Kathleen scolded Lauren whose reflection she had seen from the mirror as she tried to sneak into the room.

It's been over a year since their wedding and everyone had been busy preparing for Shawn and Kathleen's baby shower which was today and yet her supposed best friend chose a few minutes to the ceremony to finally show up.

"Are you still my best friend? Infact, I'm seriously considering giving that title to someone else," Kathleen threatened.

"No, no, no, you can't," Lauren pleaded.

"I'm just coming back from prison," she explained.

Kathleen's angry expression was instantly replaced with concern as she turned around to face Lauren. "Prison?! Were you in jail? Who did you kill?"

"What are you thinking, dumbass?" Lauren smacked Kathleen's hands that had started examining her body. "Does pregnancy really make one this screwed up?" Lauren asked in fear.
