Cortez and Dahlia were in their truck heading to lunch after their prenatal appointment. It was two weeks into August and Dahlia was a little shy of 11 weeks pregnant. Cortez held Dahlia’s hand tightly and couldn’t stop a smile from forming on his lips. They had gotten a chance to see “nuggy”, as they were calling baby Flores, again. Normally there is not a sonogram at every appointment but because Cortez wasn’t at the first appointment Dr. Mained ordered another sonogram. He also wanted to check the baby’s growth due to the fact that Dahlia was given rohypnol. “Good to see you again Ms. Dennis.” Dr. Maine said with a smile as he walked into the room. “Actually,” Dahlia said smiling. “Its Mrs. Flores now.” “I’d like you to meet my husband, Cortez.” Dr. Maine smiled and shook Cortez’s hand.
