August 2nd

10pm

Jackie was exhausted. She was now 9 months pregnant and she just felt terrible. The Press had swarmed her house like bees around a honey-pot. And the August sun had shone down all day causing a terrible heat. She sat on the edge of her bed. She took some deep breaths before her stomach began to hurt. 

She took a deep breath before calling: "Provi!". 

Provi came in from Jackie's dressing room and bent over to speak to her. "Yes Mrs Kennedy?" Provi asked.

Jackie nodded, showing a quick smile. "Provi, can you call the hospital and tell them it's time?" Jackie asked. Provi was stunned. Surprisingly, Jackie was extremely calm. Provi nodded before dashing to the phone. 

Jackie tried not to get too excited or scared. She panicked when she was in labour with Patrick. Hopefully if she was calm, this baby would be okay. 

"Mrs Kennedy, the paramedics are 5 minutes away" Provi exclaimed, before Jackie slowly got to her feet. "Provi, get the Secret Service to chase the Press away" Jackie said, she hobbled slowly towards the door.

Provi dashed out while Jackie leaned on the sideboard. She looked down at her massive stomach and she spoke to it. "Baby Kennedy. Be brave and be strong. We'll make it through this together".
