The Seed She Chose

"After my hundredth disastrous blind date, my best friend and I made a bold decision: we would have children without husbands.She chose sperm from a brilliant PhD donor.I chose a donor with an eight-nation mixed heritage.Later, the PhD donor from Kingsford University was diagnosed with low sperm motility and decided he wanted to marry my friend, Melissa Shaw. She agreed.Whenever she saw me going to my prenatal checkups alone, Melissa would wrap her arm around her husband and mock me."You're destined to be alone," she sneered. "You can't even find a man to marry you. My husband just launched a major national research project. His future is limitless."What she did not know was that the father of my child was the Prince of Dubaria. He took me back to his country and made me his princess. The jewels I wore were so heavy they practically weighed me down.However, after she saw the yacht I posted on social media, Melissa suddenly called me in tears."I don't know what happened," she sobbed. "My husband's project was suddenly suspended. We can barely afford baby formula for our child."She said she wanted to make up and even asked if I would be her child’s godmother.However, the moment I stepped through her door, she raised a chainsaw and hacked me to death."Why do you get to live a better life than me?" she screamed. "Just because you chose better sperm?!"When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day my best friend and I first decided to have children without husbands."
