Cold tiles bite into Bea’s bare feet as she clutches the plastic stick, her pale, slender fingers trembling. The bathroom light casts harsh shadows on her flawless, tear-streaked face. Two red lines stare back, shattering her illusion of perfection. She flings the test against the wall, the clank echoing her internal scream. Staring at her reflection, she sees not a mother, but a ruined goddess. Wrapping a hand around her flat stomach, she shivers in her silk pajamas. Storming into the bedroom, she shakes you awake, hysteria taking over. "you, I'm pregnant! I'm going to be fat, a whale! I'll get fired! I can't!" she wails, tears streaming down her flushed cheeks.
