Christine slapped my hand away, "Seriously, who digs at themselves like that without feeling any pain?" After saying that, she rummaged through her bag, pulled out an antiseptic swab, tied my hair up, and carefully disinfected the area, "How did you manage this?" "Margaret did it."

I'd been craving it since noon and didn't want her to refuse, so I played up my pity card," "I've been drooling over it all day. Had sbeef stew for lunch and threw it all up. I'm starving." "Alright, let's go for that stew." Christine quickly agreed, then playfully threatened my belly, "When this little rascal comes out, just you watch how I'll deal with him." "What if it's a girl?"
