"James, what do you think?" Melody Yoody held James Brown's hand. For her, the family's decision wasn't a bad thing. She could finally be with James Brown, and no one would stop them anymore. Besides, James Brown was already married. Being with him wasn't proper, and having a child would only make things more complicated for both of them. It would be better to not have the child and relieve them both.
James Brown firmly grasped Melody Yoody's hand and said, "Melody, I only ask you, do you like children?"
Melody Yoody hesitated for a moment and said, "I can't say for sure."
"Then let me ask you again: if you choose not to have this child now and later can't have children for the rest of your life, in ten or twenty years, when you have no children to dote on, will you regret it?"
