Back From Hell, She Rises

Synopsis

Three months after I broke up with Brandon, he bumped into me on a foreign street, just as I was vomiting. Crowds passed between us, but he stopped, unmoved, and calmly booked me an abortion for that afternoon. He said, "Amy, I can take care of everything else for you. But this kid? Just like you, not worth my time. I don't want it." Everyone in Haburg knew I was all ambition, no skills. Just a second-rate wannabe like me, trying to reel in Brandon Malone, someone totally out of my league. When Brandon opened the car door for me, I laid a hand on my little belly and looked him right in the eye, flashing a teasing smile. "Who said it's yours?" I shot back.
