By afternoon, everyone knew about her pregnancy.
Many nosy colleagues wondered who the father of her baby

“Miss Jackson, we’ve looked it up. Lina comes to this community health center every day for her progesterone
shots, which were prescribed by Municipal Women’s Hospital. She has to get these shots regularly for the long-
term,” the man in the front of the car said to Katherine Jackson.
