Elizabeth walked into her bedroom later that night only to see her grandmother sitting on the bed holding the bottle of pills. "Ju have broken my heart." She said very sternly.
"Abuelita, no-no-no-no-no-no it's NOT what you think."
"I know exactly what I think! What else would jou be doing with a bottle of abortion pills!?"
"Shhh! Keep your voice down."
"Ju have betrayed me Liliácea."
"Abuelita it was an accident!"
"That's what they always say!"
"I was artificially inseminated!"
"Que?"
"Yes, it was a legit accident."
"Did ju take the pills!?"
"No no no Abuelita I would never."
Josefina went deep into thought and started to confess. "When jour mother got pregnant at eighteen, with Jessica and Eric...I told jour father to have her get an abortion."
"What?" Elizabeth gasped and sat down next to her grandmother.
"And obviously he told me no. But it turned out that pregnancy caused a marriage. Which has caused many precious things in their lives. And I thank God every day that they didn't go through with it, because who knows what would've happened if they did. They might not have had ju, one of their greatest prides and joys, their precious Elizabeth-Lillian." She said caressing her granddaughter's cheek, "and one-day Liliácea, that baby will be the most precious things in jour life."
Elizabeth smiled and her eyes welled up, "that was beautiful Abuelita."
"Oh, I know." She said being prideful. Causing Elizabeth to roll her eyes.
"So you're on team 'keep baby'" Elizabeth asked.
"Of course, we need another Corlãrian around this house, That man got lucky, we have good blood ju know, we make adorable children."
"Oh I know, you bring that up every day." —————
Later that day... Elizabeth and Henry came home to Elizabeth's house to find Feeny at the table with her Dad. Briar was also in the kitchen and went over to greet her daughter but whispered in the couple's ears, "morning sickness, I think it's time we let the boat sail." She looked at the kids. And they nodded their heads knowingly.
"Mr.Feeny tells me you've been a bit under the weather lately, are you okay?"
"Yeah, probably just a bug," Elizabeth said chickening out. She was terrified at what her Father might do—let alone spill her secret in front of Feeny—her teacher.
