train." I glared at him so hard that he felt it. "Kidding, just kidding." I picked out some clothing to wear. "I talked to Max."

After our fight, that you were never going to speak to her. This couldn't have gone well. "How did that work out?"

"I asked her if we could meet up tomorrow."

"Really? What did she say to that?" Heading back to the bathroom to change.

"She wants too." That sound like, 'are you happy? Can we move on please? I did what you told me to do.', kind of body language that I saw before shutting the door.

"Good." Shutting the door. Nope sorry, you won't be seeing me naked for awhile. Unless if I get drunk.. I read somewhere that woman can have sex while they are at eight months. Wouldn't that hurt?

"You know you don't have to change in the bathroom. I have seen you naked."

Steve head was in the door way. "Ew. I'll come back later."

After I was done changing. I said to Billy. "You have to earn that privilege back." Then looking at Steve. "Shut up Steve." To be fair I wouldn't want to hear that coming from Laurie's mouth as well. If I came in like Steve did, I would said ew too.
