"Geoff?" She asked, peeking into the room. "And crash!" Geoff said, dropping the toy car to the ground. She smiled as Brandon erupted in giggles. He was only six months old, and even though he was her first child, she was sure that he laughed and smiled more than twice the normal amount. "Mala!" Brandon exclaimed when he saw her. "Hi baby." She said. "What's up Bridge?" Geoff asked. She was supposed to be getting alone time and surfing while he hung out with Brandon. "Listen Geoff, we need to talk." She said. He gulped. Divorce? Abandonment? Another man?! "What is it?" He asked. "I'm..." She stopped there, too afraid to continue. He waited patiently until she looked him in the eyes and said "I'm pregnant." Both were silent, until Brandon said "Yayyayay." His son seemed to wake him up because he said "Bridge! We can't have another kid! We don't have enough room! Brandon's only six months old, we hardly get enough sleep as it is, and we both have jobs that we have to consider!" She froze, sure this had been one of the what ifs that she discussed with Courtney, but this wasn't a what if anymore, it was a what now. "What do you suggest I do?" She asked barely above a whisper. "Get an Abort-" "Geoff. If you finish that sentence, you might as well divorce me now. The last time I checked, Brandon was once the same size as this baby is now. Would you murder him? No you wouldn't, so don't even think about suggesting that I kill my baby. If you don't want this child, then you are welcome to leave." Her voice scared him. Geoff was comfortable with his soft, sweet, shy wife. This fierce woman with fire in her eyes was not his wife. And that scared him. "Bridge, I'm sorry. Just let me process this, ok?" He said. Another kid. Brandon would only be about one when it was born. Bridgette wasn't going to give it up, and he didn't want to lose her. But another baby... "Babe. I know that you want this thing-" "It isn't a thing Geoff. It's a baby. Your baby." He stood up and said "I'm going to Duncan's. I'll be back." Once she heard the door close, she burst into tears. Brandon crawled into her lap and started crying as well. She sniffed and said "Look Brandon. There's a baby in here." She said, placing his small hand on her stomach. "Baylee?" He said, very confused. "Yes. I have a feeling that it's a girl. You'll have a sister." "Sissa?"
