Chapter Thirty-Three.
I WINCED OUT in pain as I stood up from my seat, I have never experienced this type of pain before. I held onto my stomach as Priya stared at me with a concerned look on her face.
"Kehlani, are you okay," Priya quickly got up from her seat to come and comfort me. "Is everything okay, what's wrong?"
"I don't know, Priya," I cried out. "I think something is wrong with the baby."
Priya quickly grabbed the car keys and wrapped my arms around her neck as she helped my hunched-over body to the front seat of the car.
"Everything is going to be okay, Kehlani," Priya rubbed my back.
This type of pain was unbearable. I just knew something was wrong. It didn't feel right.

I laid down on the hospital bed while the doctor did an ultrasound on my stomach. The doctor didn't say much but continued looking at the screen. "Is everything alright?" I stared at her and she tried her best to not present a worried look on her face.
"So..." The doctor took a deep breath before staring at me. I looked at Priya and then back at the doctor.
"Please, don't tell me what I think you're about to tell me," I just knew something didn't feel right...I just knew it.
"I'm sorry, but there's no heartbeat," The doctor stared into my eyes. My heart was pounding so hard it felt like someone had hit me in the chest with a bat. I put my hand over my mouth trying to stop myself from screaming.
It was just those four words that changed me. When you start to acknowledge and dream about what something would be like and it's taken from you in the blink of an eye. It hurts...It hurts bad.
"Can you look again?" Priya was in denial just like I was. Denial is the way people handle what they cannot handle. I don't want to think that anything the doctor is telling me right now is true.
The doctor tried to keep her voice calm and soothing."I would like to run some blood test just so I can be certain what is happening here."
"Okay."

The doctor came back into the room holding onto her clipboard. "I'm sorry but while running some tests we noticed that your hCG levels are slightly below normal," The doctor took another look at the chart on her clipboard. "It seems that your hCG levels are now at a 1.4."
"What does that mean?" I asked.
"I'm sorry to tell you this but you're having a miscarriage," The doctor answered.
