You've always wondered what people mean when they say, "it was just once," when confronted with pregnancy.
Now you are faced with the same conundrum. The thing is that it was also that once that brought you here. And she had even taken a pill afterwards.
Not only was she pregnant, neither of you knew how to get rid of it. She could not keep it, she told you. You'd googled and come up with some drugs that would do the trick. Problem was you needed a prescription to get them. Two days of visiting pharmacies only reinforced that fact.
Now you are worried. Not for you: you don't mind a child and you love her enough to want to settle down with her. Your concern is what she's going to do if this long drive to see one Dr. Kaey does not pan out.
You are negotiating a bend when she speaks,
"It was just a test; to check your reaction."
"What?!"
You take your eye off the road for a minute to stare at her, incredulous.
"Watch out."
The scream is followed by a crash, then nothingness.
