There was a strange feeling that crawled inside my stomach, I didn't know if I was sick, tired, ate too much or what else.
I wasn't getting my period, when the time come they didn't even show up since then it's been two months and this never happened to me before. My last one was on early May, and since then I still hadn't gotten a real, natural period. I had a few friends who waited months to get their periods so I just assumed my menstrual cycle will come one day. This month skip is due to the stress or because of the exhaustion.
Besides that, I have carved for a lot different seasonal foods, fruits and sweets it was like I had a monster inside me that needed to feed itself, because of my carving I have gotten chubbier than I actually was before.
Within days, I vomited a lot. It was unusual, for the reason that I barely vomited in my life. I don't understand what is happening to me, why am I like this. What is this feeling?
I talked to Daniel about this and he said that he doesn't know either and he can do nothing about this matter, he recommended me to go together to a doctor he knows and maybe I will get better.
I forgot the problem for an instance and as I was watching MTV, on the scene came a pregnant teen. That's where I thought hey, maybe I'm pregnant too and that is possible because that day, we were so distracted that we didn't use protection.
Now everything made sense, I was freaking out, feeling different emotions inside. I am not sure about the baby, can I raise it... What will my parents say about this when they will find out? I had so many questions going through my mind.
But I know what the best choice was right now; I put out my phone and called Daniel.
''Hi, Daniel. Come quickly and pick me up we need to go to a hospital.'''
-''Why Doll Face?''
''No more questions Dan. Come!''
-''Okay, I will be there for a couple minutes. Wait for me at the front door.''
I ended the phone call; I took my health history and put it on my handbag and stormed downstairs. My mum saw that and shouted after me
*''Where are you going darling?''
''Mum I will tell you later.''
*''Ok, take care of yourself.''
''I will, even if I don't want'' Yeah now I will have to take care of another soul that was inside my stomach, I can't believe it I'm pregnant, soon I will become a mother. I am so happy, one day I'm going to be called mum.
While I was imagining about my baby's future, Daniel came and whistled for me to go and climb the motorcycle.
He stayed quiet until we arrived at the front of the hospital.
-''Can you tell me now what's happening?''
''Daniel....''
-''Yeah Angel?''
''I think I am pregnant'' he opened his eyes, taken back from the surprise.
-''Are you really?'' he shouted.
''I don't know yet, here we are to confirm that.''
-''Oh my God Carly, if it's real I am going to become the luckiest man alive.''
''Wait, what?''
-''What?''
''You are going to accept the baby, you don't want me to abort?'' I said shocked at his behavior.
-''Of course I will accept, it's the best gift ever created. Yeah I might be astonished but I thought about this, long time ago and I reconsidered the fact that it might happen.''
''Woah Daniel babe, I'm really happy at this. Now let's go, the doctor is waiting for us.''
-''Okay let's go'' Daniel said walking in front of me, looking for the doctors room.
When he found the room he let me go in first but he kissed me overpoweringly with his soft lips, in the end he licked my down lip and later he bites it gently yet hard.
On enormous black leather chair with legs sprayed over the desk was sitting a young man on his mid thirties, he had black hair and a pair of light brown eyes. He was playing with a pen on his mouth meanwhile he was distracted by reading a paper. When he saw me he shook his head, laughing at his absurdity his pen fell. Which made it even more awkward and funny; His cheeks formed a slight blush giving me a nice, warm smile.
''Hello, doctor'' I smiled back at him.
*''Hello Miss, what is the problem?'' said the Doctor.
''Well, umm I don't know how to say this...'' I froze; I didn't know what to say in this moment, nothing came up on my mind.
-''She is suspicious about the pregnancy'' Daniel said, helping me continue the sentence.
*''Oh, so that's how it is. Did you toke the pregnancy test?''
''No I didn't. I came here to know it better and to be more secure.''
*''You have made a good choice Miss. Now go to the bed and sit down, I will take a blood sample to test if you are pregnant or not.''
-''When will the results be out?'' Daniel said.
*''They will be out in an hour.''
He grabbed my elbow with one hand and with the other one he touched it, looking for a vein. When the Doctor found it he put a tight band around my upper arm and then cleaned the skin over the vein. He inserted the needle connected to a syringe without hesitation causing me a light pain. I was dizzy at first but it went away. When the required amount of blood was taken, he removed the needle, leaving me a small wound from it. Later he pressed on with cotton wool for a few minutes to stop the blood and then he put a plaster on my wound.
-''Carly, we can go wait outside.''
*''Ah, ah. She can't go yet, I must consult her first'' I realized that it was about the questions that he asks all the pregnant woman about their health and stuff like that, that was why I took my small health history because it's needed.
*''Now Carly you are going to answer to my questions'' he continued.
''Okay.''
*''Are your menstrual cycles regular and how long they tend to last?''
''They are always on time, they last about six days and less.''
*''When was the first day of your last period?''
''Um it was on third May.''
*''From this we know that the fetus might be two months old. I'm impressed how you didn't notice it earlier.''
''Same thing here.'' I replied sarcastically.
Later he asked me many other questions like did I have Psychiatric problems, about my past surgeries or hospitalizations, did I smoke, drink, used drugs during the pregnancy, whether any of my relatives have had any chronic or serious diseases, on that discussion Daniel bumped in and told the doctor about his sister.
The doctor said that is still early for that, we will see after I fulfill six months. He will look the baby with ultrasound to know what gender it is and does it have any appearing problems.
*''That is all for today Miss. I wish you two good luck with this, I am sure you will be good parents.''
''Thank you Doctor'' Daniel and I said in sync.
*''You will have to visit me weekly or monthly to check up if there are any problems with the baby.''
''Okay I will come. Thank you once again, bye.''
With that, we left and headed to a café to wait for the results, it had twenty minutes left and we would find if I am really pregnant or what. Ah, I'm filled with random emotions I can't wait for the laboratory results. What will they be...
Daniel on the other hand was as excited as I am, he couldn't prevent himself from talking about the baby and our future together and how would we live and marry each other.
After we drank the Cola's we went inside the Hospital and headed to where the results would be.
The medicinal sister gave to me a red envelope; my hands started shaking from the adrenaline I was facing. I gave it immediately to Daniel and said him to read it.
He took it and opened it slowly, discovering a white paper. Then he started reading it, he furrowed and looked at me.
-''Carly...''
''Yeah bae?'' my heart started beating like a crazy monkey in a cage; I was dying inside from the curiosity. And in the other hand his expression was not what I had expected, telling me that I was not pregnant and this is all made up story coming from me.
-''We are going to have a baby!'' he screamed in happiness, Daniel grabbed me and started dancing, showing of his wild steps in the large hall, singing around.
My heart stopped, a tear escaped my eyes but it was wiped by Daniel. I was crying from the joy, a unfolding feeling ruled over all my body and soul. It was a moment that I was never going to forget and treasure it for decades, getting the news that I was pregnant.
