I woke up the following morning with a sense of dread in my stomach.

Despite Enzo's words of encouragement, the memory of the previous yoga class were still fresh in my mind. The hurtful words, the mocking glances they had left a deeper mark than I cared to admit. I guess I had thought that, at this point in my life, the mean girl behavior would have been a thing of the past.

Enzo had looked at me then, and the fire in his eyes had lingered. "Fine. But don't let girls like that stop you from taking care of your health, Nina. This is for your baby. For our baby."
