Chapter 28
Saturday night Nora sat at home watching TV, Bo had been called to the station. She stared at the TV, not really watching it. Her mind was on other things. Mostly on the baby and Blake. After their conversation last week Nora was feeling even more worried about telling him that she was carrying his child. She felt awful that he viewed their time so much more precious than she had, she felt so angry at herself for doing this. She should have known better than to get involved with someone else.
“You are so stupid sometimes!”
Then she looked around, great she was talking to herself again. She felt a small hunger pang and headed towards the kitchen. Then she heard a knock. She sighed and went to answer it.

She almost closed the door again when she saw Blake on the other side, but she fought the impulse.
“Hello Blake.”
“Hi Nora, can I come in?”
Nora looked back and hesitated.
“Hi Nora, can I come in?”
Nora looked back and hesitated.
“I don’t know Blake, after our last conversation I don’t know how comfortable I would be when it is just the two of us.”
Blake ran his hands through his hair.
“I know, that is why I am here. Nora I am sorry I put all that on you. I knew you were still in love with Bo when we were together. I should have put a stop to it. I...I just really liked you, and I won’t lie, I still have strong feelings for you. But it isn’t fair for me to hold on to you when I never really had you.”

Nora looked down.
“It’s not all your fault Blake. I should have stopped it too.” She sighed. “Blake, Bo and I have to talk to you, it is really important. Can you come over for lunch tomorrow?”
Blake’s face showed confusion and a little fear.

“What is it?”
Nora shook her head.
Nora shook her head.
“It is something that both Bo and I should tell you.”
“Um, okay. Noon?”
“Yes.”
“You’re not cooking?”
Nora looked up smiling, Blake had a small smile on his face as well.
“Um, okay. Noon?”
“Yes.”
“You’re not cooking?”
Nora looked up smiling, Blake had a small smile on his face as well.
“No, we’ll order.”
“Whew, then I’ll be here. Bye.”
“Bye.”
Nora closed the door behind her. She walked back to the couch as she touched her stomach. Fear was growing inside her as she wondered what tomorrow would bring.
