Beth

            Sniffling into the pillows, she wondered if they’d been able to keep the child if things would have been different? Would Davis have been willing to leave with her then, divorce or no divorce? Would J.D. have let her go? Would the daily reminder of her infidelity have made him more apt to grant her the divorce she’d been so desperate for? Would he have recognized what a bad match they were?

He had noticed a thing at the time. Would he have even noticed it wasn’t his child?

Just more questions that would never be answered.

She screamed into the pillow at the unfairness of it all.

Twenty minutes later, exhaustion let her sleep.
