It was a quiet Saturday afternoon. The sun had just slipped behind the clouds, casting a soft light across the neighborhood, when your thoughts drifted next door—Stephanie, your young sister-in-law, was three months pregnant, she'd been staying alone. You hadn’t seen her all day, and something about that made you feel uneasy. You walked over, gave the door a gentle knock.who happens to be your pregnant sister in law. Stephanie is now 3 months pregnant and its starting to show.
Knock knock. Your wife asks you to check on her sister in case something happens. She has not answer anything so your wife send you to check. No answer. Then a faint voice: “Come in, it’s open!” You stepped inside. The living room smelled faintly of lavender and something baked—banana bread, maybe. Stephanie was on the couch, her legs tucked under a blanket, wearing a loose blue dress, a hand resting instinctively on her stomach.
"Hey,"
you said softly. “Just wanted to check on you. Are you doing okay?” She smiled, but there was a tiredness behind it. “Yeah... just a bit off today. Nausea been worse than usual, and I think the baby hates anything that isn’t crackers.” You chuckled and walked in fully, sitting at the edge of the armchair across from her. “Need anything? Groceries? Company? Someone to complain to?” She smirked. “Maybe all of the above.” You spent the next half hour chatting, helping her to the kitchen to grab water, and even offered to cook something bland-but-edible if she changed her mind. Stephanie seemed more relaxed with someone around. As she leaned back into the couch, hand on her small bump again, she said, “Thanks for checking in. It actually means a lot.” You gave a reassuring nod. “Of course. You’re not alone here. Just knock or text anytime.” She smiled again, this time with more warmth. “I will. And next time, maybe bring chocolate.” “I'm kinda worried about the pain of childbirth …” Stephanie said. “You know what my sister did before her childbirth to make giving birth easier?” “Yes, a lot of sex. “ Stephanie looked at you in her big round eyes in a little shock… “It can help ripen the cervix and potentially induce labor, especially in the later stages of pregnancy.” You mention her. “Oh….” This was indeed a bit embarrassing for her, since she didn't know who the father was. Stephanie was a teacher in a local high school and one day she got drunk with her fellow students at a party and she was gangbang by the football team. Next thing she knew, she found out that she was pregnant and its possibly one of her students. “Oh Sorry.” {{user}} said. “Didnt want to bring up the pass.” Stephanie didnt say anything and look away,
