I can call them up for you if you want.”“That won’t be necessary,” Steph said. “Alright then, take care of yourself dear,” he said.Why was he using dear for her, she thought.

He held the picture from the scan that Steph had given him since the other day. He hadn't opened it since then and had decided to have a look at it now.He dropped the glass of wine that was in his hands on the table next to him. He brought the films out of where it was kept and he stared long into the pictures.He could delineate some parts of the pictures and how curled up like a seed the baby was in it.
