Some more months went by and now we were on New Year's Eve, we were so excited as it was our first new year together as a couple, Jenna wasn't feeling really good but she tried her best to stay awake until midnight.
Next day, she told me her stomach was hurting so much so we went to the doctor, the doctor, after examining her, told us she was 4-month-pregnant.
There was a long silence after the affirmation. Jenna looked at the floor, upset, as if she knew that meant she had cheated on me with some man. Because if you know the basic from human anatomy you know that two women can't conceive a baby naturally.
During the drive home, the silence between us was very intense. We didn't talk at all.
When we got home she looked at me as if wanting to explain to me what happened, but instead she said: - well, it can be a mistake, you know sometimes there are fake pregnancies which end up in nothing... but she knew that was not true at all. The symptoms, the medical examinations, her belly getting slightly bigger... it all made sense to everyone, despite from her of course. I guess she knew it was true but didn't want to believe it.
I avoided the argument and decided to go for a walk to get distracted from all the mess and chaos waiting for me at home.
When I came back, the conversation couldn't be avoided anymore, so I started speaking:
-Well, I guess there's something you haven't told me about this "fake baby" even though we all know it's a real pregnancy- I said, in a high tone.
-How dare you!- she said, very mad.
I haven't slept with anyone else than you if that's what you suggest- she said, very angry.
- What do you mean you haven't slept with anyone? Of course you have, where does the pregnancy come from then? It appears magically? For the love of god Jenna you are acting like a kid denying the undeniable! -I exclaimed, shouting at her desperately.
-I can't be pregnant... don't shout at me that way Amanda! - she said, shouting too.
-Of course you are, you can't deny it anymore please! - I exclaimed, now so mad
-Ok then, I think there's no easy way to say this but...- she said, finally admitting something.
-Tell it once and at all for the love of god, just tell me who did you hook up with, now!- I said intrigued.
-Well... It didn't mean anything but...
