100 Day Story: Day 06

That wasn’t the way
She had expected him to react
She didn’t know if he had her back
But he’d always been
A man of his word
And he’d made a pact
But it was Wednesday
A work day
She had to think about getting to work
Rolling on her back
Knowing she had sealed the future
There was no going back
Back to her and him
Back to them
Back to when
Things were comfortable
In the future
There was hope for better
But last night
He had politely excused himself
Hadn’t let her explain
The circumstance
The situation
She glanced over at her husband
Agitation
Was the feeling
Her stomach
Her mind was
Reeling
Wondering if she should
Tell the man beside her
That his offspring
Was growing inside her
Inside her
Were many things
Regret
Among everything
The deadline was passed
There was no way
To have her cake
Among everything
Was this sense of loss
Pain
And she touched her stomach
Again
She looked beside her
And resigned herself
To her situation
Money wasn’t an issue
But she got up anyways
Because her job had become
Her last escape
Independence
Motivation
