"It's fine, it's fine, it's fine" I thought in my head even though i knew it was not.
"It was probably the burritos we ate last night" Joe suggested
"Yeah, yeah, just the burritos" i said fast.
I flushed the toilet and sat down.
It was just the delicious meal, YOU ARE NOT PREGNANT, YOU ARE NOT PREGNANT CORA. I thought to myself.
"Let's just go buy a pregnancy test from the store Cora" he said
"I don't know what to do" I said back
"Come on I can't deal with the suspense Cora" Joe said
"Fine" I said shaking
As we got into the cab to take us to the shops a whole range of extremely weird thoughts popped into my head. "What are you going to name it?" "Where will it live, Sydney or London." And then they got weirder.- "OMG what if I am actually pregnant, there might be another little human pooping inside of me" "what if it is like a brand new gender, the first of it's kind."
We then arrived and I got out. Joe paid and we walked in.
"Are you ready," Joe asked
"No, but I will never be, Let's do it" I replied
I was definitely nervous. I pushed to open the door instead of pulled, but I usually do that (I fail) but anyway, we walked in and bought one off the shelf.
I went into the ladies bathroom and peed on the stick. Joe waited outside the cubicle and read me the instructions. He probably got a lot of weird looks for begin in the women's but it was important. The 3 minutes wait time felt like 3 years but I waited it out
"one line" I yelled to Joe.
He hugged me and said "phew, that was a close call. I threw the instructions and the rest in the bin and walked out holding my boyfriend (and not baby daddy's) hand. Even though I was relieved to not be pregnant I was still a little bit disappointed.
