EPILOGUE

By morning, Dorothy had dragged Norman into the work bay.

"Are you sure you need an 'exam', Mistress Dorothy?" Norman asked. "You had one not too long ago."

"Norman, please," she said as she pulled her dress off. "I need this."

She had been startled to find herself wide awake at four in the morning and consuming a mass quantity of meat as well as finishing it off with the entire jug of milk and the very-expensive fruit.

She had to get Norman's confirmation to be able to explain why her bioconverter system was on overdrive, or else there would be a few very upset men in the house. After all, she did not normally eat much save for some rice and bread (Norman had known for a long time the carbohydrates were part of her energy source) and her eating anything else was alien.

He pulled his apron on. "Shall I run the diagnostic first or - "

"Physical," she answered as she lay down on the work bench.

A few minutes later, Norman was cursing in languages he never was aware he knew and making oaths to Gods that no one had ever heard of. Very loudly.

Roger ran into the work bay. "What's wrong?!" he demanded. He was still in pajamas and robe, his hair a mess. He gazed at his naked wife on the workbench and Norman with a shocked expression on his face.

Roger pulled himself together. "What's going on?"

Norman, slightly dazed, did not respond.

Dorothy hopped down from the work bench and threw her arms around her husband's neck.

"Roger-darling, I'm pregnant! Isn't this incredible??"

"Huh??" he asked.

"I'm pregnant with your child!"

"HUH?!" he repeated.

She sighed and stated, "You knocked me up, you thick lump."

Roger began babbling incoherently.

We Have Come to Terms
