––––––––

Deonna paced the floor outside of Mr. Alexander’s office while she waited for him. Mr. Alexander, or Warren as he liked her to call him, had called her at midnight saying that he needed to talk to her first thing in the morning. She hadn’t slept at all last night after his phone call and now she couldn’t sit still. She sighed and looked at the clock on her desk. 7:45 am. The suspense was killing her. Deonna sat down at her desk, laid her head down on it and groaned loudly.

Warren stepped off the elevator and looked over to Deonna’s desk. She had her head on her desk,  was probably exhausted, but he had to call her as soon as he and his wife decided that she would be their surrogate mother. The poor girl must have stayed up all night worrying about her job. He wished he had been more considerate when he’d called her, but the past couldn’t be changed and today was a new day. He hated to wake her but prolonging this conversation would do nothing but make it harder.

Ms. York, Could I please see you in my office? Warren said as he walked past her desk.

Opening the doors to his office, he waited for her to walk in and take a seat before entering himself and closing the door. He gathered his thoughts as he walked to his desk.

Ms. York, I know you’re probably wondering what I called you here for this morning. I would like to say first and foremost that you are not losing your job. You are an irreplaceable part of my daily life and it would take months to teach someone to fill your position. As you well know, my wife and I have been having problems conceiving children. We have recently found out that Jackie is infertile. Last night my wife and I decided that we would like to use a surrogate to carry our child. Pausing to take a breath and allow Deonna to digest this information, Warren sat in his chair and opened his brief case.

We have been over all the risks with our doctor as well as our lawyer and planned on offering the woman we had first chosen to carry our child a half million dollars; however at the last minute she decided that she would not like to be a surrogate for us. So last night Jackie and I chose someone else to fill her place that we both felt met all of our requirements. We also decided that $500,000 was not enough compensation for this person because she would have the tasks  of not only carrying and giving birth to child,  but also she would have to deal with our demands. I am telling you all of this because last night my wife and I chose you to be our surrogate mother.

Warren worried that Deonna would pass out from shock. She hadn’t said anything since he  announced that Jackie and he had decided to use her as their surrogate. Warren watched the emotions play across her face. Fear was quickly replaced by shock, followed by confusion, then back to fear.

Ms. York, please say something." Warren whispered when she still hadn’t responded with words.

Mr. Alexander, I don’t know how to respond to this. Could I please have a couple of minutes to digest all this information? Deonna whispered as she got up and made her way to the door.

Without looking back, she calmly opened the door and walked to her desk and sat down. Deonna was officially in shock; Warren Alexander was her boss of two and a half years. During that time she had developed a huge crush on him and now he wanted her to have his baby. This was just too much for her to handle; she needed advice and she needed it now.

She emailed her best friend and lawyer, Kathryn.

Hi Kathy,

Umm, are you free for lunch because I think I’m having one of those nervous breakdowns you’re always telling me about?

Love,

Dee

No sooner did she hit the send button did she get a reply.

Hey Dee,

Do you need me as a lawyer or as a best friend, because if it can’t wait then I think you might need to stop by my office like now?

Love,

Kathy

Deonna looked at her watch and then at Warren’s door. She hit the button on the intercom.

Yes,  Ms. York? Warren’s smooth deep voice whispered back.

Would it be OK if I took an early lunch? Deonna squeaked back at him.

Why don’t you take the day off and think about what we talked about in my office this morning, Warren replied.

Deonna grabbed her keys and purse and left the office. The three-minute  ride down to the lobby of the building seemed to take forever. The plus side was that Kathy’s office was right across the courtyard from her building.

Deonna went into the building and walked the two flights of steps to Kathy’s floor. The long hallway gave her plenty of time to think over  how she would tell Kathy about Warren and Jackie’s plan. She was just three doors away when her phone went off in her purse.

She looked at the phone and saw that she had received a text from her boss.

Could you please stop by my home once you have made a decision? Thank you.

Deonna slid the phone back into her purse and continued walking to Kathy’s office. Once she walked through the double doors of the Waller and Waller law firm, she was greeted by Stephanie, Kathy’s assistant.

Stephanie escorted Deonna into Kathy’s office and closed the door as she left.

He wants me to be a surrogate mother for him and his wife, Deonna blurted out as soon as the door closed.

Who wants you to be a surrogate? Kathy asked while staring at Deonna.  Better yet, why don’t you start at the beginning so I can catch up to you on this one.

Deonna flopped down into the chair and proceeded to relay all the information that she had been given to her
