Where their heart is by Billy Letts, Novely Nation. 17, 7 months pregnant, £37 overweight and superstitious. About sevens shifted uncomfortably in the seat of the old Plymouth and ran her hands down the curve of her belly. For most people. Sevens were lucky but not for her. She'd had a bad history with him starting with her seventh birthday the day mom and Neil ran away with the baseball umpire named Fred. Then when no was in the seventh grade, Rhoda. Thy stole an ice cream truck for her boyfriend and sent and was sent to the Tennessee State school for girls. And by then, Nole knew there was something screwy about sevens. So she tried to stay clear of them, but sometimes she thought you just can't see things coming at you and that's how she got stabbed. She just didn't see it coming. It happened right after she dropped out of school and started waiting tables at Red's a job that didn't have anything to do with sevens.
