FALLOUT FROM JAEGER



“How’d you feel about being a daddy?”

“A what?’

“A dad. You know, a father.”

“Are you trying to tell me something?”

“Yep. Ten weeks.”

“You’ve known for ten weeks?”

“No. I’m ten weeks pregnant.”

“How long have you known?”

“Only since last week.”

“You’ve known that long? Why didn’t you…”

“You were on tour.”

“Oh my god! We’re having a baby.”

“Looks that way…”

“But I don’t want to have a baby.”

“I’m not exactly ready either!”

“Only ten weeks, right? You could still….”

“If I wanted to. But I don’t.”

“Why not?”

“I’m thirty-one, dude. I’m not unhappy about it.”

“What if I’m unhappy?”

“I was pretty freaked out to begin with too!”

“You’re on the pill. How’d it happen?”

“The usual way. The pill’s not infallible.”

“You didn’t do it on purpose did you?”

“What?”

“Stop taking the birth control?”

“No! Of course not!”

“I’m not mad. Just….scared.”

“I know. But we’ve talked about it.”

“Talking about kids is different to having them.”

“You said you’d have kids with me.”

“I didn’t think you’d get pregnant…”

“So quickly, right?”

“You’ve only been back, what?”

“Ten weeks.”

“You mean…”

“That night.”

“The Jaeger?”

“That’s when it happened.”

“Jesus!”
