Her Precious Heart

There for you

Busy playing with her fingers, Hazel can't seem to relax on her sit while waiting for the ob-gyne. She's nervous as it was her first time going into this kind of check-up. Zavier saw it and sighed, he wants to subside the worried, nervous inside her but he couldn't do anything but to just hold her hand and tap his thumb at the back of her palm.

Seeing his smile gives Hazel an assurance that everything is alright but she just can't help but be worried. "Can you buy me ice cream?" In the middle of waiting, she would ask that?

Zavier looks at her, slowly narrowing his eyes. Hazel pouted, knowing what's behind that expression in his eyes. "I am nervous, you know me, I only like to eat ice cream to lower my nervousness."

"Later, after the check-up. Let's wait for the doctor's word first." Helpless, Hazel nodded. She knows when Zavier was talking with his nonchalant voice, her cuteness won't attract him.

"Gosh, I want to go home now. The hospital smell is making me vomit again." When she said that, she really means it. Her stomach can't stop twirling that it made her attempt to vomit. The first she moved forward, Zavier stands up quickly taking a plastic from his back which has her things. 

He had expected that something might gonna happen like this. 

"It's okay," he said, tapping her back. By the aura of her, she seems to be stopping herself from vomiting.

"It hurts,"

"I know, it will gonna hurt more if you didn't take it all out," he answered. His voice is full of concern. "I am here, just vomit." She vomits after he pats her back several times, gently.

"I think I won't be able to do this...?" Cleaning her mouth with a clean towel, she told. Zavier holds the plastic away from her and starts to find a water bottle for her to gurgle.

"We have to do this. This is for you to find if you're okay and also for the baby." He gave her the bottle while she starts to gurgle. "I know it's a new feeling for you but you have to wait for a little minute. We have just to check the baby, okay?"

"Oki," she agreed. With that, the door creaked open, calling the attention of two people waiting inside. The ob-gyne arrived, smiling at them, thinking they were a couple.

"Good morning doc," he greeted. "Can we finish it up as soon as possible? Because she vomits by the smell of the hospital," he told. The doctor looks down at Hazel and nodded.

"I'm so sorry for being late, mommy," she replied. She seated on her swivel chair, across from them. "Okay, so, Mrs..." she went through the paper her assistant passed to her table. Her smile quickly changed into a shocked one. "Are you both not married?"

"Ahh, we're... friends," she replied. The doctor's face turned shocked. 

"Sorry, I thought you both were married," she apologized. Hazel and Zavier both let out a chuckle, awkwardly.

"So, you're pregnant, Ms. Collins?" Hazel nodded. "How many months or weeks did you take a pregnancy test?"

"It's last week, right?" She looks at Zavier, not sure of when she takes the P-test. Zavier nodded.

"Okay, so, mommy, I'll be asking you some questions, is it okay?" Hazel nodded. The doctor smiles and read something on her chart and took some paper. "Since when did you last experience your menstruation?"

"I don't remember but I didn't have my period for these past few weeks," she answered, "before I take the pregnancy test, My breast feels hurt and there's in my underwear..." she talked about all of her concerns and the changes in her body after that night.

"It's normal," the doctor said. "Nothing to be worried of, Ms. Collin." 

"Can we go to the book store?" She looks at her side where the driver's side is. "I would like to buy books about pregnancy and its symptoms," she told. Hazel looks away and sighed. the doctor announced that she was 2 weeks pregnant.

"Yeah, sure," he replied. He continue driving until they reached the mall. "Should I go with you or are you going alone?"

"The answer is obvious, Zavier," she told. He nodded and got the car keys before going outside and Hazel also went out.

"Should we buy the baby's clothes too?" As they both went to the entrance, Hazel's hand make its way to his bicep and wrapped it. 

"No, we still don't know the gender yet," Hazel answers. Zavier nodded.

They stayed at the store for like half in an hour. Hazel was about to buy the whole book that was in the book shelf in that store. She's desperately wanted to know how to raise the child and how to take care of it. It's her first time and she's nervous. She wanted her baby to be alright and have a better future.

"We maybe should buy some decorations for the baby's room?" Hazel looks at Zavier. He keeps on talking about the baby when they still don't know the gender is. "Okay, I stop," he told, surrendering. He saw how Hazel glared at him, already done.

"You're more excited than me, aren't you?" Zavier pouted as they step forward. They were already in the line, ready to pay. 

"Of course I am!" he licks his lips. "Who wouldn't be excited? It's—" he trailed off, "I can now use my knowledge about taking care a new born baby,"

Hearing his words, Hazel's eyes popped up. "You know?" she asks. "You knew how to raise a baby?"

"Yeah," he scratch the back of his neck. "I had a cousin who's also pregnant and my second job was to babysit his baby while they're away..."

"Really?" She jumps a little, excited. "Then will you help me when this child comes out?" As he look into her eyes, they were glistening from joy. Her delicate smile is the sweetest of all. She looks cute when she gets excited.

"Of course, I would love to," he replied and look away. 

He shouldn't be feel this way, not when he was in his job. However, how can he stop himself when this girl standing right next to him is making him flustered? Making his heart beats faster whenever she gets happy or excited. She never knew how her every expression her face would form, the cuteness in them never changes.
