Read the full story to know more.. ‐------------------------------------- “Oh baby! You have no idea how badly I want to take you up in my room and devore your beautiful body?” My hands stopped wiping the floor and my head instantly snapped up to my mate, whose face is now buried in that girl’s neck. Their bodies were too close to my comfort. What did he just say? Did he just offer her to have s*x? Can’t he see me standing here? Am I that invisible to him that he is offering another girl to sleep with him right in front of me? I felt a part of my heart breaking at his words. I know I insisted him to not get physical with me until we make our relationship official, but it doesn’t mean he is allowed to do that with someone else. I am still his mate no matter what position our relationship is in. I can see their actions moving towards the direction of the bedroom and I have to stop them before they cross their limits. But how? Suddenly, an idea came into my head. I know this is going to earn me some harsh punishment, but at least I will keep my mate out of that girl’s body this way. With this thought, I picked up the bucket filled with dirty water and pretended to slip right in front of them, pouring all the water right on top of that girl’s head. “What the f*ck? You bi*ch. What did you do? Ewe.. This is no nasty. I have to take a shower right now. I’m leaving. But I will see you later for this.” My plan was a success. She ran out of there as fast as she can to clean herself and there was finally a satisfied smile on my face in joy. “Mila? Why did you do that? I know you did that on purpose.” My smile vanished when I hear Ralph’s angry voice for me. “I have something important to discuss with you. Please meet me at the garden tonight. I will be waiting.” Saying this, I started cleaning the excess water of the floor by myself. I wanted to talk to him right now, but we can’t afford to get caught. So I offered him to meet me later. He didn’t say anything further and went to his room angrily. Oh goddess. Why did I get such a mate who doesn’t understand me?

Nearly 20% of all pregnancies in the U.S. end in miscarriage or stillbirth. Yet pregnancy loss is seldom acknowledged and rarely discussed. Opening the topic to a thoughtful and informed discussion, Linda Layne takes a historical look at pregnancy loss in America, reproductive technologies and the cultural responses surrounding miscarriage. Examining both support groups and the rituals they create to help couples through loss, her analysis offers valuable insight on how material culture contributes to conceptions of personhood. A fascinating examination, Motherhood Lost is also a provocative challenge to feminists and other activists to increase awareness and provide necessary support for this often hidden but critically important topic.
