Harry St Clair: Rogue Or Doctor? - Plot & Excerpts
CHAPTER FOUR JUDGING from the changing expressions on the young woman’s face, Bonnie doubted these pains would go away. Bonnie waited for the strain to ease from Mardi’s face again. Pretty decent contraction, she thought. When it had gone she said, ‘Maybe she or he has decided to come today.’ Mardi looked down at the brown dust beneath her feet. ‘Not today. My husband is away working to save money. We cannot afford the midwife yet.’ Bonnie wasn’t sure how that worked when nature didn’t play the game. ‘What about the hospital?’ Calmly Mardi shook her head and her thick black hair barely moved in the coiled bun. ‘The hospital costs are even greater.’ She grimaced again and Bonnie frowned. ‘Looks like labour to me,’ Bonnie muttered under her breath. She’d seen quite a few. ‘Have the pains been this close and strong before?’ Mardi shook her head and this time Bonnie saw the start of the glint of tears in her beautiful brown eyes. ‘Perhaps I am a little fearful.’ Fear was the last thing a woman in labour needed.
