mirrors, away from me, the sound of his footsteps echoing off the silvered

glass, walls, and floor. Christian . . . I jerk awake. No. He’s going to freak out.

When Sawyer pulls up outside SIP, I leap out and head into the building.

“Ana, great to see you. How’s your dad?” Hannah asks as soon as I reach

my office. I regard her coolly.

“He’s better, thank you. Can I see you in my office?”

“Sure.” She looks surprised as she follows me in. “Is everything okay?”

“I need to know if you’ve moved or cancelled any appointments with Dr.

Greene.”

“Dr. Greene? Yes, I ha一ve. About two or three of them. Mostly because you

were in other meetings or overrunning. Why?”

Because now I’m fucking pregnant! I scream at her in my head. I take a

deep, steadying breath. “If you move any appointments, will you make sure I

know? I don’t always check my calendar.”

“Sure,” Hannah says quietly. “I’m sorry. Ha一ve I done something wrong?”

I shake my head and sigh loudly. “Can you make me some tea?

Then let’s discuss what’s been happening while I’ve been away.”

“Sure. I’ll jump to it.” Brightening, she heads out of the office. I gaze after her

departing figure. “You see that woman?” I talk quietly to the Blip. “She’s the

reason you’re here.” I pat my belly then feel like a complete idiot, because I

am talking to the blip. My tiny little Blip. I shake my head, exasperated at

myself and at Hannah . . . though deep down I know I can’t really blame

Hannah. Despondently I switch on my computer. There’s an e-mail from

Christian.
