"Han I'm calling you for like the thousandth time. I got the baby's gender and I'm trying really hard not to rip the envelope open." I send the voice-mail and shove my phone in my purse.
I tap the envelope against my palm pursing my lips. Patience Valerie. Oh what the hell? Ringing from my bag draws away my attention from the envelope I might have been about to open.
"Finally Dude!"
"Um hey Val? It's Monica." My eyes widen I fumble for my keys.
" I forgot all about therapy I am on my way!"
Her laughter echoed through the phone as she hung up.
It would have taken 5 minutes to get to my therapist but I took a five minute detour to mcdonalds for a milkshake. By the time I signed in I only had half an hour left .
"So you got the baby's gender! Congrats." She squeezed my hand her usual greeting.
"Thanks but now I'm just annoyed. Han hasn't called me back in like 2 days."
"I think your worried."
"Of course I am. I know it a big responsibility to take care of a child but Hans not like that. He won't just give up on a innocent child. He won't give up on me.
"Well you said he's in Tokyo maybe he needs a new phone or something."
I nodded not totally agreeing. Monica crossed her leg sipping her tea.
"How are you feeling."
"How are you feeling?" I countered. She laughed fixing her glasses.
"As you approach your due date those nightmares may only get worse Val. You gotta talk about it."
I settle into my seat rubbing my watermelon sized stomache.
"I thought I was helping everyone. Dom moved on from thinking letty was dead my family was at peace even without me around. I kept letty alive even though she was supposed to be killed and I didn't once blow my cover till the end."
"But you loved him."
"I met men with that kind of power before. He's not like that. He wasn't like that.
"You saw a side to him no one else had?" I nodded
"You see he was angry. They used people like his brother and then they try to make him disappear. Even so, im angry. I'm rage filled angry and heartbroken, and worst of all guilty." Monica listens a somber expression on her face she always took her notes after.
"Its natural to feel angry and heartbroken too, but guilty?Guilty about what?"
"I never told him about the baby."

"Heyyy. I just got out of therapy and I've decided I won't open the envelope no matter how excited I'm getting. I miss you. Please call me back." I ended the voice-mail sadly reaching for my keys. 2 strong arms come around me. One hand is holding my waist the other is holding my screams.
I'm restled away from my car dropping the envelope. My attacker throws me into a van I use my keys to jab his covered face but he puts a cloth over my nose. My vision is blurry and I slump into a deep sleep.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Let me fucking go you asshole!" The man had an Iron grip on my arm as he leaf me through the hospital doors.
All the nightmares, the feelings of something wrong came at me in a flash.
"Look I don't know who you are or why we're hear but my boyfriend will kick your ass!" He ignored me pulling me down another hall. I dropped all my weight to the ground.
