Chapter 13: Night Feeds
Oscar walked out without signing.
On Tuesday he went to a lab on Charles Street and gave his DNA sample with a notary watching.
He emailed me the receipt that night. No message. Just the receipt.
I printed it and put it under BABY.
May came in warm and I stopped knowing what day it was.
My daughter ate every two hours, around the clock.
Trish's son started calling her Bean, because she was the size of one when he first saw her.
It stuck. By the end of the week even the bakery lady called her Bean.
At three in the morning I'd sit in the rocker and feed her and talk to her in a whisper.
I told her about the cow on the ceiling. I told her about the binder.
She didn't care. She ate.
One night the diapers ran out at two forty.
I texted Andrew, because I'm a coward and I didn't want to call.
Do you have any diapers downstairs.
He wrote back almost immediately.
Newborn or size one.
Newborn. Why are you awake.
On call. Why are you awake.
Guess.
Four minutes later he was at my door in a gray T-shirt and pajama pants, holding a pack of newborn diapers and a cinnamon roll.
