Emma stared at the ceiling of her condo bedroom, the fan blades slicing through the air like a lazy metronome. For the past couple of days, she notice changes with her body. Her breasts felt very tender, swollen, starting to enlarge. Her nipples started to darken and were sensitive to the touch. She was feeling tired and sluggish and was urinating frequently.

Greg had been back from Chicago for two days. He'd pulled her into bed that first night, his hands familiar on her hips, murmuring how much he'd missed her. She'd gone through the motions - spreading her legs, letting him slide into her with that steady rhythm they'd built over years of marriage. But it felt mechanical. No spark, no heat pooling in her senses the way it did with Damari. His touch didn't make her pussy clench anymore - it just reminded her of the routine, the safety net that was starting to feel like a cage.

She lay there afterward, Greg snoring beside her, his arm draped over her waist like an anchor. Her mind wandered to Damari's loft, the way he'd pin her against the exposed brick wall, his thick cock stretching her until she gasped, begging for more. That was passion - raw, consuming. She had fallen madly in love with Damari. With Greg, it was just... comfortable. And that terrified her. How long could she fake it? Dara's words from lunch echoed: "your marriage is fucked." Emma pressed her thighs together under the sheets, a faint ache building from the memory of Damari's mouth on her clit, but even that twisted into worry. What if this numbness ruined everything? What if she couldn't love Greg the way she used to, not with Damari's "I love you" still burning in her ears?

The next morning, Greg left for work, kissing her forehead before grabbing his keys. "Love you babe." She nodded, forcing a smile, as he left. Alone, the condo felt too quiet, the walls closing in. That's when the nausea hit again - sharp, unrelenting, like her stomach was staging a revolt. It was the fourth day in a row this happened. She bolted to the bathroom, kneeling, head over the toilet, vomiting, until her eyes watered. Morning sickness? No, couldn't be. Greg had gotten a vasectomy years ago, after the birth of his third child with his first wife. He'd joked about it once, calling it his "retirement plan." Emma hadn't bothered with birth control; why would she? But with Damari... fuck, they'd been reckless. Raw, intense fucks - he never pulled out, his cum always shooting deep in her fertile pussy. The thought wracked her body with fear, made her knees buckle.

Lifting from the toilet, she made her way over to the sink, rinsed her mouth, splashed water on her face, got quickly dressed, went down the street to the local pharmacy, and bought an in-home pregnancy test kit. Back home, she needed to test herself, but was too scared to do it alone. She grabbed her phone, calling Dara before she could talk herself out of it. "Dara! Please come over! Like - now! Greg's at work!" Her voice trembling with fear, and she didn't wait for questions, just hung up.

Her hands shook as she tore open the package, the plastic stick cold against her palm. She sat down on the toilet and urinated onto the absorbent tip. Dana arrived three minutes later, letting herself in. "Emma? Where are you?," her voice echoing. She heard uncontrollable crying from the master bathroom.

Dara appeared in the doorway, her expression shifting from concern to alarm as she took in the scene. "Emma - what's going on? What's wrong? Why are you crying? You look like hell."

Emma, still on the toilet, extended her arm, plastic stick in hand toward her, crying uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face. "Here Dara - I can't bear to look. I'm not on birth control. Greg had a vasectomy years ago. But with Damari, we were careful, I thought. Mostly. And now...... Fuck. Dara. I missed my period. I'm having morning sickness.

Dara looked at the stick. Two lines. Stark. Unmistakable. Positive. Dara peered over, her eyes widening. "Oh fuck! Emma! You're pregnant!"
