Chapter — 40 Weeks
"I'm Fucking Done."
06:18 AM — Full Term
Leah woke up angry.
Not ordinary angry.
Full-term, uncomfortable, exhausted, hormonal, don't-even-look-at-me angry.
She rolled onto her side and stared at Lilly.
"I'm done."
Lilly opened one eye.
"Morning."
"I mean it."
"I know."
"I can't do this anymore."
Lilly pushed herself upright.
"What's wrong?"
"Everything."
Leah gestured dramatically at herself.
"My back hurts. My hips hurt. My ribs hurt. I can't sleep. I can't walk properly. I can't breathe properly. I have to pee every five fucking minutes and—"
She suddenly stopped.
Her face changed.
"Oh."
Lilly was instantly out of bed.
"Bucket?"
Leah nodded.
She barely made it to the bathroom before she was sick.
Again.
After weeks of it finally easing, the vomiting had suddenly returned during the final stretch.
Lilly crouched beside her, rubbing her back.
"Oh, baby."
"I hate this."
"I know."
"I thought we were finished with this."
"So did I."
Leah wiped her mouth, eyes watering.
"I just want him out."
Lilly smiled faintly.
"Noted."
"Today would be great."
"Also noted."

08:00 AM — Kitchen
Leah shuffled into the kitchen wearing Lilly's oversized hoodie.
Ash immediately followed.
He'd become even more attached to Leah during the pregnancy.
Every time she moved, he moved.
Every time she sat, he was beside her.
Leah lowered herself onto the chair.
"I want toast."
Lilly put bread in the toaster.
"And?"
"Nothing."
"You need something with it."
"No."
"Leah."
"Lilly."
They stared at each other.
Ash looked between them.
Lilly sighed.
"Toast."
"Thank you."
A few minutes later, Leah took one bite.
