I Caused My Brother’s Wife’s Miscarriage

My friend had to go on a business trip and insisted that I take his wife for her prenatal check-up.

As she was getting out of the car, his wife slipped and nearly fell. In the moment, I quickly reached out to steady her.

But just a few days later, my friend showed up at my house, furious:

“You’re the one who killed my child! How are you going to make up for this?”

“My wife told me everything—you weren’t paying attention, and the car wasn’t even fully stopped. How could she have had a miscarriage otherwise?”
