Simone hadn’t hesitated to seek out Colette, under the pretense of making-up for their previous lost time when they went to the spa.
Her security detail remained at another table, their presence looming, almost threatening, and Simone felt like she could barely breathe properly.
Out of nervousness, she had arrived twenty minutes early, and thus she waited. Doing so, she texted her best friend.
Don’t freak out. Buy 3 pregnancy tests sweetie.
Simone looked at the text, and though she didn’t fear judgment as much as before, she still hesitated for a moment there before hitting send.
Colette’s response was a devil emoji, and Simone felt herself lighten up immediately. She sipped on her lemon juice, which served to suppress the nausea bubbling up inside her, and simply waited.
Before long
