and,
if
need
be,
a
third
time.
She
would
repeat
the
procedure
as
many
times
as
it
took
to
get
pregnant
whatever
the
cost.
Thanks
to
the
trust
fund
her
father
had
left
for
her,
as
well
as
the
insurance
funds
that
had
been
left
after
all
the
burial
expenses
had
been
taken
care
of,
she
could
afford
making
her
dream
of
having
a
baby
come
true.
She
decided
to
take
a
shower
and
relax
before
fixing
dinner.
Later,
she
would
find
a
comfortable
spot
on
her
sofa
to
sit
and
prop
her
feet
up
on
her
coffee
table
and
enjoy
a
good
book.
She
tried
shaking
off
the
lonely
feeling
that
she
suddenly
felt.
Lisa
had
a
date
with
her
boyfriend
Andrew
tonight,
which
meant
she
wasn’t
available
for
a
chat.
She
tried
not
to
recall
that
this
time
nearly
a
week
and
a
half
ago,
she
had
been
in
New
Orleans
with
Storm.
Nor
did
she
want
to
think
about
how
much
she
had
enjoyed
his
company.
Of
course,
the
time
they
had
spent
in
bed
had
been
great,
but
there
had
been
more
than
that.
She
had
discovered
a
fun
side
to
Storm.
Before
New
Orleans,
she’d
always
assumed
that
he
was
a
really
serious
sort
of
guy.
She
had
enjoyed
laughing
with
him,
talking
to
him,
dancing
with
him,
sharing
food
with
him
and
going
sightseeing
with
him.
He
had
been
full
of
surprises
in
more
ways
than
one.
She
couldn’t
help
but
compare
him
to
the
last
guy
she
had
dated,
Erik
Turner.
Erik
had
turned
out
to
be
an
A-number-
one
bore
and
had
expected
they’d
go
straight
to
her
bedroom
when
he’d
brought
her
home
from
their
first
date.
