Fiona's Bargain with God
from When I Was a Girl, I Used to Scream and Shout
Written by Sharman Macdonald
Fiona desperately bargains with God to avoid an unwanted pregnancy after a sexual encounter with Ewan. She lists the potential collateral damage to her family and her future while recounting a recent good deed as leverage.
FIONA: Listen, will you. If I'm pregnant it'll ruin four people's lives. Five. Right? My Mum'll be disappointed and her man'll walk out on her. That's two. Are you with me, God? I'll not be very happy. My mother'll hate me for the rest of my life for what I've done and that's not easy to live with.
