When do you get off work? I need help.
ANA
What’s going on? I thought you were at the fire department fundraiser.
LIBBY
We were. I’m at Melody’s now. She’s sick in the bathroom right now.
ANA
Oh, no. Does she need Gatorade? Pepto?
Is it the flu? Food poisoning?
LIBBY
I think she needs a pregnancy test. She seemed fine, physically, when we got in her truck, but then she took a drink of coffee and immediately threw it back up.
ANA
PREGNANCY TEST?!?!?!?!
LIBBY
Does she ever get sick to the point where she throws up?
Besides on carnival rides?
Because I’ve never seen her sick like that. And she seemed really fine before we got into the truck.
Pissed at Tony about something, but being pissed won’t make someone throw up.
At least, not Melody.
ANA
No. She’s never been sick like that unless she’s SUPER sick.
Like with food poisoning.
I get off in fifteen minutes.
…
Are you sure she needs a pregnancy test?
LIBBY
Better to be sure she’s not, right?
ANA
Right.
LIBBY
Also, you might want to get over here ASAP when you get off work.
