"Oh my God, I can't believe this!"

"What's the matter, sis?"

"How could this happen to me?!"

"It was inevitable, can't you see?"

"Of all times, why now?!"

"Stacy, sweetie, can't you see how?"

"Tina, you deserve all of the blame!"

"Even now, you still have no shame."

"How could this happen to a mother?"

"Sis, the baby belongs to another."

"I made sure to do everything right."

"And yet, your darkness came out to the light."

"I just wanted a baby of my own."

"I know, sis; being barren made you moan."

"What did I do that was so cruel?"

"Simple: you took my baby and drowned me in the pool."
