Living in our lie

Chapter 8

Timothy's mother had taken them shopping. They were acting like children in the store.

"Tag!" Timothy screamed and touched Jude.

Jude laughed and chased after him.

"Timothy and Jude!" His mother snapped,

"Get some clothes or we're going home."

"That's so much better." Jude said as she walked out of the bedroom in a floral dress.

Timothy's mother said in the kitchen smoking a cigarette.

"So when were you guys going to tell me about Jude's pregnancy."

"What?" They said in unison.

"It's pretty obvious. Look at her dress she's wearing."

"We were going to tell you when the times right."

"How far are you?"

"4 months."

"Is that why you left?"

"No, I left because we were caught."

His mother's jaw dropped.
