"Oh, oh, oh." Tassie gasped and sat up in bed, clutching at her stomach. Immediately, Cal sprung bolt upright as well.

"What is it, Tassie? Is it time?"

She'd sort of hoped that the women sharing their tales with her were exaggerating for effect, but as she moaned and shifted on the bed, she realized they had not.
