Chapter 11: Jack's Picture
Brittany rocked in her chair, moaning.
Lorna had her arm around her.
Neil stood over the table, pointing at me.
"Somebody call an ambulance! She poisoned her!"
I didn't move.
"I can call one," I said. "They'll do an ultrasound at the hospital. Right away. To check on the baby."
Brittany stopped rocking.
Just for a second.
Then she moaned louder.
"I don't need a hospital. I need to get away from her."
"You just said something was wrong."
"I'll go to my own doctor."
"Which one?" Katie asked.
She'd come out from the kitchen.
She was still wearing her apron.
She walked straight through the dining room to the middle table.
The whole room watched her come.
"Which doctor, Brittany?" Katie said. "Is it Lakeview Women's? On Belmont? The one with the little green leaf?"
Brittany looked up.
Something moved behind her wet eyes.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
Katie reached into her apron pocket.
She took out a folded square of paper.
She'd printed it at the FedEx on Halsted that morning.
She unfolded it and laid it on the table beside the duck.
A black-and-white ultrasound.
Across the top, uncropped, the clinic logo shaped like a leaf.
