After my husband drove his female friend home, I decided to leave him and raise the child on my own. His female friend got drunk and revealed a secret she had been keeping.
"Sis, let me tell you something. Back when you were newly pregnant, I helped Haochen take care of his physical needs."
The whole room erupted.
I clutched my aching belly, my heart sour with hurt.
She seemed to sober up all at once, then said dismissively:
"We were just helping each other out as friends. Don't take it to heart, Sis. It only happened once!"
"Don't mention it, Sis. If he weren't my friend, I never would have helped him!"
