Someone knocks on the door, and a doctor comes in. His face is cold. He greets me, happy to see me awake. Yet, I can tell something is wrong…
“So, what’s the news doctor?” Austin asks worried.
The doctor explains that the results are encouraging. I’ll just have to stay in bed for a couple of days, under observation. He tells us that I was fortunate. The reinforced security helped take the blow, as well as the anti-accident equipment.
Austin’s face lightens up a little more as the doctor lists all of the positive aspects. I squeeze his hand, thrilled. The doctor nods and pauses. “Is there something else, doctor? You seem a little troubled by something…” I ask.
“We’re going to have to run some more tests. Your life isn’t in danger, but nothing’s certain concerning your child.”
