Hisako held Megan’s hair back and made soothing noises as the girl retched and shuddered, clutching the sides of the toilet bowl. She hiccupped and moaned, and Hisako handed her a glass of water. “It’s okay, it’s okay…”
“S’not,” Megan moaned. “S’not okay. What’s wrong with me?”
“I don’t know, sweetie. I’m sure it’s nothing. Like, the stomach flu or something.”
“Megan made a noise like a choked off sob and shook her head. “I know what’s going on. I took Health Class,” she whimpered. “Oh God what am I gonna do?”
“Have you, uh, told Nezhno?” Hisako asked tentatively. Megan looked up at her roommate and burst into tears. “Oh honey it’s gonna be alright. Have you even taken a pregnancy test yet?”
Megan shook her head with a miserable little sniffle.
“Maybe you should before you decide your life is over?”

“Is what Santo said true?” Nezhno asked, seeming to shrink in on himself as Ororo watched him. He couldn’t bring himself to meet her eyes. “About Megan?”
“I don’t know,” she said. “A lot of rumors have been flying around lately. If it is true, I’m sure she’ll tell you.”
Nezhno slumped down more. “She’s been avoiding me since…” He shrugged, making a face.
“Ah.” Ororo nodded sagely. “It’s going to be alright, Nezhno. Whatever is going on, it’s not the end of the world.”
“I am not so sure,” he murmured back.
